You are right. I was going off of memory and swear in an older edition of SRLE that timescale was set to 20 in the bashed patch

I worded that poorly. Why did you choose a timescale of 20. What are the benefits? Why did you choose 20 over 15 or 10?

What got you to choose a timescale of 20 instead of 10 or 15. Just curious

I am a little confused about the Septim HD install instructions. Should I uncheck everything except Default BBP. When I do this I get the warning- no game data on top level. Or should I leave the textures and meshes checked also?

In MO I have activated the esp. When I try to install in the skyrim datat folder and run w steam I cant tell if the esp is active because the data option in the launcher (If I have that named right) wont let me see my esp through the launcher

I have tried installing ELFX to MO everyway I can and I am not sure if it is working. Like I said earlier its the only mod I am using. So I want to install it directly to Skyrim data to see what happens. I'm guessing all I have to do is copy the meshes textures and esp from elfx straight to the skyrim data folder. Is that correct? also would the data opyion in the steam launcher be lit up so I can click it to make sure the esp is active?

I have Reinstalled Skyrim to my hard drive, Re-downloaded Skyrim to MO. Installed to mo multiple times using fomod and and mo quickinstall even tried the manual install button. Like I said my braziers in Helgen cave are gone but if I uninstall ELFX they return. I am not using any other mods. Can anyone please help? I don't want to play till I figure this out because I'm wondering how many other light sources will be missing

I am using ELFX on a clean install and it is the only mod I have activated. When I am in Helgen cave non of the brazier fires are there. I have re downloaded the mod. Does anyone have any advice?

I have started a new game and have found 2 missing lights (fires) so far. The first was after entering the first chamber and taking the dead end path (stream) to the left, and the second was in the bears chamber pretty much across the stream from where you enter the room at. Anyone have any ideas that can help?

I'm confused by where the cleaned masters go. Is it after the unofficial hi res patch?

I have just made my first attempt am merging plugins. My first question so far is, after I make the merged esp do I hide each esp that is used in making the merged esp. Which results in the mod being greyed out in the left side of MO. I am sure that is what the skyre guide says but I just wanted to be sure

I use 2 versions of MO. I use the latest MO to play the game but I use MO v1.0.12 to do all of my downloading. The reason I use v1.0.12 to download is because I like to rename poorly named mods so that I can remember and know what they are, and to keep a backup of everything incase I loose anything. Saves me a lot of time. For some reason I cant download to v1.0.12 anymore. When I start it up and hit the download button and it says logging into the Nexus but I can never log in. I have tried pushing the globe icon and also changed NMM Version to 0.53.3. And of coarse I Checked my username and password. Can anyone help out?

I have Mature Skin Texture and Body installed as two separate mods. Should I make the femaleheadvampire.dds and femaleheadvampire_msn.dds in the Body and Face Texture UNP mod or the Body and Face Normal Maps UNP mod

I know I am not a coder or computer tech but I have been following these posts to the best of my ability. I am pretty sure I read a post from Tannin that says he is pretty much against mod extraction. I did an install of Skyrim Revisited and if I extract all of the mods I get a PMOP warning. If I don't extract the BSAs I don't get any PMOP warning. At the risk of sounding dumb because I know I'm not a computer guy I think people are trying to make this more difficult than it should be. If you ask me the only mods that affect the PMOP warning are game changing mods (Which have the scripts). Unless it is a game changing mod that affects textures that you need to hide for earlier texture mods I don't understand why we need to extract all of the BSAs. Now on the other hand texture mods shouldn't have scripts so they should be able to be extracted with no issues and really the only ones that would need extracted are texture mods that are later in the install order that need to have textures hidden if you want to a texture from an earlier mod. I know you guys get tired of explaining how things work but please if my thinking is wrong explain to me why.

So in other words DoubleYou the only mods we need to extract are texture mods that are higher in priority that we want to hide files in so that lower priority files can take priority?

Question for Tannin. I am unclear on one thing. If I do not extract a BSA on a mod am I still able to Hide texture files in that mods file tree so that a lower mods file can be used instead. I keep seeing on here you can only hide files if you extract BSAs but I'm not sure I agree with that

By now everybody should own all of the DLC. It has gone on sale so many times on steam for five or so dollars. A lot of people are probably tired of downloading three plugins for one mod when they could be downloading one legendary version of a mod. Just imagine how many esp slots we could save having legendary versions of mods. Plus I am sure the time of a modder is worth more than that 5 dollars someone cheap will not spend on one DLC having to make three versions of one mod because others think they are making a statement not breaking down and just buying HF. After all isn't Skyrim just worth it in general and that's why everyone spends so much time on Skyrim?

look at my first post and tell me why my spoiler is not working. It looks so simple to di I don't understand

I have tried the spoiler command a few times and haven't quite figured it out.

So maybe I should star out with fans and add a cooler if necessary. I noticed in the video they had two fans on the radiator. Its probably a smaller version of a car. you have a radiator cooling the engine but you still need a fan. Heat rises so I'm guessing the best fan placement is 1 in the front pushing air into the case, 1 on the upper back and 2 on the top drawing out air if the case has that option.

a couple features that would be cool to see in MO 1) In the file tree if you hide a file or folder the text becomes red to easily identify that it is hidden 2) On the downloads tab when you uninstall a mod make the text revert back to green so you can easily identify it is uninstalled 3) On the mod names tab allow use to have basic colors such as red, blue, green, orange so when we set of sections in our mod list it will be easy to identify the section headers 4) maybe make a couple larger font size options I don't know if these features can be implemented but I think they would be awesome and make MO that much more user friendly. I'm not a programmer but I know they visit the STEP forums and are reading this and maybe someone could set it up and make it that much easier for Tannin to include in MO.

I'm not able to go into MO right now but I was wondering. Do Texture mods like book of silence have BSAs? I have always used loose file till very recently. Also if I do not extract BSAs I am sill able to go into a mods file tree and hide texture files that I do not want. I am new to this but I don't see any reason to change any file that are in ESP type mods for example run for your lives. The only mods that we are having issues with the mod order warning tab is ESP type mods. So why do we need to extract BSAs because esp files don't get changed you are still able to hide textures. And it there is an ESP type texture mod maybe those are the only ones you would have to unpack. Did any of that make sense?

Is there anyway to post my current list to the beginning of this thread so that it doesn't get lost in this discussion. I actually wasn't expecting to make it to a two page post. I figure the more of you guys that read it the more input I might get. I still have a few more questions but it is about bedtime. I have a few more doubts about my build that I will have to get answered through reviews and the great input I get from the STEP members. This will be my first build and is an expensive project so I am in no rush to run out and buy my parts and don't mind waiting a week or two to order. What I should probably do it take my two posts and combine them for the bigger picture. Have a good night everyone.

So should I go water cooled or fans? I think what I took from the video is that a good fan can cool just as well and has less moving parts and equals less potential issues, which is with anything in life, Lets just say you have a 100 degree room. Would the water cooling at some point equal the efficiency of the fans because after awhile the water would start getting pretty war? Or how about if you had a room you kept 70 degrees would you be able to keep temps under control with a fan but I guess a water cooler would keep the computer cooler yet
