I can rest peacefully now, also I thought that footprint was yours, I was like "Holy fucking shit?"
around compatibility patches for other mods very often
Yeah it almost seemed like every mod had compatibility with some 7 other mods. That's how I discovered a lot of good mods.
I even have a little mod idea from 2012. I haven’t done it yet. Maybe I still will.
I was honestly shocked to see that LE still gets uploads, even though they are mostly texture mods. Some SE/AE mods do get ported to LE, but like you said, there isn't much more for compatibility for all of these mods. You have to patch stuff yourself using XEdit, and... Oh boy!
texture compression playable at all during the summer months
I thought I was I crazy when I said that I shouldn't play games in the summer. But a couple of screenshots I had showcased a much lower CPU temperature in the winter. So there I was in the winter, toes and fingies frozen, just playing Skyrim. Mostly just roaming and making my own stories and sub plots, I never did any kind of faction quest ever.
Skyrim and Minecraft
My first modding experience with Minecraft was with Forge and Optifine on version 1.12. Tbh it was a very bad experience partly because of my even weaker rig back then. But now I think the Minecraft ecosystem is better than ever, I have seen a huge shift to adopt open source licenses for mods (Although to be fair, when I was a kid I didn't check for licenses lol). I always thought I couldn't play the latest and greatest version because I have a weaker system, but Sodium and some other 20 mods turned the table! I'm talking about Fabric here, as it has a much lower memory footprint than Forge, albeit less mods :(
A man after my own heart. Also here's how the game looked like
Those trees in the distance (LOD Trees) are hallucinations created by your dwindling sanity as you try to squeeze +2 fps. When you go near them they simply plop out of existence.
Also my game looked worse than this. Interestingly the Xbox360 version of the game not only looked better. but actually ran at a smooth 30 fps.
For any poor soul that wants to attempt what I did, first you must follow the official guide on the Skyrim Modding Wiki, then take a look at this A Helpful Guide To Increase Skyrim's Performance and Stability - FPS and Optimization
Your biggest boost will probably be from reducing the resolution, and making sure that you are using dxvk or Gallium Nine, DO NOT USE WINED3D which is basically the default state of wine. Gallium Nine was so easy to install when Mesa 24 was compiled with it enabled, now Mesa 25 stopped compiling Gallium Nine so you have to compile Mesa 1.24.x yourself and enable Gallium Nine support. I tried but for the life of me it wouldn't fucking compile.+
In the end, I modded Skyrim more than I played it.
The Winlator experience for me was crazy. I would try so god damn hard to get a game to run, then when it's running at a stable framerate, I never play it again. Spent more time on "can I?" instead of "Should I?"
~~Sadly Winlator has ceased development or something? I heard something about the dev having school or taking a temporary break, I am not sure.~~ Winlator is still up, thanks @MazonnaCara89@lemmy.ml for correcting me!
Context for my setup: I was running it under wine with an Intel i3 with iGPU. I didn't take "no" as an answer, if I wanted to play Skyrim, I will play Skyrim. Since I can't use dxvk, I had to use Gallium Nine. In the end Gallium Nine gave me the biggest boost, now interiors average about 40-45 fps, and exteriors are about 25-30. I was also crazy enough to want to play with some 150+ mods, so there's no one to blame here but me.
complex ancient fading lore
It might as well be. Lots of mods got deleted, then there is the split between Legendary Edition, and whatever the newer two versions are, so now we have a shit ton of backports and forward ports of many mods. Skyrim modding was a nightmare, I can't even imagine trying to mod say, Fallout: New Vegas.
Also shouldn't you guys be due to a change? I have no idea how that cross found its place on your flags, but to me it seems that it needs to change to symbol progress and multiculturalism. Is changing flags that hard?
I think that the most recent flags came from revolutions or military uprisings.
Art styles slays.
Not with that attitude!
I don't need sleep, I need answers. Please tell me, what are they eating!
Better colors than most country flags, smh.
"I almost wanted to post my thoughts and concerns over lemmy, until I realized that it was way too fucking long, so I got really angry and crushed a bottle of water that was near me, I wanted to punch a wall, but the bottle came in clutch. I am so fucking angry right now, I am fucking, RAGE."
There's no hope left for me. My health is in rapid decline, I have fibromyalgia, my limbs hurt every time I try to move them, my neck and shoulders hurt all the time too. I can't open my mouth all the way to the end, because my jaw would get stuck. I cannot speak for more than 20 minutes or so, because my throat will start to ache for hours. My eyesight is in decline, my glasses are so strong that I am starting to see edges being blurred or light behaving in strange ways. And that's only my physical health. If I was to start to talk about my mental health, paragraphs upon paragraphs would not even begin to describe my experience. In every waking second, I am in extreme pain.
For context, I live in the middle east, seeking help is not an option, making friends is not an option, I have tried many times, and decided not to. It would take about 5 or 6 years for me to even begin to see a chance of escaping this, this sickness, this place, this wasteland. So why hope? Hope for what? Everyday, my health is playing dice with me, one day I will snap, and I have snapped many times. I do not know what I will do. I have tried many ways to alleviate my "problems". I have tried meditation, and it works for a certain degree, I have tried music, and it works for a certain degree, I have tried journaling, and it is possibly the reason why I still haven't killed myself. If not for my journal and my music, I would be dead. But tonight, tonight, I have the overwhelming urge to end it. I joke many times by saying that the only reason why I haven't killed myself is because I do not have the means to do. There aren't high buildings around me, using a knife would be dumb as I would just bleed and cry, because oh no survival instincts. Pills are dumb too, as I might just throw up. I can't tie a noose, plus there's a chance of failure that I don't want to deal with.
So here I am, stuck in a limbo of suffering, as I am writing this my arms are begging me to stop typing, so I could stare at the ceiling and focus on their pain.
Here are some random copy and pastes from today's journal entry:
"Each day is more hopeless than the next. My health seems to take its toll more and more. I can't speak, move my limbs, or do anything really. My mouth starts to ache when I speak for more than 20 minutes, my limbs have been discussed extensively in many, many previous entries, my eyes are in decline, even my hearing is starting to show signs of decay. That leaves me with my brain, which is also fogged and clouded."
"I am in a very bad shape, I don't know what the future has for me. My only task right now is to survive one year of high school, I have to, I am not trying to agitate your anxiety, but the more you fail school the more years you will be stuck here. I am sick, like literally, physically, sick of this place. This place shall only bring suffering and ruin upon me.
"This place is like a void, the more I stay in it, the more it sucks out of me. I am certain that if I stay here any longer, I will kill myself."
"Chances are astronomically high, that the more I stay here, the more likely I am to kill myself."
"This place is a sickness, a plague, a fucking wasteland of carrion and decay."
"I am destroyed, I am spent, I have no energy left, no energy to think, no energy to listen, no energy to speak, no energy to plan my suicide. I wish, I wish... That all of this somehow goes away. It won't, I have to endure, decrease the pain, and cope in a healthy manner. And I am trying, trying really hard, with what little energy I have."
PS: You know what's funny? Compiling this was actually a very nice distraction, but that's what it is, a distraction, a very short one.

Then I must have been tripping balls, as I recall v10 was the last thing they were gonna release, the whole repo was archived too, maybe it was Ajay's prefix being archived? I really don't recall. Anyway thanks from stopping me from spreading misinformation!
