Just switched around the mods for Skyrim. Changed from SkyRe to Perky, which seems to be more balanced in regard to magic. (From a glance, I haven't played around with weapons enough yet.) Got a few more quest mods.

Also, the first quest in Wheels of Lull is really hard. My tactics:

-Console commands, tgm
-BURN AHAHAHAHAHA BUUUUUURN

Although that might have been because SkyRe too.

Right now I'm using a few utility mods like General Storage (with the cloud storage for Hearthfire homes or something with autosorting), Amazing Follower Tweaks (lets me set *everything* about my followers like gear, alternate dresses for home, and I think I can have up to 5 followers at the same time but I'm using just 2), the brawl bugs patch (apparently some other mods which add magic effects autofail the Brawling challenges), glowing ore veins. Also a spell to autoupgrade leveled items (like the prizes the Jarls give you) but I haven't used it yet.

Knocked my Skyrim back to vanilla again.

Gonna have to work with JUST Skyre and Immersive Armors 7 till I manage to mash them together JUST RIGHT. 10 hour installations are not something I'm prepared to make a regular event.

After I (hopefully) work that out I'll do another full install and cross my fingers that I'm not making some enormous, obvious script overwriting error or something with my installation order.

Also, apparently vanilla Skyrim has no scripts folder...this caused a bit of panic when I first looked at it....I've been modding this ALOT.




WHAT THE FUCK.
CONTROL GROUP BUGGIER THEN TEN HOUR MODSET.
THE CARRIAGE IN OPENING CUTSCENE FLIPPED OVER.
REPEATEDLY.
TRIED TO PUT IN ALTERNATE START, DOESN'T REGISTER, STILL CARRIAGE FLIP CITY.
GAME OFFICIALLY HAUNTED.

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

Indeed, I do this.

How sure are you that you have a clean install? Did you actually straight-up delete your Data folder? IIRC, Skyrim's own uninstall procedure doesn't touch mods.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Yes, I straight up deleted my data folder and then had steam "verify integrity"

So yeah, looks like I'm going to have to try this AGAIN.

One of my friends once had the carriage flip in a pure vanilla game, I think he even recorded it.

All of helgen can be really buggy on consoles too. Not entirely mod related.

Helgen uses TONS of scripts. Even unmodded console they break. Better to just avoid it lol.

Hmm....I THINK I have an idea. Its so stupidly simple I don't know why I didn't think of it before.

Anyone know where/how to modify Immersive Armors values directly? I could just freaking MANUALLY type in the correct values for shit when it breaks.
It looks like it might need the Creation Kit, but I have that installed already (Though as for actually USING it....lol. The one time I tried I couldn't manage to LOAD THE SKYRIM FOLDER. I have the most anachronistic modding abilities ever.)

Secondary related question: Is it possible to modify the "default" values for different MCMs? I often find myself spending upwards of ten minutes just getting all the various settings the way I want them at the start of a new game.
Also if this is possible and I can fix the bugs I'm having I could totally pull a Vendayn and give you guys a compilation thing so you can enjoy the fruits of my labors as well.

Modding Skyrim is such a headache—it's terrible. I haven't even bothered installing Skyrim and my mods again since my old computer was stolen, and it's probably just as well. I'm just slightly disappointed that even with all of the super-cool mods Skyrim has, there is nothing that can repair the lacklustre story :/

In Creation Kit related news, apparently I don't know how to double click.

This was the major thing stopping me from being able to use this.

I am retarded.

I just decided to use a non-SkyRe mod.

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/12862/?

It's worked a lot better for me than SkyRe has, and since its only out-of-perk edits are a single spell (IIRC, may be a couple more), it's much more compatible with other mods.

But I LOVE SkyRe
I don't WANT a different perk mod. :(

Anyway, I think I've determined what the problem was.

I didn't actually have the Reproccer.

I only had the .esp from the SkyRe downloader, assumed it was the whole thing.
Much arg is currently ensuing.

So, now that I ACTUALLY HAVE THE REPROCCER, I am having a problem with it (of course :P) specifically, it doesn't think I have the skyre_main file...even though its like three spaces below it.
Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong NOW? My best guess is its looking in the wrong place for stuffs, but I don't know how to set the path for this thing, only options it gives are "patch" and "don't patch" which is frustrating.

Subdirectory ReProccer should be put in is \Data\SkyProc Patchers\T3nd0_ReProccer, which should be preserved by the zipped file. 

Also, there are also other significant compatibility issues with Immersive Armor and certain other mods that won't be resolved by ReProccer alone.  I use this massive compatibility patch, which helps with Immersive Armor, Immersive Weapons, Immersive Creatures, CCOR, CCOand a bunch of other mods that I don't actually use, but thankfully don't need to actually install since it's all modular.
