After reaching level ~38 Skyrim had become extremely easy for me. Even on the highest difficulty with PISE enabled. (Yes, yes. I know. Shouldn't have used blacksmithing + enchanting combo.) Luckly, I've found this mod:

http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=4406

And yay! Game's a challenge again! Smile

Currently playing on twice the difficulty of Master (Intense Difficulty 2x.esp) and it's really intense sometimes...

(Don't use it in combination with Deadly Dragons mod. It makes them kill you within 2 secs.) (<-- Nah! My bad. Dragons were deleveled due to some mod. So I encountered Ancient Dragon way too early and didn't know that fleeing was actually the only way in that case.)

PS: You may also want to try Cutthroat Merchants.

I don't think I've bought anything from merchants except some smithing supplies or maybe a couple of ingredients. Making the merchants have ridiculous rates is about as pointless as them only having a few hundred gold I think. No worries though since I hardly use the merchants Smile

Good ol' Koroush Ghazi from Tweakguides.com with his traditional end of year message, making special mention to Skyrim and the TES series in general. Also, he closes with an interesting prediction about the future of the Call of Duty series

That's a pretty interesting point he makes about the TES series being more like first person adventure games in an open world as opposed to an RPG. Smile

Yup I agree, and this is exactly what made Skyrim so incredibly popular. It's pretty accessible gameplay-wise and yet deep at the same time, with a stunning level of detail, engaging quests and tons of interesting locations that constantly suprise the player.

It's a huge matryoshka structure, the ultimate sandbox game that manages to conciliate both the newcomers and the old fans. It wasn't easy to achieve that .

========

SkyBoost revision 3 (an alternative for TESAL; can increase framerate in CPU limited areas even further) has been released (for testing only):

http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1324092-sky-boost-by-alexander-blade/page__st__150__p__19925890#entry19925890

(Make sure to check ReadMe before testing.)

This mod is also nice:

Lush Trees by OpticShooter

It adds more branches to pine trees but in combination with Skyrim Flora Overhaul can literally halve your framerate so beware. The other downside is it increases trees pop-up. so it may be necessary to alter

fTreesMidLODSwitchDist=

to something above 20000. Or at least that's what author says.

Screenshot comparison:

In my experience both of the Lush mods combined give around a 5 FPS decrease in performance. I haven't messed with the viev distance though...

So, I just checked the README. Seems this one doesn't require to install SKSE?

EDIT: Ok I just tested it. Confirmed, it doesn't need SKSE (I guess it's because this isn't a script but a C++ compiled library). Now, the mod itself is great! The game now feels so much smoother. Putting it in numbers I gained around 5-7 fps but the really good advantage is the smoothness when moving and when looking around with the mouse. Recommended.

No, it doesn't require SKSE. It's completely stand-alone. Just put SkyBoost.asi and dinput8.dll to your main Skyrim folder (where TESV.exe resides).

EDIT: Ninja'd. Wink

I must say that this game has received some serious performance upgrades since release. I have gained 10-20 FPS in some areas while I have also installed a bunch of texture mods. It's astonishing really.

Mouse controls feel indeed better now, less "hitchy" than before. Great find, thanks Raccoon Smile (btw, welcome back!)
