Octopuss

I used to vurt my setup a lot in past, but stopped doing so because of completely inconsistent results. I assume the Skyrim engine plays a large role here. I could fly around for 10 minutes like a madman once, and then get a CTD within 15 seconds twice in a row. That kind of makes it useless to draw conclusions.

That's awesome. I've just tried it, it seems to work.

That skunky123 guy deleted all his mods as well, the Ultra HD texture pack or whatever is it called. I don't think they are the same person though.

I really like the new version. I didn't like several of the textures in first version, but this one is really nice. The style changed and I think for the better. However, after downloading the 4k version I am a little disappointed to see few of the textures are apparently upscales from 2k version with some additional detail put in. I'm not saying they are bad, but it seems pointless to do this when the source material is not suitable for 4k. The other part of the 4k textures really look like being true 4k though, and I love them. The normal maps are awesome though, and I grabbed those from 4k and overwrote the 2k version with them. Oh btw, the 2k version contains 4k version of impwall04.dds. Not very important, but you might want to reupload it at some point or something.

For anyone who unfortunately felt for the nonsense ******** still circulating the internet, and is still afraid of writing few MBs each day: https://techreport.com/review/27062/the-ssd-endurance-experiment-only-two-remain-after-1-5pb Also read the first article and note the date, and then do the math.

Oh I didn't notice that! It's at the bottom of the list. Thanks, I'll try. edit: it works!

I'm trying to resize some ridiculously oversized clutter textures, but DDSOpt seems to have a bug where it refuses to do anything with textures that aren't a square. Is there any way around this?

Does the screenshot Working Folder Screenshot after Pre-optimization still apply for 2.78? I only have 4864 files in "vanilla optimized" folder instead of 5571. Also, the only folders insiee it are HRDLC2, 3, and STD. Everything else is correct.

Cool. And you know what? You (along with William and the few other most "loyal" fans) win. I'm out of here. No need to visit forums where significant amount of regulars dislike you. If any of the admins/mods feel like it, go ahead and ban my account if you want to make sure I don't accidentally come back.

(not sure why I can't edit my posts) Whoever it was (you CJ?), thank you for proving my point.

Ah, reputation system, one of the biggest mistakes of modern forum software. I had my share of fans in here as well, getting negative rep for random posts just because I dared to post something. Hope the admins can sort it out for you, this is a bit over the line.

Is it a known problem or something that (cross)bows shoot completely wrongly in 3rd person? Everytime I try that, arrows/bolts go either way left or right (not sure) to the target while having crosshair on its centre. I am using the usual 4 or so ini tweaks (which I have no idea what they do).

Hmm, now that I see them together like this, you're probably right. Guess I remembered the vanilla body wrongly.

I wonder what's up with all the anorectic stomachs on these bodies. Do you guys actually like that? I think someone once said one of the goals was more realistic feel for Skyrim's sturdy people, but this is about as far from "realism" as can be. More muscular body probably makes sense, but not this. I still think the vanilla body is just about perfect.

I am having really weird problem with dragons. They look normal from distance, but when they land (or fly around me), the textures look blurred and like if they were 1% of their real resolution or something. The only mod I use that changes the textures is the Bellyaches one, nothing else. https://www.mediafire.com/view/teabjcq2c7bukvt/dragon_texture.jpg What makes it even more weird is that when a dragon dies and drops down, the texture changes back into normal. Has anyone else ever experienced something like that?

One example I could find (I don't remember which folders they were when I first posted): hrdlc2texturesdlc01architecturedawnguarddfloor01.dds is not present in the resulting hires optimized textures folder, but is in Dawnguard optimized textures instead.

Um, hello?

Is there any such functionality in MO? If yes, I can't find it. I originally wanted to simply copy the contents of modlist.txt, but quickly realized it was in an inverted order for some reason, which is useless if you want to post it somewhere.

Are you sure about that? How does it provide any additional stability? Is there any proof for that? There's not a single word about that from the author.

You can stop right there. I have the same kind of card you do, and use mostly 2k textures, with very few 4k ones (really an insignificant number). I even went through my mods and replaced certain 2k ones with 1k versions when possible and appropriate (from my point of view) - and yet, the average VRAM usage is like 3,5GB. And I am not even sure whether some are not already offloaded to ENB at that point (if I even understand correctly how it works). Whenever I fast travel anywhere near Windhelm (outside of city), I instantly hit 4GB and the game lags the sh*t out of me (until some textures are dropped or whatever happens in the background). Long story short: NOONE is ready for 4k textures yet.

The section about the forums. The name of that category is a complete nonsense and makes it easy to miss, though.

Yes, I already started a thread about it in the appropriate section.

You're not alone :) But it might be a very long time before we can use it :(

nevermind

When I try to search for "The Beauty of Skyrim" (including or excluding the quotation marks), I don't get any results. There's a thread called The Beauty of Skyrim - Dungeons (by raiserfx) though. Am I doing anything wrong, or is there a problem somewhere?
