Tytanis is not dead.

Hey what do you know! Back from the dead I guess..

Man, I'm always starting new games, it's pretty annoying. I always end up with a game that crashes every two minutes by the time I get to level 15 or so(also using uncapper to slow my leveling). Seems even if I turn off all my mods I still get crashing once it starts. Don't seem to remember having this many compatibility issues in Oblivion...

Do you use autosave or quicksave a lot? TES gamesaves have a history of corrupting themselves.

I get the occasional crash, but I don't think it's mod-related; it's usually after the game fucks up loading a cell and things get half-loaded.

Yeah, I pretty much hit F5 about every 30 seconds. You don't auto or quicksave ever? If this clears up my problem I will freak out.

Honestly, I don't know if it's an issue in Skyrim or not, but it definitely was in Morrowind and Oblivion (Daggerfall saves are pretty fragile too). Instead I use the console to save.

The worst case I've ever had was in Oblivion where I had a save break permanently after around seven hours total. The game died at midnight on a specific night, every time, whether I rested or just passed the time. It was pretty surreal.

Well, we'll see how long my new char can make it on console saves only. Guess I can't be so save happy anymore   :(

I'd say just start a new game regardless, just to make sure you experience the mod in it's fullest, and so the mod doesn't only partially function due to starting late in the game. And I'd also imagine CTDs will be more common with mods installed part way into the game.

Well the thing is I have a warrior class that hasn't beaten the game yet, but has full daedric heavily enchanted armor and I want to use it. However I also want to complete a ton of other quests I have, and don't want to lose my save.

Okay, my game has developed an issue that's driving me mad, so I need to ask this... Has anyone had issues when equipping a torch? Specifically, have you had your controls lock up, and the only directions you can move the camera are up and down?

I have no idea what's causing this and I've tried disabling some mods I thought could be the cause, but no luck yet. It also makes my character stand up on his saddle like a circus performer whenever I equip a torch. Hilarious, but... yeah, no thanks.

Is there a mod that gets rid of dragons?

actually... there probably is... i would not be surprised anyways considering how many smartasses there are in the modding community...

Heh. That's a good way to troll Bethesda.

But seriously, killing dragons gets a bit tedious once you killed enough.

Exactly. After 100 hours, I killed so many dragons. They were no longer neat or incredible. They just became tedious.

After a while, they just become really big cliff racers.

Now we need someone who is good at making the models so that we can replace all the dragons with cliffracers.

So, I just fought the Siege of Whiterun. With 100% Killcam. And recorded it.

I figured out why my torches were acting so oddly. Wars in Skyrim is a great mod, but hoo boy, is it one dirty file full of bugs and Italiano-speek. After some, shall we say... 'spring cleaning', I tossed out my bugged "Torcia"s and spawned some fresh, working Torches.

Now to figure out why I crash every time I get near Riften. -_-

When I did the civil war quests (for the Imperial Legion, naturally) I'd already done the main quest so every battle was basically "Strormcloaks, Odahviing. Odahviing, dinner." and laughing like a maniac as they got torn to pieces and burnt to crisps by my pet dragon.
