Current Bugs (Post 1.43B update)
I dont know about the rest of you but personally I have been having alot of problems since this last update... So, here be the place to talk abou them! Please do not be rude or blame the developer for any issues, he has made an amazing mod for an amazing game and bugs are part of the operation. Im posting this just to give us a nice place to communicate with the Dev :) Here are the bugs I have had so far....
- I cannot access the vault room through any means, the game simply crashes. This has also happened when transporting between the forge and stables, and I cannot tell why. Though I do note it seems to give me a different loading screen when it crashes from the normal teleport load.
- The auto loot is no longer working for the forge, mainly the anvil and the sharpening wheel. It just doesnt seem to loot into my inventory anymore (although I would like to thank the Dev for making the auto look occur on use, thats very nice)
- When manually pulling materiels from bins the cursor seems to move slowly, as if sensitivity gets toned down significantly. (obviously minor but...)
- The enchanting station keeps taking all my rings/amulets/necklaces everytime I use it, regardless of enchantment or not. It particularly likes gold objects.
- The manniquins on the Armory upper floor are often suspended in the air by a large distance
- The creatures in the Lair often get loose (dragons and such in particular)
- Finally, Using the Hall of Ascention has left me with weird things displayed on my screen. Yellow and white markings that appear in first person but not third. I did spam out about a hundred atherieal shards the last time I visisted but Im not sure if thats the cause or not.

Thank you so much for this mod! Its absolutely my favorite Ive ever subscribed to and I spend a ton of time in it. Hopefully this descussion will help you :) Somehow

After putting gold in the pit, I can no longer access the vault.
--

Had to turn off Auto-loot because it just kept depriving me of my materials when I needed them
--Put an orb next to each station instead. Give the option of "retrieve" and "store" and away you go.

Auto Loot doesn't recognize when my rings are enchanted and stores them in unenchanted rings anyway.
--bonus points for accommodating Left hand rings.

Potions (made without mods) get neither sorted, stored, nor withdrawn from the menus; nor do any items from any mods seem to work either. I have a feeling this is because the sort function operates on a name.
--Sort function by properties
--bonus points for sorting by multiple properties so my fine clothes don't end up in the armory

Some mounts don't function as mounts, mostly the spiders
-- bonus points for adding in the "Sjel Blad Piggyback" mount, I want to ride on someone's shoulders around skyrim

Trapper doesn't come back with anything.
--pretty sure it's because she's trying to put stuff in the same crate as the hunter

Trebon is standing too far back and I can't talk to her
- why is that area invisiwalled off anyway?

The secret tunnel doesn't work
--There is no secret tunnel, I hold this to be a bug.
NEVER MIND I HAVE FOUND THE SECRET ROOM. Still needs a key though


There is no way to get to the (functional Catapults) on the roof of the stables unless you have athletics training.
--I really want to be able to use those.

Merchants can buy some things but can't seem to buy all the higher level items
-- maybe an option with the stewart to invest more in each one?

Smelter doesn't accomodate for mod items
-- I realize that's a problem but maybe if there was a script to read what materials were required to make it, you'd get back anything with the name "ingot"

Almost impossible to make followers go back to the castle, they just keep following
--happens with and without AFT, although I wouldn't mind a compatibility patch

Requests

--Secret tunnel

--Autoloot option for trophaeum when you select what creature to display. I hate tracking all over the castle to find what I need.

--Bard Selection

--The SOUL BLADE for which the castle is named, preferably somewhere fancy and dangerous.

--option to turn the waterfalls in the living quarters off or replace them with lava. ♥♥♥♥'s getting damp.

--Teleport to throne

-I'm almost unable to put gold in the treasure pit in the Vault (Clicking "deposit/withrdaw" simply closes the options menu and nothing else) except my most recent attempt. It opened up the inventory of the treasure pile, THEN the options menu. After placing my gold in, I am (like the commenter above me) unable to return to the Vault.

-One of the Companions cannot be asked to follow (Mordric Arc Palentium the Warrior)
-(REQUEST) Add the option to marry the companions

-Lighting issues in the Barracks (Certain effects (a bluish white area light) are only on when you're close enough, you can see them disappear as you walk away)

Otherwise, I love the mod! Fantastic attention to detail!

So, let me put it this way: I bought Skyrim on PC specifically because I saw a review for this mod, and couldn't (obviously) get it for PS3. So I like it. I knew I would like it before I installed it.

Not surprisingly for a mod of this magnitude, though, there are a couple of issues

-First, the vault freeze-up issue is a big problem. Maybe my computer's just wimpy, but I can't get back in there to save my life, and all my gold, and every rare item is in there. Maybe put a "turn off dynamic vault" pillar in the Customization room? That's probably the problem. Before my game got too laggy, I noticed that a ton of items were just sort of falling out of the air over the treasure pit, which I'm sure is causing an insane amount of lag.
-Second, the bookshelves, while they LOOK really awesome, frankly don't work for crap. Books fly all over the place, and tend to get stuck inside each other. Repeat, the aesthetics are incredible, but they're functionally deficient.
-Finally: Just a little thing, but when I go to click on one of the (very innovative) custom loot boxes (like, cheese storage, or whatever), it tends to suck me back into the menu after I initially store all my items. So, I'll do the storage thing, then try to exit, then it sucks me back to the menu, I have to hit cancel, and then it still opens the browse window.

-Also (and this is just a suggestion): Damn, that's a lot of mannequins. It's a daunting task to organize all those. You should have some of the plaques/mannequins pre-designated for various unique sets, and have them sort there via the Void system.

I just dipped my toe into this mod tonight, and have plenty more exploring to do after work tomorrow. If I come up with more questions/issues/suggestions, etc, I'll pop back in.

when i go to the map and see sjel castle it says cleard and im also having problems with the dragon throne
All In, Fall In Sep 20, 2014 @ 8:29pm 
I filled up the vault pits with gold and then i couldn't enter because it got stuck on the loading screen. I even waited half and hour and it didn't load. Also people seem to dissapear randomly like the steward.

PLEASE HELP!
I can't load my spells list, it keeps freezing, and i have all dlcs and i have tried deleting and reinstalling this mod over and over and even deleted the saves with the mod and reinstalled it and it still freezes but when the mod is off it works but as soon as i turn it on the spell list freezes again, i have even turned off every mod but that one, the dlcs, and skyui and it still won't stop freezing my spells list.

Biggest bug I've encountered so far would have to be the Hall of Ascension. After gathering aetherial shards by means of the tropheaum, I go to the hall of ascension to "modify" the stats on my player. As soon as I do that, I'm pretty much locked in the castle, and can't leave. The game crashes every time I try to leave the castle. Also, some of the modifyers potentially make your character completely god-like, thus breaking the game and making it pretty much unfair. For example, I was able to completely eliminate the cooldown for all my shouts, I was also able to make my weapon attack speed INSANELY fast... these two examples, as well as others, pretty much break the game, and are probably the reason why the game crashed after leaving the castle. Good thing I made a fresh new save file before modifying my character. A warning to fellow players: Save before hall of ascension!! It's a great idea but it totally corrupted the save file I had made after modding my character and had to ultimately delete it. For now, I've completely skipped the Hall, and instead will just keep using the rest of the castle.

I have also encountered similar bugs to what others have mentioned. Auto-loot not working, rings/amulets getting put away into containers, mannequins floating away or in my case, looking like they're frozen during some kind of action, like walking or moving their arms. I've even seem them come to life and move around. (They stood still but keep looking at me as i moved around) I've also lost some items on the item plaques. They're still on display but I cannot take them down.

One more thing (sorry this is kinda long). I've found that recently, my void storage spell doesn't work. It creates the void storage wherever I want it, but I can't interact with it. I can only use the fixed void storage ports located around the castle. Great mod, overall, keep it up!

I have been unable to access the gold pit, and the game froze when I attempted to open the map function.

I've had only two major issues so far. The creatures in my Lair also liked to get loose, and more importantly, every time I leave the castle, my game crashes. Sometimes instantly, sometimes after a couple of minutes. Doesn't matter where I go or how I get there. Anyone having similar issues?

I visited the Halll of Ascension to spend some Aetherial shards, and now my game crashes to desktop every few minutes, and often hangs in the loading screen when fast traveling or moving from indoor to outdoor location, or vice versa. It's pretty much made the game unplayable.

How many shards did you use? I have personally not had a problem with the HoA, but some computers, I have heard, cannot handle the modification of base attributes/skills.

Did you happen to modify too much in the Hall of Ascension?

Some computers cannot handle all the extra treasure lying on the ground. In order to improve performance and prevent freezing loot all the awarded treasure.

Unfortunately, I have learned that not all computers can handle the changes allowed in the Hall of Ascension. It utimately depends on your computer's build and possibly other mods you have installed. I'll check on the other things you mentioned as well, thanks!
