Guest Slinky Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) I have zero experience with steam workshop personally, but while running amok in the jungle of mods I mostly saw people accusing it with everything from having stone age old versions of mods to coming to their home, shaving their dog and painting it red. So I just decided to settle with skyrim nexus and their mod manager. Edited July 13, 2013 by Slinky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsingham Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 It couldn't be easier, IMO. I browse the workshop, I like a mod, I pres _one button_ and shazam! Next time I'm in game, the mod is active. I try and don't like, press _one button_ and bahoogle! It's gone. I'm trademarking bahoogle, BTW. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete.

Keyrock Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I find both the Steam workshop and the Nexus Mod Manager to be wonderful systems for making installing and removing mods as painless as possible.

PK htiw klaw eriF Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I actually prefer to use mods without any sort of manager.

BruceVC Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 The Nexus website offers a much wider range of Mods that are generally supported by a more skilled group of people with some impressive coding skills Also you can't get Adult mods on Steam @ Deathdealer I would also recommend the Monster Mod, it adds hundreds of new beasts to the game. I'll be using that Mod definitely when I play Skyrim http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/35631/?

Guest Slinky Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I did think about using that, or one other monster mod which name I can't remember, but decided to not use them because I'm afraid the landscape turns into sea of monsters where I cant get a second of peace. One of the reasons why I really like Fallout: New Vegas is how you can wander around and enjoy the world without having some raider shooting you in the face or getting your legs eaten by some mutant all the time. I hope Skyrim like that, or at least closer to that than what it was in Fallout 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsingham Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 It's much easier to sidle past trouble in Skyrim. Things don't tend to spawn right next to you. Plus they behave in roughly sensible ways. Many bad guys will leave you alone if you don't hassle them. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe.

Guest Slinky Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Those are pretty rare things to encounter, and even when you do you see them a mile away so its easy to just go around. And if you dont want to go around, they are laughtably easy to kill. Or should be, seeing the whining on net I started to wonder am I the only one who figured out it's best to shoot their wings.

Agiel Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Bit of a long shot, but here goes: As of right now that the Lever Action Shotgun in New Vegas has a sawn-off stock is really starting to bug the hell out of me. I have very little knowledge of 3D modeling, but I don't suppose anyone can do a quick edit of the model so that has a proper rifle stock? I used to be scared of cazadors. Then I bought a .50 cal and the Gun Runners arsenal exploding rounds. I now exact terrifying long range vengeance on the mother****ers. Seriously. You have to try this. Yup. In the stock game I'd rather take my chances with a pride/school/herd of Deathclaws than a Cazador. But with the AMR with explosive rounds what you have is an 8,8 Flugabwehrkanone 41 and you suddenly feel a lot safer confronting them. Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorth Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I used to be intimidated by Deathclaws. Then I went back to the Quarry much later, all geared up and went on a killing spree. It was good therapy. Then I got over confident and crawled up on top of some engineering machinery in the middle to properly cow the lizardly fiends into submission with my sheer alpha-maleness... and fell off the building (killed by the fall). Not any particular morale (hubris - nemesis?) but just an amusing experience none the less. 3 “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

HoonDing Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 The only creature in Failout 3 that really annoyed me was the giant radscorpion, who were everywhere in the western part of the map, moved very silently and always came in pairs. In New Vegas, those geckos were everywhere. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManifestedISO Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 New word: underailment. Means two things, one, you're feeling sick, or two, the act of returning a thread to its OP. I have not played Dishonored, but I have played the balls out of Skyrim, and there is a new nexus mod that gives your Skyrim character the powers from Dishonored, including teleportation and slowing time. And the army of rats thing, too. Can be done by quest or console command. Now I kinda regret not buying DH for $10 on Steam ... All Stop. On Screen.

IndiraLightfoot Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I've had a lot of fun playing Skyrim as of late. I picked up the expansions over the summer super-cheap, and now I cram it with all sorts of mods, one of which is the Dishonored mod, so thanks for the tips, folks! It's fun to restrain oneself using those powers and roam around and sneak. I also downloaded the huge mod Falskaar. And I do recommend the mod which shows which books you have read or not (it works for all expansions). I took a random start too. Much more fun that way. Playing Skyrim with a toone of mods of my choice certainly makes Skyrim a more pleasant experience, and this time around I decided to try out crafting, which I normally don't use in games, and it's tolerable, at least for my gimped Corvo version of a pc. 1 *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" *** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilloutman Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I bought some ultimate edition few weeks ago and now thinking about replaying Skyrim again with all those DLCs and stuff. I gone wild on Nexus and get quite good mods I found interesting. Now when I slay my first dragon I dont absorb his soul and game stuck . Isnt there some mod similiar to OOO for Oblivion? I dont want to test 10+ mods togather to discover in middle of game that its broken. I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is?

There is Requiem but it changes a bit too much for my liking. Also remember, you can't uninstall mods from your save games in Skyrim like you could in earlier games if the mod has scripts. If you uninstall a mod with scripts and continue playing using the save that had the mod, you will very likely run into trouble sooner or later.
