MCM Settings

The Magic is in the Details

WARNING

**DO NOT** make any changes to the MCM settings until you see the message "MUSEUM LIST BUILDING COMPLETE" appear in the notifications area of your screen.

  • When reading the MCM setting below, we are using the format that was developed for FOMOD settings. As such, it needs to be read slightly differently for MCM purposes.
    • Checkboxes indicate settings that are toggled (IE, On or Off). These should match the state of the checkbox shown.
    • Radio Buttons list a setting that requires changing. It is always On, but needs to have it's setting changed to the indicated values.
NOTE

Adept Difficulty is the target level for the Guide. Keep this information in mind when making changes to your MCM settings.

NOTE

The below settings are recommendations **only**. You are free to set any MCM value you wish to any value that you wish without losing official support on the Discord Channel. It's Your Game. Enjoy it!

Frostfall (MCM)

Note

if you are not planning on using Frostfall, you still need to enable it and allow all start-up scripts to run before disabling it for the game.

Note

even when the mod is disabled, certain frostfall effects may still be applied to your character. These can be corrected by turning it back on, waiting for your character to get fully warm, and then disabling it again.

Note

if you are planning on the Vanilla start: **DO NOT** activate Frostfall in the MCM until you have entered Helgen Fort. You **WILL** freeze to death otherwise during the cart ride.

These settings should by set AFTER you have created your character and left the ASLAL Starting Cell (IE, you have chosen your start by speaking with the Mara statue and gone to sleep).

Immersive Equipment Display

While in the game world:

  1. Press RSHIFT + BACKSPACE
  2. Select VIEW.
  3. Select Gear Nodes.
  4. Select Global.
  5. Select Preset.
  6. Select Lexy's LOTD - IED Preset.
  7. Select Apply.
  8. Exit the IED Setup Menu.

Out-of-Game Setup

Seriously. Almost. Done.

Once you completed the MCM Setup and exited the Live Another Life Cell (IE, you went to sleep after choosing your start type):

  1. Save your game (because this is always a good idea).
  2. Exit to MO2
  3. Perform the following tweaks:

PapyrusTweaks.ini

[Experimental]
bIgnoreMemoryLimit = true
bSpeedUpNativeCalls = true

ENJOY SKYRIM

Seriously. Go play the game. For real.

Start the game through MCM using the SKSE launcher, load up that game you just saved a moment ago...

... and play.

Or, be like the rest of us and start adding crap in. But from here, you're on your own.
