This Project seems to be almost at a halt. What is the future of STEP?

SkyUI is now at 3.4

I believe that with the massive amount of mods that STEP uses, It can be difficult to use 4K+ textures on all that offer. I had max resolution textures for every mod, which increased memory usage. I also introduced another variable (uGrids 7), which caused issues. I found that any uGrid setting higher than 5 conflicted with Distant Detail (Maybe there needs to be a note next to this item as a caution). I haven't tested any texture resolution higher than 2K with my "very clean" install.  They might work now that my uGrids are default 5.  I might introduce one at a time and see how that goes, but for now I'm happy with 2K.

Skyrim Performance Monitor   This will show you pretty much everything.

only if this game were coded and optimized better.... I thought they promised a DX11 version of the game, what ever happened to that?

The issue has been resolved. I believe it was the 4K textures. I have them all at 2K and running smooth. The max that I hit for Memory was 2.8GB with an average of 2.3. Using an ENB as well. 50-60fps

I started from scratch. Clean vanilla, Now I get an error when I quit. After I quit, I get Skyrim has stopped responding and I have to "alt tab" to clear it. Any thoughts on what's causing this? Edit: I rebooted and the issue went away

I can't wait until the next gen consoles come out and force the PC game industry to code 64bit games And optimize them properly. Quality should come first and foremost not a quick buck

Not an issue , not offended.  I was just curious on where you're coming from.  I know nothing about AMD cards.  I'm just an nvidia fan boy when it comes to gaming gfx.  I just want my game to be playable with STEP and look good too.  It's funny cause I'm at a stable 60fps even at CTD, no stuttering at all.  I took the Vsync off and was getting ~75-82fps.  It has to be the way the game was coded and it's engine capabilities.

I will set the uGrids back to 5 and will post my findings. Thanks for your input so far.

I will test it at 5 and post my findings

Why do you keep saying my system can't handle it? My GFX card is one of the best out there besides the 690 or Titan. I not sure what your getting at.

I'm getting the same issues, check out my post here for all the technical info.  I'm using STEP 2.2.2 on a clean build. 4K textures.  When it hits ~3 boom CTD

What should be my next steps? It should be noted that Extreme STEP should be limited to 2K textures if 4K is too much for the game. Someone please correct me if i'm off base The STEP wiki (Performance, Baseline, and Extreme) doesn't match up with what is on the main page (Core, FSP Impact, VRAM Impact, Performance, Quality) and those pages are blank. Also I don't even see what mod versions are for any of the mentioned above. Has anyone even worked on these categories?

So if I change my 4K textures to 2K then I should be good? Why do they even have 4K if the game can't handle it?
