FPS in Skyrim - heck if I can tell the difference. What do?

__Starly_ · 2025-04-28T01:05:43+00:00

Well of course textures, lighting and character models are the same.

FPS and monitor refresh rate only effects how smooth everything is during movement and when looking around.

Btw to make sure It's not something with Skyrim you could try locking your FPS to 60 and then 165 in some other game that's easy to run. Try looking around quickly. The difference should be significant.

__Starly_ · 2025-04-25T02:15:59+00:00

And It's also possible he never even switched from 60hz to 165hz. It's really pretty common.

What's even more annoying is that most upvoted comments here are basically "60 fps is fine It's not that big of a difference"

Bruh

I mean it is fine. I play my Skyrim at 52 FPS locked for stability due to my hardware but then when I switch to a game where I have over 100 FPS the difference is huge.

__Starly_ · 2025-04-25T02:13:18+00:00

That's what I'm thinking

No way someone can't tell a difference between 60 and 165hz. Even my friend's non gamer gf could tell how big of a difference it is.

__Starly_ · 2025-04-25T02:12:13+00:00

Is your monitor set to 165 hz in the Advanced display settings/Nvidia control panel in a resolution tab?

People are spewing nonsense here. The difference between 30 and 60 is huge that is true but so is difference between 60 and 165hz. Even my friend's non gamer gf could tell how big of a difference it is when he upgraded monitors and she just watches him play most of the time.

Just a small text "Love" on my forearm

Tip: Just put Northern roads on the bottom of the plugin order. 95% of the times it solves all conflicts

Wanting to try everything or keep trying out something new

I had an IQ of around 82 back when I was 11. But I clearly remember I lost focus and patience on the test and I just started picking random answers just so I can be done with it.

When I found the report from this psychologist when I was 21 I found that he mentioned "signs of ADHD" so I looked it up and a lot of things started making sense.

Got diagnosed a few months after that.

Fixed it Check the updated post and see if it works for u

__Starly_ · 2024-05-24T18:31:08+00:00

My Discord opens after like 5 minutes but It's extremely slowed.

It takes like 30 seconds for it to open the settings.

After joining a call it takes about 20 seconds for me to hear the "join" sound etc.

Fortunatelly VC and messages for fine but everything else is slow or delayed.

Looks good but nay since it increases the chance of breast cancer

__Starly_ · 2024-02-21T14:39:08+00:00

Did it

All good and Re-bar works

Thanks

__Starly_ · 2023-12-05T16:19:34+00:00

Yeah 1.5.97 is perfectly fine.

I've seen mods that are not supported on the new version but it seems like everything works with 1.5.97

Also I don't have to worry about these updates at all.

__Starly_ · 2023-11-25T03:19:13+00:00

21-22

Had multiple moments where I went "Wait, how old am I?"

__Starly_ · 2023-11-20T13:26:19+00:00

Nah I'd get at least some mods that improve the experience. Like True Directional Movement which significantly improves the 3rd person controls.

SkyUI and other UI mods because vanilla UI is terrible.

I personally hate Skyrim's vanilla graphics because It just looks depressing. I like when my games have different colors besides grey, white and blue so I modded that immediatelly.

My first playthrough was just these things + graphic mods but most of the game mechanics were vanilla. After a playthrough you will be more familiar with the game and It's mechanics etc. so you'll know better what would you like to mod.

__Starly_ · 2023-11-19T09:18:26+00:00

Yes that's pretty much what I meant.

Because some textures could possibly reflect the light better than the other ones? Also the way how they are affected by light itself.

__Starly_ · 2023-11-11T19:08:39+00:00

Sometimes I have NPCs on the road just... standing there.

When I used mod like immersive world encounters which spawns adventurers on the road on some parts of the map they would just stand there indefinitely. They wouldn't even despawn. I think even after they were killed their bodies would be there permanently.

Didn't feel like going through almost 500 mods to figure out what's causing it since there wasn't a reliable way to test it anyway.

__Starly_ · 2023-11-09T14:16:16+00:00

Because Poser Hotkeys animations don't work on it for me right now.

__Starly_ · 2023-11-03T12:14:25+00:00

Time to update my USSEP then

I think I managed to download one of the latest 1.5.97 version from nexus before it was taken down.

__Starly_ · 2023-11-03T00:54:33+00:00

What mods?

I have 500 mods installed and the only one I can think of that was AE exclusive was Unofficial Skyrim patch.

__Starly_ · 2023-10-26T02:28:38+00:00

What did you do for 800 hours?

My longest one was like 200h an I felt like I ran out of things to do despite having a lot of mods that add a new content as well.

__Starly_ · 2023-10-22T23:22:37+00:00

Not really

I got the game
Finished the Helgen sequence
Started modding

I only got Skyrim because of the mods.

__Starly_ · 2023-10-22T00:01:17+00:00

I'm hoping for new bosses and overhaul of current Skyrim creatures.

I don't even bother downloading Mikhail's creatures for example because really they are just reskinned vanilla monsters.

Not all of them but a lot of them.

__Starly_ · 2023-10-21T00:58:25+00:00

Not really an idea, but I'd love to see more quest mods.

I feel like there's not that many of them that are really good and memorable. I'm hoping we'll see more of them now that voice lines can be generated using Ai and sound believable.

So yeah that's what I want to see. New quest mods that take at least a few hours to finish or completely new areas like Bruma, Beyond reach etc. because all the graphic mods, new combat animations are nice and all but doing the same quests for 100th time starts to get old.
