If you're new to Skyrim, or just having problems, and not sure where to begin ... Just ask. All are welcome, If you can grow pubic hair you're already an old fart to someone.

This is just a place to hang, chat, ask questions, and get abused by forum regulars. Feel free to drop by ... We might not have all the answers, but we probably already know the people that do, and we will be happy to help.

Bashing, spamming, self promoting, advertising, and trolling will simply provide us with target practice and make you look really lame. Please leave politics and religion at the door as well.

Personal attacks against forum guests based on country, race, ethnicity, and lifestyle preferences will not be tollerated in any way ... Period, and we will be enforcing the moderators rules around here ... Period

Keep it clean (mostly) While the game is listed as mature, a lot of the people aren't
Keep it civil (always) arguing a little is fine, just keep it friendly

Move over young ones ... Gramps moved back in.

Actually I don't remember when I last had Coffee.... or Tea... I know I last had a Hot Chocolate a couple of months back though...

Maybe Coffee is a state of mind

What is the current consensus on ENB and weather mods?

I installed ELFX for interiors, because I can not imagine playing without ELFX Shadows. Otherwise options are still open.

I have completely fallen off this scene, so recommendations are welcome.

Jack is probably more up to date on that than most - he's often posted about the mods he uses for weather, I just can't recall them offhand (they do say the mind is one of the first things to go - LOL!)

(Or was it the mimes are the first thing to go? Well something went, that's for sure.)

Choose some mods at random ... then bung them in ... any order will do ...
And then you're ready to play ...

I've mostly converted over to Community Shaders, works with whatever weather mod (I don't really have a favourite at the moment) and has lots of modularity.

I am staring at it, but have absolutely no idea how it is supposed to work. I guess I need some preset?

Yes - there are presets listed under the Requirements that Community Shaders is required for.

Or just enter Community shaders preset in the search box.

Gnewna, without a doubt, knows far more about the topic than I do!

[gnewna]

It doesn't really require presets in the same way ENB does, you can just install all the Community Shaders components you want and it'll look good. But there's a few Reshade presets that work with it if you want to change the colour palette and such.

For my Enderal installation I was trying this out https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/99450 (Amethyst Reshade/Kreate Preset) and it was pretty nice.

I'll stick with Summer Skyrim for now until I get my new rig. Probably ordering it very soon, maybe somewhere this month, or at the end of this month. Hopefully prices have gone down (a lot). Not that I can't afford it, but my house also needs some attention!

Poking my head back in between jobs. The biggest take away is choose your weather mod first. A lot of the newest ENBs have multiple versions specifically tweaked for specific weather mods, and there are also very simple edits to the ENBSeries.ini to add weather awareness to older ENBs

The caveat as always is every weather mod is different, so there's no one blanket 'switch' to turn on everything for every weather. For the most part it comes down to un-checking the "ignore weather" box in each relevant section.

The good new is the new weather specific presets have done the leg work for you. The downsides is how many bloody versions of each preset you have to look through.

I'm currently using Kyn'es weather (Which is based on Obsidian, but with new weathers merged into it from Wander and a few other sources. Any ENB with a version for Obsidian will work out of the box, but a couple of the new weathers might need to be tweaked.

My last build was using Pi-Cho ENB for Obsidian. I really didn't have to make any changes to the weather settings, but there are a couple of recommended Skyrimprefs.ini settings they recommend you tweak which do make a difference. I've been very happy with the choice.

I just copy and paste the DLL drivers. Cause 3D, parallax and all that stuff. Messes everything up. So wait until your entire mod lists is finished. ENB, ELFX all mods casting shadows could mess up your 3D and parallax settings. Then copy and paste the EFFECTS part of the enbseries.ini file. And paste over the EFFECTS part the preset you picked. Or your 3D and parallax settings could revert.

To be honest, some make great ENB's and shaders and presets.
But by now, sorry to say. Rudy is running everything on a potato rig, compared to what i have.

[Ilja]

I am sort of committed to Shaders now, but damn, there are a lot of obsolete support files around. I feel like ENB would have been safer choice.

I might get back to ENB. At least I know how to handle them and their conflicts.

Ok, in Beyond Skyrim Bruma, there is a quest named "ugly love"...I almost completed it, but this Orc Dumbag can not recognize his wife in breton house basement, where she was imprisoned.

Nothing is happened, quest is bugged....

How to resolve this issue ?

I take it you've tried the usual advice of 'reload an earlier save and play back to that point and hope it works this time'?

Tried this several times. even started quest from beggining...I even installed some fixes for Bruma mod, nothing happens. Buggy quest stayed. I gave up.


One question, mod seems to be unfinished, west and south from Underpall Cave there is only forest and occasionally bandits...and tottaly on west appear to be one big city, but when I approach it, I sunk down, like there are no textures at all.


Anybody have idea ?
