I've been using it for a bit now without issues.

Insanely low FPS after updating to Windows 8.1
DoubleYou replied to Halde's question in General Skyrim LE Support
I disagree that Windows 8.1 sucks. I like it. Just don't upgrade and use incorrect drivers. Not all computers can handle Windows 8.1. -
Dragon Souls not consumed after dragon is killed
DoubleYou replied to Kaelas's question in General Skyrim LE Support
In the left pane, make sure Unofficial Skyrim Patch is BEFORE Unofficial Dragonborn Patch. -
Tried everything but: SKSE + Mod Organizer = CTD
DoubleYou replied to stamstamstam's question in Mod Organizer Support
Can you run the regular Skyrim Launcher and play through that? I'm guessing corrupt INI files for the profile. -
Help Improve Pack Creation!
DoubleYou replied to TechAngel85's topic in Step Skyrim LE Packs (retired)
Pack proposal eh? I got plenty of ideas. Unfortunately, I don't really know how to implement them... yet. I might take a crash course in semantic mediawiki. -

Have you considered the possibility that Wrye Bash doesn't need to patch it in your setup -

You shouldn't need to add any tags at all (pretty sure). -
Do not alter that value! SkyUI will kill you!

Issues with scripted NPC conversations
DoubleYou replied to somagaze's question in General Skyrim LE Support
Well then, I don't think you have an issue at all. Just some freak timing issues. -

Why do mod authors choose RAR over 7z?
DoubleYou replied to DoubleYou's topic in General Skyrim LE Discussion & Support
??? Those links clearly say that I'm right. Windows 7 can indeed compress files into zips. -

DoubleYou replied to somagaze's question in General Skyrim LE Support
No. That isn't the problem, if these even is a major issue at all. I'm thinking your system might be bogged from all the scripts. Run the script latency check in Convenient Horses MCM and give the results. -
Why do mod authors choose RAR over 7z?
DoubleYou replied to DoubleYou's topic in General Skyrim LE Discussion & Support
It can't do RARs. It can't do 7z. But Windows can do Zips. To create an archive, right-click, send to, Compressed (Zipped) folder. WinRAR takes the association away for zips, but if you open the zip with Windows Explorer, you'll be able to extract zips and copy files between zips, etc., right in Windows Explorer. False. Windows 7 can via the send to menu. -

Why do mod authors choose RAR over 7z?
DoubleYou replied to DoubleYou's topic in General Skyrim LE Discussion & Support
Zip can be compressed and decompressed on any modern Windows OS (I think Mac too), so I also understand using it. 7zip can also create zips with lzma2, but I think it's a hack, and I'm not sure it works when others try to decompress it. WinRAR bundled with OS? I've never seen that. If so, just one more reason to use 7zip -
ACCEPTED Book Covers Skyrim (by DanielCoffey and doccdr)
DoubleYou replied to dstansberry's topic in Skyrim LE Mods
I vote desaturated version for Extended. I've tested it long enough and want this mod accepted. -
Why do mod authors choose RAR over 7z?
DoubleYou replied to DoubleYou's topic in General Skyrim LE Discussion & Support
But 7z can be split up into different parts too! -
The Elder Scrolls Skyrim: Goat Simulator. Ever wanted to not have to worry about getting killed, looting, selling items, etc., etc., when playing Skyrim? Ever want to embrace your inner goat? Well that's the crazy idea that just went into this head of mine (I think it must be the meds that have me on for removing my wisdom teeth). Somehow, I think that would be a pretty crazy, but fun mod! Just think of it. Crazy goat is invincible. You play as a goat. Kill dragons. Send giants flying up into the air... Shout Fus Ro Dah at everything, and everything you touch just dies, unless they cannot. That sounds like a very doable mod! I might just make it if I get bored enough.

Why do mod authors choose RAR over 7z?
DoubleYou replied to DoubleYou's topic in General Skyrim LE Discussion & Support
I use winrar at times, but rarely for creating archives. 7zip has a comparable context menu addition. Indeed, I like it better, as it only takes up one slot rather than like 4 for WinRAR for useless things like "compress and email." -
Why do mod authors choose RAR over 7z? I have yet to understand this. Take, for example, Expanded Towns and Cities. The main file is roughly half a gb in a RAR file. Why? I do realize internet connections are better than they used to be, but Nexus is not the greatest place to download big files from. I just re-archived it as a 7z using solid and ultra settings and reduced the filesize to ~350 mb. That's a whopping 30% decrease in filesize. If you bought something for 30% off, you would think it was a great deal. Now I do understand the reasons between using non-solid versus solid compression, but still, compressing it with non-solid brings it to ~390 mb, still a more than 20% reduction. The only other thing I can think of would be the possibility that this mod, being so big, and also being a fomod, using the best settings could cause the NMM installer to crash (?). Of course, this isn't the case with the Mod Organizer internal fomod installer, because it is better optimized for performance. But could that even be a concern for this mod? 7z states that only 66 mb of ram would be needed for decompressing it, so I really doubt it would crash even the NMM installer. Or is it habit? Or just simply not realizing the better compression that lzma2 has to offer?

Sorry, I got my lefts and rights mixed up. Probably the medication I'm on since I got my wisdom teeth out.

Mods can't see SKSE in Mod Organizer
DoubleYou replied to iamacrazy981's question in Mod Organizer Support
You have installed SKSE incorrectly. Please follow the installation instructions here https://wiki.step-project.com/Skyrim_Script_Extender -
Talk about a crazy fix!
