I can highly recommend Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Downgrade Patcher.  It's what I'm using and is working flawlessly so far up to the SexLab mods.  It's so much easier than the archive file method of downgrading, yes, I've done this in 2019 on the last SE "upgrade".

Thanks for this, remodel, but, truth be told, I've only had to downgrade once in the last 10+ years./  Sometimes it pays to be the turtle, I guess.  Keep up the good work, I enjoy your posts.

I frequently want to search <CTRL-F> this excellent modding guide's web page (looking for a reference, checking a reference, verifying requirements, etc., etc. etc.).  I have to manually click on each Section Header to display the mods listed in it. The search function can't find what it doesn't see.

 

Is there some way all of the section headers can be accessed at the same time, allowing me to open, display and search the entire page without all that clicking.

No

?   OK

Some animations say they require Disable Turn Animation . I've never used it . Has anyone here ? Does it mess up anything else ? 

[annanymus]

@Decopauge123 I was checking out the links in your signature. Your dyndolod esm should go to the top. The esp stays at the bottom.

How did you get your system specs on Step?

 

Also, I saw you have Barenziah quest markers. Have you seen this?

SkySA - Combat Behavior Compulsion

 

Anyone using this with AE? Just asking to save myself headaches possibly

Yeah, I use that a lot, too. Thanks, though.

Sorry , I'm not as helpful as I'd like to be. Didn't mean to offend. 

 

 

Side note : AE is a bust again for me after 2 days trying. Too many losses , aside from convient things like main menu , the straw that broke my back was AMR and SkySA

For consideration of being included in the Guide:  World Eater Eater.

"Face Pack", the first selection option under 'Face Options' on the 1st CBBE installation screen, displays this message when moused over:

 

Installs female head textures and masks that are compatible with the default CBBE body textures. Required if you don't use another CBBE compatible set of head and body textures already.

 

 

High Poly Head is used in this Guide.  I would say that HPH qualifies as the '... CBBE compatible set" mentioned, and I could safely not check "Face Pack" and continue on with my installation of this Guide.

 

Would I gain any benefit to checking "Face Pack"?

Simple question, how i can increase the amount of Animations for Nemesis?

Like i installed a lot of behaviors for DAR (and stuff like posers) and im slightly avobe the limit, so whenever i start the game i got a message that im avobe the limit for Male and Female.
Any idea of how to increase the limit? Like FNIS XXL ...  or i just have to deactivate some of my animation packs?

The Popup with the animation limit that comes once you start skyrim is most likly from DAR (default ist 16.384 Animations i think).

Unfortunatly there is no way to increase that limit atm without switching to the AE-Version which causes more problems than it solves for now.

 

Thats at least as far as I know.

 

[akadeadpool]

I'm thinking about switching ENB from Rudy to something else more performance friendly. Are there any recommandations?

I agree 102%, remodel.  The .ESMs it produces are what I've been using since late November.

For those who might be interested, I came across this nifty page with a list of all the Skyrim SE Creation Club Content. If you go into the individual pages, they have the file names for each piece of content (Good some of those poorly/weirdly-named ones).

 

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Creation_Club

 

 

Also gives a bit of the content description for each creation, but not that much more detailed that the CC description at times. Still beats a kick in the ass though. Regardless, it's a piece of knoweldge worth bookmarking.

 

Nice find, asebw!

@Aylis will installing SSE Creation Kit Fixes adversely affect the Build?  I'm thinking not, but wanted to be sure.

Yeah been thinkering around and it seems its a hard limit. Shame.

Oh well, at least it does not affects FNIS exclusive anims even if Nemesis its handling them

[trgdolors]

@Auxitism No offense taken at all. Sorry if I came across that way.

 

@Jessica_Degurechaff and @rajinthetroll In the Posts section of DAR there is a link and discussion of a replacement file that allegedly increases DAR animations significantly (for SE PRE-AE, not the official update for AE). I am using it, though I do not have over-the-limit animations. That is not the best test, but the game is still working.

 

@akadeadpool Did you try, with Rudy ENB, the "Better Performance ini WS RT and ELFX" from Miscellaneous files? Also there are some pretty good tips on how to change settings for better performance on the main Rudy ENB SE for Cathedral Weathers Nexus Description page. I would try those things first.

 

However; I did make some notes to myself from Reddit that Truth may be one of the lightest presets. Maybe Soul Spectrum would be good to try, also. I have not used them yet since tweaking Rudy helped enough so far on my not awesome machine.

 

Rudy is really good, but has a reputation of being on the heavy side. If anyone tries other ENB presets please report back on how it goes!

@NobleFonz

It's the other way around.

 

Thank you for making an excellent mod i simply had to include. It is mod authors like you that make a guide like this even possible in the first place.

 

Thanks for your kind words and big props for making a Skyrim guide. I know its a real pain putting a stable modlist together when modding for Skyrim is ever changing and can just be exhausting in general. I myself spent what felt like forever, trying to make a modlist and still haven't finished it lol. It's hard when you notice so many different conflicts/bugs and can't decide on what certain mods you wanna use. I'm gonna be taking a hiatus from playing Skyrim for a while but when I get back into it I'll definitely check out your guide and the community to get some pointers and ideas.

Nice find, Thanks have to test that once i finished going through the list to see what is not yet updated to AE.

 

And since i was going through my personal List anyway i wanted to suggest this small fix for the prisoner Cart in the vanilla start with smim:

Prisoner cart fix SMIM

No idea. I never used it.

[Jessica_Degurechaff]

Do you guys have any idea why my game is a bit too bright? 
The in-game settings are at the min so its not that

Maybe its luminosity?  its not. 
Well, its not really something that bad, i just wish i could make the game (specially interiors like inns) a bit darker, just a bit.

It was windows Shadows, the optional config on the FOMOD changes the lighting inside cells, fixed-


also, some of the subtitles show up for like.. 0.1 seconds and then they dissapear, anyone knows why? (not that it matters imo, just wondering)

Has anyone followed the A Guide to making a proper Bashed Patch by judge007.   I'd like to know before I start; Is the effort worth it?

 

I have read the Guards Armor Replacer should be un-ticked during the making of the Bashed Patch so they won't be found in treasures.  Any opinions on this?

 

I'll use the guide and un-tick GAR if no one knows.
