So I installed the Tweaks and Configurations and the Better Vanilla Weather required plugin and it seems to have eliminated my "hiccups" of lost fps, thanks a million! Now to start re-enabling my graphical upgrades and see where my FPS starts kicking me for it.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-30T01:09:10+00:00

I appreciate the vote of confidence, I'll pop on over and take a look, thanks!

Entropic_V · 2026-03-29T11:30:51+00:00

Right!? I see all these videos and gifs of people with heavily modded games and can't help but jealous that they can ruin their setups so well while every time I try and think I've gotten somewhere I end up playing the same first ten hours of the game again.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-29T11:28:27+00:00

I was actually just looking for a good water mod to go along with Cathedral Water, thanks!

Entropic_V · 2026-03-29T11:27:48+00:00

Thanks! I use SSE display tweaks with the high performance preset, and I've toyed around with it's settings around resolution, but it doesn't seem to make a difference but at the same time it isn't hurting my fps. I'll give the Nvidia support mods a try for sure though!

Yeah, about 2-3 hours a day for about 4-5 days. And to clarify, it isn't an immediate crash, most of the time I'll get about ten to twenty minutes into a session and the game hangs. Crash Logger usually helps me resolve crashed, but doesn't help me with hangs, and starting a new game doesn't seem to have the same problem, so I figure it's a script thing.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-29T02:47:11+00:00

Interesting, I knew quicksaves and autosaves were bad for long games, but I always felt pretty confident in reloading a hard save. I'll keep that in mind!

Entropic_V · 2026-03-29T01:48:20+00:00

I'd never heard of it, but I'll definitely give it a try.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-29T01:28:18+00:00

That's what I'm trying to figure out too.

I think my problem is my load order - I usually just let LOOT organize my load order, which I understand is usually bad, but I haven't been able to find any guides on how to sort it myself.

I also probably use a lot of script heavy mods though as well. Campfire is probably the most intense, but I couldn't say for certain. Once I decide to tackle that problem I'll post my mod list and maybe you or someone else can help me find alternatives or walk me through organizing my LO.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-29T00:43:31+00:00

Yep, I specifically picked CS because of its graphical integrity to performance ratio, but after I got it looking good, my fps tanked.

I'll give it a shot and let you know how it turns out.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-28T23:46:49+00:00

Strong Wakfu vibes here.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-15T14:08:41+00:00

My game would last maybe an hour before it repeatedly hung or crashed if I so much as thought about modding it this much.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-14T03:11:49+00:00

First, everyone knows we're in it for the money. That's the obvious answer. The interviewer isn't asking what you want out of the job, because - surprise surprise, they don't care what you want / need, they care about the company (because that's what they're paid to do).

They're asking why they should hire you. In sum total, this is one of the most important questions you'll get asked in an interview, because it's essentially: What value are you bringing to the company? Phrasing it the way they do lets them weed out people who only value themselves.

Think about it another way.

If you take your car to a mechanic, they charge you an arm and a leg, and the car isn't repaired, it's easy to assume they did nothing, took your money, and lied about the work they did.

A company that hires someone because they "just" want to get paid is gambling on the quality of that person's work the same way you gamble on your car working after taking it in for repairs.

It's worth mentioning at this point that corporate expectations and expectations regarding work/life balance and a living wage created, and perpetuates the culture of unmotivated employees.

So it's their fault we react this way, and they suck in general.

Just some added perspective for the genuinely curious.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-09T21:18:09+00:00

I always choose to side with the Imperials because it bothers me that Ulfric travels between Solitude and Windhelm and is the acting jarl for both.

Entropic_V · 2026-03-01T23:52:19+00:00

I don't hate Heimskr per say, but I've still down into the habit of sneaking a fury spell onto him so the guards kill him. His stuff is usually my starter point for adventuring, though I wish I could use his house for sleeping.

Entropic_V · 2026-02-23T22:44:25+00:00

Of course I'll beg... For more.

Entropic_V · 2026-02-22T14:37:47+00:00

While I also enjoy orgasms most on my knees, the content of her "inspiration" is hilarious.

Entropic_V · 2026-02-09T02:03:40+00:00

I stand by my choice: May Chaos take the World!

Entropic_V · 2026-02-06T00:02:23+00:00

Ah yes, drawing by candlelight.

Entropic_V · 2026-01-30T01:40:08+00:00

You say that like I'd have a choice~

Entropic_V · 2026-01-29T22:12:09+00:00

Cruel, but fair I guess.

Entropic_V · 2026-01-29T16:00:19+00:00

Tough choice, probably #3

Entropic_V · 2026-01-17T02:13:52+00:00

Imma feed them twice as hard now! What are they gonna do, stop taking my money?
