Will it pose any benefits besides OCD and cosmetics?

How confident are we about this step? Sounds risky doing it for entire load order at once

Hey guys. I am having this weird anomaly with Hunterborn where i randomly find dead WOLF carcass, but when i pick it up it turns into ELK carcas. Not that i am complaining, but still, something is off here. Have anyone experienced something like that?

Good to know. Due to endless loop of modding i never actually gotten to Solstheim and Raven Rock yet. I am still however toying with the idea of some day completing Skyrim. P.S. Ah... Who am i kidding...

What's the adavntages of these over Noble textures, or Noble don't cover these two areas?

Haha, i was just reading on LE page that it's almost ready for SE! I guess it's play time for me ;) Did some stress testing yesterday and spawned 25 stormcloaks, 25 imperials, and Alduin for good measure... Needless to say, it was Epic! But no crahes and no abnormal FPS drops, which is really nice

BTW - i couldn't figure out a LOD settings which would give me a reasonable compromise between performance and ridiculous pop-in/transitions (been trying all kinds of DynDOLOD, and LodGen settings for nearly a week), so i went to ugridstoload=7 and haven't noticed any anomalies or performance impacts so far. And scenery looks so much nicer without ugly 2D LODs everywhere :)

That is correct. In fact, after a bit of tweaking and learning, i went back to "smash.all" setting, and tweaked my LO instead where it made sense. Smash patch showed me a lot of LO changes i would have missed otherwise. The only part that i had to manually tweak is removal of "use opposite gender animation" was not being carried forward with correct LO so i've cleaned it manually in my small CR patch that goes dead last in my LO and basically includes any fixes as well as few tweaks (arrow speed, bounty increases, etc.). And i've changed timber wolf level back to 1 since level 4 introduced in AAE plus changes from Animal Tweaks made them ridiculous at level 1 hero LOL

Welcome to the club :). I have posted this exact request on mods page but not getting any answers from authors yet

So i finally finished my setup! Did some major refactoring and cleanup yesterday (merged over 80 plugins, deleted non needed mods, re organized merge profiles to new naming convention, etc, etc). Now since my setup is roughly 30-40% different from the guide, using provided CR patches was not an option and when i peeked into what bash patch contains, i got worried, it's some scary stuff in there lol. So i've started looking at mator smash, and i was immediately sold! It made a MUCH more correct and extensive CR, with only minor custom CR needed to be done manually. It also helped me identify a number of important load order tweaks that would have been a pain to do an old way of manually going through conflicts in xEdit. If you guys aren't using it yet, i would highly recommend you start at least looking at what it can do compared to bash+merge. It pretty mucb saved me weeks of doing manual CR... Game runs incredibly smooth and looks amazing. For probably the first time ever i am confident in my CR patch (who ever done one manually wiil understand lol). I will be starting playthrough very soon, and will keep you guys posted. Maybe do some screenshots and character story too :)

Are you starting game properly or coc from main menu? I went back to Nordic snow a while ago, Fluffy was just not looking right for me, but from what i remember footprints were working.

Try using wide and magic instead of lantern. I find it better and more immersive

Hey sirjesto, have you looked at conflicts between LOTD and 3DNPC? It seems that 3DNPC is using default skyrim.esm records and overriding LOTD. I don't this NAVM records merge at runtime, so this might be an issue?

To be honest, i can live happily without CACO/CCO/WAF at all. For all the compatibility patching required i just don't see the benefit.

Did you select any preset (i.e. Medium)?

Forget about dyndolod until very end, when you have all your mods installed, conflicts resolved, etc, etc

Yeah. Just saw your edits now

Yikes. Glad to hear you got esms restored. Must have been an error introduced by cleaning Also, i would recommend to test your game after 5-10 mods. It will make it much easier to catch bugs early on as well as to find a culprit. I usually coc riverwood from main menu, go inside the houses, talk to people, use crafting, then run to whiterun, do same tasks there, then run to falkreath via riverwood. If i dont get any issues i move on to the next batch of mods and repeat

So what you guys think of bash tag suggestion script? I've never used it yet. Is it trust worthy?

"You need to be sure you have papyrus utilities mod installed." - already a part of guide "You need to extract and copy over the interface files from the oldrim Frostfall.bsa" - extracting bsa for pretty much half the mods in a guide. Copying, well, not sure if someone who's not comfortable copying files should even start tackling this guide ;) "You need to create a dummy plugin for the old skyUI.esp." - available on Nexus to download

"yes i know i can use the conversion steps but that also goes along the line of bad SSE ports. Well yes I know Frostfall was ported before SKSE64 was out blah blah blah but it the same" Why is it 'bad' port? To me it's cleaner port than what we're already doing for bunch of mods in a guide (i.e. saving in CK, NIF optimize, etc). Especially given that mod author ported it himself, and all that's left to do is to re-enable skse stuff, which should be harmless as skse kept API compatible with 32 bit version Can you clarify what's your concern?

Yup, same here. Both are working as far i've tested

To be honest, i can't think of anything that would crash the ENTIRE tamriel worldspace. The only thing that can do it is dyndolod when used some mega settings, like full models for everything.
