With Landscape Fixes back in I would suggest staying on the lookout for terrain seam issues and learning how to crank out a dirty compability patch. ?

 I'm still a bit of a noob with patching @alaunus01 previously I was finding conflicts in xEdit and dragging records around (into the bashed patch when possible), I recently learned how to make a patch plugin from those conflicts, still learning! so much more to learn! ?

Posted

BBLS is a must have for my game and there are now patches available for a lot of conflicts. it is a great central home if you play with a lot of followers. Its all up to your play style.

All this talk reminds me, I've got 3 patches for mods in the list.
Two might only be needed for Nature of the Wild Lands users (resizes some oversized plants, in Eli's Breezehome and JK's College of Winterhold). May or may not be needed for Happy Little Trees.

The other is for Little Touches, Whiterun Interiors. Just disables a bunch of the more obvious trees that are clipping through stuff.

Attached here for people to test, but I really should put up a page for easy linking and finding.

You have to pick the ONE mod that is infamous for being the most incompatible back in the oldrim days. ?

I didn't know that.  It has been working flawlessly for me.  I've only used it for a year though.  Interesting bit of information.  Thank you.

It's been around since about 2012 so it's one of the most mature mods out there too! lots of time to work things out!

Actually, I have used BBLS for years, and appreciate migal's continued dedication to it. It has improved stability-wise. It is in a semi-popular area so is not compatible with everything.

BTW, I am happy to see the Darenii mods being looked at (in the recent Collecting Links post). I installed Abyss maybe a month ago and forgot about it. Then, recently, in game an NPC started hitting me with this interesting purple spell I didn't recognize. And it was not OP. I have been thinking about adding more from the same MA, but wasn't sure which ones.

 

It makes me want to try more of the "pretty" magic spells as I have not really done that before. Any advice?

It was my first skyrim modding drama back in the oldrim days. Compatible with nothing, I 'think' overwrote vanilla assets, no permission to upload patches for it (back then) and extremely stable. I think it was completely rebuild a couple years in but I still get twitches when I see it in a modlist somewhere ?

LOL, understandable! Skybirds does that to me. Oh, the scripts!

 

Yeah, BBLS is a lot better now, though admittedly it has a lot going on.

New BBLS version updated yesterday.  Just an FYI.  Think it incorporates a music and dancing thing for the girls there.  Was an add-0n.

New DynDOLOD DLL is here to spice up our mod lists...

Already tested it and it is problematic with its requirements. Nothing for beginners so i won't add it.

 

 

@misterpipes

Your patch for Whiterun is great and will be added. I'll test the other two later.

Thanks, Aylis, 'O Sleepless One! This update is timely for me. I am FINALLY updating hardware and will probably soon start over with this guide after over 2 years on a single heavily altered/experimental/huge build based on the old SE guide.

Pppfff..   Sleep is for the weak. 

 

Take care of yourself Aylis.  Can't have you relapsing.  You gotta be healthy to try to enjoy the fruits of your labors.  :)

@Aylis MO2 throws out a missing master error for Droppable AE Notes when we disable Tundra Homestead. Don't know if that'll cause any major issues, but I'm just getting rid of the notes mod just in case. It's more of a convenience thing anyway.

 

Also, did you intentionally remove the extra steps for windmills from the DynDOLOD instructions?
