Cool. Thank you, but don't worry about it. But I rather leave you to your project until it's ready. Just trying to help. Like your project a lot.

Nono. The animated effect skin/glow effect that sits over your character for the duration of spells like Stoneflesh/Oakflesh in Alteration school. It looked exceptionally nice. When in 1st person and casting stoneflesh you could see the effect "growing" over your arms. But now its a green shiny aura. Vanilla, yes? I dont even remember what vanilla looks like anymore, who does anyway? :) Found a clue here: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/51592/? Seems to be CUTTING ROOM FLOOR adding this. Since WAO have a compatibility patch for CFR and after using WAO this effect no longer exists. I guess that UnimeiX overlooked that.

I have tried searching around and did find some mods altering this but they are not covered in STEP. For some reason I am back with vanilla glow. Earlier I had a nice looking shader/texture that made you look as if covered in bark (oakflesh) or stone (stoneflesh). I can not figure out where this is coming from. I recently have been messing with WAO, VIVIDIAN and Immersive Sounds - compendium. Pretty sure none of those mods have any character effect replace. Apart from STEP EXT.

I have noticed this indeed. Suppose its relatively failsafe then. But which file is being used/should be used in the consequential cleaning of DG/DB? The cleaned update.esm or the original update.esm? or maybe it does not even matter?

I have seen conflicting instructions on how to clean the ESM's. Some instruct to only select the esm you are to clean. Like here, instructs to select combinations of files. For example. Cleaning update.esm, I select it together with skyrim in Tes5Edit and clean. Move the cleaned file from skyrim/data to its own folder in Modorganizer/mods, moving the mod to the top of MO and activate it. Now that I am to clean the Dawnguard.esm, I select the skyrim.esm AND UPDATE.ESM in Tes5Edit! Which update.esm is this supposed to be? The cleaned or the original update.esm? Consequentialy for Dragonborn.esm. Does it need/will Tes5Edit use the cleaned or original Update.esm? How/should I make certain that I am cleaning DG/DB.esm with the cleaned/original update.esm? Section 2: Mod Cleaning Instructions Order For Cleaning Bethesda's Master Files For Update.esm: Load Skyrim.esm and Update.esm, but only clean Update.esm. For Dawnguard.esm: Load Skyrim.esm, Update.esm, and Dawnguard.esm but only clean Dawnguard.esm. For Hearthfires.esm: Load Skyrim.esm and Hearthfires.esm but only clean Hearthfires.esm.

Upon my character being decapitated with a killmove I repeatedly get CTD. CTD happens just before the sword is about to hit the neck. Other killmoves seems to work just fine. With a little searching a found a solution. D:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Skyrim\Mod Organizer\mods\RaceMenu\SKSE\Plugins Changing these two values to 0 from their defaults in nioverride.ini. Head will now decapitate as intended.

There it is. 3.0b? Is it the files listed here? ; https://forum.step-project.com/topic/5434-wao-weather-and-ambience-overhaul-megapatch-by-unmeix/ After 2.21 main install I just swap the WeatherAndAmbienceOverhaul.esp for the WAO-VVD Listed on the step thread?

it could be the culprit. Not because they don't work but because something is wrong in your setup with those. Most desktop speakers are designed for a listening distance of 25cm. Yes, 25. Many pc audio standards still believe we use 14 inch crt monitors and have our noses right up on the glass. Speaker placement!

Great initiative on this mod. It has been a long time coming for this to happen. Thank you! I just happen to be a THX certified acoustics professional and thought I would use my expertise on the matter. Seeing it would seem as if some sounds were faint. This is a common problem with uncalibrated listening environments or software interference. (You might have found yourself jiggling your volume up and down on the TV continuously during a movie because you cannot hear what people are saying and the effects later on are deafening loud) Used an external DAC set to 48khz sampling rate and 16bit resolution (bypassing any windows 7 sound interference. Skyrim->Ears), connected to a pair of unbiased open studio headphones designed for critical listening. My listening environment is abscent of disturbing noises. My hearing index is optimal with a falloff starting at 19khz I entered the dawnstar inn and sat at the bar for 30min, this is what I heard. Hard wind Bottles tripping over on wood Glass dropped and breaking Burps 1/2/3 Creaking structural wood Moving wooden furniture on hard surface Wooden object put on surface Large Jewellery put on wooden surface small coins "poured" on solid/stone surface fiddling with object on surface Wooden lid or door shut "-Linda! What are we having for dinner" - Female calling, Girl responds "-I wonder where you are, Linda come down here right now..." - female Lively chatter - male Lively laughter - male Lively chatter - male/female Yawning - male Small thin Metal object put on surface wooden(fork or knife) Mild Coughing - male Deep coughing - male Drunken man mumbling "... the wench..." Coughing - female Shout - male Humming - male Runny nose The levels seemed fine and believable. The detail is certainly there and I had no problems identifying the cues. Although the editing of the original sounds leaves much to be desired in a few cases. For example some sounds ends abruptly. But that is beyond this mod of course.

Thank you for clearing it out. Marking this thread as solved.

I realise this, that they are indeed mods too, yes. I were not sure wether the cleaned ones I added were actually used because of how they were displayed differently in the "overwritten mods" tabs, compared to other mods. To be clear I would expect my cleaned update.esm to simply display that it overwrites update.esm and not just "data", since "data" is not a mod in itself. Suppose we can say it is an inherent limitation of how MO displays this file due to it being "base game" as you explain, rather than being an loading error or equivalent dysfunctionality of my modding process. Just for reference I include a screenie of how dawnguard.esm is displayed in the same manner.

Yes, I want to agree with what your saying. But what renders me doubtful is that the other cleaned ESMs are shown differently. For example dawnguard.esm: "Overwritten Mods - Unmanaged: Dawnguard" This one too is of course inside Skyrim/data. Why are they different?

I have lost count on much this save have been "brutalized" with reinstalls, updates to STEP. removed mods, merged compatibility patches, added mods etc. So far lvl67 over the course of a few years without any major setbacks since the memoryblock patch was introduced.

From 2.N in the STEP Extended guide I can not wrap my head around in what order things should be done. Also in what order things shall be placed in the LEFT PANE of Modorganizer. -Should run LOOT a final time after installing FNIS? -In what order in the LEFT PANE of MO should I place things? Bashed patch last? Extended patch last? FNIS is final step so maybe that one last? Sorry but the 2.N part of the guide feels like catch 22/contradictive. My character and follower have their shield floating beneath their feet (Shield surfing) and I suppose it has something to do with this. I am a returning user of STEP over the years and it keeps getting better and better. Thanks guys! https://wiki.step-project.com/STEP_Patches#Recommendations Should I set these tags on the Extended Patch from within wrye bash while creating the Bashed patch,0.esp in the next step of the guide? https://wiki.step-project.com/Dual_Sheath_Redux#Recommendations Should I stop right here and go ahead and install Better Shaped Weapons before continuing with using the java patch? https://wiki.step-project.com/Better_Shaped_Weapons#Recommendations I can not see why this is mentioned as a notice. Following STEP to the letter will produce this effect, no? Since you will install DSR after BSW and therefore loaded after the DSR in the LEFT PANE of MO?
