: S4N stopped the zombie apocalypse and stopped in to apply some upgrades to how the wiki is handled so that it wouldn't be moving along at a turtle's pace anymore. We're still holding out on that elusive wiki software update he keeps mentioning. | |||

:Tech took over development of the mod Jaggarsfeld and recently pushed out a major update to the mod. It was very taxing work so he's taken a bit of a break to simply enjoy the game again. | |||

Right now the biggest news in the community is Skyrim Special Edition (SSE). If for some reason you've been living under a rock and haven't heard, Skyrim Special Edition is a remastered Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It will be released for the world in late October of this year. PC users will get it for free as long as they own either the Legendary Edition or have all the DLC. Many users skipped purchasing Hearthfire, but now is the time to get it so a free copy of Skyrim Special Edition can be claimed. This remastered version comes with a newer Creation Kit engine and 64-bit gameplay. The main remastering is being done to the visuals as users will have several new effects including better sun sets and sun rises, new snow and water shaders, screen-space reflections, volumetric god rays, and more. At this time, no one is sure of the scope of the changes, but what we do know is Bethesda has, at the very least, has filled the world with more foliage and clutter. This much can be seen in the teaser video. | Right now the biggest news in the community is Skyrim Special Edition (SSE).

The main holdup is development work on the back-end for the wiki. We're currently only set up to be able to host one guide and a ton of development went into doing so. With our free time limited, this development may take some time; longer than many of us wish. Once the development is complete, though, we'll hit the ground running and push out the first version of STEP:SSE. For those curious, wiki development has not yet started so if anyone has the skills and is very familiar with MediaWiki, please contact us! | The main holdup is development work on the back-end for the wiki.
