F - Mods that replace existing models or textures[edit | edit source]

Modified Mod Notes[edit | edit source]

July 8th - July 9th[edit | edit source]
July 10th[edit | edit source]
July 11th[edit | edit source]
July 12th[edit | edit source]
July 16th[edit | edit source]
  • The Skyrim Distance Overhaul
    • Updated with new recommendations, added detailed information about Morthal Swamp options and added instructions for installing the patch via MO. (7/16)
August 9th[edit | edit source]
August 15th[edit | edit source]
August 19th[edit | edit source]
August 31st[edit | edit source]
Sept 16th[edit | edit source]
  • Dual Sheath Redux
    • Updated installation instructions for v1.7 release.
    • It is no longer necessary to add the -NOBOSS argument. Please remember to run FNIS after updating.
Oct 16th[edit | edit source]
Nov 23rd[edit | edit source]
  • ENBoost
    • Updated instructions to delete iPresentInterval from Skyrim.ini and SkyrimPrefs.ini. It should remain set to its default, iPresentInterval=1.
      • Previously, STEP erroneously recommended to set iPresentInterval=0 in SkyrimPrefs.ini.
    • Updated instructions to set [MEMORY] parameters manually. Using AutodetectVideoMemorySize=true is unreliable for some users which causes more problems than ENBoost solves. Setting these parameters manually is the only solution.
Dec 4th[edit | edit source]
  • ENBoost
    • Updated instructions to ADD iPresentInterval=1 toSkyrim.ini under [Display] section and DELETE that line from SkyrimPrefs.ini.
Dec 11th[edit | edit source]
Dec 14th[edit | edit source]
  • Updated Dawnguard, Hearthfire, & Dragonborn notes to reflect updated TESEdit cleaning instructions with regard to official content (Update.esm and the DLC plugins). The instructions assumed that MO manages these 'mods', but new version of MO does not manage them, so they never get saved to MO:Overwrite. Instead, they overwrite the vanilla versions, as is the default behavior when TESEdit is launched outside of MO.
Jan 18th[edit | edit source]
Jan 22nd[edit | edit source]
  • Updated AMD driver Settings section of the guide to point to the AMD CCC Guide itself to reduce redundancy, since that guide is already very compact.
Jan 24th[edit | edit source]
  • Converted INI Tweaks chapters to transclude relevant entries within Skyrim INIs Guide.
Feb 14th[edit | edit source]
Mar 18th[edit | edit source]
Mar 20th[edit | edit source]
  • Skyrim Performance Monitor
    • Updated instructions as they indicated erroneously to launch SPM through MO, when it is actually SPM that should launch MO.
May 19th[edit | edit source]
  • SkyUI
    • Removed detailed instructions, since updates to Mod Organizer's external fomod installer have rendered them obsolete.
June 17th[edit | edit source]
  • LOOT
    • Updated with the fact that LOOT is auto-detected by Mod Organizer
    • Moved info about using LOOT with multiple games into the proper format.
    • Added link to the LOOT Meta Rule Instructions
    • Added notice about --single-process argument fix for users who may experience a blank window at startup.
June 19th[edit | edit source]
  • TES5Edit
    • Changed download link to Github location for the latest release.
    • Moved links to the manuals and instructions to the Links.
    • Added instruction to extract the archive to desired location.
  • ENBoost
    • Fixed download link.
    • Added notice on how to find Total Available Graphics Memory.
June 20th[edit | edit source]

Standardized Mod Note Style[edit | edit source]

Other Changes[edit | edit source]

2014[edit | edit source]
  • (8/21) Updated the TES5Edit Cleaning Instructions to be relevant to all games.
  • (11/23) Updated both INI Tweaks to remove iPresentInterval from both INIs.
  • (11/23) Updated AMD and Nvidia driver settings to reflect proper vsync settings.
  • (12/14) Updated TESEdit cleaning instructions with regard to official content (Update.esm and the DLC plugins). The instructions assumed that MO manages these 'mods', but new version of MO does not manage them, so they never get saved to MO:Overwrite. Instead, they overwrite the vanilla versions, as is the default behavior when TESEdit is launched outside of MO.
2015[edit | edit source]
  • (2/15) Removed INI tweak for [Actor] section that is now packaged with USKP.
  • (5/27) Removed and/or fixed invalid and non-working INI tweaks.
  • (6/17) Updated LOOT Meta Rule Instructions to reflect changes in version 0.7.
