Yes, I'm going to have to make some decisions about which scripted mods I want to keep and which need to go. I don't want to start over again just yet so I'm going to have to endure it so I don't mess up my saves by removing them now. Oh for the days of Oblivion where you could install and uninstall any kind of mods as you liked without too much hassle. :-(

I find it strange that when watching Gopher's videos he has more than twice the number of MCM mods that I do and his game plays really well o_O My cousin was talking about increasing my pc's memory and set it up to "inteleave"????? He believes it would make scripted mods much more efficient. I am totally bemused by the concept I admit :D

I don't know anything about interleaving but Skyrim is different to most games in that it's CPU dependent so it does most of the work before it offloads to the graphics card. Increasing RAM won't help as Skyrim only uses 3.1GB before it chokes. That's the ancient 32 bit DirectX 9.0 Gamebryo engine that was tweaked to become the Creation engine and that they tried to have us believe was entirely new. The Papyrus scripting system is also extremely slow and inefficient which is most of the problem.
It doesn't even work properly on the consoles. That's not just my opinion it's well known modders who say that. The Official forums have long running topics about the memory limit and Papyrus problems if you want to show your cousin what we're up against...lol.

I don't know what your system specs are but I know Gopher's PC is light years ahead of mine and he still gets stutters...lol.

With my current game installation I am running at between 61 and 64 fps wherever I go in game. Is that good? I certainly think that it is ^_^

Ailsa,
In case you haven't seen it there's a new version of Inigo (on his own page) that gives him full compatibility with UFO and other Multi-Follower mods.

During my continuing fight with cellulitis I got very bored and fed up so I rebuilt my Skyrim again ;-((

I decided to create myself a sweet, dark and sultry Breton healer to run around Skyrim with Inigo as her follower :D Travinia below is a Breton but otherwise she is nothing like the character (and back story) I had in my head :lol: :twisted:

and a peaceful evening shot :D

Dark and sultry is correct, she looks great...but at the same time she has a look in her eyes ''I will incinerate you where stand if you do more then look." :)

^_^ Thank you ^_^

I am using a tool called Bandicam for taking my shots now - I really like it and it saves the shots in jpg format :D So at last it is easy to use my favourite shots as wallpapers :D Bandicam also videos your game in a very memory efficient way I believe, and in a format that is ready for YouTube.

After the long battle through Labrynthian Zarte was exhausted and looking forwards to a well earned rest when she got back to Winterhold. As she started towards the exit she was surprised by the beauty and tranquillity of the scene before her :)

Dempcey posted on Canadian Ice.

Qarl (Steven Abrahams) who created many wonderful mods for Morrowind, and then Oblivion died in June after a sudden liver disease. It was one of his mods that first attracted me to adding mods to my games, and he was very sweet and kind when helping me with my early questions, and never got impatient with my lack of computer knowledge. I will miss him, his humour and kindness greatly.
