How to Easily Create TOML Patches for Recast NPC Replacers
Troubleshooting
Reading a Skyrim crash log without the fear
A crash log looks intimidating, but you only need the first screen of it to solve most crashes. Here is how.
Troubleshooting
Fixing the dark or gray face
One of the most common modding sights, and one of the easiest to fix once you know it is an asset conflict, not a sort problem.
Performance
Getting your frames back without losing the look
A heavy visual list is GPU hungry, but most of the cost lives in a few places. Spend your frames there.
Installation
Installing a ColdSun follower the right way
From requirements to FaceGen, the clean way to add one of my followers without the gray face or the missing body.
Compatibility
Adding a mod to a curated list without breaking it
You can absolutely add to a list. The trick is to always be able to get back to a known good state, and to never auto-sort a large order.
Requirements
The core requirements behind every ColdSun mod
Get these installed once, correctly, and the rest of your modding gets a lot calmer. Most install problems are really a missing requirement.
Saves
Save hygiene: how to never lose a playthrough
A little discipline turns a corrupt save from a lost campaign into a minor annoyance. Four habits do most of the work.
