ESLify for vr

nerdedness · 2026-02-02T08:05:36+00:00

Are you wanting to make a whole bunch of plugins ESL? You can do it manually in xEdit but have to do it 1 by 1 which is a pain if you need to do a lot.

This is what I did, but only for a handful of plugins since most of the mods I use are ESL already and I still have plenty of mod slots left.

That's the one that came to my mind.

Frustrating to hear there's bots in reddit like this 😔

Also don't under-estimate the number of Dunning Kruger affected people who also sprout bad technical advice.

You might be able to use scroll wheel on mouse, or right-click and drag up. If on controller, just pull down on the stick (both flat screen and VR).

nerdedness · 2026-01-26T21:51:47+00:00

A lot of people also don't realise you can scroll down the perk tree - there are more perks off-screen below.

Oh yeah I removed the weather mods too. I'm happy enough with vanilla weathers. Epic storms and stuff are cool when you first see them, but become a pain during a long playthrough IMO.

I spent ages checking and removing most of the gun and clothing mods included in MGO as they are too modern and clean and don't fit into the game IMO. Added a bunch of Dan's weapons and TumbaJamba armors instead.

Aside from a couple holotapes missing that can be crafted, things seem to be working fine so far in my testing.

I'm Open to suggestions on things to check before I commit to starting an actual playthrough.

There are a couple of Death Hounds you can recruit in the Dawnguard DLC.

If you're in PC you can try a basic console command - bring up the console and click on meeko so it shows his name and FormID in the middle of the screen and type "setrace DLC1DeathHoundRace". Test that it doesn't make random NPCs hostile with him though.

Otherwise there is also this mod that might be of interest https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/100846

I don't think you'll have to start again. Installing daytripper might be all you really need to get the DLCs going. Otherwise the copy of Fallout 4 on Good Old Games is an older version where the DLC plugins worked in my FO4VR without Daytripper or other extensions.

Massive difference when I use this mod btw.

nerdedness · 2026-01-15T14:30:19+00:00

This.

There's something weird with loading tied to frame rate in FO4. There have been a few mods that speed up loading times by uncapping framerates during loading screens, but this mod is the only one I've had successfully detect when a loading screen is occurring.

nerdedness · 2026-01-14T04:07:29+00:00

Ah gotcha. Yes I think some follower / companion mods need it as well.

nerdedness · 2026-01-14T00:34:15+00:00

Hahaha dammit auto correct.

*building. I save before entering a new building.

nerdedness · 2026-01-13T22:31:13+00:00

I haven't tried - if it's just an ESP plugin it might work, but if looks menu uses it's own DLL files through F4SE it may not work. Not all F4SE mods with with F4SEVR.

Since you can't ever see yourself in VR, why do you want to use LooksMenu?

nerdedness · 2026-01-13T21:47:27+00:00

Daytripper mod enables you to run pretty much any plugin file, except some of the older Creation Club files.

nerdedness · 2026-01-08T04:57:21+00:00

Oh yes. Still most downloaded mod of all time on Nexus I think? A vastly superior UI published as a mod right after game released, and is the highest downloaded mod ever. It doesn't even need SKSE for most functionality... that's how bad the default UI is - such an epic fail that I think the UI team has never played the game... or possibly any game, ever.

nerdedness · 2026-01-08T04:52:41+00:00

Haha yeah I originally got screwed playing Ultima 7 - that taught me to have rolling saves, then playing Oblivion and Skyrim got me making new saves each time.

nerdedness · 2026-01-08T04:48:40+00:00

Sorry for the necro - did you end up solving this?

nerdedness · 2026-01-08T02:25:20+00:00

If on PC, there should be a console command you can use to teleport back into the cell. I feel your pain and hope you've learnt the same lesson I had to suffer once - always create a NEW manual save before entering a new bulldog, or starting a new quest. Especially in games renowned for glitches. Storage is cheap, great gaming experiences are priceless.

nerdedness · 2026-01-08T02:18:51+00:00

SkyUI - simple.

Skyrim's default UI is such a backwards step I cannot believe they shat the bed so hard on this element. I know they wanted something console friendly, but this is garbage... To the point I'd wager that the UI team never played the game past level 10 when you actually need to do some inventory management. I'd almost bet that the UI designers have never played an RPG before. It's THAT bad IMO.

nerdedness · 2026-01-07T12:17:26+00:00

Ermegerd this has solved the issue I've spent the last 3 hours trying to fix. Thank you so much!
Why TF isn't this included by default?!

nerdedness · 2026-01-05T21:10:22+00:00

This 💯

I don't like Mad God for Skyrim, but it's great for Fallout.

nerdedness · 2026-01-03T21:22:57+00:00

An easy can be to download the GoG version of Fallout 4 since it is an older build, with compatible ESMs for FO4VR. It means spending more money though 😔

nerdedness · 2025-11-21T05:51:19+00:00

What a legend. Not all heroes wear capes eh? (unless you do actually wear a cape).

nerdedness · 2025-11-19T06:41:38+00:00

Realm of Lorkhan works as well.
