guide Skyrim SE for Beginners - V 3.2.6 (Outdated)

[wollboi]

@Thardrim Like Aylis said, it's a conflict with overlays. The same exact thing happens to me. Character goes from dirty to pristine in one second. I just grin and bear it.

Failed to read mod cache file

and now nothing gets ticked. I tried to fix it , but so far I have no idea what is causing it. I have never used Nemesis before.
Installed it via MO2 just like FINS. ?
 

Spoiler

(EDIT: I did read the Instructions)

Spoiler

EDIT: Ignore this. I got a horse brain ?‍♂️?‍♂️?‍♂️. Everything is working now.

[Jessica_Degurechaff]

Ok i only have a single problem now, the ENB GUI (Shift+ F12) its tiny, miniscule, how i can change this? google isnt helping.
 

Spoiler

As a question if i ever want to change an armor or something on Bodyslide do i also need to run Texgen, Dyndolod, AO, terrain and etc?

No right? i mean they have nothing to do with each other but  better safe than sorry.

  No you don't have to run them again.  You where right that bodies and clothing are distinct from landscape/terrain/LODs

Might be 'Windows Shadows' or 'Dynamic Volumetric Lighting and Sun Shadows'. Recheck the group, you got something wrong there. 

 

What should I do?  Reinstall them?  Deactivate them?

I would use the newer ver .84beta:

https://github.com/ShikyoKira/Project-New-Reign---Nemesis-Main/releases

 

When running Nemesis it crashes for me about 7 out of 8 times, then works. I saw some speculation that there has not been as much work on it for a while. And DAR has an animation limit hard coded in that people are hoping will get expanded soon, though DAR has not seen as much work lately, either.

Unfortunately that version just makes everyone T-POSE. which usually happens when you don't run fnis or nemesis. so my guess is the games doesn't recognize the newest nem build. 

[H0rnyH0rse]

Got everything working so far. Thanks for the guide!

 

Spoiler

There is just one thing that I couldn't get to work: More Nasty Critters. Whenever i install that I end up with T-Pose. Could't find a way around it.

If anyone got any ideas I am all ears.
 

[Jessica_Degurechaff]

Does anyone knows why may be causing this colored aura around people when theres weather on the game? RASSmaybe?

Spoiler

(theres also an effect on the camera like rain drops on it, even when theres no particular weather, im sure that one it is RASS, i jsut havent found the proper config)

[arshesney]

It's R.A.S.S. indeed, change the wet option to droplets only in MCM to get rid of the glow. For the camera droplets you can change to subtle to lessen the effect.

The camera effect is likely to break and persist even without rain or snow weather, there's a post in mod's comment that provides a fix, you have to replace the subtle effect with a blank mesh, it will remove the effect (permanently) if it is stuck. You have to place this file in meshes\rass\lenses

Worked like a charm, thank.

its this: 
 

Spoiler

(those are wines btw)
I can live fine with that on my game, not really that important but i would like to fix it.

Will try to reinstall a few mods that i think may be the cause

Ill try that out, but could you point me out exaclty where? theres 2 silverworks things in the list, i believe.

[Jessica_Degurechaff]

If i uninstall a mod like a follower mod do i need to rerun any of the tools?  i do rerun Bodyslide just to get rid of any bloat outfits/body they may leave behind, but besdies that do i need to re run all the tools from the Final?   just making sure-

Have you downloaded FNIS creature pack? If not, install it and run FNIS again.

I ran FINS and Nemesis around a thousand times. Had to figure out wich mod was the problem in the first place.
With MNC deactivated everything runs like a charm. But even with all non essential LL mods deactivated. I can not get MNC to work without T-Pose for everything.

99% of the Problems with this guide is that you are missing something. But in this case I think I might have diffent versions or something.

I currently use pretty much exactly the guide (maybe I am missing something!?):

Try clicking "De-install Creatures" first and then re-run FNIS and Nemesis... Maybe it's that...

 

Oh... no I don't think it is that... I think you got the LE version of MNC. Mine has the sufix -SE at the end of the name.

 

I think you got the version from the page of Creature Framework. Get it form here https://www.loverslab.com/files/file/5464-more-nasty-critters-special-edition/

mind telling me which version of nemesis you used?

 

[H0rnyH0rse]

Downloaded this one: Nemesis.Unlimited.Behavior.Engine.v0.84-beta.rar

You can get it here https://github.com/ShikyoKira/Project-New-Reign---Nemesis-Main/releases

(at the bottom of the release notes there is a small button 'assets', once you click it you will find the downloads)

If you are having problems with animations, maybe it is because of the comlicated way you got to use nemesis and Fins. Aylis describes this in detail in the third post of this thread. (also: if you disable and reable a mod the plugins are set to be the last in MO2. Maybe you just have to move them back, that worked for me)

Hope I could be of help.

I have little experience with modding, so take this with a grain of salt.
That said my understanding is the following.

You have Tools that generate your animation registry (FINS and Nemesis)
You have tools that genereta Textures and your LOD (DynDOLOD, XLODGen)

If your follower mod does not contain any custom animations you should be fine not running anything.

DynDOLOD shoudl not need re-running unless you make some changes to the landscapes (new tree mod or other mountan mod or anything like that)

Also you can always just try. Proplem with animation is easy to find. You will get T-Pose. Remove the mod. If you get T-Pose re run Fins and Nemesis, else you can just play. (I re run them a lot experimenting with diffrent mods and ironing out the kinks).

 

EDIT: Forgot to mention Body Slide. You will need to re run Bodyslide if you have any changes to the bodies you are using or to any armors. If the follower mod did not come with cusom armors or animations it's all good. (I have not ran Bodyslide a single time this build since I could download all of Alys' Bodyslide files. I will run it only if I see some clipping or if I want to make changes to the body or its shape)

 

 

[wollboi]

@Jessica_Degurechaff If you uninstall anything, load into your game, make a new hard save, then exit and run ReSaver and NetImmerse. It will get rid of any scripts your uninstalled mods may have left behind.

 

You only need to run Bodyslide when you want to alter proportions. Followers use the proportions Bodyslide dictates, so uninstalling them doesn't require rerunning it. Basically only run it if you want to change something with proportions or you have installed a new armor mod that has Bodyslide support. (Or just use Aylis's Bodyslide presets, since most of the new armor doesn't support it at the moment).

 

Basically:

- Re-run Bodyslide if "see above"

- Re-run DynDOLOD and the other LOD generators if you change landscape textures (Aylis will tell you when this happens during an update). Or if you notice a lot of crashes on the overworld.

- Re-run FNIS/Nemesis if you add or remove a mod with custom animations

- Re-run LOOT occasionally to see if you may have missed a patch (just don't ever sort by it)

- Re-run ReSaver/NetImmerse when you uninstall a mod, especially if the mod had a plugin

- Re-run Wrye bash when Aylis tells you to (or if you've really changed your load order a lot in between updates, but I can't imagine this would ever really apply)

- Re-run Skyrim when you feel like you want to play Skyrim

 

@Aylis New patch compendium for High Poly NPC Overhaul Skyrim 2.0. Has a patch for Morrowloot. Looks like that's probably the only thing from the list that benefits from it.

Edit - God damn, Deadly Wenches are pretty hardcore. Went to Valtheim and they killed Auri, Golldir, and Meeko.
