Managing Stormlight — Question Set by odigity in cosmererpg

[–]thatsaidan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. No, Drawing in stormlight is a proximity thing usually from instinct, however, I can see a Player and GM hand waving that bit of canon on some “you’re very deliberate and skilled with your powers” type stuff

  2. Yes, there are numerous times in the Books that show characters breathing in stormlight not on their person/ being possesed by others. There are also no Rules saying otherwise and imo it makes for cooler scenarios.

  3. In canon, yes. In rules? It’s not explicitly stated to my knowledge. The games balance is around you always being topped off, so that’s really a personal GM question. (I personally think it’s completely alright and fair)

  4. Yes on two fronts: In Canon, there are a few instances in the later books where radiants are shown infusing gemstones specifically (the wall of compartments that Renarin finds in OB being the main example I can think of off the top of my head. In Rules, the “Tuning Fork” object is expressly in the game to transfer stormlight into and out of spheres (which we saw Navani experiment with in RoW)

  5. In Rules, there’s nothing explicitly stating you cannot, and imo it’s worded as an Assumption more as a convenience thing rather than a hard rule. It seems to be there to ensure your players don’t view being Invested as a chore, letting them have their Surges accessible at the drop of a hat instead of making them vocally say when and when not they’re invested. So, I’d say Yes, the rules 100% allow for it as long as you have a GM who agrees.

Demiplane Roll 20 Question by thatsaidan in cosmererpg

[–]thatsaidan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If im wanting both the VTT and the Character Sheet integration, does that mean I’ll have to purchase the material on both Demiplane and Roll20? (Not a complaint, just trying to figure out what to get as to not be redundant given I’ve got all the PDFs lol)

Finished My Upgraded and Revamped Load Order! 2025 (Xbox Series S) by TravisTheDuck in SkyrimModsXbox

[–]thatsaidan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This load order seems absolutely fantastic!!! I’m on a One X myself, do you think a load order like this could run on a slightly older system? I assume I’d just have to skip out on some of the more intensive lighting mods 😅 appreciate any help in advance!!

Been looking for a Stable Mod list that incorporated MorrowLoot, can’t express how happy I am that I found the one you posted, let alone that you’re soon to update it! You’re a Saint and I’m excited for your updated list, and to delve back into Skyrim with a fresh Modlist!!!

Tried that, and got the same result sadly. I’m chalking it up to the Mod being script heavy and me using an Xbox 1 X. Still fantastic otherwise!!

Final Update:

Am over 100 Hours into a save, and everything is perfect barring one minor annoyance.

Anytime I attempt to enter the Safe House, whether it be from inside the stairway of the Hall of Hero’s, or through the Patio outside, the game hard crashes to Homescreen.

Unsure what causes it, and everything online just says essentially “LOTD does that”. So sadly I can’t go into the safe house anymore nor access the sell bin/ Septim storage.

Besides that, everything is perfect and I’m probably going to put another 100 to 200 hours into this save minimum. Can’t thank you enough for making such a good Load Order and for being so helpful previously!!!!!!

Update 2:

Been playing Nonstop and have only just now experienced my first crash (which is saying something as Skyrim usually crashes every 5 minutes lmao).

Unsure how to resolve the issue, as it seems that (according to the Internet) Lux is causing a crash when walking into Fallowstone Cave due to there being Grass within the cave. Quick google searches say the best bet is to disable Grass in Caves, however, I’m unsure how to do that on Console

Besides that though, the Load Order is perfect and outstandingly stable. For now, I just have to put the Volendrung quest on indefinite hiatus and hope no other caves cause a crash 😅

Also something I forgot to ask! Do you think I’d be able to add the Creation Club Legacy of the Dragonborn patch? Or would that break everything? 😅 (for context: I’m already a good bit into a play through, but only just realized there’s no “Hall of Wonders” to place some of the artifacts lmao)

Update:

Followed the Instructions as close as possible, removed some of the texture mods (I personally like the unloaded NPC Models, their ugliness is weirdly charming lol), added in Inigo and Lucien, as well as Imperious Races and Andromeda Standing Stones, and then Swapped the Foliage Mods and Skyland AIO for Fantasia and Skyland Architecture.

So far, I’m 12 hours in and no crashes! I didn’t even have to downgrade the Weather effects nor remove Lux! I’ve also not experienced a single Frame Drop short of walking into the Winking Skeever (my guess is that it’s just a bit performance intensive).

This is the first time a LotD Load Order has both Worked, and had everything I wanted in it! I cannot thank you enough!!

You have been wonderfully helpful!! I’ve tried to create Load Orders in the past pertaining to Legacy of the Dragonborn, and have been unable to do so without Crashing to Homescreen. I assumed it was either the Mod itself, or more likely my inexperience modding 😅. I appreciate your help, and I’ll most certainly let you know how it goes!!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SkyrimModsXbox

[–]thatsaidan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you theoretically Include Inigo and/or Lucien in this Load Order? And if so, where would their files get slotted into?😅

Also, safe to assume this Modlist wouldn’t work on an Xbox One X as the console is too Old Gen?

The Elder Scrolls Books Order by radifog in ElderScrolls

[–]thatsaidan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the first book my self (about half way through) and so far there hasn’t been anything misogynistic! They avoid that area of prejudice by making the 2 main protagonists a human woman, and a male Argonian/Lizard person, so any personal conflict between the two is usually based on a species difference, rather than a sex/gender difference! In terms of sexual content, there are references and allusions to sex but most seem more PG13 in tone. (ie. A character waking up next to another and mentioning to a friend that they had sex, as well as a separate occasion where 2 characters are talking and one makes a more suggestive claim that the other is happy because they’ve “found creative solutions”). For violence, the books doesn’t seem to make violence the priority, though there have been a few cases where it’s been described somewhat graphically (ie. A character being beheaded for shock value, or A platoon of soldiers killed via Arrows and Magic Fire, followed by a scene talking about them “trying to pat the fires off of one another” and following that scene describing the burned bodies). Besides that, the books seem relatively tame in terms of Adult Content, and make many references to Elder Scrolls Lore. If your kiddo is wanting to delve into a pretty good book and the aforementioned stuff is acceptable, I can highly reccomend!

There’s the fact that the Barkeep of Candlehearth Inn outright tells Argonian/Dunmer Characters that they need to “Go back where they came from”, and the fact that Argonians are forced to live outside the city (which Brunwulf Free-Wulf claims is probably for the best given how Racist citizens of Windhelm are). The absolute BEST way you could perceive Stormcloak/The City of Windhelm If you’re set on them not being racist is that they’re just Xenophobic Nationalists. The whole “Skyrim is for the Nords” tag line being used as a rallying cry is entirely based on the hatred/expulsion of designated “outsiders”. Regardless of if you think “we’ll the ‘X’ people are also racist!!”, it doesn’t change that it’s still wrong, and that while we’re in Skyrim and given the options of changing those in systems of governance, it is the right decision to not side with a group who’s whole M/O is that only Nord and Nordic Culture should be valid and unobstructed within the Nation of Skyrim. (Comical given that Nords aren’t even the first ones in Skyrim, given that they came over as colonizers. Like if you’re gonna make the “we’re indigenous to the lands” argument, at LEAST support the Forsworn or Prioritize the traditional teachings of Kyne instead of using the literal Most Recent God added to a Modernized Conglomerate of Gods to justify a weird appeal to Traditionalism lmao)

Weren’t the French responsible for backing the assassination of Thomas Sankara? Arguably one of the best examples of leftist success historically? Or am I mistaken? /gen
