That photo block in the middle, up there with the type in the center that says,"Close Suspicious Cabinet" looks like a sceene from a survival horror game. I'm tempted to get this mod, but my old I3 might have an electric aneurism.

Mine seem to be floating in the sea with no way to get to it is it just me with this problem?

Glad you got it sorted. I hope you enjoy the mod :)

I figured it out.

As I recall, In Oblivion, whether changing the resolution or enabling / disabling borders. It was all in the same file / location. In Skyrim it's a separate file in which "bBorderRegionsEnabled=0" has to be inserted. This wasn't necessary in Oblivion.

Hi, onetimes. I'm sorry that you're having so many problems. The issue is that you are trying to modify Skyrim_default and that is the wrong file!

What is unique about your install is the location of the folder where your Skyrim game files are stored - and I DON'T mean the place where your .esp files are, in the Steam folders.

This will be somewhere else on your computer - My Documents or Documents or Games or My Games or something like that. If you are looking at a folder and it has all your savegames for Skyrim, you're looking in the right place, and there will be a text file (filetype: "configuration settings") in there called Skyrim. It is ONLY called Skyrim - not Skyrim_default or SkyrimPrefs or anything else.

You're right that you have to add the bBorderRegionsEnabled bit - just in the General section at the top, so it sounds like you know what you're doing, you just need to find the right file!

If you're looking at a file called Skyrim_Default, you cannot be in the right place, because that document is not in that folder. The file you are looking for is Skyrim.ini

I think the person at Bethesda Support was confused. I wouldn't be able to play it if it didn't work!

Here are the steps you need to follow:

1. Find your Skyrim.ini file. Its location will depend on your individual computer - in mine, it's at Vista\Documents\My Games\Skyrim
(there's a subfolder in there called 'saves', which stores all your savegames. Other items in the 'Skyrim' folder are BashSettings.dat, BashSettings.dat.bak, RendererInfo.txt and SkyrimPrefs.ini - so if you see those, you're looking in the right place.

2. Insert the line about disabling the borders. My .ini file looks like this:

[General]
sLanguage=ENGLISH
bBorderRegionsEnabled=0

uExterior Cell Buffer=36

[Display]
fShadowLODMaxStartFade=1000.0
fSpecularLODMaxStartFade=2000.0
fLightLODMaxStartFade=3500.0
iShadowMapResolutionPrimary=2048
bAllowScreenshot=1

(etc)

Thanks, Galatine. Pleased to see such a long list! I'm going to level with you (if you'll pardon the pun) - I work full time, I have a toddler, and I'm studying on the side. I don't really have time to mod any more, or at least only for a couple of hours every few months. If someone wants to modify this and make it compatible with that mod, I would be DELIGHTED, but I'm just not going to have the time to do it myself.

thanks and there are 2 mods for kids custom family home, and multiple hearthfire adoptions which only work with certain house mods which are listed on the nexus page

@ Galatine - there's a mod by Emma, I think it's called Spouses Can Live Anywhere, that allows your spouse to ... um ... live anywhere. I'm not sure if there's a similar mod for kids but I expect there is.

is it possible to move your spouse and kids in the castle?

See, I wasnt sure about where it was I thought it was on there not that you had to add it :P

Oh ok ill look for it again.

You should have a folder called My Games or just Games in your My Documents folder. You'll have folders for all your games in there - including Skyrim. Within that folder, you'll find stuff like savegame information, and one of the files will be a text file of 'configuration settings' that is called Skyrim.ini - that is the file you want. It's a bunch of text instructions:

[General]
sLanguage=ENGLISH

uExterior Cell Buffer=36

add this line so it looks like

[General]
sLanguage=ENGLISH
bBorderRegionsEnabled=0

uExterior Cell Buffer=36

Then save and exit, and you're done.

i cant get it to work either.... at least solsteim finally got some cool stuff

I cant find the bBorders thing in my skyrim files.... to bad this mod looked so cool

Coffins.Cewl

@joburton Did you disable your borders?
@tx12001 Lovely!

oh trust me my game has plenty of memory thi is shadow of morrowind http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/35789/

how do i get the key to that place that leads me to the castle and when i just go to the castle its not there cause i cant move very far

I have no idea about the purple dishes. I didn't add any dishes (as objects) to the game, so I think that's a bug in your game (overused memory?) - try reloading? I find that fixes weird purple stuff.

Because the coffins aren't "owned", then anyone can sleep in them. Again, it's a game thing. Maybe they're goths?

I don't know anything about Shadow of Morrowind, sorry.

I have a few bugs to report and some things that are just wierd

Purple dishes...Purple dishes everywhere

The Hidden room with the Coffins, I went to sleep in 1 of the coffins and then as I was walking out of the room a "Mortal" comes in then walks up to it and goes to sleep in the coffin i also noticed at this time that the coffin on the ground was occupied by yet another "mortal"

is this compatible with shadow of morrowind? a large mod that adds the velothi mountains and vvardenfell to the soltheim worldpsace

Yes, please follow the instructions on disabling the borders:

Add bBorderRegionsEnabled=0 in the [General] section in Skyrim.ini

e.g. go to

vista\documents\my games\skyrim\skyrim.ini

and where you have

[General]
sLanguage=ENGLISH

uExterior Cell Buffer=36

add this line so it looks like

[General]
sLanguage=ENGLISH
bBorderRegionsEnabled=0

uExterior Cell Buffer=36

I have problems to find the main entrance to the castle. The only way, I detected was through the kitchen. Being inside the castle next problem is to leave it again. All doors to the outside are blocked.Only the way back through the kitchen is possible.
Do you have a proposal for solution?

Sorry about the delay in taking down the festive decorations. I was getting 'steam error 10' whenever I tried!

alright thank you for the help, and for makeing this for us.

On my computer, I have a folder called

Documents\my games\skyrim

and in it there is a text file called 'Skyrim' that is of the type 'Configuration Settings'. This is the .ini file.

The first few lines of that document look like this

[General]
sLanguage=ENGLISH
bBorderRegionsEnabled=0

uExterior Cell Buffer=36

[Display]
fShadowLODMaxStartFade=1000.0
fSpecularLODMaxStartFade=2000.0
fLightLODMaxStartFade=3500.0
iShadowMapResolutionPrimary=2048
bAllowScreenshot=1



If you don't have the 'bBorderRegionsEnabled=0', just type it in, save and close. It won't break anything, I promise!

i cant find anything that has to do with Border Regions or ini ,

i would like to try out this mod but the Add bBorderRegionsEnabled=0 in the [General] section in Skyrim.ini ? sorry i cant find this, some help maybe

Looks amazing.

np

@ itzkakashi Thank you so much!

Best castle..........EVER!!!!
