Immersive Skyrim

Right, good, up to NMMing SkyUI now.

Other UI's next I guess, then on to main graphic mods.

Back to the Autosave question: is that part of another mod now? I don't see it anywhere unless it's part of the Dynamic Timescale mod you're testing, but you heavily recommended it in your opening list.


Heh, I saw part of your order as "Jolly Hooker". ;) BOSS will order those, right? Or I can tweak them from... would it be within BOSS, or NMM?

(Hopefully these questions will be useful to others following in your modsteps. :) )

lol, yea the Hooker is a inn  ;)

Yes, BOSS set this order for me, however you can reorder it manually if desired.


I am still using the AutoSave Manager http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/34842 as I have not had any problems with it..... I recommend it for now.

NMM says that the Quality World Map Installer has been added. "Installer"? Is that something I should be doing something about directly?

I do the manual download and then add the file (zip or rar) from download location.  Next just double click to install the mod.  Some mods have options when you double click on them from NMM and you can set what is installed from the mod.... for example some weapon mods have various textures you can install so the author gives you a menu that you can select from while installing it from the NMM.

I would hold off on Skyrim HD as it can tax your system and all the other mods look great and add a lot of flavor to Skyrim.

Okay, I installed the mod from NMM and picked the Hi-res map with main roads, no cloud clearing.

Then I discovered that all the mods have to be activated like that within NMM.

Then I discovered that some of them overwrite each other.

Which of course leads back to the question of which ones to install first.


As for Skyrim HD -- I have a Falcon MachV bought last Christmas. It's the fastest commercially available computer on the planet (or was last Christmas. ;) I'm not too worried.

Some overwrite and that is ok and is usually noted.... however when you are patching a mod for compatibility etc..., make sure when is ask you if you are updating (first popup) click NO, then click yes to overwrite.  You should be ok.

Thx!

The High Quality 3D Map is confusing me a bit. I've installed Meshes Hi-Res and Normals Original (because there has to be a normals file and there's only one at the moment), but since I'm downloading and activating Skyrim HD 2K textures (full not lite) I should DL and activate  "HQ3DMap - Textures Skyrim HD 4k" to go with that and not the version for "Realistic Skyrim" (which doesn't seem to exist anymore or something anyway)... right?

Is the "Skyrim Community uncapper" the same as the Skyrim Redon UNCAP? Redundant but different mods (only need one)? Do different things?

Use the community uncapper, I have not used the other.

"T3nd0s Skyrim Redone UNCAP" It's in your list, right beneath Skyrim Redone

Install the Community Uncapper first, then install Skyyrim Redone. It will prompt you to replace a file from the community uncapper, say yes to all

Have to go back and look.... but Kushan is right.

Okay it turns out both mods are actually the same mod: trying to install both resulted in a message that the mod was being duplicated. (I might have noticed the mod number for both of the "uncappers" in your list was the same. Sorry.)

At any rate I deactivated Skyre, activated the Uncapper, then reactivated Skyre saying yes to all consequent replaces.

Note to PE, you don't currently have a link to "Armor Dovahkiin and Forest Elves" in your Excel file. Was there a problem with it? (I haven't downloaded any of the single armors yet, just the two big armor packs.)

No issue with it as it is a stand alone mod.... I did not really care for it so I removed it but left it on the main page in case someone else liked it.  The only amour mods you have to worry about are those that replace texture files or alter mesh files, stand alone are no sweat.

Clarification question: does one of the programs automatically move the mods around in the load order properly? Is that BOSS?--or does it only check for conflicts? NMM certainly can move mods around in the load order manually.
