^^its not just the colors that are changed. the mod sharpens the textures. and makes the lighting more dynamic.
the mod has various flavors while installing. u can choose to have it install just the sharpness tweak while
maintaining the original colors. trust me. you have to try it out atleast once. u can always uninstall it if ya don't like it. and besides. 81KB literally takes 1 second. regardless where on earth you live @_@.

Oh yeah.... forgot to mention. it lets you switch between vanilla and enhanced at the press of a button. anytime.
so you can always switch back smile.gif

Okay, now have Skyrim (PC version). Have played it for five minutes, and now remember why I absolutely hated playing Morrowind on the PC -- the controls for moving your character around are absolutely horrid! Everything else is fine, but I hate WASD+Mouse as the controls to move your character around while another hand is needed to use spells or something else, and it won't let me configure those particular buttons the way I want. I forgot how bad it was after having played Oblivion on the PS3 (in fact, the GOTY edition was one of the games I picked up as my "three free games" with the purchase of my PS3 however many years ago that was). I figured I'd pick up the PC version this time so I could mod it (or at least download mods, if I get lazy), but I'm starting to regret that.

If I bought a gamepad for the PC, could I get it to work roughly using the same controls (at least for moving and, probably, fighting) as the Oblivion PS3 controls? Never used (or even considered) buying a gamepad for the PC, before this, so I've got no idea what it's capable of.

You haven't experienced the full cofusion of modern gender relations until you've heard an angry group of women yelling, "We want tentacles!" at an all-night Hentai-fest.

Yes, you could. I've seen people buy the Xbox 360 controllers for games like Half-Life or Left 4 Dead on PCs. Just needs tweaking.

I use the Xbox360 gamepad connected to my comp through the USB to play it. The game was actually made around using the gamepad. I can aim better using WASD and the mouse, but all the contextual menus are made for the gamepad.

@ desaix. usin the wired 360 gamepad on pc literally is like playing a super enhanced 360 version.
all the menus and button prompts switch to 360 controls. its been like this for most pc games
that support gamepads specially any pc game that has "games for windows" on its cover. (like skyrim)

Okay, anyone in PS3 reached the 5mb save data size? Apparently, it starts to lag when you do.

http://www.destructo...s3-216018.phtml

Other comments on the link include controller lagging at 8 mb, playing it for too long in 1 sitting causes lag (which I can kinda attest to, but I haven't played it long enough in 1 sitting to really be too annoyed)....

I have, a bit ridiculous how much worse it runs. I had to sit at a loading screen for a good two minutes after getting munched on by a dragon. Not only that it also takes longer to render everything which gets rather annoying.

I'm getting a bit more lag, now, mostly while I'm walking around. I haven't gotten anything that's gotten me killed yet, so far.

We are talking about the mage guy at the ending of the quest, not the beggining.

So, an idiot at the programing team must have thought that making fire wizards able to kill you in two hits would be pretty funny, well I'm not laughing... at all. mad.gif

Edit: I'm currently playing on normal at level 20 and a frost dragon bite chunk about 90% of my health.... REALLY? If this was on master difficulty I would understand, but on normal... REALLY?! I starting to get the felling that enemie difficulty gets incredibly umbalanced as I proceed.

*Feeling, enemy. Imbalanced


Anyway, fire is really deadly in this game, I feel like. My brother has less trouble fighting Frost Dragons (most likely because he's a Nord, and they have an innate resistance to Frost), than fire breathing dragons, but I do too, and I'm an Imperial.

It's possible that 'Fire Wizard' was a Dragon Priest with his annoying fireball staff I just saw my brother fight. Unless you weren't in Shearpoint.
