I actually like that idea very much Monty, lets make that happen. I don't feel the need to wait on this, TC was quite happy with Farlo' site.

Unfortunately that doesn't list all the mods that become redundant with each fix.

Tracking site for included mods .

Its incompatible with any mods that alter food, wildlife, and/or water unless there is a patch. It is well done and I expect lots of patches to be forthcoming (many already available).

Boris is doing a hardware test to aid development of the new ENB injector check out his site here if you want to help.Damn I'm at 6.5 fps time to retire my 8 year old slagheap, you can only upgrade so many times. :facepalm: [Moved to the Non-Step related forum, to avoid the possible misconception that this benchmark is directly relevant to STEP performance.]

Well better dynamic snow is a no brainer for inclusion, theres nothing even close that I'm aware of. And the lush grass and trees are also very nice but are heavy fps hitters. Cloaks of skyrim is gorgeous and lore friendly I recommended it on the nexus forums. Crimson tide conflicts with enhanced blood which is much more realistic.

Farlo was working on something like this on another site and it never quite made the jump over here or to the wiki, I believe he got overwhelmed by Uni finals, he'll be back soon to take it up I think.

Lojack is still waiting for his internet to be restored, no word for 2 weeks now.

Yeah its available on the nexus as well Skyrim Ini Tweaks for Wrye Smash I posted about it on our previous site I think.

Yay I learned something, very useful info.

Where are you looking? it all looks exactly the same to me.

The mod does what it says and has no conflicts. That said I don't like what it does, if you don't want to wear a quiver than don't use a bow. If you don't like how the quiver looks than there are plenty of other mods to resolve this, unfortunately they all conflict with Realistic Ragdolls except for Closer Quivers and Longer Arrows which luckily does the job quite nicely and replaces proper length arrows .

These are totally awesome, immersion for loading screens.

This mod is extremely well done and perfectly complementary with all the other STEP mods. This is because it was designed to work with 5 other STEP mods (Static Mesh Improvement Mod - SMIM by Brumbek, Re-Defined Dungeons WIP by Gizmo, Nordic ruins objects retexture by Mordimer, Ruins urn retexture by Mordimer, HD Linens by rivybeast ). Highly recommended. Improved candles and HD Claws must be uninstalled before installing this (they have additional files that will conflict and look like crap), all other conflicts should be overwritten by this (should be installed after Redefined dungeons and skyrim redesigned). I recommend HD Claws and Improved Candles be removed from STEP.

you can't just drop your ugrids back down, you need to make a new game in order to drop it back down once you've raised it. There are alternate ways to do it but I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Good quote from the beth forums.

We are specifically citing the ability to support modern memory sticks above 4GB and implying that it runs games more smoothly than previous x64 implementations. Win 7 is better at these 2 things by a small margin, upgrading to 8GB plus is a very marginal stability increase as well. If you can cite proof that the information provided is erroneous or incomplete I am happy to include your citations. We grant wiki editing privileges after 30+ productive posts to the forums.

Skyrim Installation guide updated further to tie in with DDSopt guide.

The current plan is to put STEP up on the wiki site after it is released, and the wiki will be available as a pdf download. This has not yet received final approval by TC.

This was in one of the original STEP builds IIRC certainly worthy of another look for a hardcore gameplay pack.

If you are doing a comparison of all the graphic overhaul packs don't forget Insanity's texture pack I've used many of these individually and haven't been disappointed.

Well 3,000 unique downloads and no confirmed issues reported yet on the forum so I'd say its fairly safe.

I decided to actually write about skyrim today rather than mods and shiny tools, more to come tonight.

Control Panel, System Security, System, System Protection, System Restore on Windows 8 its the same for win 7 with probably some minor variations in names I forget. You'll get a listing of every program intall and update ever done on your computer. Just rollback one step at a time and backup each exe. By the way if you have up to 1.3 that's a fine place to start 1.2 was a complete catastrophe.

Yeah windhelm is notorious for bad meshes, SMIM will clean that all up given time.
