pack VEGA Core: Vanilla Enhanced Gameplay Alternative (by Nearox)

Yeah, it's called Perkus Maximus.

 

Disclaimer: T3ndo's MS Paint art on that page might be too awesome for the untrained eye.

[Defaulteduser]

Yeah, called PerMa. Go to the SkyRe nexus page, the sticky at the top has a link to his Facebook page that he's using to talk about it!

 

I'm waffling a bit on it, from what I'm reading it seems to be needlessly complicated. I think a lot of people don't realize that if you make something simple and elegant, it will be a lot more fun than something hugely complicated.

New iteration of SkyRe?

I spy with my little eye, 2 people who got ninja'd.

[Defaulteduser]

You're too fast with the clicks!

[phazer11]

No, no you're Internetz simply don't haz the powaz. He posted 30 minutes before you mate lol. At any rate I was looking at this pack and REGS but I'll probably hold off for a bit to decide which overhaul.

[Defaulteduser]

I'm in Canada. Common knowledge we have beavers relaying the information to us, so it takes longer to respond!

[Ganda]

Besides the new T3ndo's stuff, any good perk overhauls? That work with all the jazz from STEP, SR:LE and krypto's stuff :p

[Defaulteduser]

I'm contemplating doing a play through with empowered magic, ACE combat and stealth skills rebalanced. I believe that will conflict less with SR:LE , etc. and will do the job quite well!

 

Will likely throw in Duel and some enemy AI overhauls (along with HLE, RotE, etc.)

[Defaulteduser]

Oh, and also forgotten magic redone. I haven't played with that one yet (and have played with the others) , but it looks to have some really cool magic elements to it, and I find many of the spell additions in mods to kind of destroy the game after a short period of time by making things just a little too powerful.

[Ganda]

Oh boy, that is going to be a nightmare to do conflict resolution on... why do you show me more mods?! :'c

[Defaulteduser]

It's not nearly as bad as SkyRe, I swear! Because SkyRe changed the stats on all armour and weapons, along with lots of other things, it ended up needing to be patched. 

To be THAT guy, I might suggest using smithing perk overhaul instead of the ACE smithing perk tree (I'm not as much a fan of it!)

ACE is very modular, so while it's technically an overhaul you don't need to install all aspects(and I wouldn't). the others just affect Perks , so shouldn't conflict with too much

[Ganda]

Yh, I was about to ask krypto about that, thanks for the info :p What would you not install? (I've seen that there is a lot of built-in compatibility between these mods and they're still being supported so that's all good :p Only thing so far is there is no support for Lore Weapons Expansion in ACE <.>

 

We're doing your job for you Nearox! Unf

[Defaulteduser]

Hmmm....I don't play with that (just immersive weapons and immersive armour), so I didn't know about that incompatibility.

I'd actually swap ACE before the others, but I haven't found a combat perk overhaul that I'd be ok with. Most Combat overhauls fix Light and Heavy armour (making like harder to maximize than heavy), and fix the combat perks so they're more effective. If there's another that does those two things, I'd sign up for it!

[Ganda]

Immersive Weapons? O.o

 

But is there something deeply wrong with ACE? Just read through it and didn't find much to complain about :p
