Skyrim Revisited Pre-Release Feedback


Recommended Posts

Posted

Interesting stats before I head out for tonight:

My "Mod Organizer/mods" directory 26.2 GB (28,212,408,320 bytes), 59,498 Files, 3,954 Folders so far. Crazy!

 

Optimization is likely to take this down quite a bit, I know for a fact I have several mods with 4k textures and 4k normal maps uncompressed in there. :)

I'm starting to think I should have gone with 2K textures rather than 4K (when available). I'm running 2x 660Ti 2GB cards and am worried the VRAM is going to be too much. I'm currently starting The People of Skyrim - so far the game is running fine (at least through the Helgen start) - but it looks like a number of textures are going to be added in the next few sections as well. If that ends up being the case, do I need to go back and reinstall each mod w/ the lower textures?

Either that or optimize them. I'm about to head to bed but created a new test character.

 

Helgen Start (Cart Ride -> Saving Inside The Keep): FPS capped @ 60 for the entire run, VRAM max was 2500MB.

 

Papyrus log: (in case anyone is curious)

Keep in mind a lot of this is initialization spam (and because my hands were bound) but it's pretty damn clean if I do say so myself considering the # of mods I have installed.

 

Good night everyone! I will try to answer what I can from work tomorrow if anything is posted.

For Troublemakers forsworn armor you have 

written:

Version: 1.51 (UNPB BBP)

Optionals: TroubleMakers ForswornArmor UNPB-BBP

 

The problem is the optional file *is* the version 1.51 called troublemakers forsworn armor UNPB-BBP.  The main files are alpha versions.  Do we get those too ?  or do we only get the optional file.

If you continued down to Riverwood, you would probably hit 2.9GB or more.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... I'm guessing that I really need to run DDSopt then!

I'm up to date.  Played for about 45 minutes.  Highly stable (much more stable than two days ago, I believe some of the recent updates have made a big difference in stability for some reason), no CTD at Bleak Falls Barrow (which is usually a problem area and very sensitive to mistakes).

 

I did DDSOPT a few large packs, but nothing fancy (no normal mapping or 2 for 1 downgrading) and I didn't make huge gains on memory, nevertheless I never went over 2.7 gb VRAM and thats going through Riverrun and a few other heavy texture places.

 

I am very satisfied with the state of the game right now.  I do think RLO and COT might be a bit dicey but thats a battle for another time.

For those who have problems that the files get in overwrite.

Did you guys maybe forget to tick off the backup option?

Cos if backup is on it will allways get in overwrite.

Just would like to clarify something pertaining to mod updates: when I manually install mods in MO, should I be entering the Nexus info so I can make the updates easier? Otherwise, if I manually update them, do I just install it as normal and MO will prompt me to overwrite?

If i could make a few suggestions for additions.   The Skree less dragons is a great tweak mod to reduce dragon attacks (which gets annoying late game).

 

And the HD ivy mod also makes a difference and is exceptionally well made.

 

The Manny caretaker mod is also worth a look.
