  1. No problem, this is not useless, it may help others with same problem I read this earlier but had no time to post then I was going to suggest exactly what you have tried as I've seen this sort of thing in windows before.
  2. I have studied false ESM issuie as I became aware of the new USkP (Unofficial Skyrim Patch) update used this method and was going to require Wrye Bash to be updated. Arthmoor the main Unofficial Patches modder posted this on Wrye Bash's Bethesda Forums stating that it needed updating to handle Though I respect his abilities as a modder his tact and research abilities can be lacking as this totally unfounded and hasty assessment of Mod Organizer shows. Why? He mistook the main feature of the virtual data folder as a flaw because he just didn't try to find out at all. Live Another Life - Page 306 - Skyrim Uploaded Files - The Nexus Forums This made me unsure he would even try and get mod Organizer sorted so I checked and on unnoficial Patches suppot Site AFK ModsUnofficial Patch ESM Conversion - Unofficial Skyrim Patches - AFK Mods So as far as this change goes which is happenning to all Unnofficial Patches were good to go [Edit] Accidently Posted when I meant to preview so quickly finished this part. I wiil add response to BSA section in this Post as well looks like we all rushed in to defend Mod Organizer from unfounded problems due to misunderstanding features as problems and from Tannin's post sounds like problem is at other end of this and they won't fix they're mistake, I however will qualify this by saying I do not know enough about this topic to say that is the case, just it appears to be. I would need to do more research of the subject. I was defending the Unnofficial Patches Team's work last week on Nexus as well.
  3. The Installer is just a self-extracting 7-Zip file. This will not do anything but extract contents to the chosen folder. My understanding, this is because of one Mod Organizer for each game feature, as only last games Mod Organizer shortcuts would exist. The game is only chosen after installing Mod Organizer so manual shortcuts must be made if you want them.
  4. All input from STEP Mods welcome, we all have ideas but are all open to other opinions. If they're good source don't matter. Technically Wolf is a contraction, not a Acronym so I can let that slide watch out for his claws though if you get too close his full Acronym is TBBW I'll leave that one undefined for you too figure out.
  5. @Aiyen you didn't give wrong advice it was only once wolverine2710 saw content of question that correct place could be pointed out I was about to make a reply that said same as wolverine2710 when he did it For future reference of any reading correct procedure is If topic already exists post in it, even old topics will move to top of list with new post Otherwise a new topic should be made Tannin won't let me use Torture Chambers in STEP Dungeons so you will not be punished for making a mistake and I so wanted to try them thumbscrews out !
  6. Tannin Made the User Interface Using Qt Libraries v4.8.5 for Windows (VS 2010) His Build ReadMe on Mod Organizer / Code / [36f8ab] @ SourceForge.net States and if you look inside DLLs folder of Mod Organizer you will see all current Qt DLL's are v4.8.4 As well as the Dark.QSS file in Stylesheets folder being a text file that is reasonably simple to edit and basically a renamed CSS file In the Tutorials folder you will find JavaScript Files [.JS] which are Text Files commonly used in WebPages as are CSS files Also There are QML Files [.QML] which and I'm making an educated guess based on obvious simalarities to XML and HTML also WebPage Files My guess is Qt Markup Language and these are Text Files which Qt website describes as Before Forum Move took over all my Time and PriorityI did some experimenting with the Tutorial Text Files The basics are straight forward (If you've watched Tutorials this will make more sense) QML Files make the Boxes that contain tutorials text and also the red outline boxes used to to highlight the current subjest of the Text JavaScript Files create the Tutorial Text That is basically all there is to it It's very much like how a web Page is made the complexity of Web Pages is in the interactions of the Text Files which are programs written in is a language The Whole Mod Organizer Interface is Complex Whereas the Stylesheet DoubleYou is manipulating and the Tutorials I've just described are much easier to understand and change than the entire UI (User Interface) Still a program like the code used on this (Source above shows code) [b]Qt Markup Language[/b]on here that does Qt Markup Language makes text bold easy when you know and [b][color=#ff0000]Qt Markup Language[/color][/b] or [color=#ff0000][b]Qt Markup Language[/b][/color]does Qt Markup Language See its easy (even easier with buttons above so on here why bother using manual way) final tip you can do but no button for so this has to be done manually [spoiler]Spoiler tags hides anything that is between them[/spoiler]Like this If you play around use a new version of Mod Organizer not your game Version leave that alone and you wont break it you can have many versions at once just don't mix them up
  7. Suggestion There are one or two other videos that give good begginers advice know they are not your work but would be good to have them here also as I've always found no matter how good my core advice is John understood when I said it This Way Jim only got the idea when I said it That Way More ways we say it the more people will understand, I don't think of it as ones better than the other just as the whole is greater than the separate parts.
  8. >V< Means what, see my "Spoiled" post last paragraph for the correct way to use acronyms, basically Define on First Use in a post. Spoiler is a good description of what it does, spoils my words of wisdom. I explained my reasoning in another thread but this is an example as I have no idea what you mean by this. It may be that although in the post I joked about the Texting and Twitter Generation gap there is a significant trend towards this sort of language problem I know typing out words is a ball ache which is why I suggest defining acronyms on first use. It might have meant just the Wiki, as this is from memory or IIRC (If I Recall Correctly), I read that proper language using full punctuation and avoiding Text-speak was requested on STEP. Even if it only applied on Wiki then, it should apply also on the Support Forums where accuracy is essential, both when giving and recieving advice clarity of thought and descriptions will only be benificial to all involved and later readers. I am a New Moderator of this support forum and as such must be an example of good practice when I am asking others to follow that example. So if my posts take a longer time for me to write and for you to read setting that example so be it. If you take 6 minutes to read a post the writer probably spent at least 60 minutes on it. I have never sent a text message, I do not use FaceF*ck or Tw*tter (whoops typos edited) and never will. I am by no means a technological dinosaur, I am typing this on a very expensive PC with three 27 inch screens giving 7680x1440 pixels of eyefinity goodness. My objection to phones is small sreens covered by a keyboard and price not technology and FaceF*ck or Tw*tter (whoops typos edited again) are security and the so called "Friends" counting obsession. Friends are a rare and precious commodity devalued by applying it to aquaintances. My Definitions Aquaintance: someone you have met whether online or in person but you know nothing about them Associate: Someone you socialise with in person or online people you work with (most people you know are in this category) Close Associates: As above but limited to those you know well (this is the limit of purely online associations you cannotbe friends because you cannot know each other well enough) Friends: someone you reall know and trust personally (The most rare and precious relationship not all partners would qualify) you will have very few friends in your life, trust is paramount. How many people would you trust with your money, all of it for months on end without ever thinking they might take some. Your Partner? If you can honestly name one, they are your friend but don't tell FaceF*ck or Tw*tter (whoops typos edited yet again) Right must end or I'll trap phazer11 between two Walls of Text and he'll have to blast his way out (and that Star Trek reference reminds me My Name is not, it's from Black Uhuru, the Jamaican Reggae Band and I believe their use comes from Swahili and it means Freedom) Last brick in Wall, nothing personal meant phazer11 it's just my warped (Star Trek again) Northern English sense of humour teleporting (enough of bloody Star Trek) into your head.
  9. Thought it would be It is YouTube not having windowed videos that is real problem
  10. This is why I posted to give people choices I have Neo's linked version and a pure 2k verssion but not seen this in recent searches and dont remember where I got it from so zipped torrent file and attached I am seeding but redownloaded one file to check others were as well as my PC only on when I use it.
  11. I've been wanting to speak to you about this wolverine2710 but waited until you finished holiday. I've seen references to Plutoman101 author of ASIS (Automatic Spells Increased Spawns) also being author of SkyBash in posts by Leviathan1753 author of SkyProc, Automatic Variants and SUM (SkyProc Unified Manager) They seem to have worked closely together but Plutoman101 and Leviathan1753 have both abruptly stopped posting the last Skyrim posts being May and all Modding activity ceased as well. I discovered yesterday on a further search that Leviathan1753 posted some comments on his Oblivion Mod DLL (Dynamic Leveled Lists) forum on 5th October but thats all no indication of why either stopped modding so abruptly I know you've done a Lot of work on Automatic Variants so was wondering if you know anything about this specifically is there some issue with SkyProc which would cause these long term modders to stop so suddenly My next course of action will asking TES5Edit Programmers Zilav and Hlp for advice on the best way to develop a Automatic Plugin Merging / Compatibility Patching Tool [Edit] Hidden by request as apparently the written word without distraction of pictures otherwise called a wall of text must intimidate the young ankle biters of the texting and tweeting generations. There you go not quite a tweet length but if it helps the poor young things overcome there fear of the Word of Uhuru I'll oblige as my undeniable logical analysis must be overwhelming. (For educational purposes) This is called sarcasm, as the unavoidable truth is although I may have hidden a small section (another sarcasm example) this edit to explain this out of the ordinary behaviour from me has actually increased the "wall of text". PS the text underneath is part of the original but guess it was to far down [End Edit] In this brief comment all opinions are mine alone (what do you mean by thinking, "It's a wall of text not brief at all" check my detailed advise posts this is very brief and you whose thinking "DNRTL" first what have I said about Defining Acronyms it's DNRTL (Did Not Read Too Long) or for those that shorten even this Acronym DRTL (Didn't Read Too Long) it took me ages to figure that alien concept out and to it I reply YDNTYRI (You Do Not Read Therefore You Remain Ignorant) and you would never have understood that acronym without my definition. Other opinions are available if required however if you consider my opinions controvertial that is your bias speaking my bias has already spoken!
  12. Just wondering is that as big as the embedded videos can be if it is fine most may full screen them but that stops running Mod Organizer with videos and following guide Which may be of some help to new users with early ones especially as layout though still similar is not quite the same
  13. All Windows versions come in OEM and Retail When I got my Gaming PC April I could choose either for it I chose the Retail Windows 7 Ultimate but could get OEM. Having said that even OEM can be transfered but you may have to register it to new machine the difference is it's a permenent transfer where as theoretically a retail licence allows you to use on as many different machines as you wish and to switch between them as long as you only use it on one machine at a time (not at the same time basically) [Edit] Why Ultimate tend to be retail is reason I got retail. If you buy ultimate it's usually because you want no restrictions and OEM is restriction so not usually chosen by Ultimate buyers but you can get it.
  14. Neo is correct I was looking at his guide for first time when I discovered modding Skyrim. It was a day or two after SRO was removed from Nexus and searching found this and downloaded . All other versions I've seen are preselected Packages with this no assumptions are made it's all available files which is why I posted as some like to make there own choices
  15. This is should be Next Big Challenge I've been Looking into this and Wrye Bash has basically been stalled on just Level List Patching from the start of Skyrim until forever it looks likeMod Organizer doees not need this capability it can run any program with it much like we currently use Wrye Bash in Mod Organizer for Bashed Patches This is a problem of feature bloat that can make programs too general and not actually good at its basic function so Tannin has said he would rather use another program through Mod Organizer and keep it focused on its Main purpose A Lean Mean Mod Organizing Machine Thats what it should always be Only one candidate of existing utilities seems a likely choice and that is SkyBash by KurtCop [Edit] this one I'll do myself See my next post for spoiler explanation [End Edit] It is based on SkyProc However both SkyProc's Author Leviathan1753 SkyBash's Author KurtCop both stopped posting or updating abruptly around May and I have no idea why or if they will return Nothing else I can find is trying to do this functionality, which STEP users would love to have, as Levelled Lists is a poor showing two years after Skyrim's release!
  16. Just as Title says Mod Organizer v1.0.7 Released on Nexus
  17. Just seen this I told him to delete that comment on Nexus and he said it didnt work but didn't see his Ini's myself hard not to assume what is very basic to me is for others but even so looks like it got him to register on here One thing he said that I never think about as I use AdBlock, was hope STEP doesn't have Ads I checked using my unused IE and posted on Nexus No Ads on STEP If it helps folks to register all the better
  18. I woudnt assume that, it's copies of links to the mods he lists on YouTube which are what he's added inbetween Vids so definately not an install order which should never be assumed about a mod list only if explicitely stated and even then I'd double check.
  19. Not Sure if this is of use but all the downloads I've seen are Someones selection from these Downloaded These just after Nexus banned Starac and forgot I had Them Skyrim Realistic Overhaul 1_1 1024k-5400-1-1.7z Skyrim Realistic Overhaul Dawnguard 1024k-5400-.7z Skyrim Realistic Overhaul Dawnguard-5400-.7z Skyrim Realistic Overhaul v1_1 part 2-5400-1-1.7z Skyrim Realistic Overhaul v1_1 part 3-5400-1-1.7z Skyrim Realistic Overhaul v1_1-5400-1-1.7z.7z Skyrim Realistic Overhaul v1_6 Update 1024k-5400-1-6.7z Skyrim Realistic Overhaul v1_6 Update 2048k-5400-1-6.7z the files without size info are 2048k I believe this was all current files at the time and attached file contains link to download them
  20. Purpose of Pack This is Not a Pack for Using to Play Skyrim it is purely a testing Pack. Testing What? This is for testing possible ways of Making Automatically Set up Profiles in Mod Organizer. Not fully Automatic because Nexus won't allow Automatic Download of Mods so as close as possible but manual Downloads. Full Automation would require Mod Hosting, which is another matter entirely. Desired Result Profile with Mod Priorities matching STEP:Core and Any Pack causing Browser Tabs to be Opened to each Mod Page in Order for user to Download Exact name of Download(s) is required. Some Mods would be need multiple options Downloaded Current Progress Currently in Information Gathering Mode Discovering what Packs Mod Data will be so nothing definite happening yet
  21. Know this is Old but my question arises from the Edit not original post and I got here from a link in SRO Mod topic about the missing contentThe missing Contents of this post are being added to Wiki ?! Why remove contents of post ? Adding them to the Wiki does not require removal from post this makes no sense
  22. My bad thought I'd messed up using phone [Edit] However it is about this Pack linked to in Original post Pack:Uhuru's Mod Organizer Testing Pack with general pack questions and suggestions because the Pack in Question is a Test Pack for intergrating into Mod Organizer Profiles All Core Pack Setups to make automatic profiles but as still in first stage of researching Packs and was my very first attempt at building a Test Pack I did not Specify this and posted in main Pack Forum rather than support only my Last qestion concerned actual support If I need to open Thread for this enterprise I will I started pack after raising this Topic in Pm's with z929669 concerning new Official Mod Organizer Support Forum on STEP which has been my main Focus and as most discussion of Packs as been closed for users now I'm Alpa Testing system and with my specific focus a lot of my questions will be more general than usual support questions Guidance on where to post would be welcome and where was this when I do not understand response was made that is what made me think here was not right place
  23. OK this is Mod Organizer Forum for any Game Now and I am not Fallout user however I do know Most Fallout Problems have solutions if they are FoMod Installers Mod Organizer should handle them it has two different FoMod handlers the NMM one and another one try whats set by default and if it doesnt work you can switch them in settings Plugin Menu Another option is to search Skyrim Nexus Mod Organizer Forum it was Main Forum and move has only just happenned On either there or here GSDFan is a Fallout with Mod Organizer user and does know what he talks about so hope that helps for now he may answer this question soon but you will proberbly find old answer anaway if my general help isn't enough
  24. This was announced on Mod Organizer's Nexus Post Tab a couple of days ago but we haven't got it on here yet and if it's not sunk in what I'm on about This Forum is now the Official Mod Organizer Support Forum Ever Since STEP made this we've seen how much better it is so Tannin gathered up all his main supporters and we came up with a battle plan derusted the Weapons and Armour (and were they rusty) Two days ago we crossed the Border between Nexus and STEP and made a successful takeover raid the Mod Organizer Support Forum is now under Tannin's Control and his Trusted Men will be keeping this place "Mod Organized" from now on I thought the whole of STEP could be ours if we just kept marching forward but Tannin's the Boss and he wants this section only, He's right of course Wrye Bash (the next province over) is in disorder and we don't want to deal with that problem. Seriously though STEP has kindly invited Tannin and his Supporters on Nexus Forums to run this subforum for the benefit of all Mod Organizer Users This does not mean abandoning Nexus. New Releases will be on Nexus no changes with that and after much discussion of alternatives the main advisors will post all advise here and once forum is properly organised (This setup being so new and STEP Teams priority is Core / Pack system so threads have just been moved here from all over old STEP forum) and the Wiki updated which has happening since September on a Sandbox version at the moment (DoubleYou is main man doing so but all help welcome) we will stop posting answers on Nexus completely but will post links to answers on here and Wiki and only stop if questions scease being asked on Nexus. Nudging Users to STEP rather than Force (Tannin won't let me use Torture Chamber we found in Basement so no Fun either). Of course we al have real lives and are all at opposite ends of the Globe as well so things take time STEP has made Tannin a moderator and extended the offer too his main supporters on Nexus Forums we are still getting organized Tannin's main responsibility is and always will be Mod Organizer Coding and his supporters will do most of the moderating of this Forum and keeping Wiki updated We don't want STEP users to think we're displacing them some of us use STEP or Skyrim Revisited already and it's the knowledge about Modding available here as well as better facilities that make this move so agreeable Also the new Packs will widen the Modlist on STEP and Mod Organizer is expected to become the main if not the only Mod Manager on STEP Before the backlash to that last statement begins let me first say that is from z929669 STEP Admin himself and those who know him and how much of a Wrye Bash Supporter he is will know with how much regret he said that. It's a very sad fact that Wrye Bash even with the very loyal and long standing support of many Morrowind, Obivion, Fallout and New Vegas Users has just not made progress with Skyrim and to my fresh eyes (I've only been modding 6 months) the biggest mistake made was trying to remerge all the versions and make a Skyrim version at the same time. Wrye himself made them separate making it work with Skyrim first should have been the priority. Once that was done mergiong could have been a goal but not both time has now shown that was a mistake but I'm not trying to Bash it or Wrye the Mod Maker (thats a Bashed Patch's Job) just saying it's supporters are pessimistic and understanably after so long without progress. Enough of others we are here to support Tannin and Mod Organizer not worry what other managers are doing and when we are done neither will you !!!
  25. Still Alpha build so know things will change Questions Adding Mods to a list gives Mod Name and Link to Host Page and all else is manual with posts elsewhere stating features to be added some clarity on these features and a will / may be added modifier would helpAutomating Wiki page building of STEP: Pack is main aim I know but will Mod Priority / Install Order be automated in any way at all or is Wiki page building the limit of automationSome Feature Suggestions Separate section for Mods that don't go in Data Folder Remove STEP:Core Mods or another Seperate SectionThis causes confusion and seperating will avoid duplicationFile Level Selection and Checksum VerificationAdd Mod choice that opens Enter New Mod SectionMay be Missing Something but not obvious Right Got to Pack Main Build Page Set up Page Pack:Uhuru's Mod Organizer Testing Pack A few minor niggles like spelling error in pack Name "Test ing" instead of "Testing" changed that easy enough using move feature that I'd read Smile44's posts about but when trying to solve Main Issue below I used Edit Source Page Tool and saw for each Mod List }} {{PackTableHeader |name=Test Table 1 |displayname=Yes |pack=Uhuru's Mod Organizer Test ing Pack }} On each Mod List and was just luck I found it Main Issue Using Add Mod List Button I choose Mods and add description (Basic as just Testing) and Preview Looks Fine Save Page saves it and all still there when I click again on Add Modlist again But Main Page Modlist remains blank and no Modlist appears [Edit] Not understanding what I'm asking could be because this is not where I thought it was which is in general Pack Thread not support thread I was on my Phone when it was done so it's got mixed up somehow Only very last part Main Issue is about support most is about Packs in General if a moderator could move to Main Packs Forum
