The Skyrim (Original DX9) Thread

[Guest]

Lots of fedex quests do not a deep game make.

They aren't fedex quests.

Bby pls if you want to start something here give it up, this isn't a place to be elitist about the game.

You're worse than Morrowind fappers

No one else going to post pics other than myself?  Reciprocate peoples!  (looks @coolkingler1 awaiting pics of their character)

No, but I can't take them, too much struggles with finding the actual pics in Steam.

 

Tried before but failed,

On the chance that you're being serious and not just copping out...printscreen (PrtScn) and find a bmp file in your skyrim folder.  Or right click on skyrim in steam if you're using steams overlay, in which case press F12 for screenshots.

 

Anyways, my characters got a new outfit and she's also stripped down her entourage (mid-evil spicegirls) and dressed them up to give foes a glimpse of Canaan before they realize they're on the wrong side of Cerberus' gate.

 

Be warned, mature content & honour system in place

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone care to take a guess at some of the mods in use, for fun?

I'd imagine that eats vram for lunch.

@Pohernori high rez environment textures, absolutely.  However, they're offering 1k 2k and 4k d/l files.  So I'm squarely in the 1k group, and I assume(after peeking up your kilt to see system specs in your profile) you'd be able to pull off the 2k pack with ease.

I'm tracking it for the time being, want to install it for a new character.

I used to love skyrim! Modding it..

But Mods can cause the game to crash?

 

Cause game was crashing like 5-10 minutes

i played it once at my friends , i shot a troll in the D***

Pretty sure that means you need more VRAM from your GPU. Was it crashing before you installed any mods? Also what's your GPU?

Mods dont cause the game to crash. Modders cause the game to crash. Either you had conflicts or your load order wasnt setup correctly.

load order is problem, but i don't know how to fix it..

I'd give 4k a try and see what's my performance  B)  hehehe

Using mod organizer would allow you to change load order with ease and identify conflicting mods

there's also an auto sort feature.

What mod program are you using?

The auto sort feature comes with a huge disclaimer "THIS ISNT VERY GOOD" for the 5 mins it takes to install LOOT its much better.

But still an easier solution for inexperienced modders

[MoonSpot]

@lovingGamer I use the Nexus mod manager and Loot.  Does the job rather well IMHO without needing to invest much time figuring out how to use them.

:EDIT May 20th 2015: I now use MO.  It is better.

 

@Pohernori if/when you do, please feel free to relay your impressions and experience with it at whichever resolution you end up trying

I've managed to find sometime to try out the 4k textures today

Ran a quick benchmark in my standard walk in the heavy rain from valtheim towers

 

2015-02-05 22:25:35 - TESV

Frames: 1888 - Time: 60000ms - Avg: 31.467 - Min: 25 - Max: 36

 

Playing at 1080p was quite playable, there were some stuttering occasionally.

Vram usage was hovering between 2.6GB to 2.9GB

 

Comparison of the textures I was using before vs Tamriel Reloaded HD

Tamriel Reloaded HD vs Tamriel Reloaded - Textures and Parallax

 

Tamriel Reloaded HD

 

Tamriel Reloaded HD & Parallax 

 

Tamriel Reloaded HD + Tamriel Reloaded HD & Parallax 

[MoonSpot]

@Pohernori Judging by the comparisons you've posted, thank you for them by the way quite awesome of you.  Parallax, being true to its definition, obviously has strikingly different rocks and tree bark and would seem to look better than 32cm's(mod author/creator of both) newer HD reloaded texture pack.  but I find myself torn between whether I prefer the tree foliage brightness/bloom of parallax or rocky waters found in HD reloaded.

I think'd prefer the mossy grass in HD reloaded more so than tall grasses of parallax, but that might be more of a landscaping preference than anything else.

 

After using both, what do you like more?
