build advice

1. Don't use the workshop, except for mods that are only available there.

2. Use either NMM, or Mod Organizer, but mods that require SKSE must be installed manually, if you use Mod Organizer (Mod Organizer tries to keep your Skyrim folder free of mods, but that obfuscation messes up SKSE mdos, even some that don't have DLL plugins).

3. BOSS: http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/20516/?
It helps sort out load order, and find files that need cleaning. Generally, mods that are still supported don't need cleaning, but some older mods, prior to effective and stable TES5Edit, do, and it's not a bad idea to clean the official expansion ESMs. Don't clean the unofficial patches, though, as their dirty edits are bug fixes. A few other mods, like the guard dialog overhaul, also shouldn't be cleaned (but BOSS makes a note of the known ones). Installed into your Skyrim folder, it will scan the mods, and then open a browser with the log.

4. Yes, worry about load order. It's been a problem since good ol' Morrowind. Install order can matter for conflicting mods, but only those that need to overwrite another's files.

This discussion has drifted extremely far from hardware topics, I'd suggest making a Skyrim mod thread over in PC Gaming and taking that part of the discussion over there.

was already thinking about that. although these should be the last questions i need to play skyrim specifically the enb question. just need to know if project enb is compatable with enb .245. it is made for enb .221

will think about making a pc gaming thread over there after this.

thankyou

That's the thing, it seems like Cerb is the only person who peruses this forum that knows jack about Skyrim mods. I sure don't. You'll get more and faster responses over in PC Gaming.

 

[norseamd]

alright. thankyou for giving me a heads up.

 

[norseamd]

if i wanted to make a thread on any of the following topics where should they go?

the future of enthusiast and hpc
the future of amd
21st century space

they all seem like they could go in the discussion club but it seems like not very many people post there. space could easily go in off topic. but the other two i am confused as to where they would best go.

the future of enthusiast and hpc

Here in General Hardware or in CPUs & Overclocking

the future of amd

CPUs & Overclocking or Video Cards & Graphics depending on the focus. Be warned, this type of thread usually brings the trolls out of the woodwork.

21st century space

Off Topic

more about everything the company does. hsa, cloud, hpc, embedded would all be covered under this topic.

Those sound like CPUs & Overclocking topics to me. Lots of general architecture discussions go on over there.

 

[norseamd]

thankyou.

created a thread in pc gaming. please leave this thread unlocked so if i have a problem with my computer i can use this thread again.

I was just about to mention that other forum, if he made more SKyrim posts. It will keep the thread near the top for something unrelated to GH.
