DarkladyLexy Posted May 16, 2019 Author Share Posted May 16, 2019 Hey, guys, I have pushed my latest changes through to Nexus Version of the guide so check the changelog. Please also note that on STEP DynDOLOD Standalone was update to v2.63 Link to comment
BMaytrix Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 was speaking with my devs and we have come to the conclusion the simplest thing to do is just wipe the skyrimcustom.ini but leave a blank copy in the profile you use to actually play the gameThank you for confirming. That's what I did. There is now a perfectly empty custom.ini file. No issues with respawning, etc. Link to comment
Shadriss Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I did that but now the only thing in the groups is Default.Updating the Masterlist will repopulate the group lists as well. Once you have that redownloaded (do this either by attempting a sort or using the option at the top of the screen in LOOT), you can redo the group list to match the new setup. Link to comment
Memoso Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 i just finished the new update... anyone have an idea why my game ctd while finishing on loading. i can play save and everything but when i load its ctd at the end of the loading! :( oh men thats bad Link to comment
evertiro Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 So after not following instructions on my first attempt (I'm a dev, I should know better), I finally got around to starting from scratch last week. This time, it went perfectly. Straightforward, not a single hiccup, and worked like a charm. Digging into the included mods, I found a few nifty ones I'd never seen before and a few good alternatives to ones I've used in the past. My one and only complaint about this guide? I want more! I've already tweaked it a bit for my setup (with all of the recommended mods and settings, I'm not even scratching the surface of what my computer can handle), but I think I can improve it further with a little work... Maybe even fork the guide and create an LOTD+ version for people with high-end computers who can handle it? (Absolutely stellar work to Lexy and crew though, this is by far the most well written, bug-free guide I've ever seen) Link to comment
Matthewgryan Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Hey, could anyone provide the final plugin list? I would like to compare against what I have and make sure I have unchecked any wrong ones? Link to comment
Kelmych Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 One of the instructions on the Merge page, step 8 of the "Create Merge", seems to either apply to a different version of zMerge or else I am doing something wrong. Step 8 says "Click the data tab make sure Copy General Assets is Unchecked (anything else can remain Checked) then hit OK. When I ran zEdit 0.6.4 Portable to create the Weather Systems Merged then on the Data tab I got 4 sets of information: Plugin Data Folders, Bethesda Archives, MCM Translations, and INI Files. I don't get a "General Assets" area or the associated checkbox at all like the one shown in your screenshots. There is a checkbox in Bethesda Archives which says "Build Merged Archive" with a further choice of Extract, Copy or Ignore. If I am seeing the correct menu on the Data tab what should be checked or chosen? I have always found your guide very helpful and even periodically wonder how you ever have the time to maintain it.

As to why General Assets are not showing for you my guess is you didn't extract the BSA when you installed. Link to comment

Matthewgryan Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I have a few plugins in my list unchecked, for example Don't be a milk drinker, and I am not sure if it because I made a mistake or it does it automatically.Also better dynamic ash, lethal traps and your own thoughts merged.. Thanks :) Link to comment

Memoso Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Hi, Does everyone have an idea why i ctd while loading... and exactly at the end where Loading is finished... since the new update.. could it be an reshade ini file??? I cant imagine more because nothing Else changed Link to comment
BMaytrix Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Hi Lexy, Wanted to let you know of an odd issue during the finishing line. (I've completed the guide several times, and just finished going back through it since the last update.) After completing Bashed Patch, I went to do the Smash. However, Lexy's LOTD Consistency Patches Merged.esp, Lexy's LoTD SE OMEGA - Conflict Resolution.esp, & LOTD Patches Merged.esp were not showing up within smash - so I couldn't do the "force all". It turns out, they were being deactivated by WryeBash - but were not part of the merge. They all had dependencies on Better Skill and Quest Books Names and WryeBash was merging that - which I guess made WryeBash disable those three mods.I've never seen that happen during my previous runs through the finishing line.The way I fixed it - marked Better Skill and Quest Books as "no merge" and deselected during the Bash Patch. No more issues. Don't know if anyone else has this problem, but I sure did.Thanks again! Link to comment
