TaxTalis Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Congratulations on the release of 2.0.0! I love what the beta guide already did to my game, will at some point try to lift my beta adaptation to this one and will definitively use it for my second playthrough. A question regarding the included grass cache in the STEP CR 2.0.0 patch and the Grass Cache Fixes: On the nexus page of the Grass Cache Fixes it is stated "Step 4: Ensure that you have a gid file and a cgid file for everything.", but the CR patch only includes cgid files, is this intentional?

Ignore the steps in that description as we have done it for you. The gid files have been placed inside a BSA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decopauge123 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) Thank you for all the blood, sweat, and tears that went into releasing this Guide. I had been following it in it's unreleased state and will now go through what I have installed to update it. I have a suggestion regarding the current System Requirements table: links to the PassMark Software CPU , Hard Drive, Ram and System Benchmark s would (I think) help impress upon people the importance of ensuring that their system is capable of effectively supporting a STEP2 build. If you agree, I am volunteering to undertake the change. A second suggestion is that you consider adding Sync Plugins with Mod Order - Mod Organizer 2 Plugin to the MO2 configuration/setup instructions for the Guide. I've been using this for a while and it done an excellent job of putting the plugins in mod list order. Sometimes LOOT will make changes to it's handiwork; sometimes it doesn't. Loot and this mod make it easy to have plugins in the required order. Edited March 14, 2022 by Decopauge123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loot and this mod make it easy to have plugins in the required order. There are links to the mentioned benchmarks already. They are in blue. Sorting via that plugin would break our guide, because our conflict resolution requires the mod order be how it is placed in the guides. That plugin would only be useful as a general guide on mod placement. 2 hours ago, ButchDiavolo said: Well, I finally got around to installing the Conflict Resolution Patch, but it is giving me Missing Master errors on the creations that I don't have installed. Is there an easy way to fix this or should I just go without the resolution patch and make a Bashed patch? The guide is for Skyrim Anniversary Edition, which requires you to have all the creation content and latest patch for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pug Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Great work! Thank you so much. But I'm stuck in section 8 with simple children. You advise to open FacegenForKids.esp with xedit because of on old reference which should be cleaned. But xedit does not allow to open the esp because of this. The esp is crossed out. What do I miss? How can I open the esp for cleaning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spigotron Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 In the instructions regarding the installation of DynDOLOD, I'm instructed to navigate to C:/Modding/Tools/DynDOLOD/Edit Scripts/DynDOLOD and edit the TexGen.ini file there. That INI file doesn't exist. Has anyone else had this issue? Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogom Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 On 3/15/2022 at 12:38 PM, TechAngel85 said: If you know what you're doing, not too hard. Install the SE versions of mods rather than AE versions. Then remove or change the masters in the Patches. We're not supporting that though. We understand a lot of users have not purchased AE yet. We're also aware that the only difference between SE and AE is the Creation Club content. All users received the update to Special Edition (currently v1.6.353, I think) so that shouldn't be a barrier to anyone except to those who are artificially preventing their games from updating. Since Bethesda has labeled Anniversary Edition an official DLC and Step stopped supported piecemeal DLCs many years ago, we decided to change gears after AE's announcement to support it for v2 of the Guide. I'm a bit confused, can you clarify please? The 2.0 of current Skyrim:SE(AE/1.6+) guide based around assumption that "all DLCs are obtained" which means "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition" DLC bought and installed and all of the Creation Club mods which come with it are obtained via download in-game? Or is it still possible to mod the game with this guide without Anniversary Edition DLC? And if so is it just the matter of creating dummy ESPs in Wyre Bash after installing of Conflict Resolution patch or it's much bigger problem and most of the mods in the guide assume Anniversary Edition is bought and installed? Because I'm currently have a Skyrim SE 1.6.353 game version from steam installed but not the DLC. Do I need to buy "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition" to use this guide or can I still make it work without it? Is it still possible to use 1.0 guide for Skyrim SE 1.5.x or most of the mods listed there is updated to the current version of the Skyrim + AE DLC including CR patch? Sorry if it was explained before here, at guide page or CR nexus page. Just trying to understand the new guide and what can I do in my situation.

We don't support anything but what it says; although, it's certainly possible to run with 1.6.xxx. We just don't offer guidance on that. The CC DLC costs $20 I think.
