Faggotry: the thread.

yeah if you haven't heard there are such things as Free mods.

>>13723093

Not if companies like Bethesda/Zenimax, Valve, and the cronies that Valve have on board with the Steam Workshop get their way.

>>13723150

yeah i doubt even if those companies combined could ever remove free mods.

they are trying to scrape money out of a fountain with no money. and their grubby fingers will only dirty it.

Mods have always been about players who really enjoyed the game and wanted new experiences with it. games in the past didn't have mod support and players hacked their way into adding mods. bethesda has a dev kit but its lackluster and most of the mods are hacked into the game.

Just play gothic. In literally everything skyrim is made of it always tries to parody a better game

>Mod contents all get saved in the same folders and you always have to make sure that you never overwrite other mods.

>Uninstalling mods is a fucking pain in the ass because there is no way to see what file belongs to which mod.>No way to see which mods conflict with each other except through Trial & Error.

>You don't see which mods have dependencies and what these dependencies are.

You should never put mods in your skyrim data folder, you should always be using Mod Organizer.

Mod organiser uses a virtual folder where you dont actually mix your files and game data together.

Mod Managers always crashed on me for whatever reason when I toggle one on/off.

Anyone else getting Cloudflare errors?

>>13723265

after you toggle it off you need to sort the plugins, there is a button that says sort you click that then you play.

skyrim is using an old engine and it doesn't like files that are out of order.

there is also a thing called Tes5edit, when you run it, it tells you which mods need dependencies and which mod is crashing your game.

>>13723279

>Tes5edit

there are some cool new mods for skyrim.

>>>/vp/

Can it be done? Can skyrim be modded into a good game?

>>13723334

With a custom campaign, maybe

>>13723353

oh i forgot, there's a multiplayer mod.

I'd be bothered with this game if someone made a modded pack that I could just download, I don't feel like spending time doing this shit myself

>>13723640

There is nothing that can be done to this game to make it good. I know. I spent 50 hours installing mods, finding the best ones, making sure nothing conflicts, doubling back to make sure I didn't miss anything cool; then I started the game and remembered it's still a piece of shit at it's core, and all I did was fancy up a walking simulator that pretends to be a choice driven rpg.

Don't bother.

>>13723652

Its crazy to think. In my experience mods make a mediocre game better or fix crucial bugs or even make great games even better. Yet Skyrim is truly unsalvageable. Immersion sucks, quests suck, RPG mechanics suck, combat sucks, animations suck, the world is boring, the dungeons repetitive slogs. You can "fix" some of these, maybe even all of them, but you're still playing Skyrim and all the problems it brings.

>>13723652

>>13723701

This has been my experience too guys. Every now and then I think the same thing, but I remember how much trouble it was, and how the gameplay is so unsatisfying at its core and the world doesn't feel natural or lived in that I always get bored.

>>13723334

use 0sex, then a shit game becomes a mediocre porn game.

Any mod where I can check repeating digits?

>>13723396

Tamriel Online seems to be abandoned, and Skyrim Together isn't out yet. ST seems to be very promising, though.

>>13724312

its funner than fallout 4

This kind of shitty poll threads used to reach at least 100 before scat club. Boy oh boy bgs really managed to alienate consumers.

I take the opportunity to remind:

-Marked for death shout is still broken

-drain vitality shout is still broken

-new alliances quest is still broken

-the gildergaden is still broken

-litany of larceny questline is still broken

-weapons dropped by dead npcs still don't despawn

-some mines (near markarth, near shor's stone) still have enemies that respawn after you clean them up, the forsworn in markarth respan outside the miners' house

-wolves still don't howl

-fortobserver quest never stops, preventing the cleaning up of civil war forts.

Just a few bugs that came to mind.

I got a hire muscle quest that involved punching up talsgar the wanderer, that despawn. I doubt it can be fixed since his refid is gone. But you can remove talsgar from the list of npcs that you have to intimidate.

So, CRAZY IDEA, how about instead of paying an idiot for mudcrab armor, you pay for someone TO FIX THE FUCKING GAME. The unofficial patch is tacky, it fixes most issues but add some retarded shit, like the ebony blade not being upgradable and some other BS fake loremasters want to impose. Why they decided to go past fixing the game is beyond me. Fucking modders can't get shit right.

if you ever needed proof that the cuckchanners and neofaggots are among us, here it is.

>>13725366

the only cuckchan here is you.

>>13725570

do you know how to read?

8chan hate

the dubs

>>13723063

sure

Uninstall.exe is the best fucking mod I've ever seen, makes Skyrim indefinitely better than it could ever be. Also check my dubs.
