i quite skyrim for a bit but now back, but i want to just use the setup i had. don't care for some changes to ETAC and it feels safer also to just keep what was working til next play then update. anyway i had the load order differently but it changed when i forgot to keep the inis as read only. is this approximately how they should be loaded? because right now, i'm getting landscape gaps around the Farrier next to the Whiterun Stables

dum question prolly...but noticed NMM lists that the REGS-Cities esp has merged Better Docks Regs and Better City Entrances Reg. so does tht mean I don't need those mods esps? like how Idon't need lighthouse and sewer ones? oh and I was having lotsa navmesh pathing issues in front of Hlaalu farms (close to windhelm) but the latest 3.3 REGS seems to have fixed that. graci! edit- oh and should Better City Entrances Regs esp be after all REGS and ETAC stuff? i had it above and just read it should be below. i moved below and seems like lots of things are no longer at entrances, like spikes and bodies at Windhelm

i've used about all whiterun mods and my 2 fave are these. both are great. brimming w/ creativity and originality. but w/ problems lol... https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/30046/?tab=1&navtag=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Fskyrim%2Fajax%2Fmoddescription%2F%3Fid%3D30046%26preview%3D&pUp=1 my fave^, but has some navmesh problems and a hefty fps hit. of course there probably are some conflicts w/ my stuff. haven't tested extensively. definitely could use ELFX patch. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/36390/?tab=1&navtag=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Fskyrim%2Fajax%2Fmoddescription%2F%3Fid%3D36390%26preview%3D&pUp=1 makes wonderful use of vertical housing up the cliffs. but strangely there's quite a few homes right in the middle of the big middle wall. love'em both. wish they'd get mixed matched and fixed

hmm, i'm just using REGS Resources.esm and REGScities esp. i installed Nernie's 1.25 that was linked, Wndhelm lighthouse, and Sewers (but didn't install those their esps). the way i read it, REGS was modular and i didn't have to use ETAC. i thought REGS Cities just merged those 3 mods. so i have to install all of ETAV to use REGS Cities?

very excited to find this mod! i've been using the Nernie City modfor awhile and am happy to see this integrates it and fixes some stuff. ogg tho, whiterun looks as it usually does when i had just Nernie's installed, but when i go to Darkwater Crossing (thru coc console) none of the usual Nernie's addons are there, and i my FPS takes a dive (13-15) for the duration there, and i eventually crash. i do not have the nernie esp enabled. any ideas? thanks

uGridDistantTreeRange=35 uGridDistantCount=35 hiya. aparently those ini tweaks are in Oblivion, and i've seen 'em mentioned for skyrim. any exvidence that they make trees load farther away in Skyrim? and what are your settings for them? thnx

what's the benefit of using DDSOPT over say Optimize Textures mod or SMCO?

yep, it's a damn shame. things seemed fixed for a short bit, but no more

i have Windows, Steam, and Skyrim on a Crucial M4 SSD. mods and NMM are on a 2tb hdd. here's some pics of SPM graphs...before enboost after Realvision enb (w/ enbboost), and this is also after a freeze where Task Man showed 4.36gb page file

hoping someone can help me understand something... my specs; gtx 670 4gb, i7 3770k, 16gb corsair RAM, WINDOWS 7 pro been using RealVision ENB lately and it has the ENB Boost in it. it brought my cpu use down a lot. from like 2400 to 650. but i still crash or freeze (mostly freeze) from time to time. when i bring up Task Manager to get out of the freeze, i noticed that i can go to Performance tab and there's 2 graphs on the left. one is CPU Usage, and below that is one "Memory". from searching a bit, it seems earlier versions show that graph as "Page memory". well when i freeze and check that graph, it shows my memory at the moment of freeze as around 4.36 GB. often right at 4.36gb exactly. but if i'm using Skyrim Performance Monitor at the time of these freezes, it's numbers are still good. they'll show usually under 1gb. it may be a little higher during the freeze, but nowhere near the 3.1gb or even my old pre-enbboost numbers. so basically i'm wondering if anyone knows what that 4.36gb "page memory" is and if it's contributing to the freezes? thanks

i noticed that there's a Very High Quality setting in NI for textures, does choosing that actually make the textures better than high, since the launcher only shows up to high. and if so, what actually is changed to do that? is some setting changed in the inis? is Very high like Ultra? thanx

i disabled it in the inis, and it's on in enb. but lipsync seems the same to me whether vsync is disabled in the inis or not. it's kinda weird tho. i use ewi65's tweaked inis (mostly) and it has a vsync setting in the main Skyrim.ini (not Pref), and if i disable that, then i get screen tearing EVEN if the ENB vsync is on??

just so i understand correctly...this 3.1gb thing is about the system ram or VRAM?and using enboost, my system ram is way down according to SPM. but i'm not sure if i'm looking at the task manager correctly. i open task man, go to performance, and look to the left. there's a gauge called CPU Usage, and under that is another, Memory. i'm looking at that Memory one. is that correct? because the SPM will show at about 600mb, but i'll crash and task manager is showing 4.35 GB or some such

woops. sorry was busy and forgot my whole reason for posting. what are the "crash issues at Windhelm"? thought it might be same as mine w/ hunters camp

i always crash up around windhelm, but it's at a little hunters camp up in the hills to the left of Brandy-Mug farm. a frost troll spawns at that camp and i usually crash up there.anyway, i'm using Realvision enb w/ 202 and it seems pretty stable. my vram didn't really change at all but regular ram is waaaay down. used to be like 2400-28000mb. it's now 200-600mb
