...He also mentioned that serious problems can arise if unexecuted commands are dropped to virtual memory then the game is shut down before they can execute they have to be retrieved from the virtual memory to the save game. This saving is notoriously unreliable and the stack of pending operations can easily get mixed up on the priority ladder.. I remember! The saving from virtual memory to a saved game is something almost all computer owners have come to know and hate. This is what causes all editions of Windows to bloat and eventually crash. The saved 'game' being the instructions to build the registry the next time Windows is started. The macro vs micro kernel That's some good information, Sniffles. If you have a beefy rig with lots of RAM (>8GB), a way to alleviate this is to turn off Virtual Memory completely. It's also healthier for your SSD if you use one as your primary drive, where Windows defaults to installing the paging file (Virtual Memory). With my last laptop and its 8GB of RAM, I would occasionally get a message about RAM running low because Windows likes to reserve lots of extra RAM even if apps aren't using it and I had no paging file, but when I jumped to 16GB on my current laptop, I've never gotten any sort of message like that and have run Skyrim as flawlessly as most others have experienced, even with heavy texture modding and mods that add scripting. On a slightly different note, I found out from this article today that with DirectX 12 (coming in Windows 10) and AMD's Mantle, a lot of the heavy lifting done by the CPU can be offloaded to the GPU because the CPU will finally be able to use all of its cores to talk to the GPU simultaneously. Until those 2 technologies, only 1 core could talk to the GPU at a time, which is why so many games like Skyrim weren't coded to use more than one CPU core. While our beloved Skyrim won't take advantage of either of these technologies—the game has to be coded for DX12 or Mantle—a future Elder Scrolls game may very well do so. Here's hoping.

Aren't you guys getting a bit off-topic? Sorry to OP. Am just trying to understand how to do what Graykin is doing. Got lost in the little detail of how they all function and ignored the larger picture there is no way in hell they would have had a consensus on anything from word go and of course any group of sensible women would have murdered the guy in his sleep long ago.

Aren't you guys getting a bit off-topic? Yes, apologies for the digression. More double-Vilja, please!

[/quote] It was a never ending process! Usually where I have witnessed the 'rule by consensus' taking place, the only 'winner' who got their way, was the one who argued the longest! Everyone else had given up by then . There is a point where the saner ones agree that the 'discussion' will be continued at a later date! As for being murdered in his sleep, you may have noticed, that there are no pictures of Graykin, sleeping with any of them to be found!

Cerwiden to everyone's astonishment, inspired by a large quantity of mead, suddenly decided to try a popular Nord tradition!

Seyheb. it's 'Wardrobe Manager. v2.2 by Qeezer. (briefly off-topic in order to answer ) I didn't think of that mod as it was abandoned by the author nearly two years ago and is reportedly quite buggy. However I've not tried it.

I'll give it a try soon have it in NMM. It has 9.500 D/Ls and 517 endorsements. it apparently works for PC and NPCs. It's also on 'Skyrim Gems'

On a night with beautiful lights, with two sisters whose affection delights, the adventurers plight, to prevent a big fight, is to give both attention all night! With Sophia serenading just right, emotions do soar to new heights, it must be a sight, hearts beating with might, while hugging both sisters so tight!

I did activate it but although there were no problems per se, there was a lot of lagging, I'm in Solstheim on the cult case. with Vilja, Sofia, Eryniel and Serana(wish she would go like she keeps threatening to do). it seemed as if it would aslo work to some extent with Vilja. There was a dialoogue to 'look at her clothing'. I have unactivated it now due to the lagging.

"Well... if you all really want me to play my flute" Vilja the Elder explained, "then you'll have to help me with my chores, good idea?", she asked everyone on an early Saturday morning. Apparently, everyone thought it was!
