Nice 1 mate will check that link out!

And thanks - these were great mods and really added immersion. I was using an ENB or FXAA Injector in those shots but forgot which one!

You got a nice rig so i bet you was using something like Superb ENB-RL or Sharpshooters Extreme Graphics ENB

Ahh thanks just added those to the shortlist to download! Im in the minority on this forum I think because I dont have an overclocked system. I wish I had got an OC'd i7. Many have told me I can do it myself and they are right but Im too chicken...Im more than capable of frying something

Ah the joys of modding Skyrim. Pretty sure I've messed something up by installing and badly uninstalling too many follower mods.

. Janessa won't follow/leave me anymore and her inventory is messed up too. Shame as she's probably my favourite companion so far.

This might be the time to reinstall and start again. This time only installing the mods I currently use.

Just uninstalled all my mods as i havent played for ages and stuff was getting weird

I verified steam files etc so now ready to go

With textures, the front page here says to install the offical hd texture packfirst before 2k texture mod

Is this correct? If so ill install the official hd optimised set first

Thanks

*also am i right in thinking deadly dragons requires the dlc to work?

Do you mean load order?

The official textures come as part of the steam download. Surely they will install first by default?

There are other mods that clash with files in the HD texture pack. I can think of one off the top of my head straight away - static mesh improvement.

I mean install, im not sure its just under textures on the first page it makes out like i need to install the linked official hd pack before any of the other texture things? Just confused is all so maybe i can just install 2k and assume it wont matter if the ifficial stuff is installed or not

Thanks

*also how would i find out if steam already came with these hd textures? As stands i have nothing in my load order etc

Dude....

Just untick the officials in the load order and then install the 2k. Do it from a fresh game though.

Ok was all i was after ..

Not got any in my load order as above, so i just skipped officials and used 2k alone

Does anyone know of any proper, proper rain mods? The kind of rain you can summon with a shout where you can barely see anything, is there a way to get that kinda rain into the normal weather cycle and more rain in general?

Michaeljcox24 · 14 Apr 2013 at 21:35

Search rain in the nexus. Top mod works well i use it myself

kinger8938 · 14 Apr 2013 at 22:25

Lol another issue im having, when using the warzones mod (i think its related to this one, only noticed the issue during big fights) animals seem to fly up in the sky then back down again and mammoths seem to glitch about aswell

Hard to explain

*edit

Just found this in the faq so will try!

WARZONES MAKES ANIMALS DANCE, JIGGLE and FALL FROM THE SKY! WHAT TO DO?

From SOLENTIS, comes the solution to CAP YOUR FRAMERATE if you experience this oddity.

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/34

With those settings:

[config]
RenderAheadLimit=2
FPSlimit=60

In the alternative, you can disable the particular WARZONE within which it happens. Typically it's been REDORAN PLAINS, so:
1 - Enter console (~)
2 - Type "set wzonesselectRedoran to 0" (no quotes) and hit ENTER

Supreme storms and real rain.

We need to have a spartacus mod

kinger8938 · 15 Apr 2013 at 09:17

I need to choose a lighting/enb thing next i suppose! Confusing stuff!

Also does the deadly dragon mod require the dlc to use? Ta

Michaeljcox24 · 15 Apr 2013 at 13:24

Seasons of Skyrim is the winner ENB for me. Very low performance hit too.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Im using climates of tamriel as well so i wonder if these work well togeather?

In the comments on your suggested enb the make suggests to use project enb with climates of tamriel ill have a good look tnite!

Thanks for tip

Michaeljcox24 · 15 Apr 2013 at 15:38

Me personally, i dont think it works well with climates. Colours look washed out. Use wet and cold with a good rain mod.

Mockingbird · 15 Apr 2013 at 16:00

Climates of Tamriel have their own ENB.

I've not tried it, but go to nexus and it's listed in the 'files' tab under the CoT main mod entry.

I broke my Skyrim

Dunno what I did!

Re-installing now, is the STEP guide still the best/easiest way to get it pretty again?
