I will be adding a ☑️ to the mods that do have an update for AE (just be patient, i just started to go through the pages).

 

For those that do want to use the free CC and have the rest running as well. Make a copy of the following files:

SkyrimSE.exe

binkw64.dll

interface\startmenu.swf

Make the update to AE and then copy the three files back into the game.

 

 

I can't find and startmenu.swf for Skyriim.  Searched both my SSDs and the only startmenu.swf file was in my Enderal install.

@axz2

If you don't have one you should be fine. That swf was mentioned in another thread to cause issues when it gets overwritten (aka with the update).

 

Maybe thats only with a different UI. Added an info to the post

So my fps are great except in the woods out side falkreach . I think its the grass up and such up to my waste . 

 

Any suggestions on what mod I can tweak to alleviate this . My fps goes down to 34ish in this area . enough of a drop i can feel it 

 

Also , if i change something will i have to rerun the grass cache or lod and bash again  ?

 

screenshoot 3 is the worst , 40fps for the first 37 the 2nd and the last is 31. enb did get captured ..

 

 

edit rebuilding the grass cache with the dyndolod option set to one has seemed to work .

For anyone jumping to AE, I would say that the list is stable with all of the updates so far BUT Racemenu still hasn't updated yet and that's a big consideration. Also, I think DAR still doesn't work with AE yet.

 

Regarding the female walk, I'm a little confused too. EVG Animation Variance recommends using a walk replacer on its main page. Now that mcgFemaleWalk was removed, I'm back to ugly Skyrim walking. I re-added it, and I still see EVG AV's conditional animations (wounded, tired, etc.).

 

Does earlier versions of mcgFemaleWalk still work with AE? Let's say I have the folder somewhere...

You can always "force" them to work putting them in the DAR folders (virtual folders on MO2), the thing is you gotta figure out what # to name the folder.

The nexus page of DAR haves most numeric namings tho, should be easy. 

example: an sneak animation not meant for DAR

@Aylis Im currently testing Nexus mods Nemesis but im having some troubles on my SSD (damn windows 11 i swear) but i believe its the exact same thing but just on nexus (finally)

May be worth to change the link on the guide, you cant believe how much times people download the Code instead of teh actual thing in GitHub

and ?I recommend to merge Mesh Fixes into the main mod  for HD Stone Quarry and Clay Deposit seems to be no longer needed as the Mod Author updated the mod and added it into the main files.

@Jessica_Degurechaff Yeah, very happy it's finally on Nexus. Much easier to keep track of updates for it now.

@Auxitism Careful with using SMP hair on NPCs, I encountered glitching problems with that mod on some NPCs. Haven't test all hairs on PC though.

 

As for female walk, try this one https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/51198 or this https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/52742

[chevalierx]

Gave it up as hair during sex scenes went hair-wire

For some you can save and later reload the settings. It usually is one of the options on the last page.

The MCM Settings loader series helps with exactly that.

Obviously he hasn't created a loader for every mod including a MCM on this list (yet) but he should cover a couple of mods.

For me personally it's about 20. That's 20 MCMs less to configure.

Another issue - I just arrived at Dragonsreach, and it is extremely dark inside. WHen I disable the Bashed Patch, everything is fine. I tried rebuilding it a few times, but whenever I enable the Bashed Patch, Dragonsreach is nearly black

I had this issue as well , I fixed it by using the vanilla values version of luminosity and rebuilding my bash appropriately . not sure if this is kosher but I haven't had any complaints yet to doing this

Replacing Luminosity with Luminosity Lightweight works, thank you!

Nice find. I definitely have to take a closer look at that.

Interesting guide. I tried lotd a few month ago but i was bothered by the lack of flexibility. I'll definitely give this one a shot.

look at each mod and see if you can export json settings. save them into a mod named Mod settings. Load a new game an import them.

@remodel

Thanks again for the informations about the BMI. Had to tweak the preset quite a bit.

Spoiler

For those who want abs i'll add instructions on release. And then i'll see to convert it for Skyrim.

The body is lovely, and she looks very healthy with a hint of muscles.

Yeah, and start a spreadsheet that records every change, lol, but seriously, it helps.  Gotta say, MCM Settings loader looks like a real labor saver, but even it doesn't completely eliminate that spreadsheet,  not yet.

Just a tip

@Aylis 3BBB updated and added collition on breasts between actors, and a few configurations here and there, the FOMOD changed (did not removed anything, just added)

May want to take a look at it, it should not change anything but never hurts to check (im doing exactly that)
