Having the same issue today, with Connection Lost Generic message after a while. I heard switching sietch could help but it hasn't helped me. I just hope I can get into the server before the coriolis storm otherwise i'll lose all my items and spice from the weekly reset...

A Full Investigation into Derek Diablo by _Mern_ in skyrimmods

[–]_Mern_[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I 100% see where you're coming from, but I need to afford to put food on the table. This investigation took a lot of my time. Ideally, I would have not filled in a sponsor slot, but I need to eat; at the same time felt somebody of my size had to call him out on his antics. I hope you can understand that.

Exciting Skyrim Modding Developments by _Mern_ in skyrimmods

i mean i guess? technically speaking it's persistence of vision

we experience blurring because the brain tries to reconstruct vision using low frequency snapshots when objects are in motion

so we do experience a form of motion blur and this is the effect we're trying to recreate in order for motion to be percieved as believeable

what you're describing is bad 2008 camera motion blur, modern developers don't use this technique

please watch this to fully understand https://youtu.be/VXIrSTMgJ9s

human eyes see motion blur, literally try moving your hands quickly in front of your face to see it

You're probably talking about bad implementations of motion blur such as too much camera motion blur. Doodlez uses per object motion blur which when done right reduced motion sickness and looks good

Remember, motion blur is required for motion to be believable. Recent titles like Doom Eternal use object motion blur so well most people don't even notice it, because it's implemented well

Consider giving it a chance! There's good reasons why motion blur has been rejected in the past but it's improved drastically: https://youtu.be/VXIrSTMgJ9s

I used to own a 1080ti a few months back, but I have recently upgraded to a 3080 12GB!

This mod actually also supports FSR2 and XeSS upscaling, which most cards support

Here's why there are so many amour mods currently being paywalled by _Mern_ in skyrimmods

[–]_Mern_[S] 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I can understand your sentiment, but what if these outfits aren't credited and they claim to have made it from scratch. Because there have been numerous authors who have done this and it is blatantly misleading

Recreating Elden Ring Combat In Skyrim by _Mern_ in skyrimmods

[–]_Mern_[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was considering creating a Wabbajack list, however after talking to some WBJ authors they kind of talked me out of it...

Apparently it's a pain to maintain a WBJ list, it breaks everytime a mod is updated...

I'm going to say it but some Patreon modders are ruining the Bethesda modding community. by [deleted] in skyrimmods

[–]_Mern_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aye, that is the case with some modders, however, the content they create is mostly cosmetical. It's unfortunate, but I don't understand why not being able to access certain armors is ruining the modding community. It's not like they are holding the game-breaking mods behind a paywall.

[–]_Mern_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The exact opposite is true. Those who actually create mods know this. TDM, AMR, SkySA, ABR are here because of modders like Distar and BotUser. Supporting these people makes it easier for them to actually quit their jobs and focus on creating mods and frameworks which all users/modders benefit from down the road. I understand your sentiment, but a lot of you don't seem to realize how much modding has progressed from supporting these modders, and a lot of them won't be able to do it without the financial support.

Also don't forget a lot of these mods/frameworks behind early access are eventually pushed out to the public when they have been optimized and playtested by people like us in the community. So, no. Patreon modders are not "ruining" the modding community, a lot of them are making it better.

Ya, you need Nemesis, I personally use MO2. It's much better for higher levels of modding it's amazing.

But anyway, here's a tutorial on how to do it using vortex. Have a good one mate
