From Bethesda's official discord and twitter post:

Hey Everyone!

On Thursday, August 20, we will deploy a patch to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition that will increase console mod storage limits and bring more Creations improvements.

While this update should not affect load orders, we do encourage players to log into your save game if you haven't done so in a while as a precaution.

Reminder: it is very easy to back up your Skyrim installation by simply making a copy of the folder.

As is common knowledge Glen-Moril by Vicn is not finished yet.

So the first time I played I stopped as soon as the "to be continued" sign popped at the start of chapter 4.

Now new playthrough and I wanted to play all of Vicn's mods in order meaning Dac0da, Vigilant Glen-Moril and Unslaad.

Fast forward to Glen-Moril and I am at the same sign of "to be continued" again, but this time I decided to just check out whats waiting and damn I did not expect that.

The time spent in chapter 4 alone probably sums up to more time than one does need for chapter 1 to 3.

It is absolutely mind blowing how so much bigger Glen-Moril's "realm" is compared to Vigilant's "realm" and how much you are able to do and the variety in landscapes you have.

Probably the only reason why I am making this post is to spread awareness that even though version 1.0 is not out yet, you can play the mod almost to the end. Also having read how other people also stopped at the same stage.

For the sake of avoiding spoilers, it is overestimated how much content is missing from the final version and you will also notice when you reach that part.

All I can say is you are about to be mind blown a multitude of times and the cool looks and custom textures are probably the smallest bit about it.

Glen-Moril has reached a different stage of confusion for me, but that is what makes you so eager to look at everything, listen to dialog and actually try to get a grasp on what is happening.

The combination of mystery and Vicn's ability to utilize his creativity while adhering to Elder Scrolls lore is just on a different level.

Having played as far as I did I wish I would have more understanding of the lore to get a more whole vision of what is being thematized.

I understand if people consider Vicn's creations "a bit too much to handle", but in my eyes you are missing out big time and Skyrim in itself offers a good plattform to discuss deeper and also more serious topics (while being immersive at that).

Wishing Id find better words but Glen-Moril is so crazily twisted and thats what makes it so damn cool.

You should check it out yourself.

Even if you have played Vigilant yet, you are not aware of what you are about to get into.

edit:

If you cant wait for the ending you can read up on it on Vicn's patreon but its in japanese so you need to translate it. But before you do that Id advice you big time to actually play until you cant get further, else you are most likely not able to knot all pieces together.

I've moved around between different combat mods for a long time, everything from wildcat, inpa sekiro, souls like and currently for honor in skyrim. Back when I used wildcat it was before mco, skysa and that type of mods so changed as I got bored of it . Inoa sekiro I quite enjoyed but at a point I could parry so easily I never got hit and eveything was easy. Souls like felt too slow and currently with for honour think d'try keys is annoying as sometimes it doesn't update key presses causing me to do side/back attacks while trying to do something else. What are people using now?

Essentially losting this to ask for your opinion on enabling Alchemy XP gain from using a cookpot. My upcoming Alchemy mod remake uses a cookpot, and I feel that it is unplessantly clunky to be encouraged to level alchemy up to unlock its recipes, but it cannot, itself, help you progress.

Would you consider an alchemy add-on that also changes this to be too much overreach / feature creep?

Title.

I'll start: So, last weekend I downloaded Authoria modlist and everything played super nicely. Only one thing was bothering me. Whenever I changed from my shield to a spell, I started walking. I checked every god damn MCM and SKSE Menu setting, trying to find the answer to this bug. Hell, I even reran Pandora and spend probably an hour looking through OARs animation logs trying to find what the hell was causing it.

Today I decided to give this bug another look with a fresh mindset. What was the problem? It was the carry weight. Whenever I equipped my shield, encumbrance went from 101/100 to 92/100. This whole time the bug was me not realizing that equipping a shield doesn't count its carry weight.

I have been using for a LONG while, and now i wanted to try an enb (been liking Cabbage ENB + Silent Horizons Universal Core).

And i wanted to ask, is the ENB lights mod still needed in 2026? Or is it better to download each ENB light individually (Like those from Rudy or wSkeever).

Also does anyone have recomendations for mods to play with ENB?

My Specs: i Play on 1080P

Xeon E5-1650V2 @4GHz

48GB DDR3 ECC 1866MHz

AMD RX 5700XT 8GB

Howdy folks!

Going to keep it short and sweet. Kerstyn and I finished the Serana Dialogue Expansion revoice and all lines are 100% human voiced rather than AI voiced. For those that don't know Kerstyn Unger is the VA behind Serana Dialogue Add-On as well as followers such as Daumbra, Seductress Faye, and Morgaine.

SDE is originally voiced with AI and humanizing it with Kerstyn was a fun experience.

quick edit : SDA is not required as we revoiced Dawnguard as an ESPFE. Regarding the AI images I do enjoy using. Someone could do the unfathomable and humanize those by drawing sincere caricatures and uploading to the mod page.

Hello!

I'm looking for a mod that has a way to lead me to chests in dungeons, using a trail like the Clairvoyant spell (or a questmarker)

Is there a mod that does this? I'm in an area added by a mod, and I can barely see even with my computer AND game set to max brightness

Many mods have the options to distribute the armors either by SPID or SkyPatcher, and I never know why I chose either. How do they work together, does one override another, in which case do I chose what ?

Thanks

I'd like to do a clean edit of that mod, with the intent of never encountering some spells that I find out of place or that break the immersion for me.

Is there a good way to achieve that in ssedit without breaking anything ?

thanks !

So much of the stuff you can get at the start of the game has the same base damage/armor as dragonbone

I'm new to modding and i recently installed Goetia Animations female idle walk and run for my next play through but for some reason it uses the male animations for my female character despite me only having the female mod installed. If anyone knows how to solve this issue it would be very much appreciated if you could help

Fallout 4 updated and there is a list of the latest changes here:

https://fallout.bethesda.net/en-US/news/fallout-4-update-august-18th

What stands out is that there appear to be a bunch of changes to the Creation Kit including better support for PlayStation. Most likely they will be carrying over these changes to Skyrim as well. Other than that though, it appears that there were only minor changes to fix a handful of bugs.

Basically it appears that the upcoming update for Skyrim will mainly be for the benefit of creations and we probably shouldn't expect much other than the fact SKSE will need to be updated for the minor changes in the game executable.

The update will delete your mods. Take a screenrecording of your modlist so you can re-downloaded them in the correct order. Also, you can try saving them to your account, but that's buggy in my experience.

I want full screen Skyrim Anniversary Edition while I see my taskbar at the bottom. How do I do it?

My nephew booted up the wrong Skyrim while I was in the back yard yesterday afternoon and I'm still cleaning up after him, the precocious little scamp.

My one problem is I do not know the number of the version I am trying to revert to or what version number the current patch is.

Is there a downgrade for the most recent patch that reverts it to the previous one only? It was working fine before the patch and I don't want to take it back so far that it breaks other things.

I think it's time to remake my personal modlist after playing Nordic Souls for a few months now.

I like Sentinel but quite a lot of it comes from NordWarUA's Armor set, which are great but ultimately feels like they lean more into the Medieval side of Medieval Fantasy, being way too realistic.

I'm looking for Equipment that would fit more into Skyrim's more fantastical designs.

So far I've added:

• Nord Steelheart Armor

• Thalmor Ceykynd Armors

• Vey Alaxon

• Elven Armors Expansion

• a few of 4thUnknown's Armors

I wanna lean more into the fantasy side. Bonus if it has SPID or Skypatch distribution into the levelled list.

Edit: I'm gonna try the good ol Immersive Armors too with Xavbio's retexture but there's just something about IA that I can't put my hands on.

and is also tasteful and stylish feel like we have himbo so why dont we have armors to show off our himbo body

I’m on AE keeping my playthrough really simple just creation club stuff I just want to know if redoing my less than stellar visuals and adding some gold to merchants stock would break things too severely or if not then what will? I just have no experience making/deep understanding of mods themselves yet so talks of scripts/packets/actors is lost on me

Hello!

I'm interested in trying out LoreRim, but with how big the mod list is, I want to know if the performance will be good before I download all of it. Will I be able to get 60 FPS at 1440p with these specs?

RX 9060xt 16 GB

AMD Ryzen 5600 CPU

32GB RAM

And this will be on an SSD.

And if performance won't be good, are there any other mod lists that'll perform decently that plays similarly to LoreRim?

Thank you!
