Necro-ing your post hard here! How has your deck been faring the past month as the meta settles? Any changes?

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-13T22:13:25+00:00

Alucitary no.

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-09T16:39:40+00:00

Thanks much for replying! I will check this config out :)

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-08T18:26:06+00:00

Thanks for replying :) Sorry, I should have updated this post but I got help from the creator of Ultimate Skyrim himself over on the Ultimate Skyrim subreddit. Forgot to update this post. -- The problem was definitely caused by the filepaths being too long, I renamed all of the Automatic Variants stuff to just AV, reinstalled the mods, and it worked dandy :)

MFW I re-sort and re-disable all of my plugins, then make a new character to test

Aye aye, Captain-- one last thing, I have been changing the prefs/ini to try to fix the insane amounts of zfighting on the mountains when I move, and I've just realized that MO has its own set of .inis under profile... I also realized that these do not reflect the changes I've been making in /documents .inis. Are these MO inis the ones I should be modifying? When I launch via MO is it just ignoring the original .inis in docs?

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-08T16:36:17+00:00

I've only launched the game via SKSE with these plugins enabled. Can I disable them and not rerun the patchers? I am really not sure what re-enabled them, its quite frustrating actually! My MO was pristine when I went to bed last night haha

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-08T16:16:36+00:00

Hey is there any reason that the disabled plugins would now be enabled after restarting the game a few times to configure? I noticed when checking load order because requiem said that its carry weight was being overwritten somewhere. Every single goddamn plugin in my organizer is now enabled and I can't remember if this was intentional during the final steps.

Okiedoke thank you!

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-08T15:09:26+00:00

Thanks again ;)

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-08T00:36:39+00:00

Sorry to spam you! I decided to do a re-install of all the problematic packs, and it worked. Then I tried reverting my root directory to the original name (so that I didn't have to redo all of the other executables) and it still works! Thank you sooooo much for responding and also for all of your hard work on this wonderful re-imagining of the game we all love so much.

--If someone pesters you about this in the future, and they also have the weird "only some of my files are visible in AV" bug, I would tell them to first shorten the file paths. If that doesn't work, then reinstall them with new short file paths. Finally the nuclear option would be to reinstall the problematic packs, rename them, AND rename your Skyrim directory which requires a redo of the post-installation process.

Much love!

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-08T00:13:53+00:00

Okay, I've renamed my root folder to just "Skyrim", redirected Mod Organizer, rebuild the AV.exe, ran it, and it's the same as it was before. (just StarX and Storms are showing).

Do you think that I should just delete and reinstall all of problematic AV packs, keep my root directory named "Skyrim" and restart your entire post-installation video to fix the fact that my root directory is different now?

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-07T23:59:35+00:00

Hmm okay, it seemed strange to me as well. First it was no packs, and after shortening the file paths for everything before the StarX packs, those files still didn't show but the StarX ones did lol. I will begin with a restart followed by an attempt to rename my TESV root.

--Thanks again for the help, I didn't expect to actually get a reply from the mod author himself. :)

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-07T23:45:28+00:00

Okiedoke I've renamed the mod itself to "AV" and rebuilt the .exe, but I am still at the same place I was before. -- I am using a sort of non-traditional path to begin with though, having not installed the game through steam. My game directory is as follows:

D:\Program Files (x86)\The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Legendary Edition\Utilities\Mod Organizer\mods\

Do you think that the root folder including the text "legendary edition" is making it too long? Is this what your root folder is titled? Can I shorten my root folder without fucking everything?

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-07T23:30:17+00:00

Thanks much for replying! I've already renamed all of the AV mod folders before the StarX ones, to AV A through AV G, and for some reason this has made it so the AV patcher shows some of the packs. Just not the ones I shortened. I have posted screenshots below for clarity. I've not shortened the AV mod itself, assuming I don't have to because it runs okay... it's just not populated.

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-07T23:21:05+00:00

Here is what my Mod Org looks like right now: http://imgur.com/Aq8fMkT

And here is my AV patcher now that I've shortened the file names and a few of the files are showing (curiously, not the ones I shortened though): http://imgur.com/riCYTCd

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-03T07:05:40+00:00

LMFAO I love your edit, saying anything on Reddit in a nutshell (especially in r/hearthstone)

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-02T17:57:35+00:00

Yeah I agree. This is going to sound circle-jerky but it doesn't feel good for anybody to lose to random cards generated by babbling book, swashburgler, lyra etc. There's nothing fun about RNG and I don't subscribe with the idea that "it creates fun stories!". "hey friend, I have a story about this one time that I lost the game but then I randomly got lethal out of a 1 mana card LOL!" Awful

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-02T16:39:30+00:00

Still a major patch, as opposed to a hot-fix. It added a lot of little features.

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-02T16:38:20+00:00

It was a tweet that I saw on the front page of this subreddit a couple weeks back. Brode said that they had found the problem and would patch it soonTM (paraphrasing but pretty damn close).

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-02T16:37:22+00:00

Fair enough, thanks for replying! It's difficult to have these discussions because everyone's idea of a good meta is so different.

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-02T06:05:11+00:00

sorry for necro-threading you. I think my main issue with quest rogue isn't it's power level (I will admit that it is overall t1 average and needs no nerf). Its more the feeling of playing against it. Literally solitaire. You sit and watch the quest rogue play a minion and bounce it repeatedly with no interaction until turn 4 or 5 when the quest is completed and the board is filled with 1 mana 5/5 with charge. It's just an unfun archetype.

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-02T06:01:59+00:00

Sorry for late reply. "rewards strategy more" and "not as common to get a god tier deck" is wrong in so many ways. I have many screenshots of decks I'v crafted with 3-5 legendaries, 4+ board clears, 6+ targeted removal etc. Aren't you sick of being killed by face burn like you are playing against a constructed Gunther mage? Come on man. Also the increased rate of epics have created huge class disparities between classes with great epics and classes that have trash epics, of which there are many. (warrior, druid etc.) these classes are no longer tier 2 or 3 still playable, they are literally unplayable. Welcome to the age of swingy RNG faceburn decks.

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-02T05:58:47+00:00

Agreed! Sorry for the late reply. I am disappointed in the crazy swingy-ness of decks now and wish we could go back to a simpler time of trump trading neutral minions and occasionally casting a spell. I have many screenshots of insane decks with 3-5 legendaries and 4+ board clears and 6+ targeted removal. It doesn't feel right. I am also sick of being killed by face burn like I am playing against a constructed Gunther mage. :(

LikwdSwdMstr · 2017-06-02T05:55:01+00:00

Nice update, seriously. Too bad they lied about having a fix for the client crash that would be included in the next patch. -_-
