I'm trying to extract the textures for the HUD but I can't see to find them. Anyone know where they're located?

[efecanefe]

is there any mod we can join aldmeri dominion?
I played thalmor start mod but it boring and no quests

[lavacano]

[QUOTE=simkas;47113638]Ok so I installed a mod that actually displays my fps and how much memory Skyrim is using and it only seems to use like 1 gig even though it detects there being 4 gigs of memory available. I thought one of the patches was supposed make Skyrim use more memory or could this be because of other reasons?[/QUOTE]

It could just be that your install of Skyrim doesn't have more than 1GB worth of stuff it needs to keep track of.

Is there any particular way to get sweetfx to work with skyrim?
It just crashes on startup for me

It should just work out of the box, I use it with ENBoost and it runs just fine. What version of SweetFX are you trying to use?

They should be packed in the Skyrim - Interface.bsa
There should be BSA browsing/unpacking tools on the Nexus

Also, I believe they are actually flash files, like .swf or .gfx or something

yeah they are

I gave up because I couldn't extract them properly. The extracting software I had could only extract 2 at a time (unless I paid) and it would only extract them in a swf image format.

[QUOTE]Sissel is a Nord child living in Rorikstead. She is the daughter of Lemkil and has a twin sister, Britte. Their mother died after giving birth to the twins and Lemkil now takes his frustrations out on his daughters, a fact that worries the small community no end.
Sissel wakes up every day at 6am and immediately exits the family house. Britte, however, will be quick to follow and Sissel then spends her entire day on the run from her bullying sister. This goes on for twelve solid hours, until Sissel finally gets a break at 6pm. She then heads over to her only friend, retired mage Jouane Manette in Rorik's Manor who secretly teaches her magic tricks so she can defend herself. At 8pm, with nothing better to do, Sissel reluctantly returns to the house, where she stays until her bedtime at midnight.[/QUOTE]

Ladies and gentlemen, Sofie is getting a sister

Downloaded but I'm confused, how to get the actual wheel?
It just shows up with a normal menu for me

Nevermind, didn't download latest version

I've been playing this game so long I'm starting to see double
On a side note, I managed to adopt Sissel. The only issue is that, in order to found her at Riften's orphanage, you must murder her father first.
Now I'm the most wanted man in Whiterun and its regions, but being good feels good

Been away from here for a while so forgive me for asking this if it's a stupid question.
But what are the general thoughts on the elder scrolls online?

Personally I've never played a MMO before, and usually game just on console. Was wondering if it's worth me getting excited for or not.

It was generally received as a flop.
Don't get your hopes up for anything amazing... or great... or good...

[QUOTE=Excalibuurr;47121323]It is average, didn't really live up to the hype.[/QUOTE]

I don't remember there being much hype here for TESO.

It was mostly people who were different from the regulars of this thread.

[QUOTE=Excalibuurr;47119372]Are you serious? There should be some free BSA unpacking tools on the Nexus.[/QUOTE]I think he means extracting resources from the actual .swf/.gfx files? I've never heard of a BSA tool that costs money.

I personally like it for the freedom it allows, but my MMO experience is limited to Spiral Knights a few years ago and Runescape plus a bunch of random MMOs I played when I was little, so I really don't know how it stacks up in comparison to others out there.

It's a decent MMO, but a bad Elder Scrolls game. Next month, they're dropping the subscription model so that you only have to pay for the base game and you're free to play it forever, like Guild Wars 2.

How do I get Immersive Weapons to work properly with requiem?

All the weapons that get added have really weak stats

Sounds like you're using a crap program.

Try FOMM's BSA unpacker.

[editline]12th February 2015[/editline]

So you don't get hung up on "extracting a SWF":

When you want a file from a .7z archive, do you use a "JPG extractor" or do you just use 7-Zip? Same idea with BSAs and BSA unpacking tools

The SWF files themselves contain resources he wants to get at. We're well past the BSA issue.

it was pretty obvious from the beta days that it would go f2p within a year

Some smart (uhum) people already predicted this over a year ago. Like it was foretold in an elder scroll.

[Dr.Critic]

The TEStanic has launched the same F2P lifeboat as the TORtanic then? No surprise at all, saw that coming the instant I heard about TES online.

A lot of people like myself find MMO's to just be cut down, unmoddable, barely mediocre RPGs that require an always on internet connection, are formulaic, boring and reward you with painfully craptastic looking gameplay. Typically its only once you've wasted hours upon hours of your life trudging through absolute garbage almost-zero effort quests, errands and filler will you finally reach something approaching enjoyable.

Can somebody help me out ? I've been trying to use Mod organizer and been gradually adding mods manually, meaning I download them manually from the Nexus and then import them into Mod manager and install them. First 3 to 4 mods went fine, shut down my computer to do something else but now when I try to add a mod the same way like I did the previous ones I get the following message.

[t]http://puu.sh/fPo2p/5a675973f5.png[/t]

So, any way to fix this ? I tried opening the 7zip files and I could clearly see the contents so it's not like they're corrupt or anything.

Why don't you pick "Download Via Manager" for the mods that let you?

ok im going to explain this one more time in fully

Using a BSA Extractor, I extracted a file called hudmenu.gfx which I then converted hudemenu.sfw

I needed to install a suspicious third party program that would allow me to extract all the images, but I couldn't because the images were not in an image format, they were in a sfw format.

there were about 600 assets and I could only extract two at a time unless I paid for the full version, and it would only extract a sfw out of the sfw for some fucking reason so I gave up and made an oblivion hud in gmod instead
