afonik Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Any special reason for not merging "Improved closefaced helmets for Undeath" in the Improved Closedfaced Helmets Patches Merged? Link to comment
dunc001 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Dear Darth Mathias, sorry if i have this wrong, but on your animal merge, you have Skytest Creature Extension.esp added. I have downloaded the recommended mods on your SRLE Extended - LOTD page, but cannot see this mentioned.esp. The Skytest Vanilla and DLC Creature Extension mods has instead skytest real wildlife skyrim.esp. Am i missing something or is this(your merge an earlier edition). Would it be possible to shed some light on it, it would be most helpful. Thank you for your hard work on your pages....... Yours sincerely BerndaroyRedownload it. The first upload had the wrong esp in it. The mod author has now fixed this. Link to comment
Darth_mathias Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 Any special reason for not merging "Improved closefaced helmets for Undeath" in the Improved Closedfaced Helmets Patches Merged?it ends up in the bash patch so no need to add to merge. Link to comment
Darth_mathias Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) After testing for every setting in disparity's skill bonuses and racial skills I came to the conclusion that you should change them from Starting skills &xp rate to either Starting Skills or Fortify Skills (if you want the buff power) for Skill Bonuses and Starting Skills or XP Rate for Racial Skills..I'm definitely going to change them as I used the old settings and with every skill between 90-100 I only reached level 58 iirc..as with these settings I got between 72-78..This been said I'm dropping Skytest Dawnguard and Dragonborn as they are kinda redundant with the DLC Creature extension; DCO - awesome mod but it's a definitely "no-no" for my warrior build as the dragonrend shout makes them land only for 1-2 seconds..I think I'll put back EMDR (maybe an easier version) and ROTE (load before AAE) and maybe drop Diverse Dragons (?)...OK I will consider you recommendation. (Paul if you have sometime and willing to test these options out I'd like to hear your conclusion too) plus anyone else that want to chime in. EMDR was dropped cos everyone moaned how difficult dragons were plus i didn't want Deadly Dragons + DCO + Diverse Dragons + EMDR that would of been insane. I would be happy to consider dropping DCO for EMDR if enough people would prefer it that way. I don't think Skytest DLC Creature extension actually covers every animal yet unless i missed an update.

I don't think Skytest DLC Creature extension actually covers every animal yet unless i missed an update.I know about EMDR that's why I said maybe an easier version..but DCO makes it impossible to fight with melee weapons..anyways for me even the EMDR version from SRLEX makes it easier to fight compared to DCO.As for Skytest DLC Creature extension covers all the animals from Skytest Dawnguard..so some CRing is needed prior or after the merge..

Stat adjuster would be deadly dragons / emdr... ai overhaul is dco. Diverse Dragons is mostly responsible just for updating the dragon lvl lists to add variety. I'm not sure how dropping that would solve anything. or am I missing something? Link to comment

mavanaic Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 can i ask have you done the Mirrak fight with DCO installed?Yeah..there was a bug that made him invincible lol...you have to kill the dragons before you attack him or simply disable dco before the fight Link to comment
Darth_mathias Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 Yeah..there was a bug that made him invincible lol...you have to kill the dragons before you attack him or simply disable dco before the fightmmm OK that bug has always been at the back of my mind and makes me consider dropping DCO. I'll have a bit of think about what i want to do and achieve with dragons. Link to comment

I'll have a bit of think about what i want to do and achieve with dragons.For me, I would never considered dropping DCO, if not for that dragonrend thing..and with aae which makes him level 120 with 5000 health it's too hard unless if you like fighting with godmode and have to fight for hours Link to comment

Edit you could try this https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40277/? Longer Dragonrend by Gio or this https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/37738/?

Smokingjoe1982 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Pretty sure I know the answer, but I'll ask anyway just in case. I am not a fan of Vigor at all, and prefer Wildcat. Would it mess things up if I removed it from my game? Assuming it would be bad as it is likely tied into the CR. Same question also applies to Bring Your Silver. Link to comment
