That part is sort of fluid atm. They all work (except the newest update for OStim).

 

With all the infighting in OStim/OpenSex/etc i might end up switching back to full SexLab. With all the constant (sometimes incompatible) updates it starts to cause more issues and headache than i had with SexLab before. Instead of having less issues it starts to become even more problematic...

On a totally unrelated note: I am so glad that I was too lazy to rerun dyndolod last weekend. ?

Nope, no spikes. Did you manually install POM?

I placed the `enbcomplexparallax.ini` in my skyrim root folder beside the enbseries.ini file.

This is what I understand is needed to be done.

 

I even checked that I am updated to the latest version of ENB 0.494

Cleared my cache file and still not really any luck, it feels like I am missing some mod.

 

Final edit:

I set the following settings in my enbseries.ini and now everything looks great and the ground spikes are gone.

EnableTerrainParallax=false
EnableComplexTerrainParallax=false

I based this off several forum posts as seen here https://forum.nexusmods.com/index.php?showtopic=11457828/#entry123279987

 

I am very happy with the look, the parallax looks amazing.

I was missing some things (Skyrim 3D Landscapes - Ground Covers was not installed just the meshes) as the pack is massive.

Hello ^-^

i'm newbie to modding stuffs but i'm doing it well until i installed the 'Vanilla SMP clothing' from Armor and Weapons list. Basically the boobs of my PC simply goes infinitely down in a progressive speed, but only when i put clothes on her, idk what i'd done wrong.

i've not finished installing the whole modlist yet as i'm checking the game very often.

Thats the reason. The body and physics setup for it is added in 'Final'.

[Lightsn]

Weird as the physics and animations are a previous list, but i'll finish it to see what happens, ty for the answer ^-^

[MainZoe]

Just to add something that might like others like me. I have found a mod that allows to auto unnequip the helped (weapons, bow, gauntlets as well but my principal interest was the helmet). The mod is Lazy Item Hider. If there is a mod like this in the guide, didnt see that or how does it work, but this is pretty easy to use with MCM.

@gptin4

Have you reconfigured your AV?

Also make sure your AV isn't interfering! An AV like 'MS Defender' can cause the same issues as with 'Nemesis' (see 'Tips and Tricks').

wasn't that it just needed some files to be flagged differently idk why but its worked now so dw ive been on this for hours trying to get this working so its nice to get it there. just doing the 2nd run through now

[nightred]

I think this has been asked but would you be willing to post a copy of your loadorder.txt, plugins.txt, modlist.txt?

I would love to compare (use diff) to see how close I am to your list.

I am setting up AE for 1st time. I have 1.6 something version, I dl'd revert update from nexus.  This guide is applicable for me after I revert update? Does revert update send me back to regular SE?

[korveli]

Has anyone experienced an almost blinding glow on many NPCs? It mostly affects characters inside of cities. It looks like a Restoration/Alteration spell effect is being applied, but the glow is constant and only stops for a second.

 

At this point I don't know if it's a mod applying some effects, if it's a perk or something, or if I have missed to disable some MCM option somewhere.

[MainZoe]

After installing everything (except the Quests, companions and World Expansion), i see some male characters with purple skin. I know its about a texture missing or something like that, but, is there a way to know which texture is missing to install it?

@nightred

Won't help as i'm using a partially different setup (aka testing mods).

 

@Heroine HoneyCrotch

No idea. This is something you have to test for yourself.

 

@korveli

Check the settings of RSS in the MCM.

 

@MainZoe

1. Pics belong in spoilers.

2. Texture or overlay. Try reinstalling the RBT textures.

If you revert with the downgrader from Nexus follow the old SE mod list, you will have a 1.5 version game.

When using the V Cut body, it says I need to edit new outfits for it.
I added a few more Outfits (100+) to my Game.
When I clicked on the Linked Tutorial on the V cut Mod site, he takes 30 mins to edit an Outfit. The fastes Tutorial needs ~ 10 mins and is sloppy.
I dont't want to spend 1000+ mins editing outfits for V cut Body, is there a faster way? Or can I ignore the outfit edits?

Hiya! First, thank you a lot for your work on that guide! Being quite new into applying mods, it greatly helps me!

However, I have a question. I just finished to install the foundation mods and I wanted to run a test. (Especially to see if I've not been greedy with 4K textures...)

So I started to follow the DynDOLOD part before testing, and I'm having a little question about the first step. The 2 last worldspaces seem to be "Shivering Isles" and "Somewhere in the Mountains", though I don't have them. I looked over google and I can't see how to get them... (I'm wondering if I missed something in the list, but I swear I followed everything from beginning to where I am)

Instead, I have "Deadlands" and Giant's Tooth", but I also looked on google, and I saw that they are from the Creation Club. I guess I won't apply the seasons on them, but I'm actually questioning about the 2 missing worldspaces. Any idea?

Thanky!

I know somewhere in the mountains applies to the overhaul to windhelm, (Ulfric's Jarldom) there is an NPC that invites you to hunt a bear and it takes you up to a snowy area. So I would leave that one well enough alone, same with the shivering Isles since that applies to the Solitude overhaul w/ the enhanced version of saints & seducers

@Shihiro

Don't bother too much about it. Simply create the bodyslides with a zeroed preset and you're done.

 

@DrakEmono

DynDOLOD should be done much later. There will be later on so many changes to the landscape that you're only wasting time.

 

I go about seasons with the simple rule that all the overground regions on Nirn have seasons, underground and regions in a daedric realm have not.

[nightred]

Lux has been updated and the FOMOD does not line up anymore.

There is more parallax options and page 3 is different now.

several nice new patches like Remiel, Away Come Away, etc.

Aaah ok, well I won't take care of it until the end, thanks.

@nightred

Thanks.  Updated

[nightred]

I have found several issues with the mod 'Skyrim Wayshrines' SWIFT

Most of them are that several objects in the consortium caves if picked up will cause your game to crash when you open your inventory. (Black robes in the back of the consortium caves is a prominent one, when picked up two items of the same name flash in the corner of the screen)

The mod author was notified of this several months ago (Dec 2022) and has yet to make a patch for this.

 

I am do not have the skills to make  patch my self so I am removing this mod and warn about it as I have some corrupted saves from it.

 

Edited June 24, 2023 by nightred

[alaunus01]

I did not encounter any inventory related crashes in a while, nothing with SWIFT either. The last time I had to debug anything close was when Aylis was including WAACF in the modlist. Some 'really' old soundmods attached their effects to equipment pieces too.

[pgrm]

Is there any good npc overall mod for the enchanced solitude mod?In the first page there is only apatch for the kid npc that the mod adds!

 

Thanks in advance!
