Guest, did you like the last podcast notification?? Well here's the second one, and for the third podcast! Yep. This Thursday 8-8-24 at 7pm Central
Go here to check out his podcast thread for info on topics and links!Go into the FoH discord and find the Happy Time Fun Hour channel and give it a listen!
Is there any point in grabbing the special edition to replace a graphically modded PC version?
I've heard that it's barely better than the vanilla game, and worse if you've already modded with high res textures and such. It's a free download for me, but obviously I'll steer clear if there aren't any benefits to be found.

Not yet, SKSE has to be updated to work with Special Edition first as SkyUI depends on it for some stuff. There are a few versions kicking around that sorta bridge the gap in the meantime, try this: Limited Working Version of SkyUI for PC • /r/skyrim

Yes, it should be running a similar updated engine to what Fallout 4 has.

Yeah, the memory thing is fixed by moving to 64 bit. They kept the old Skyrim scripting system instead of using the F4 system (and having to rewrite all of Skyrim's scripts) so that part is still just as finicky as ever.

This version of SkyUI works well, and has the warning message removed:
Dropbox - SkyUI - Ported Version 2.2 -Removed Warrning-855-1-0.zip
As far as which version is better, I like the changes in the new version, there are various graphical improvements and a few behind the scenes changes will allow for mods that just weren't possible on the old version.

The biggest 'hidden' graphical improvement I've noticed from just a few short minutes in game is that OUTDOOR SHADOWS DON'T TICK EVERY 6 SECONDS!! I always thought this was ridiculously de-immersing and never found a fix for it (one of you will probably link something that changes it) but now the base game has continually slowly moving sunlight shadows. Frankly I'm surprised it's not in that brodual video!

There were settings in one of the INI files to smooth it out a bit but never actually fix it.

In my original play through I went 2 handed which I loved. Trying to mix it up now and go dual wield with a bit of magic. The dual wielding seems super awkward. Is it just me? Not loving it.
Also made a pure caster but spells not scaling suck. I didn't see scaling mentioned in the two mods linked does either of them scale the spells?

There's a mod that adds % scaling to spells. It's very simple and makes spell casting not tedious.

Same here. Hell it still blows me away. I think I spent 30 hours down there and still didn't see everything.
