Nice.

BUT NOW SKYRIM IS CTD-ING EVERY FIVE MINUTES RAAAGGHHH.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
That's my modlist. The CTD happens basically randomly, after a few minutes of walking around Skyrim. The issues have started to appear very recently, there have been basically no CTDs up to now :c
You're better off googling how to enable Skyrim's error logs and reading that.

Read this guide, and this guide too. Also, do not use NMM (or wait for 0.5, where they promise same functionality), use ModOrganizer instead. Also, read and use STEP Guide at least up (and including) to "2E.Interface" part. I have a much bigger modlist, and not CTD'ed ever once.

I loved it when James ran out of ammo and resorted to punching radscorpions, mutants, deathclaws and raiders to death with his bare hands. It was glorious.

My buddy had 3 on Xbox and he started a new game as a punchey type character. This led to us figuring out you could punch out your dad at various parts of the character creation process. At one part, the teen years or something the character punched his dad until he was on the ground unconscious, where the pummeling continued. Then the Dad's assistant walked in and just gave the character a look and said a totally appropriate line I forgot, something along the lines of  "That was rude".  It was really funny.

Why am I not supposed to use NMM?

Because when NNM installs mods,  they overwrite loose files from previous mods (which may be better optimized or bug-less. Or may be not). So, in NNM mod installation order is sometimes very significant. ModOrganizer does not ever install anything to the Skyrim folder, instead, order of overwriting is based on the mod position in the list of mods (which can be changed). It also keeps Skyrim directory clean from mods and allows different "modpacks"  (they are called profiles in ModOrganizer).

Alright, I've spent a day doing all that, but I don't think I'm going to switch mod managers yet (if this works)

What about manual downloads? That's what I do, does that have the same problems? (I know it does with some scripts, but most stuff I thought it was pretty safe)

7/10 Has much more memorable sigs but casts them to the realm of sigtexts.

Indeed, I do this.

Manual does too as you get those popups to overwrite files, Mod Organizer's system keeps every mod in separate folders and just spoofs the location so incase there is a resource conflict it can be easily identified.

So, having moved away from my awesome gaming computer and using a somewhat less awesome laptop, I haven't played this in quite some time. Any tips to get it to run appreciably but not look like Oblivion?

No more CTD's \o/

(I crashed once because I ran out of memory but that doesn't count as a random CTD)

It depends on your rig. I've had good fps with texture decreaser mods, and quality was not so bad as it would have seem to. View distances was almost maxed, btw. But it needs fine-tuning in the configuration, set low settings and up the view distances till unplayable fps.

Hey, guys. Anyone have any good werewolf mods? I use Royal Bloodlines and Better Vampires for the vampire lord, and was wondering if anything similar is available for good ol' lycanthropy.

I suppose Tales of Lycanthropy might do, although I don't how updated it is.
