Beginner's Questions About Skyrim

[K Candyman]

haha that one never gets old

[Regin]

Can i use sanguine rose, to create dremora, slay them, take the daedra hart for smithing armor/ weapons n sheit?

[Aarah]

No, unfortunately you cannot get anything from the summoned Dremora, including its heart or its soul.

[Regin]

I have a very stupid question, on witch i did not got an answer thus far.
Do i need to install the patches sequetialy in order of apearance, for them to work propertly? AKA, i dont want to f something up and loose my current progres. I want to get rid of the most gliches, before i start another caracter.
Main reason, why i want to update it is to instal one mod in particular, because the women in skyrim are butt ugly, and they hurt my eyes, and scare the sheit out of me (yes i have a phobia of ugly women, and i am not kidding) I know the last sentence is maybe off topic, and comic, but im dead serious.

[OblivionDuruza]

I assume you're referring to Bethesda's official patches for the PC? Their installation is via Steam, so when you enable the updating option Steam should take care of everything, including the order. If you install the patches via Steam you shouldn't have any problems.

Here is the recommended load order from the Patch Team:

After installing the individual mods, the following general load order needs to be followed:

Skyrim.esm
Update.esm
Unofficial Skyrim Patch.esp
Dawnguard.esm
Unofficial Dawnguard Patch.esp
Hearthfires.esm
Unofficial Hearthfire Patch.esp
Dragonborn.esm
Unofficial Dragonborn Patch.esp
HighResTexturePack01.esp
HighResTexturePack02.esp
HighResTexturePack03.esp
Unofficial High Resolution Patch.esp

If you use the Nexus Mod Manager it won't let you do it that way. Here is what my load order looks like:

Skyrim.esm
Update.esm
Dawnguard.esm
Hearthfires.esm
Dragonborn.esm
HighResTexturePack01.esp
HighResTexturePack02.esp
HighResTexturePack03.esp
Unofficial Skyrim Patch.esp
Unofficial Dawnguard Patch.esp
Unofficial Hearthfire Patch.esp
Unofficial Dragonborn Patch.esp
Unofficial High Resolution Patch.esp

It works fine that way. I think they key is to have the patches load before any other mod.

[Zephyr]

Skyrim.esm
Update.esm
Unofficial Skyrim Patch.esp
Dawnguard.esm
Unofficial Dawnguard Patch.esp
Hearthfires.esm
Unofficial Hearthfire Patch.esp
Dragonborn.esm
Unofficial Dragonborn Patch.esp
HighResTexturePack01.esp
HighResTexturePack02.esp
HighResTexturePack03.esp
Unofficial High Resolution Patch.esp

If you use the Nexus Mod Manager it won't let you do it that way.

It does if you run BOSS.

[Khali]

I'm not a fan of BOSS. I prefer to set load order myself.

[Regin]

Post removed.

[OblivionDuruza]

That would be your problem then. Unfortunately, there's not a lot we can do to help you, as the UESP Forums Terms of Service, as well as the Rules, prohibit us from doing so.

That aside, the Nexus Mod Manager is experiencing some issues at the moment.

[Regin]

I apologise for the unconviniance.

[OblivionDuruza]

No worries, an easy enough mistake to make and no inconvenience on our part. Sorry again that we couldn't be of more help here.

[Regin]

Is there a console comand or mod or fix, to fuc.kin glue the items to shelwes or tables or floor and stop them flyin around, because a rabit leg in breezehome is driving me crazy, i put it on the plate, get out, turn back an she is half way the room.

[The SheoDovah]

I think there is but unfortunatly, i have no experience with the console commands. It's caused by the physic's engine throwing a hissy fit due to Havoc being used. But if you save after placing items, it should prevent the game from chucking stuff on the floor. I hope this helps!

[Regin]

Havoc being used

Pardon me, that random flyin [&@%!] is caused by engine?

But if you save after placing items, it should prevent the game from chucking stuff on the floor. I hope this helps!

I noticed that when placing armor on maneqiuns and its disapearing or becoming invisible, maybe it will help,shure gona try.

But still i would like the console comand, just to get it stuck, im not beliveing the word that get out of my mouth XD , purely for decorations purposes.

[Regin]

Why is patch 1.9.32 so hard on the performance, its realy a mistery to me, because i get abnormal fps drop.

Unthill i patched up to it i played 1.8.++ for runing dragonborn, and now like im playing on a goddamn celeron.

[The SheoDovah]

What mods do you have installed? I've heard that patch 1.9 causes a lot of problems with certain mods and it may be worth reinstalling everything to see if it solves it. If that doesn't work, try playing it without the mods to see if that is causing it. Could be worth resetting the cache to see if that works. I hope this helps!

[Regin]

Performance plus mod(disabled pine needles, aspen leaves, snow)
Ultimate lush
Beter riften
Whiteruntrees
Greenwaterfix
Hd rock textures from a russian moder at nexus
I targeted the most low graphicaly impactive enviromental mods.
This far i played on ultra high detail, but ive trimed down shadow detil and water properties and lowered the antialiasin and anisotropic filtering and its good now. Smooth and silky.
Tel me, i have some clocking space on gpu an cpu, will it help boost the performance a litle?

[Regin]

Does riding another horse after aquiring shadowmere makes it stop folowing me on ft?

[K Candyman]

if you buy another horse it does I'm sure of that.

and when you steal a horse shadow mere will ft with you. But I am not sure:P

also a possibility is that you lose shadow mere till the one you rid last dies, after that shadowmere will be your horse again.(I've had this with Frost instead of shadow mere but i think it works the same)

for al of the above, I am not a 100% sure so you should check the wiki or try yourself

[OblivionDuruza]

Shadowmere will stay at the location which you left him when you dismounted if you mount another owned horse. As you seem to be playing on PC, it might help to use the following console commands to locate Shadowmere, before leaving him in a safe location so that you can find him easily in future.

Code: Select all

prid 0009CCD8

Code: Select all

moveto player

It's also worth noting that if Shadowmere dies he'll respawn 10 days later at the location of his death or in the black pool near the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary (if he died in a location he can't respawn into).[/color]

[Regin]

Me again with gues what, questions.

I have a question about Vurths skyrim flora overhaul.
Its working fine, and looks good, BUT!, random sheit falls from the sky on fast travel, like animals, carts, random npc, and ist kind of anoying.
How to solve this, do the optional files do that, because i dont really get what for are they.
I have instaled cbbe, and some armor mods and replacers, and it has lots of clipping issues, is it caused by the cbbe body or by the mods? And what to do with that, because i really hate armor beneath the skin type of glitch.

[Ursula R. M.]

This problem happens in the Vanilla games with no Mods too.
Flying Mammoths seems to be pretty common. See the wierd glitches thread too to see more stuff.

[The SheoDovah]

The random stuff falling from the sky is a glitch caused by the Creation Engine. It seems to either misplace the animal or item or someone messed up with the code and it was never fixed due to it being a very low priority. I think the unoffical Skyrim Patch fixes it. It fixes a lot of glitches that Bethesda couldn't or was unwilling to fix and we have a link to it on the wiki.

[Aarah]

I just started Dawnguard and I know at some point you have to choose between Dawnguard member or a vampire.
I think I want to choose vampire, but im wondering whether this will have an impact on the whole game upon completion of the quest line, namely:

Will I have to stay as a vampire?
As the vampire's mission is to blot out the sun; if we succeed, does this mean that Skyrim will be in darkness thereafter?

Im trying to find out the answers without seeing any spoilers.
