I just found this out, if the mods are not downloading then verify the game cache (Properties > Local Files > Verify Integrity Of Game Cache), it fixed the workshop download issue for me

Hey, I'm having a problem with one quest item... I was rewarded with Volendrung hammer. The hammer was placed on a rack and was too loaded to pick it up and decided to come back for it after I dump some of my carried stuff.

When I came back to the Ork village, Volendrung was gone from the rack :///

How do I find the hammer now ???

[viper[cww] 14]

I picked up volendrung off the rack, just to check its stats, I couldn't re-place it which annoyed me, had to go on the ground (not interested in two handed weapons).

Check the surrounding area, first time I got to that shrine of orc armour etc it was all scattered around due to physics, the hammer may have rolled away. Or try typing this in console "player.additem 0002acd2 1", 0002acd2 is the formID for Volendrung it may work if it doesn't I'll try myself to find the editorID ingame. Note if it does work it will add volendrung in your inventory. So make sure you have some free space to carry it. You can read more on volendrung's stats here.

@ArmAriffic

Thanks I'll try that.

@Viper[CWW] Thanks man, I was going to ask about console command to add Volendrung to my inventory. I searched the entire village, but no effect the hammer is gone. That's how the physics work in Skyrim, things sometimes get messed up and they lie all over the place :/

Sometimes? Every time i enter a house or room, sh*t is flying all over the place :|

I skimmed the last few pages of this thread and didn't notice anything about this so I'm going to go ahead and post it.

Now that is a real shame.

[viper[cww] 14]

Yeah, saw this sad news yesterday, at such a young age too, anyone now how he died? His artwork is amazing.

[Mr. Charles 22]

Cancer.

So in Adam's memory, please "Squeeze the Nun", and leave a tip in Adam's name with the American Cancer Society.

Does anybody know where you can find a list of your subscribed mods on steam? I've gotten to the point where I have lost count on what I'm using, I played yesterday after a long break and have since enabled some visual mods/meshes etc and my game is looking how it should of in the first place.

I know when you run the launcher the bottom right it synchronises the mods, showing they're names, isn't there a way we can have a list within the steam GUI with links to all mods currently subscribed to?

Edit:

Nevermind I found it.

New Nvidia drivers are out today they increase Skyrim performance by 40+ % I haven't tested them yet but I've installed them now and add ambient occlusion to the Nvidia control panel!

By the way what the hell is wrong with the forums today? Layout is all bugged or something hope its not another stupid change.

Just thought I would post some nice mod combinations for travelers and Follower users to make this thing like it should have been out of the box:

Better Followers

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=11193

Followers will now mount a horse with you (a second purchased horse) and you can command them as usual while on it.

Camping Kit

skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=10573

Deploy a camp and make changes.

Followers Can Relax

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=9504

You can tell follower to "stay here" and they will go about business of eating/sleeping/cooking or sitting depending whats around while they wait for you (which works with a deployed camp as above).

Companion Hotkey

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=4322

Use hot keys to take from follower / get them to stay or follow (without having to be near them or pulling out the ballache menu).

Better Horses

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=10579

Whistle for your horse if lost, call it from far away if it cannot hear you, can pack good onto it, sets its stamina/running speed, sets whether all horses or some never die, sets if they attack or not & also if hitting NPC will cause collision / injury. The best thing is it will follow you if on foot and you can say to stop etc. Best of all its in ESP addon format so no relying on injector type dll's.

First Person View On Horse (Just an ini edit)

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=5758

So combined I have a follower I can control without pulling the silly menu up (for most options not all), I can have them follow with a horse, set them to do things while they wait. In an example case travel with companion & horses, unpack a camp, set up cooking pots etc, then set them "stay here" they then go off and cook and randomly sit, and sleep at night. If you take wife follower they will cook and have money & so on. So now travelling becomes allot more interesting and useful with a follower.

I know these are all to be found but I thought Id post a combination that work together (Im not using latest beta just recent patch version BTW).

All that's needed now are usable boats & canoes, and working fishing rods for catching food :)

Hi, I have a little problem in Windhelm. So I'm allowed to buy this old norse residence called Hjerim. Thing is there is a bloody mess inside,a nice leftover from bugged murderer quest. When I talk to Windhelm's steward there is no 'house cleaning' dialogue line and when I buy Hjerim and decorate it the bloody mess still remains and ruins the atmosphere :/ Do ho I fix this, console? Any mod ? Help.

Here is a nice little mod. It mostly fixes the colors day/night & interior/exterior. Really nice indeed. Want dark dungeons, install this then :)

Hjerim Mess Fix

I think this should solve your problem. Haven't tired it myself, since I don't have a house there, though.

So many factors and such a large game, try a deep search and maybe post on official site to get something worthwhile maybe:

BTW I forgot to add to previous post 3 sound mods that, well, transform it for me:

"Sounds Of Skrim" :

The Wilds : http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=10886

Just to finalise the mods I have searched out ( http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?127672-The-Elder-Scrolls-5-Skyrim&p=2111999&viewfull=1#post2111999 ), one recent has landed that has taken care of horses for good & has all in one solution that needed (for me) 3-4 other addons.

Better Horses

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=10579

Whistle for your horse if lost, call it from far away if it cannot hear you, can pack good onto it, sets its stamina/running speed, sets whether all horses or some never die, sets if they attack or not & also if hitting NPC will cause collision / injury. The best thing is it will follow you if on foot and you can say to stop etc. Best of all its in ESP addon format so no relying on injector type dll's.

Also the way its implemented is very well done, go to any stable and open a book (name is in readme) this will trigger a script menu that lets you set your settings, call a horse using a spell/shout which is easy for shorcuts.

So combining that will the list I made previous it makes for far better roaming experience with horses & followers / camping / hunting.

Right I need to do more constructive things like work ...........

Hi, how can I delete a huge clay vase placed by devs in my home in Windhelm? Everytime I enter the house the vase is spinning all over and destroys all placed decoration. I tried markedfordelete command but it doesn't work :/

[viper[cww] 14]

Even if that did it work, it would respawn everytime you came back. You need to use the creation kit, delete it and then make your esp plugin.

[sudayev 27]

aww shucks... there an option, pushing the vase back to the workshop room with enchanter and alchemy tables and locking the door. The vase should stay there locked :)

I also created and positioned a few extra chests in my home, wonder if the are safe though, hmm ?

My character specialises in block and light armor, I have been rewarded with the Shield Of Solitude recently and I was wondering if my character will make a good use of the shield since this shield belongs to heavy armor skill ?

Means you can raise your heavy armour skill along with your light, depending on what takes the hit.

You will lose out on some of the Light perks but there is a mod to allow use of not all Light armour.

Oh boy, they are including some of their epicness from the "What if" scenarios into the game:
