I was hoping to be able to install some survival mods like Frostfall, and campfire, maybe even Hunterborn and the like. Is there somewhere I can go to check what all I would need to change to make this work with my current STEP load order? Or if it wont work what I might could tweak in order to make it work? I know in previous builds of STEP they had lists of optional mods you could add on after the step process was complete with full instructions. However, I see no mention of frostfall anywhere in the forums. Thanks for your time, -Z

In the STEP Guide for AMidianBorn Book of Silence, it says that STEP Recommends merging all of the mods instead of having a bunch of different ones. I would like to do his but it doesn't say how to merge the mods. I know how to do it when a window pops up and asks if you want to merge them obviously but I do not know how to start that in MO2 Thanks in advance! -Z

Okay, I figured it out @Sheson. This log shows that there wasn't enough heap memory. So I installed the patch but it still wasnt doing it because there was no SKSE ini file. And the pc I was installing this on didn't have "show known file extension" enabled (thank you win10), So when I created it it was skse.ini.txt. Finally figured out the Icon was wrong. and I watched a few of gamer poets videos to get the jist of it. Once I had the right Ini file to make use of the extra ram from your patch the new game finally started the opening cart ride. I will have to see how the memory usage is later but I have been doing all this via teamveiwer so I cant actually see the game. But thank you for your help Sheson, I really immensely appreciate it. -Zarok

Nevermind I found it in the over right file. I do not understand what these other tools are, you are telling me about them but I do not understand how to use them or what they are for. I have this:

That is Great, I suppose I will post it there too. But I tried the Memory testing, but I could not generate a log file as the game never even starts. like the main menu does, The "Game" does, but the world doesnt. Even with wyrebash disabled. What do I try next?

I tried loading without the bashed patch and i still had it. Good to know this has a name too. Ill check the FAQ

I had trouble installing dyndolod, I posted here and Sheson was kind enough to help me by suggesting disabling the bashed patch. I did and installed dyndolod fine. And then I rebuilt the bashed patch and re-enabled it. Now I can launch the game, get to the menu and then start a new game. and then it just loads for about 20 minutes, then CTD. I would really appreciate any assistance. Thanks. -Zarok Aleon plugins.txt

I did as you said and I re enabled the bashed patch and launched the game and it worked. Thank you

Okay, So should I recreate the Bashed patch? or disable, run dynlodod, then re enable it?

Hey, I am getting the error, "Duplicate formID [00009389] in file [68] DynDOLOD.esp". Then I hit okay and exit it but a command line is still running in the back ground. When I first ran it, it told me to disable Birds HFclean.esp, so I did and then it ran fine and then it has this error. The log file is attached. I just wanted to say thank you to you guys you have been fantastic in helping me through this whole process and I really do appreciate it. This is the last one and I am so excited. Thanks ahead oo time for the help. -Z DynDOLOD_log.txt

So I did that and it turns out that it installed just fine, the issue was that on the second screen something was grayed out and so I thought something was wrong but I was actually able to install it anyway even though that was grayed out. Now I move onto the other patches. Is there a way that I can save all of the complicated STEP work to like one profile and then have another profile with other options or mods that are less immersive?

I am using Mod orginizer 1.3.11, I unticked those ESP's and verified both of those were set to true already. What next?

Thank you for your response! I appreciate it. I checked all of these ESP's and each one is installed and the plugin is enabled and the ESP is there. I installed every mod on the main STEP page. I wasn't sure the difference between extended and standard so I just did everything it told me to do. Like I said the one it isn't seeing is RRF but it is there but I see a note about removing the plugin. But no instructions. I am not sure what special thing needs to be done to RRF to get it to run with STEP in MO. I have tried reinstalling it.

I am using MO to install STEP, I have installed every mod from the list and finally got to the patches at the bottom, I downloaded the STEP patch and tried to run it in MO, and it asks if I have installed realistic Force and I say yes but then when it asks to install the patch it is greyed out. I know this means the mod is not installed correctly but I am not sure what to do differently. I installed the file, I do still have a plugin because I do not know how to remove it, it says to remove it in the instructions but doesn't say how, I tried disabling it and I also tried reinstalling the mod. Still with no luck installing the patch. I am not sure if the plugin is the issue or if something else is wrong. Thank you in advance for the help. This is a very long process I would hate to no be able to complete it.

You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. Thank you so much! It worked!Though I now have somethign across the top in red that says something is enabled in the enb ini file and that graphic modification is disabled. Do i need to change that?

I am in the process of installing step, and I have gone through quite a bit of it tonight and I tried to launch the game but I get the Bethesda logo and then it crashes. I played around with this for a while thinking it couldn't be the mods or load order. I kept removing factors until one combination showed the ENB overlay at startup. So I figured maybe it was something with the graphics settings, maybe my .ini files, so I created fresh ini's and still had the issues. Finally I removed the ENB files from my Skyrim directory. The ENBhost.exe the d3d9.dll and enblocal.ini + enbseries.ini. When these are removed from the directory the game launches fine through Mod Organizer and I can use scripts etc. But if I add them back I get the CTD's again. Thus far I have tried setting back up the Nvidia settings for the game, and recreating the Skyrim.ini/skyrimprefs.ini with no luck. It has to be the enb interactign with one of these ini files but I cannot for the life of me figure out which one it is or which value to change. I do not have alot of experience with this or with step at all so I am reaching out hoping someone can help me out. I really appreciate it. Thanks in advance -Zarok
