Open animation replacer works on conditions. Create the conditions for every animation you include and you can make exactly what you envision. I did it by adding keywords to different weapons so is using what weapon is equipped to determine what animation will play. However....with OAR you can set all kinds of conditions (not just a keyword on a weapon). So read up on Open animation replacer and build what you want. Nothing is impossible. :)

@@nicoroshi Thank you for steering me to OAR and the opportunity it can provide. Like most people I have watched many modding vids but my basic understanding is missing. I didn't know OAR would be able to do this. Now to find some tuts that can train a brick to be a OAR ninja :)

Great sword

@@nicoroshi even if I use B animation?

@@skyrole455 Depends on the model. Not the animation. My twinblades are basically a greatsword so scale with Great sword perks

Old video. My mod list is on load order library. You can play my list because it’s a wabbajack installer available on wabback app, site under non-featured list. Also available on the Nexus. The list is called ‘The Nico Experience’ The ENB is Rudy for obsidian weathers

I used hkano tools from skyrimguild that can convert SkySA to MCO to update Stormbringers animations to MCO format. Not sure if that is on moddingguild’s site or Distar’s new site now but maybe guess is google can lead you to it.

Yes. Open mod in CK and apply a keyword to the sword the in DAR folder for animations you want apply condition for that keyword.

lmao. no, This is a fully restored Hellcat that a friend who is an airplane mechanic had his buddy (who owns it) buzz the house when we were having a get together

@@nicoroshi dang that is a crazy friend

Rules 1,4,and 5 in full effect.

@@nicoroshi I have no idea what you are talking about mate.

true....back then. Look up a little mod called VRAMr on the nexus. I was able to get this game to play on less than 12GB of VRAM using it.

Yeah I was actually looking at that one this morning. How long did it take you to run the VRAMr program? Did it effect image quality very much?@@nicoroshi

@@jaggedgargoyle I run wide screen 1440p so 3440 x 1440 resolution. VRAMr quality makes diffuse 2048x2048 and normals 1024x1024. If I got close enough to something that the texture filled more than the screen width it would start to lose resolution but unless you're on a 4K screen you probably won't notice that in normal game play (2K IMHO is enough even at 1440p). If running 1080P it is certainly enough but if struggling with VRAM (10,8,or 6GB cards) run performance (1K diffuse and 512 normals). you probaly won't notice at 1080p but would at 1440p but you should not be trying to run 1440p or higher on a card with that amount of Vram anyway. I run MANY worldspace mods like chanterelle and wyrmstooth and the shire and VRAMr had to do all those textures in addition to Tamriel and my xLODGEN DynDOLOD for all those as well. Took be about 3hours to run both quality and performance outputs.

Awesome that's good to know, thanks for letting me know! Three hours isn't too bad. I don't have any worldspace mods added, but my install size is like 200gb. Sooo many texture mods lol. I was playing at 4K originally, but it was too much even for the 4090 with all these mods, so playing at 1440 now. 1440 with DLAA looks pretty much the same as 4k I've found anyways. Even at 1440 I'm using around 24gb of ram and all 24gb of the vram lol. I think I probably shouldn't have set the dyndolod setting so high though, that might be why it's taking so much extra. My biggest problem still seems to be cpu utilization though. Outside Whiterun I can dip down below 30 in some areas, and my GPU usage goes way down. JK's Whiterun Outskirts combined with Trees in Cities and Nature of the Wild Lands is a pretty intense combo. I might give VRAMr a try, I think it would probably help with stuttering. @@nicoroshi

Monetary is simple. Smiles are worth far more because they are earned :)

FSR 3 frame generation went open source not long ago but doesn't work on older DX11 games like Skyrim. This does. I did test the upscaling and the image quality was....well....bad but the frame generation is really good. Where I landed was running Puredark's upscaler for the better AA and to upscale (DLSS) without image degradation then throwing this frame generator on top of it. The output is crisp, clear 3440x1440 at 120-144FPS in a heavily modded Skyrim. Yep...I am smiling. :)

This is from 2months ago. Links have been updated since then. Check the comments of the latest live stream for the latest working links.

My mod list as well as my tweaked version of Rudy’s ENB and my Reshade preset all all linked in the comments of my latest live stream.

@@nicoroshi Ty, beautiful result you got there!

You're not changing the keyword in Bash. You're adding the keyword using the Creation Kit. Use bash to tell you what the number is. then create a custom condition in DAR .

Here’s another option. You can use the CK to set the spawn chance for the Little Rock’s and twigs to 0. Now that we have complex parallax textures the small meshes sitting on top are really no longer needed.

CK meaning creation kit right? does this totally remove the rocks etc?@@nicoroshi

@@broskichannel4163 Yes, CK is creation Kit Yes, it keeps them from spawning so not really removing them but keeping them from ever being added :)

Good news and bad news….. The bad: I wiped my game and downloaded a fresh copy from Steam The Good news: I have learned MO2 and am about 675 mods into recreating this list which I will release as a Wabbajack installer when complete :)

Thank you.

break out the notepad LMAO main grass is Folkvangr with summer tundra retexture and Origins of Forest but grasses from Verdant in there and many of the plants from Cathedral (snowberries, Lavender, tundra cotton, and others). Thistle is from 3D trees and landscapes. Trees....(takes deep breath)... Traverse The Ulvenvald, Nature of the Wild Lands, CG4 Woodland, Alpine forest of whiterun valley, 3D trees (select parts...mostly fallen logs, stumps), Timber, Seasonal Aspen trees, the snowy pines are from Skyrim Flora Overhaul, and there is probably some I missed. Check the comments of my latest live stream for plug in list.

@@nicoroshi hahaha thanks :D

in fact there is. This video was made before I found this. www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/54680 This should be installed and activated ONLY when generating LOD then removed before playing the game but should help with the maps edges. Normally weather isn't always Clear so edges can be natively obscured during normal game play by weather mods.

@@nicoroshi and luckly i just generated my mods 30 min before u replied :( anyways, tracked the mod will sure use it on my next playthrough.

Sounds like a nice rig! My load order is available in the comments section of my live streams as is a link to my tweaked version of Rudy’s ENB for Obsidian weathers and my Reshade settings. Other than that it’s about not doubling up effects between driver, game engine, and ENB along with optimizing windows and process priority and affinity. I can help and always available to answer questions in my live streams.

@@nicoroshi thanks, I have a decent 1100+ mod list backed up from the old pc ready lol. I am interested in learning how to find conflicts with SSEedit, fixing/moving stuff with CC, adding that animated Ivy to S3D stonewalls, correct Dyndolod settings for seasons and understanding grass cache, and finally I want to make patches for tree mods as I like a very heavy tree setup. When I get the GPU I will pay you for tutorial vids on this stuff. 👍😎

Open the plug in that adds the Rapier in the Creation Kit and add a new keyword to the model of the Rapier. Then follow this tutorial and set a custom condition in the MCO moveset you want the rapier to use that references that Keyword. Place higher number in DAR or higher priority in OAR. So this way all swords will use the default animation but ONLY swords with the keyword will use the MCO animation for Rapiers.

and a conjuration effect so it doesn't look like the dragon came out of nowhere

There are many things that can influence performance. First step is to optimize ALL settings. Starting with Windows. Go to Blackviper.com and remove unneeded background programs Then nVidia driver turn off every effect that will be handled by game or ENB and run all in high performance ultra low latency. Also run vSync at driver level and turn off in game settings Game settings I suggest Bethini but do NOT double up any effects. Example: running TAA in game settings turn off AA in Driver and ENB. ENB settings This is where the bulk of things like AA, AO, reflections, shadows should occur. Now play and monitor things like vram, cpu usage, GPU usage. And draw calls Find what the bottle neck is. Example if looking a certain direction frame rate drops and GPU usage also drops that means something isn’t getting information to the GPU fast enough. Check draw calls in ENB. If over 10,000 that’s the issue. Reduce clutter mods If cpu is at 22% or higher on a 10 core cpu that is the issue. Tweak xml files for things like HDT-SMP. Skyrim is single threaded process so being at 20% with 10 cores means two of those cores are at 100% usage from Skyrim. Reduce cpu load. If vram goes over the amount your card has available then your vram is the bottleneck. Reduce things like 4K textures to 1 or 2k textures In the end you can have the best hardware on the market but if you don’t optimize settings (don’t double up!) and diagnose where the actual bottleneck is you won’t have a smooth running game. Hope this helps

@@nicoroshi it helps massively. Thank you. Ill get right into double checking all of these things. Oh except the texture qualities. I dont have anything over 2k anyway.

Surely there is nothing wrong with your list, it is precisely the Skyrim graphics engine that is limited, particularly in open environments you can easily keep the graphics even at 4k with 12GB of VRAM and ENB active, but in (closed) cities like Whiterun or Riften, entering and exiting shops or inns the VRAM will become saturated and the fps will collapse or the game will stutter, leaving the city the game will flush the VRAM and everything will return to normal, in particular Skyrim uses the old DirectX 11 which have the limit of calls to the GPU for rendering (drawcalls), you can also have a 4090 but if you exceed the drawcalls limit the fps drops

Ciri. Also using PC head tracking for Ciri too. The DBVO handles conversations. PC head tracking handles random talking like in the video.

There are no dumb questions except for the one you never ask :). TexGen is producing high quality LOD textures of trees and plants for DynDOLOD to use when making the LOD for each grid. They are saved to DynDOLOD/ texgen_output so are not even anywhere near the game files UNTIL you successfully run it, Say “zip and exit”, and then install the output like a mod using a mod manager. Short answer is “No”. If the program doesn’t complete and you don’t install the output then nothing gets added or changed in the game files.

@@nicoroshi Thanks I am going to subscribe

@@nicoroshi one more question everytime I try to run text gen I get errors because of some of my plugins. Is it possible for me to disable all plugins except for my grass and trees so I can just have Lod's on that.

@@theveteran5001 Personally I suggest fixing whats broken rather than trying to work around it. In my experience I have found DynDOLOD WILL FIND anything that could potentially be a game crashing bug. Listen to it. Read the guides on how to repair. Profit from a stable game with LOD on everything.

@@nicoroshi I wish tex gen would run all the way through and then tell me which plugins are messed up. Instead it's one by one. All this Dyndlod stuff looks cool but too much of a hassle to get running for me. I'm running a stable 2000+ mods without it right now. Going by one plugin one error at a time seems like it would take forever.
