Will somone post their Skyrimprefs.ini with Ultra settings enabled

[Thick8]

I couldn't find a a fix for the missing book text so I deleted all of my local conent through Steam and for good measure deleted the Skyrim folder. Then I unziped a save I made of the Skyrim folder without the mods installed. I can read the books again, Yea! Unfortunately Steam doesn't see my Skyrim installation so it wants to re-install Skyrim when I run the launcher. I have no desire to do that. So If someone can do the "spoiler" thing with everything maxed out so I can copy and paste it that would be great.

Thanks.

John

 

BTW. Does this mean that Steam won't be updating ( read, possiblly breaking) my Skyrim anymore?

If what the highlighted text says is true then the same effect will be gained by removing the content and allowing Steam to 'verify the local content'. This will have the added bonus of keeping a working Steam installation, thus avoiding the issues you now see with tools not seeing your now broken Skyrim install.

 

You want to maintain a clean "vanilla" Skyrim install and allow MO to manage all your mods, thus avoiding all the issues of having to re-install Skyrim when problems happen.

[Thick8]

Does that re-download the 6+ Gigs of Skyrim or does it just verify that I own it?

[GrantSP]

If any of the files are different, or missing, then those files are re-acquired. However as you have moved your current install you may face issues with Steam. You mentioned your tools aren't working because the registry setting is broken, you should revert to the previous setup and remove only files that don't belong and let Steam 'fix' any broken files.

6Gb+ is a lot I know, I used to be on a very restrictive internet service and it was a big issue for me. The flipside though is having a broken game will be an even bigger hardship I feel.

 

Anytime you try and move stuff that is managed by online software checks, such as Steam, it will think that you are either pirating it or trying to circumvent some protection of the files. End result is a broken game, but for good reasons.

[Thick8]

I think my issue was when I did a Ccleaner run to make sure I didn't have any lingering settings that might have been messing up my install. I did move my Steam folder to my root directory but did game cache verify afterwards. I'm well into my STEP process (again #5) right now. But if I re-download Skyrim all I have to do is Tes5Edit the 4 files again, right?

[GrantSP]

If Steam, and all your tools, see Skyrim installed correctly yes, all you have to do is clean them again.

[Thick8]

Thank You.

And Thank You to you also Guard.

[Thick8]

It was a 5 minute download. It started at 11Gb but only verified the existing files. I then had it chek the game cache. That was another 768kb. Cleaned them and I'm off and running again.

Thanks again for your help.
