Dude this guy man.,,....just started watching him yesterday, he says tings so precise I'm sure his voice could make amazing ringtones. In fact....i shall make one.
Im subbed to about 5 different skyrim mod reviewers and I just found yours. Love how you let us know how mods react to each other. As good as the others are Ive not seen anyone else do that! I had been trying mods to improve cities with open cities installed and with you saying about the conflict I know know what went wrong. Thanks keep up the great work!
Just got on to RCRN and it really hit the spot for me. I wanted to see if you did a video on it and here it is! I love it more then Climates of Tamriel and RLO. Fixed and did everything I wanted it to do from the start! :) HOORAY! And the new versions just now you can choose darker dungeons and nights etc now. So its a lot better! Make sure you get the shadow stripping fix afterwards!
The problem with the majority of Whiterun beautification mods is that they add a ton of trees and flowers to Whiterun. Looks great, true, but it destroys immersion. Whiterun is a plains-area. Trees are little more than shrubs at best in these areas. There is a mod or two out there that use the local flora to beautify towns which help in immersion.
Ever seen what people do to the plant life in their garden? That's right - they put in whatever the hell they feel like with no regard to what would grow there naturally. I know people with Cacti in their gardens and I'm in the UK. It's to be expected that people would plant things to make their living space look more appealing.
Vernie Sorry, I wrote my comment very early in the morning and I was in a bad mood. I should have known that you expected that, indeed. ;) Have a nice day.
Wow! Thanks for the mentioning and the praising of my channel at the end! I'm really happy about that :)! And yes! I do about 5 mod videos a week. Sometimes one more, sometimes one less. Currently cutting one. Keep on making your great videos and thanks again!
Actually oddly enough in game I am less obsessed with that, but the second I start making video footage I am :) But a lot of it is down to us just having released 2 visual mods, and a freind releasing a third. It has had me focusing on look & feel more than I should I guess. Hopefully I am going to get back to actually playing the game and trying to single handedly depopulate the Skyrim landmass.
Where is this menu and can you please make a video showing us? Because if you mean the display settings menu then you just did not understand the Imaginator in the slightest.
Because I hate 'mini games' and 10 lockpicks at 2 seconds a pick is approximately five centuries longer than I want to spend picking the lock :) Personally I think a simpler system would be it just decides if you were successful when you click on the lock and pick 'pick this lock'. Success = open lock, fail = broken pick.
I am the mod maker of Winter is Coming, actually I take inspiration from the series none of the cloaks are actually from the show at the moment. So people looking for Game of Throne mods will not find actual stuff from the show right now.
Sorry about that, I actually completely forgot. What is worse is I think Winter is Coming needs at least some explanation as it comes with 2 files and you only need one. I may do a quick update. Thanks for reminding me :)
That lockpick graduation mod is just amazing. I'm doing a new playthrough and now downloading the mods, and for some time now i thought about how annoying it is you can't mark where you broke your pick etc..
I noticed in the recipes that the bear skin cloaks need 10 bear claws, and that sounds reasonable, as there are 10 claws on the cloak. However, if you've ever looked at the claws in the inventory menu you'll have seen that you actually get 4-5 claws off one carcass, which means you should need only 2-3 of those (2*5=10) (3*4=12).
So, you recommend using RCRN and Imaginator together... Interesting. The lighting in your game looks amazingly realistic unlike many ENB/Other lighting mods. I really hope you're a fan of keeping Skyrim the way it's supposed to be, like... Well, Skyrim! I'll try it out right now!
By the way, since you mentioned you like your dungeons to feel creepy, you may want to take a look at the "Sounds of Skyrim - The Dungeons" mod, and maybe others by the same person, because it makes the game sound a lot better (or in the dungeons creepier) and that helps a lot to go with improving how much better or creepier something looks, to combine into a perfect feeling.
10:58 You might want to check out this mod called "Sabre Cat Gear Mod Pack." It adds some really nice armors and Sabre Cat head hoods. Also adds a new sword and shield.
Iv'e tried out most of the well known "realistic lighting" mods, and I too found Realistic Lighting a little too dark. I tried RCRN, but i couldn't get used to the fact that it wasn't truly daylight out until around 9:30 - 10:00 in the morning (I was using FXAA Post Process Injector at the time). I found one that you might really enjoy - A Realistic Hope ENB. It is my favorite to date.
There is a really nice alternative to this mod on the steam workshop called "Detailed Whiterun v1.04" It adds a bit more colour to whiterun aswell so it is an accquired taste but id recommend it!
Well, actually it is because the construction contractors have to deforest, dig up and uproot all the grass in development plots to begin their work. When they are done, they lay down new soil with pre-grown grass and then plant new baby trees to replace the ones they sold for lumbre.
It is not about how easy or hard it is. I just don't enjoy mini-games like this. I don't mind how 'hard' it is, I just don't enjoy it. I didn't enjoy it the first time I did it, I didn't enjoy it the 5000th time. Anything that gets it out of the way faster, is ok for me :)
Yeah, I hear you on that, it definately does not stick to the developers vision. But I just get so very bored of the place after spending any time in any other city (except Winterhelm which just makes me want to jump off that cliff).
What is your opinion on RCRN vs Realistic Lighting? Realistic Lighting looks amazing in dungeons and really creates a purpose for torches as well as creating really cool shadow situations, but I feel like it's a bit weak outside, and that's where RCRN seems to be strong.
FYI Gopher there's a HUGE update coming for Realistic Lighting With Customization. You may wanna take another look at it when it releases around the 30th (I think that's the date).
The cloaks of skyrim and wintes is coming mods both look amazing, but they also look a bit like they are glued to your back and feet. It's slightly less noticible on the cloaks of skyrim mod, which is why im sticking with that. It's not the modders fault though, im guessing the game can't allow fabrics to bahave like they should. It would be cool if something like Apex was enabled.
Actually Dangerous, Gearbox did intiially allow the capability to transfer PC created weapons and other objects for Borderlands until MicroSoft started crying about balancing issues due to multi-player co-op balancing issues and other shenanigans. That's usually the biggest reasons modded content is disallowed on console because of the misuse and abuse of some players.
Gopher I love your vids, and I want to congrats you about your work. Now, I want to ask for you, if possible, to create a video about a very realistic and deep immersive mods: Frostfall (id=11163) and Imps More Complex Needs (id=10639). Tks and good work so far!
not could be, definitely is a a reference to Game of thrones, im assuming the guy who made the video doesnt watch Game of thrones or im sure he would have mentioned that it was created as an homage to the show, cool mod though! the Stark Cloaks are bad ass!
Hey Gopher, I have a suggestion fr ur imaginator mod. Why dont u add a undo function..it might cum in handy if u want to stack the effects to find d perfect one.. :)
"alot"? "A lot" looks a lot better. If you'd glance down at your keyboard you'd notice the close proximity of the "D" and "T" keys. Maybe then you'd realize how easy it might be to press one instead of the other.
Not sure about the mod for lockpicking. I mean, lockpicking is really easy in Skyrim, without investing in any lockpicking perks (which is a waste), you can easily lockpick a master lock with less than 10 lockpicks. And master locks are rare. So why making it even easier ? And you can already remember where your lockpick was, given how the appearance of the lock is. The frame of it has already marks, and I use that to more or less remember where it was.
Hello! I just wondered, is it possible to make an ingame menu for the imaginator and Dynavision? I just find the helpers to be a little bit too slow, and the game goes on while you talk to them so you might be too late to change the settings for just the right moment. And also when I saw the fur Cloaks I remembered an awesome mod which is called Fur hoods, and it adds hoods to the game, it fits hunters perfectly and got some interesting recipes! Sorry if my grammar are bad i'm not English :)
Please Gopher, or anyone in chat. I can't seem to get imaginator to actually change any in game setting no matter what i do. the MCM menu shows up no prob, all the settings are there i can change everything. except nothing changes :S why? I even went into all my folders and made them NOT read only. I have over 140 mods installed on mod organizer i've been a huge fan for years but i wanted to get 1 last play-through for nostalgia purposes and in doing so i'm trying all sorts of different mods including this.
got it working, it actually doesn't work if you have 1 of the settings unchecked on the ENB shell settings. enb enabled= no imaginator. Also after my playthrough with imaginator i can say that its visual tweaks are incredible but should only be used as a replacement for ENB's if your having fps problems, especially with a mod heavy game. no fps loss with imaginator and over hundreds of mods. however in skyrim if you looked at the sun then down to eyelevel it would be really bright and vice versa. skyrim has some sort of dynamic lighting enabled that u can't completely turn off. there was a fix i had to get for this so that my imaginator didn't completely mess up my shit.
This Beautiful Whiterun mod, How does it effect whiterun after the attack etc? and also, does it work with Whiterun Rebuilt mod ( or what its called )? Am not sure if someone else asked this so.
Hey, i don't know if you'll get this, but i have problem with the IMAGINATOR mod: when i summon the helper, he won't speak to me, and soon after i summon him just disappear. how can i fix this?
The Imaginator and dynavision both would appear for a few seconds, not talk to me, and then disappear, after uninstalling all my other mods, so I only have the Imaginator, now nothing happens when I use the spell. Any ideas?
If i summon the Imaginator he just appears and do not talk to me. And after ca.5 seconds he jsut fade away :S It's the same with the Warzone helper. The Dynavision helper works fine though. Maby you know a solution ? thanks
can u give me link because it dose not work for i talk ing about imaginator and also the newer version when it turn to foucs when i look around it take about ten sec to were of
did you know theres a video option in the game that lets you modify all the same stuff as your imiganotor, with just a little work at least, so you made a mod that uses a menu, that you can already access, seems like a waste of time myself
Dude this guy man.,,....just started watching him yesterday, he says tings so precise I'm sure his voice could make amazing ringtones. In fact....i shall make one.
Been modding skyrim for a long time but still learn something new watching your vids. Great work!
Im subbed to about 5 different skyrim mod reviewers and I just found yours. Love how you let us know how mods react to each other. As good as the others are Ive not seen anyone else do that! I had been trying mods to improve cities with open cities installed and with you saying about the conflict I know know what went wrong. Thanks keep up the great work!
All your characters look brilliant. This one is frightening. This mod seems fantastic, I love what you can do. Great review I enjoyed it.
Just got on to RCRN and it really hit the spot for me. I wanted to see if you did a video on it and here it is! I love it more then Climates of Tamriel and RLO. Fixed and did everything I wanted it to do from the start! :) HOORAY! And the new versions just now you can choose darker dungeons and nights etc now. So its a lot better!

i subscribe because of the mods... and the voice of this guy, sounds like a voice from a radio program...
This guy loves the word "indeed".
Vernie And this is a problem?
Vernie And this is a problem?
westsidekidd73 Actually I was more expecting someone to reply"indeed" xD. And no it isn't.
Vernie
Sorry, I wrote my comment very early in the morning and I was in a bad mood. I should have known that you expected that, indeed. ;) Have a nice day.
+Vernie I agree with your comment,indeed
Excellent Video as usually! Thanks for your passion and dedication, so as the time you invest making them!
When I heard Gopher's voice on the mod page, I was like FUCK YEAH! I love your work and you are great at explaining things and your voice is nice :)
Wow! Thanks for the mentioning and the praising of my channel at the end! I'm really happy about that :)! And yes! I do about 5 mod videos a week. Sometimes one more, sometimes one less. Currently cutting one. Keep on making your great videos and thanks again!
Actually oddly enough in game I am less obsessed with that, but the second I start making video footage I am :) But a lot of it is down to us just having released 2 visual mods, and a freind releasing a third. It has had me focusing on look & feel more than I should I guess. Hopefully I am going to get back to actually playing the game and trying to single handedly depopulate the Skyrim landmass.
Oh sorry I thought so cause they seemed so alike but its a really fantastic mod keep up the great work!
Where is this menu and can you please make a video showing us? Because if you mean the display settings menu then you just did not understand the Imaginator in the slightest.
Thanks a lot Gopher your the bomb. And I have to say your weapon mod menu was a revolutionary mod that I wish was released a long time ago.
The RCRN has some nice things about it. But, the sky's are blown out.
Because I hate 'mini games' and 10 lockpicks at 2 seconds a pick is approximately five centuries longer than I want to spend picking the lock :) Personally I think a simpler system would be it just decides if you were successful when you click on the lock and pick 'pick this lock'. Success = open lock, fail = broken pick.
I am the mod maker of Winter is Coming, actually I take inspiration from the series none of the cloaks are actually from the show at the moment. So people looking for Game of Throne mods will not find actual stuff from the show right now.
its 1:00 in the morning in germany and im watching Gosper ! start your day right :D
Awesome series! One 'uber' mod I would like to see is a Game of Thrones world space.
Sorry about that, I actually completely forgot. What is worse is I think Winter is Coming needs at least some explanation as it comes with 2 files and you only need one. I may do a quick update. Thanks for reminding me :)
That lockpick graduation mod is just amazing. I'm doing a new playthrough and now downloading the mods, and for some time now i thought about how annoying it is you can't mark where you broke your pick etc..

Great video as always! Imaginator looks great!

Open Cities didn't work for me so the Whiterun mod looks good. Once again Gopher, nice video.
You should update this so you can do all this in the mod menu
By the way, since you mentioned you like your dungeons to feel creepy, you may want to take a look at the "Sounds of Skyrim - The Dungeons" mod, and maybe others by the same person, because it makes the game sound a lot better (or in the dungeons creepier) and that helps a lot to go with improving how much better or creepier something looks, to combine into a perfect feeling.
No. Whiterun is in the center of Skyrim. You may be reffering to Winterhold or Windhelm.
10:58 You might want to check out this mod called "Sabre Cat Gear Mod Pack." It adds some really nice armors and Sabre Cat head hoods. Also adds a new sword and shield.
Iv'e tried out most of the well known "realistic lighting" mods, and I too found Realistic Lighting a little too dark.

There is a really nice alternative to this mod on the steam workshop called "Detailed Whiterun v1.04"
It adds a bit more colour to whiterun aswell so it is an accquired taste but id recommend it!
"They're huge, They're large, and they do look great."
It was removed at the request of one of the mod authors. I will poke the guys and see about getting it put back :)
Well, actually it is because the construction contractors have to deforest, dig up and uproot all the grass in development plots to begin their work. When they are done, they lay down new soil with pre-grown grass and then plant new baby trees to replace the ones they sold for lumbre.

I definately will.
Gopher you my friend are obssesed with lighting mods.
solution: before u summon the imaginator, quicksave.
if he does not talk to you, quickload and repeat
works every time.
What is your opinion on RCRN vs Realistic Lighting? Realistic Lighting looks amazing in dungeons and really creates a purpose for torches as well as creating really cool shadow situations, but I feel like it's a bit weak outside, and that's where RCRN seems to be strong.
Just found it, the first armor shown in the video was "Masters of Death - Rise of the Brotherhood".
He looks just like my number 1 character, Salamon Tarcinaq! Or maybe it is him :o
@gosphersvids The "winter is coming" mod takes both the cloaks and the saying 'winter is coming' from the tv series 'A Game of Thrones'.
I didn't notice the sky brightness change at all, is that the video, my opinion, or it really didn't change? 4:07
I get that when using Dxtory to take video footage. Actually I get that on all injector mods if I use that program so it is not unique to that mod.
FYI Gopher there's a HUGE update coming for Realistic Lighting With Customization. You may wanna take another look at it when it releases around the 30th (I think that's the date).
The cloaks of skyrim and wintes is coming mods both look amazing, but they also look a bit like they are glued to your back and feet. It's slightly less noticible on the cloaks of skyrim mod, which is why im sticking with that. It's not the modders fault though, im guessing the game can't allow fabrics to bahave like they should. It would be cool if something like Apex was enabled.
Each option already has a reset feature, and there is even an option to reset all of the changes you make.
Love heimskr screaming in the back.
For me I expect alot in my HD mods....I like them to look like the videos from WC3 at least. But I do Love this mod sanctuary series.
with the winter is coming cloaks you can now make a macklemore character
With the fxaa injcetor mod you can adjust the games color appearance with the saturation and sepia options.
2:36 Nooo! You cut off the most famous gaming phrase ever! A million arrows to the knee for you, sir!

Your're welcome :)
Hey Gopher, I have a suggestion fr ur imaginator mod. Why dont u add a undo function..it might cum in handy if u want to stack the effects to find d perfect one.. :)
Does the darkness in RCRN affect sneaking and stealth? Will you be able to stay out of enemy sight more easily when wandering around at night?
"alot"? "A lot" looks a lot better. If you'd glance down at your keyboard you'd notice the close proximity of the "D" and "T" keys. Maybe then you'd realize how easy it might be to press one instead of the other.
There is a mod that adds an MCM menu for it. It's called: IMAGINATOR - MCMenu.
if u want a less drastic mod that adds trees to whiterun look up "pines of whiterun" mod on the nexus. my personal fav
The winter is coming mod is based upon the "Game of Thrones" novels and series.
Beautiful Whiterun is ok, but I love the Sexy city series. Have you checked them out?
Not sure about the mod for lockpicking. I mean, lockpicking is really easy in Skyrim, without investing in any lockpicking perks (which is a waste), you can easily lockpick a master lock with less than 10 lockpicks. And master locks are rare. So why making it even easier ? And you can already remember where your lockpick was, given how the appearance of the lock is. The frame of it has already marks, and I use that to more or less remember where it was.
nice review as always :D u should check out also gardens of whiterun insomnium .amazing mod ^_^
Gopher, would you mind sharing your fav presets/settings in Imaginator for use with RCRN Pure? :)
Danke für deine Videos ;)
Hey Gopher you should review the Black Sacrament Armor. I think you would like it.
nice stuff, as always mr.gopher. :D
Something I really wanted to know, is there some house mods were two modded houses like stack together and glitch ??
@GophersVids winter is coming mod (cloaks) is from game of thrones sorry i know you made the video in march and you probably know already :)
Am I the only one who noticed that "The Winter is Coming" could be a reference to the Stark House in Game of Thrones?
Hello! I just wondered, is it possible to make an ingame menu for the imaginator and Dynavision? I just find the helpers to be a little bit too slow, and the game goes on while you talk to them so you might be too late to change the settings for just the right moment.

Sorry if my grammar are bad i'm not English :)
Can you list down all the plugins that you have installed? Your game looks STUNNING!
Is there any severe clipping when wearing the Winter is Coming cloaks with Einherjar armor?
Bloom, ahaha. lookin at the gildergreen
When I use it with Cloaks of Skyrim patch for Winter is coming the guards don't have cloaks.
Please Gopher, or anyone in chat.
I can't seem to get imaginator to actually change any in game setting no matter what i do.
the MCM menu shows up no prob, all the settings are there i can change everything. except nothing changes :S why?
I even went into all my folders and made them NOT read only.
I have over 140 mods installed on mod organizer i've been a huge fan for years but i wanted to get 1 last play-through for nostalgia purposes and in doing so i'm trying all sorts of different mods including this.
HI
got it working, it actually doesn't work if you have 1 of the settings unchecked on the ENB shell settings.
enb enabled= no imaginator.
Also after my playthrough with imaginator i can say that its visual tweaks are incredible but should only be used as a replacement for ENB's if your having fps problems, especially with a mod heavy game.
no fps loss with imaginator and over hundreds of mods.
however in skyrim if you looked at the sun then down to eyelevel it would be really bright and vice versa. skyrim has some sort of dynamic lighting enabled that u can't completely turn off. there was a fix i had to get for this so that my imaginator didn't completely mess up my shit.
zosimostwo Yeah I figured that out sorry I figured you'd of figured out by now and i was right
My Beautiful Whiterun is not compatible with the Skyrim Flora Overhaul. Any information about why this is.
This Beautiful Whiterun mod, How does it effect whiterun after the attack etc?
and also, does it work with Whiterun Rebuilt mod ( or what its called )?
Am not sure if someone else asked this so.
I like your voice a lot!
Hey, i don't know if you'll get this, but i have problem with the IMAGINATOR mod: when i summon the helper, he won't speak to me, and soon after i summon him just disappear. how can i fix this?
Thank you very much :)
Hey gopher, are you ganna add the imageinator to the mcm menu mod?
when I use this it snows inside. also soul cairn was bright and sunny
The Imaginator and dynavision both would appear for a few seconds, not talk to me, and then disappear, after uninstalling all my other mods, so I only have the Imaginator, now nothing happens when I use the spell. Any ideas?
Hey Gopher have you checked out ENB Skyrim bathed by the sun of Brazil - Realistic Lighting.
When we use imaginator and climates of tamrial I get this strange purple sun glare on snow and fog. Any ideas?
I hope it goes up to MCM! Imaginater MCM style! :D
is the big tree in whiterun part of the flora mod?
Brillaint
how do i uninstall the RCRN v3.6? its good but make loading screens long and makes it hard to see at night
i believe thats the point
If i summon the Imaginator he just appears and do not talk to me. And after ca.5 seconds he jsut fade away :S
It's the same with the Warzone helper. The Dynavision helper works fine though.
Maby you know a solution ?
thanks
I have a question for you Gooher. Why on Earth did you not murder yet the very loud Talos Worshiper in Whiterun in this save that you have?
can u give me link because it dose not work for i talk ing about imaginator and also the newer version when it turn to foucs when i look around it take about ten sec to were of
can someone please answer my question : does the '' beautiful whiterun '' mod has an impact on your fps in game?
did you know theres a video option in the game that lets you modify all the same stuff as your imiganotor, with just a little work at least, so you made a mod that uses a menu, that you can already access, seems like a waste of time myself
