Thank you StEP Staff for the quick replies as always.

Working on a new install... >Downloading Complete Crafting Overhaul... The guide says nothing about this patch but it is there.... *see image So do we need it? Was it just forgotten in the guide? Thank you!

Hi.I have been with STEP for a couple of months now but I seem to run into various issues that need addressing.I have been following the guide completely.Information:System- Intel i7 3770k OCNvidia Geforce 660ti -Available memory - 4gb, dedicated - 2gb.16gb RAMUsing Mod Organizer;Using ini tweaks for max graphics (as stated in 3rd party links)I will sometimes CTD 30 minutes into gameplay or when a mage casts a spell in my face.No corrupted textures but sometimes I will experience tearing far in the distance (but I think this is sometimes normal?)My questions...:When installing STEP do I install Step:Core before STEP:Extended or can I install them at the same time?Basically do I install the "green light" mods or can I just go straight down the list in order?-I have some mods I would like to include in my game outside of STEP.Here is a small list. Can you point out any incompatibilites.Categorized Favorites menuUnread books glowElven Overhaul(immersive animation)AppachiiSkyHairAlternative Start Live another LifeBadolier Bags and Pouchest3ndos skyrim redoneGlowing OreAchieve ThatApocalypse Magic Of skyrimMidasThe Dance of DeathCombat realismImmersive ArmorImmersive WeoponsJaysus *Sharlikens Compatibility patchFrostfallCloaks of SkyrimWinter is Coming - CloaksPlayer HeadtrackingRNADClimates of TamrielELFXDynavisionWearable LanternsUFOInteresting NPSInconsequential NPCSImmersive PAtrolsSkytestImmersive CreaturesDEADLY DRAGONSDragon CombatRealvision ENBNow I understand some mods in STEP will provide patches for some of the mods listed;My question then is, do Install the patches with STEP or after STEP? And can any mods outside of STEP be installed the same time as STEP?(I seem to always have a stable game until some of the mods listed above are installed.)-As for baseline... I have installed many of the mods in STEP using a HQ replacer (mostly using 2k textures)Is this even needed? Should I follow baseline for more compatibility?I can run at about 40-50 fps using all 2k textures but I am starting to think I'd be better off with baseline if I am installing many mods outside of STEP, is this true?What am I losing? Will I even notice a difference in graphics?Thanks for the help and support.I really love the guide and it's the best out, but I am partially noob when it comes to modding. :)Edit: I have one other question...In Mod Organizer we always get the option "Merge or Replace" or whatever it is.What is usually the appropriate option? I want to make sure I am doing this right...

i7 3770k OCgforce 660ti 2gb. 16gb ram.So I have a pretty good system but,Currently I'm only testing explorers pack with step;extended.You may be right. Ive been trying to push my system to its max potential....Do you recommend I downgrade to Step Baseline? and try again?I just wasn't sure if it was something I did wrong but if it's a limit issue, that does make sense...On Step I'm using most if not all of the Higher quality optionals...Will report back with GPU-Z

I have a similar issue to of the post above.I have Step:Extended installed and it's stable.I downloaded the Explorerers pack and followed the directions (according to Step:Extended)Basically, everytime I enter certain cities (Riften, Windhelm, etc..) It CTD's. It CTD's when I enter dungeons and some houses too.Also sometimes I noticed some farmhouses and buldings will have multiple textures loading at once.Sometimes when I'm running up to a city, or establishment, The whole city will flash into white, and CTD.I've tried two days worth of conflict resolution. These problems won't go away. I might need to just get rid of the Explorers pack if I can't get some help.Anybody have any ideas what's going on?
