It is amazing how much love you put in all the small details to create a worldspace for this wonderful couple.
And this is simply the best
Haha, especially my adding chocolate to our date night routine! We both laughed at the gif images, but Alex did have a question... she asked why in the first one the girl is trying to hide behind the fan she is holding?? As Alex pointed out, you can get to even more chocolate if you use both hands!
Well, it is Saturday, so I better get going - and I will say hello to Alex for you. Tonight we will retire to her quarters, but we will take a more interesting route to get there. Because we are currently NOT in Tamriel! But... that is a story for another day.
Hope you are having a great weekend, and as always - we thank you for who you are.
Healthy or not... good, bad, or otherwise... my game tweaks make things seem so much more fun and real!
(Of course I am talking about the chocolates! )
a fine set with a lot of positive emotions! i like that!
I run 55-59 FPS most of the time. I do sometimes get a cell change stutter, but only for a split second.
Haha, see the spoiler for more on that and a few other not so good things, but they are few. This may also be a bit geeky...
But my Whiterun area is way more active. Maybe 6 added houses, each with 6-10 girls living there. All of them traveling around between their home, Whiterun itself, inns... even other houses. Haha, that last thing is mainly for the really cute girls, so they can use the bigger pools at the other homes. But if I hang around by the cart driver outside Whiterun, there always seems to be somebody traveling around.
So who knows why that works fine, but Riverwood and Falkreath are so... problematic at times.
Sorry for long boring message, but I know you understand the work that goes into these things. One of my greatest pleasures, besides being with Alex, of course, is when I see somebody saying that you just can't run a fully loaded LE game.
One more thing I often wonder about regarding my occasional tiny cell change stutter... more like a subsecond freeze. First, DynDOLOD does have to handle everything related to LOD changes as you move around. And many other mods do too. But most of the time it is just fine. But I do still wonder if there is some kind of supercell issue beyond the ugrids (I run the default 5) needing to load different cells. Hard to describe what I mean, but it is almost like there is a different kind of boundry... not just the normal cell boundry. Almost like Skyrim is devided up into large groups of cells, and when you cross the boundry of one of those, there is more for the game and DynDOLOD to handle?? I have no evidence of that, except that if that type of supercell existed, it would explain what I see. That didn't even make sense to me, and I wrote it! But if I ever figure it out, I will certainly let you know.
But 99% of the time, my game runs great, so I just don't worry about it most of the time.
all 32bit bethesda games (fnv, f03 , le and oblivion) share this half a second cell stutter more or less with my setups, i'm happy this limitation is the past for fo4 and se while still not completely free of stutter. i guess my 6/12 core cpu works at its limits
also my 16gb vram is more than often fully saturated to the limits. 4k seems to be quite demanding - but it looks so nice...
I use a mix of 2k and 4k, but I think the higher resolution 4k textures are a waste for most things I see them for, especially if you are playing on a 1080p setup like I do. I mean... for images you might notice, but not for actual gameplay. I mean seriously, when I see 4k or even 8k textures for things like a grape... I just gotta roll my eyes! But maybe that is just me.
Thanks again! 16GB of VRAM is nice!
One thing about LE (not sure about SE), is that if you have an Intel CPU with multiple cores and hyper threading, it doesn't really do you any good for Skyrim, except maybe to keep other background tasks out of your way. In fact, one of the tweaks I have is to run Skyrim with affinity to only the primary CPU cores (0,2,4,6,etc), because it can only use 2 cores anyway - might as well make them the primary cores instead of the hyperthreading ones. And with more modern Intel CPUs that are out now, that have two kinds of cores in addition to hyperthreading... it might be even more complex to tune. Sorry I can't remember what they are called. It isn't fast and slow cores... but I think that might be the reality. Certainly more of both normal memory and VRAM is a huge plus. A lot of people focus on just the VRAM and it IS critical, but having more normal RAM allows for windows to cache more files so that they can be reloaded as needed from RAM instead of being read back in from SSD or worse... HDD. Upgrading from 16GB of RAM to 32GB made a very noticeable difference to my game.
16gb vram seems to me a new minimum standard for playing 4k resolution. since 2020 i run 64gb mem in my rig, not so fast - but still sufficient
By the way, sorry that I haven't been following your sets lately - time is always an issue. But I was going to start following your current one, but I hate spoilers... and I haven't done any of the Rigmor or Bruma mods yet. So if you think of it, tap me on the shoulder when you are about to start a new story - and because that sounded silly even to me... I will try to remember to keep an eye out for that.
Hehe, I'm just wondering how you manage to keep track of all the happenings in your amazing game!
Lovely set, my friend
Have a great week!
Yeah, I think your Hillat looks better than the original!
On Cassie's load screens ....
Hehe, I'm not surprised! That's Cassie for you in a nutshell, she will not be denied, she just takes over when she's in my game like no other of my characters!
I hope it was a good day !!
But I have cookies yet to eat,
And piles of chocolate foods to try,

really enjoyed!
very cool set and exceptional work on the portal
the only problem I had to use my imagination for the rest of your night 🤣🤣🤣🤣
As for the rest of our night...
...
One more thing I will say... By the way... this is Alex typing now!
Love the images!
(Please say "hi" to Alex for me)
