I managed to create a Skyrim which has seemingly infinite grass fields via optical illusion and which runs very well on my single GTX 770 4gb and stock i5 4670k together with some heavy ENB effects, tweaked ultra shadows and 4k parallax textures with 1920x1080 resolution. FPS is stable 34-48 everywhere without stuttering.[sp]Don't mind the blurry quality in the pics.[/sp][/QUOTE] Holy shit what ENB/SweetFX is that and how can I replace my game with it

I swam to solstheim from Vvardenfell in like 1 minute thanks to fortify speed enchants. Holy shit is solstheim barren as fuck. I thought "Why the fuck isn't raven rock here? Where are all the buildings?" Talked to the lone imperial that was there. "This is the site for a [I]proposed[/I] ebony mine" My face at that exact moment of reading that text: :downs:

[QUOTE=cdr248;46966272]You know, the boat to solstheim is only like 20g.[/QUOTE] Then I got shafted, 'cause it cost me [i]200 gold[/i] to get there.

I just fly to Solstheim with Windwalker. In fact, I travel almost anywhere with Windwalker.

I think I got my Dad addicted to Skyrim, he told me he's played over 20 hours so far.

This came immediately after a quest I did for the civil war, Imperial side I made my mission out of adopting this girl If I can ask, in order to adopts children you must specifically get an house from the Heartfire DLC or a city house will do?

Either one is fine as long as you have a children's bedroom ready for them.

Thing is, I don't really see why should I build a house in a random lot plagued by giants and beasts if I can buy my wife and child a home in Solitude

I recently tried the new Race Menu and i'm impressed.

I was going to kill Vivec, but after removing Lorkhan's Heart from Nirn and then talking to him, he seems like a pretty chill dude.

I wish there was a way to just tell what mods I had on my PC at home. I wanna play skyrim but I can't remember what all mods I had. EDIT: well, now I installed all the mods I had on my PC at home. Now my savegame crashes on startup :/ I also started a new game and the wagon that you start on is spazzing out. Guess I'll just copy my entire skyrim folder to my laptop next time I'm home, I'd rather not start a character all over.

Enchanting in morrowind is so ridiculously under-powered. The stupid limits on items make it impossible to make any viable fortify items. Go to skaal village to get fortify skill spells. That makes enchant go to 110 and then enchant with anything. Thanks UESP. [editline]20th January 2015[/editline] I fucking LOVE the Bloodmoon expansion. Fucking seeing Raven Rock being formed into an imperial town is so cool. I can't wait until I find out why the architecture changed from what it was in morrowind.

Just got elder scrolls online about two days ago, and to begin with i chose to play a nightblade. However, i've never really enjoyed playing rogue-like classes (i try every time) so i'm pretty sure i'll pick one of the three other classes. Anybody have any suggestion as to which of the three are more noob-friendly/fun to play as?

So the other day I was playing and got attacked by some Thalmor. Apparently I have a death sentence from the elves as my Dwemer character after talking to some and getting stuck with being accused of worshiping Talos. So after I kill them I set their prisoner free and that has them so pissed that whenever I see Thalmor I end up in a fight.

[QUOTE=Pops;46973030]is it his first tes?[/QUOTE] Nah he's got a lot of hours logged into Morrowind. He's generally quite into Fantasy, he got me into Baldur's Gate: Shadows of Alm when that first came out. He also told me when he was around my age he used to play D&D tabletop as a Dwarf character :v:

Started up Daggerfall again, modded it again, modernized the controls, PLEASE DON'T RANDOMLY DELETE MY SAVES LIKE LAST TIME, GAME. I really wanna take my time and complete it.

I really wanna take my time and complete it.[/QUOTE] Last time I tried Daggerfall, I went at it wholeheartedly, created a character with backstory and everything, made it past the first dungeon, made it to the first town, went to another dungeon, and got the final tutorial prompt. I clicked it, whereupon my game crashed. I reloaded, crashed on prompt. Tried triggering prompt in other area, crash. Tried reloading to an earlier save, crashed on the next tutorial prompt. Tried making a new game, crashed on the first tutorial prompt. Nothing I can do, then weird corruption shit happened, RIP game, had to uninstall. Felt like a whole lot of effort gone down the drain and it's been hard for me to play the game since.

[QUOTE=Mister Sandman;46976402]Felt like a whole lot of effort gone down the drain and it's been hard for me to play the game since.[/QUOTE] Something similar just happened to me... gah. Nevermind then. Or I'll just try one more time... it's a fun game, just buggy as all hells.

[QUOTE=lightningstreak;46944034]Mmm that new ENB smell[/QUOTE] You mean burning electronics?

Plus it's good for roleplay as you can use it to roleplay a warrior of Stendarr/Meridia

I had that same bug and for some reason paralysis immunity is what caused it. I don't have the bug anymore, it just went away on it's own some how. Wish I could tell you how I fixed it.

[QUOTE=Wickerman123;46976745]You mean burning electronics?[/QUOTE] I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of my computer fan. No seriously I really can't, I can't hear anything anymore.

Just gotta say PerMa's perks look really sweet but I just wish it was PERKS ONLY. Seriously, why do some modders feel the need to change much more than is needed?

[QUOTE=Sharker;46977375][t]http://i.imgur.com/vCzueYl.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Really like the colours in that one.
