worik Posted March 5, 2020 Author Posted March 5, 2020 Keeping mentally and physically fit for the many dangers in Skyrim is an important part of my days. Often, you have just to take every opportunity you get. Thankfully, I found a friendly guy with similar priorities, who is assisting me now with my evening push-ups. First warming up - the lady version, supporting your body weight with your knees. Spoiler Next excercise. Your full weight is placed on your hands, elbows and toes. You place your hands far from your center and go down until your elbows almost rest on the ground. Concentrate on your shoulder and back. Ask your partner to keep you steady, if necessary. Spoiler

Nice glasses .... makes them look cute. Alsao a bit "intellectual", "friendly" and less "muscle" ? I guess they have it much easier to integrate in a social group than me. Make new friends and such. I always tend to get rough with others. Spoiler Should I try to wear glasses, too? Would they like me more if I look a bit more "cute"? 1

Grey Cloud Posted March 6, 2020 Posted March 6, 2020 Thinking that it was one thing having a 20-wolf spam at one location but having a 20-bandit spam every time there are bandits is a different kettle of kippers. (The wolf spam failed to show up for the last game and has not been seen since. The bandit thing has just started in the last couple of levels.) Near Mor Khazgur, heading south. I was giving a bandit camp a very wide berth but they still managed to spot me. Couldn't run because I was encumbered ( ? ). Doing alright in the fight when out of nowhere I'm DAYMOL-ed. After a couple of rapes I'm good to go with my trusty pick-axe and fireball combo (note to self: enchant the fucking pick-axe). Doing alright in that fight (at least I can now run thanks to being robbed) when some 'travelling bandit marauder' or something (I'd never seen or heard of before) jumps into the fight and DAYMOLs me. A couple of rapes later I get the 60 seconds grace from the marauder but the original bunch of bandits are still hostile. More running around like a lunatic firing fireballs and swinging the pick. Eventually the penny drops and I realise that the pick is doing next to no damage. Added to this is the realisation that there is a mage out there giving it big licks with shock damage which is tanning my magicka and the bastard is invisible - as in the bug/glitch where they don't appear. That's why I've got the succubus detect life on and why I'm hiding behind the rock. There's 16 of them in the pic and I've already killed several (I think). Basically I'm sniping fireballs from a position they can't get to. I'm on fire from a zillion shots of that fire cloak spell from another mage. It was case of putting my head above the parapet letting go a fireball or two quicksticks before the shocker got my magicka and then ducking back behind the rock. Eventually I realised that I still had a staff of fireballs in my inventory so I equipped that and took the fight to them. It still took about three weeks to finish them.

Hide contents Don't suppose you know of any mods/patches that allow Estrus and SL to play nice with each other. Having them fight for dominance of which was going to fuck my character would often leave me reloading saves.
Mez558 Posted March 7, 2020 Posted March 7, 2020 Trying to get off Solstheim at 1st level after LAL dumped me there. Pretty much everything can 1 shot me in melee and those that can't and require two hits move so fast you will never get away. Doesn't help when I get encounters like this Spoiler Which, if the image isn't that clear, is me running into the Hair Bair Bunch... On Steroids. Doesn't need anything like this to finish me off tho' a couple of wolves or an Ash Hopper is enough to have me mashing my keyboard trying to resist rape.

I'm using: Estrus For Skyrim V241r1 (with the esp deactivated) Estrus Chaurus V4.37 Estrus-Chaurus-Spider-Addon v4.342-5 Not noticed any problems. The 'IKEA' shot was earlier in the dungeon. I got another estrus attack at the point: https://www.loverslab.com/topic/31131-guess-this-location/?do=findComment&comment=2923529 The spiders got involved because I went for the 'lure' option in a dialogue box which pops up from somewhere (PSQ?) There used to be an issue with Estrus For Skyrim where only v1.61 or something worked (animations wouldn't load or play or something) but that was fixed a while back. As you can see the latest (?) version, 2.41 works. People are still warning about the the issue though.

Grey Cloud Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Doing a bit of tree-hugging. For the last year or two The tree is actually there, you can't walk across the space. Searched high and low in T5E but couldn't find anything wrong. Mesh and texture files were in the correct locations. Totally stumped (pun intended). Downloaded a couple of replacers and manually replaced the mesh and textures but it didn't work. Tried to install a replacer via NMM which said that the mesh had already been installed by Aradia's Mushrooms ! Hey? Loooked at the archive for Aradia's Mushroom (the phallic things I use) and sure enough there are meshes but . . . no textures. So back to installing the replacer with NMM. Gildergreen 4K Parallax-74498-1-03 The parallax really does the job - makes the bark look really thick. Not bad. Let's try another one. ElSopa - Decorated Gildergeen Tree HD-101630-1-0-1583249602 I like El Sopa's stuff. This is the carved option. There is a plain option which is a bit too pale grey and washed out/bleached looking. I could, of course, have just uninstalled Aradia's Mushrooms to see what would happen. Meanwhile, for some reason between last night and this morning most of my saves are refusing to load. The only ones which work are those in the LAL cell. These last two screenies were taken after a LAL start to the Mare so I know the game works even though this save didn't have the MCMs loaded and it squawked about a zillion missing esps. I've tried double-loading but that didn't work either. 1

Grey Cloud Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 10 minutes ago, Mez558 said: Double-loading? Loading an auto save then loading a real save after? Loading from any save which works and then loading the save you want. In my case any of the LAL saves I have worked and I can get into Skyrim from there but I can't load an existing save from there. Did you have a look at the imperial body of that Lucien guy?
Mez558 Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 After running around Solstheim for dear life, chased by things that could cut that life short very quickly. I am finally ready to leave. what helped is that most things on Solstheim hate most other things. So Ash Hoppers, Burned Spriggans and Ash Spawn will all fight each other (along with Reavers) with very little convincing on my part. The hard part is staying away from Ash Hoppers long enough to be able to make this happen. Spoiler Managed to find 4 East Empire pendants in my travels (couple I wasn't aware of, before) hence my vast wealth. I spent most of my headless chicken adventure naked as my Miner's clothes, Hide Armour, Bonemold and a suit of Studded were all eaten up Ash Hoppers or destroyed by fire from Spriggans or Spawn. The elvish weapons I will have to sell, looted weapons have a tendency to break during use until they are sharpened/tempered (with MW&A) and it's just not worth the risk. At 3rd level, no one is selling any moonstone for me to upgrade them. Time to see Gjalund.

From what I can tell, that is Mihail's Imps Not an imperial race. But, I am a little confused as after unpacking the BSA I can't find any files for it.

Yeah, that's basically what I meant, I just end up using autosaves first. I didn't know it had a name.

That's what is confusing me. I had a look at the mod on Nexus and there was no mention of anything to do with animal/creatures. Just says he starts off as a bookworm type but gradually gets tougher.
worik Posted March 8, 2020 Author Posted March 8, 2020 Hmpf! Thank you! I was asking for directions to "some ancient ruins" and was guided into the middle of nowhere. Though I can see some ruins on the horizon, but I could have found a better path. Bloody village-dwellers! Spoiler Oh! And if you could excuse me a moment? My tummy is giving me some issues, before it's usual time . By chance: Anybody has a napkin? Some cotton?

donttouchmethere Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Trying to rebuild my Skyrim from scratch. It would be too easy to just do that without trying out new mods. Finally I saw something of the game! Can't believe I only have only 200 mods installed, where are the other 250 ? Anyways, I'm really happy to be back in Skyrim after weeks of mod updating/sorting. Also surprised that it didn't CTD right away with all those -for me- unknown mods. Well, plenty of CTD chances later ? Spoiler Back in Skyrim! New textures everywhere o.o And new eyes and mouth mesh... maybe more, loosing the overview already awesome new dirt =D just look at this new gravel too! amazing =D Uhm... and trying out the Immerslave LAL AIO mod, makes testing a bit more difficult... unless you want to test the DD installation new treeeees! lots of them I love the new trees! Pretty hard without my usual mods to escape especially with those rude NPC WHAT, NOOOO! I'm just testing here! Damn it >.< 1
woodsman30 Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Hate to see them go but I sure do like to watch when they leave ? Spoiler
Grey Cloud Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 My new character has just landed in the Silver-Blood Inn and is ready to make his entrance. I bring you . . . Tripod. Back story: His real name is Richard and he used to work in the stationary office. His workmates called him 'Pencil Dick'.
