Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. To prepare the baking tin, spray non-stick baking spray into the pan so the sweetrolls will come out easily. Do not overspray.

In a large bowl cream the butter, sugar, vanilla extract and maple syrup together until pale and creamy. Add the eggs one and a time and mix well.

Sift in the self-raising flour and cinnamon then add the milk and stir gently until a smooth batter forms.

Fill the prepared muffin tray with the batter, filling each well nearly to the top and place in the pre-heated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown (a skewer inserted should come out clean when cooked thoroughly). Set aside and allow to cool completely while you prepare the frosting.

For the Sweet Rolls: 180g / 1 Cup Butter (Room Temperature) 175g / ¾ Cup White Caster Sugar 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup 2 Eggs (Room Temperature) 250g / 2 Cups Self-Raising Flour [MEASURE 250g ON A SCALE] 2 Teaspoons Ground Cinnamon 125ml / ½ Cup Milk

For the Frosting: 200g / 1 Cup Cream Cheese 55g / ¼ Cup Butter 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract 125g / 1 Cup Icing/Confectioners Sugar

Remove the rolls from the tin and let cool completely, about 1 hour.

•Carefully slice the puffy top off . Turn the cake upside down so that the cut top is now the bottom.

Cut a small hole in the top of the cake that’s about 1cm deep and 1cm across.

Dip roll into glaze once, remove, wait 10 minutes, then dip a second time. Let sit for a minute.

•Enjoy your sweetrolls!

Hello, /r/Skyrim!

It's me again with another beatiful Minomi's art. I hope you will not be very angry with me for sharing it here :)

This is Google Drive folder containing full size images both individually and wrapped in a single zip file. Feel free to use or share them.

She would be really glad to hear any feedback from every Skyrim fan so you are welcome!

Best wishes and take care :)

This actually reminds me of a question I wanted to ask the sub about "video game tourism" and if anyone's done it. It started with Fallout 4 which made me want to go visit Boston which I've never been to and it made me wonder if tourism to the city will grow as a result of the game's popularity.

Recently I looked at some photography of Iceland and some of the shots look like real life Skyrim. Now I really want to travel to Iceland :-o

Hello, I'm the guy that made the track.

Actually, the software I use is an emulation of the sound chip on the nes.

With a little tweaking you could put my song on an actual 8-bit Nintendo entertainment system. So yes, It's as "true 8-bit" as you can come I'm afraid. Download famtracker here!

Edit: I'd like to add that Mario 3 uses very similar drum samples which is (in my opinion) a step clearer than mine are. So much for "true 8-bit".

This is my last skill-focused submission, I promise. But man I love a cool chart. This is in the spreadsheet as well.

dun (adj.) O.E. dunn "dingy brown, dark-colored," perhaps from Celt. (cf. O.Ir. donn "dark;" Gael. donn "brown, dark;" Welsh dwnn "brownish"), from PIE *donnos, *dusnos "dark."

bos n (plural bossen, diminutive bosje, diminutive plural bosjes) wood, forest Zij ging wandelen in de bossen. She went walking in the woods.

Thus far into the survey:

The average Dragonborn is a Nord with black hair whose preferred weapon is both a sword & shield combo and sneaking around with a bow, making him a stealth warrior build of sorts. He overwhelmingly favors the Imperial Legion, he completes all four guild story arcs, and his favorite armor is Nightingale (though Daedric was #1 for a long while and Ebony and DB armor are both very highly ranked too). He is a swordsman first and foremost, but certainly not above using a bow when the situation calls for it. Most of the time, he's a hardass who does nothing else but focus on the task at hand and always gets the job done, but he's also a guy that can tell you a lot of awesome stories at a pub if you were to buy him a drink or two.

Edit: Surprises within the survey:

1. A lot of Khajiit characters. By far the second most picked race, next to Nord.

2. The Empire is beating the Stormcloaks in popularity by quite a large margin. I know this is reddit, but I was expecting it to be a closer race than that. Come on my Stormcloak brethren, represent.

3. Warrior-thief is by far the most played character type. It has nearly double the votes of the next highest rated type.

4. Not many red haired people. I personally find red hair sexy, though I normally go with black or dark brown like most people.

Unsuprises in the Survey:

1. Nord was the most popular race

2. Swords and bows are the most popular weapon

3. Nightingale, Daedric, Ebony, and Dragon armor are the most popular

4. The Dragonborn completes all four guild quests

5. Black, blonde, and brown hair were the most common

Bethesda announced their creators club, basically their version of paid mods, without actually saying the words paid mods. You submit new mods and content to bethesda, they pay the modders and users have to pay for content. And already created mods are not eligible. Most of us are extremely skeptical of this whole thing, since the steam paid mods thing failed spectacularly. I'm sure that bethesda will take in almost all of the money paid to them and creators probably won't get much. I personally think they are getting lazy so that they don't have to make dlc themselves, pay modders to create the dlc and I'm sure the fine print probably says something along the lines of 'you submit the mods, we now own them.'

The reason that it looks like the quality is low is because he was in the Whiterun instance while being outside it and it would be a real waste of resources to do high quality on something that you will only be able to occasionally spot from inside Whiterun.

Don't get Nexus Mod Manager. Get Mod Organizer. It takes more time to get used to and understand, but it will save you time and frustration in the long run.

There are plenty of tutorials on reddit, Nexus and YouTube to help you figure it out.

Pay $15 for what steam is charging $50. I've never had a problem with g2a and for a dollar more you can buy "security" for a guarenteed working steam key.

Steam doesn't get a cent, you save money. Win win.

I don't have gamepass, but that sounds kind of unique for a gamepass game.

This is one of the start scenarios from the mod Alternate Start - Live Another Life. I just recently discovered it again after reading about Death Alternative - Your Money or Your Life, which also seems to be pretty awesome!

Get Death Alternative: Your Money or Your Life. Instead of dying, an event is triggered - which is wholly customizable in MCM. You can change the settings so that the chance of an enemy encounter is 100% and that all your stuff is looted (based on value). In that case, I would recommend keeping a very cheap outfit in your inventory, because what your wearing will be stolen too, and you'll be left naked. (And weaponless.) You can of course also set it that there are some friendly events also - saved by an adventurer or priest.

What I like about it, is can be as brutal consequence-wise as dead is dead, without having to start over at level 0. Having to grind those first 15 levels or so over and over would just make me bored with the game, and not want to play.

A couple of suggestions to streamline the process for next time.

1. Put the backs on a second page in reverse order and use double-sided printing to print them on the backs of the bookmarks.
2. Transparent shipping tape is an inexpensive way to laminate bookmarks.

Sure you can, if you're downloading them elsewhere. Word of warning though. USE MOD ORGANIZER. Trying to trouble shoot mods when you can't be online would be a nightmare without it. With Mod organizer, you can easily deactivate (most) mods as if they were never installed. Much easier to deal with than manually weeding them out, or Nexus Mod Manager's method.

If you take an extra few minutes to learn how to use Mod Organizer, it will handle mods just as well as NMM just a thousand times better. With Mod Organizer, your data folder will remain untouched so you never have to worry about overwriting textures and ruining your game when trying to replace them and such. It's very much worth it and I very highly recommend it.

Hmm....looks very similar.

I'm a complete noob when it comes to making mead (or any booze). Google it and you'll find a lot of expert advice. Basically I just got a carboy from Amazon ($15 for a gallon one), and also ordered some rose hips and ale yeast because I couldn't find that stuff in the grocery store. Then it was:

Boil some water, dissolve 40oz or so of honey in it. Add some flavor stuff (box of blackberries, cinnamon stick, 2 tbsp rose hips, tsp of cloves) let it cool, add a packet of ale yeast, put it in the carboy, fill it almost all the way, and come back in two weeks. Strain it, drink it.

I'm sure the Internet will give you better advice, but that worked fine for me.

Here's the carboy I got: https://www.amazon.com/Home-Brew-Ohio-Fermenter-Stopper/dp/B014T3LHFA/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=carboy&qid=1571874288&sr=8-4

There you go, think it's maybe through a 3rd party or something

• Frostfall - Allows you to experience the effects of the cold, you can make it as easy or as hard as you want.

• Death Alternative - Your Money or Your Life - Alternative events instead of dying, great fun.

• Lock Overhaul - for when you couldn't be arsed to pick a lock, and just chooses to bash it open.

• Amazing Follower Tweaks - allows you to have more than one follower and lets you manage them, including their outfits.

• Convenient Horses - so that your followers doesn't run after you like slaves and rides instead.

• Complete Crafting Overhaul - If you intend to level smithing, it allows you to melt down armour and weapons for the metals.

• Alternative Crafting System - If you don't intend to level smithing, allows you to buy upgrades from the smiths.

Given there isn't anyone in the vanilla game or expansions with that name, one of the mods you reinstalled adds this NPC whether telling you or not.

After a google, I found a post on another website with the same problem (http://aminoapps.com/page/tesamino/870976/modded-skyrim-freaked-me-out), but so far no solution.

Looks like you might have to add/remove your mods one at a time till you find which one adds her. Then delete that mod and never use it again as it's clearly broken/badly written.

I'm one of those losers that reads every book in the game.

The source of that post came from a poorly written article that had a number of inaccuracies. Here's what Pete had to say about it. I'd love to believe there will be spears. But unless they're just trying really hard to cover up a surprise, it won't happen.

No he made the right choice. Fallout New Vegas was never as compelling to me as Fallout 3.

and Metacritic agrees

I'm with you 100% on this. When I was first sent to the Ratway by Brynjolf to find the Thieves Guild hangout, I mistakenly made my way to the Warrens. I fought through a bunch of creepy bastards in a dungeon reminiscent of Condemned, only to end up confronted by the pitiable madman. His remarks regarding his experiences were somewhat vague, yet in their simplicity they painted such a vivid and lovely picture that I almost imagined it as though I were present at the battles myself. Such a genuinely interesting character, he always stuck with me after that.

> DarkX85: I can confirm that the Black Star can trap lesser souls, trapped a skeever and a spider with it. Black is superior.

Seems that way if you trust DarkX85 on GameFAQs

Edit: DarkX85 was incorrect, if you decide to corrupt the star it can only hold black souls.

This was in use before toon town, and that is not the etymology. It was very common in EQ 1 at the very least, and possibly earlier.

Respectfully, I would disagree and say wait until the game is released.

Your hands and weapon should not (I say should because I havent played it) be rendered on your HUD. The rendering precedence that you talk about (to avoid clipping with world-objects) doesn't flatten these objects onto your hud. Instead they render them separately in most games, or use a fixed perspective.

I'm not saying that we cannot see our kills in first person (although in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjqsYzBrP-M at 1:31 and 1:42 you can see first person kills) but with it being a pre-canned animation there's no reason they CAN'T have them. They know exactly how much volume is required for an animation and can avoid allowing animations that will clip anything.

Again, I dont KNOW this. I only do programming as a hobby but if >I< could do it, and if Bethesda has moved away from the restrictions imparted by their older engines, there's no reason they shouldn't be able to. Even if you don't think a hobbyist could do it, you could look at Dark Messiah or Zeno Clash for other examples of it working on an engine that gives your first person objects (weapons, hands and so on) rendering precedence.

The 360 gets Skyrim DLC 30 days before PS3 and PC.

Edit: I should clarify. According to Gamespot, the first two DLC will be 360-exclusive for 30 days. However, Todd Howard, the head talky man for Bethesda, said recently that they want to focus on fewer, larger add-ons. Hypothetically, they may release only two DLCs for Skyrim.

I'm stocked and ready

There's a random fantasy name generator Android app (not sure about iOS) called Fang that has a Elder Scrolls section, it does a pretty good job of coming up with names for all the races https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.crystalpeak.fantasynamegenerator

It should be able to stomp it unmercifully. You may actually achieve a new dimension of clarity with a 560ti. Here are some benchmarks comparing a 560ti to a GTX 260 http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/318?vs=330

Well, you can look at some budget PCs from Tom's Hardware to get ideas: $500 from September and $600 from December. Use the $500 system as a base, get rid of the dedicated graphics card and swap the processor for an AMD A8-3850 and bump the RAM up to DDR3 1600, and you're at $400 with a system that can deftly outperform any console. It won't play at 1920x1200 with all the fancy gizmos enabled, but at 720p and console-quality graphics settings it'll definitely be smoother than your Xbox360 or PS3. And you'll be able to play any damn thing on Steam, as well as modding to your heart's content.

I definitely choose Karita, the bard at Windpeak Inn in Dawnstar. I was extremely disappointed after meeting her and learning I couldn't marry her. Look at her, just look at her! [Link]

Since there’s a few who are curious, here is how I did it. I used a piece of software to repeatedly send Skyrim the screenshot command. In this case I used Autotkeys. Then I moved the screenshots into a Photoshop file using File>Scripts>Load Files into Stack. The last step is to change the layer style on all the images to “Lighten.” You can accomplish this quickly by doing it to the first one, then copy and pasting the style to the rest. There are easier ways to compile images; however, this allows me to easily remove pieces in individual frames if I wish.

In this case I compiled 543 screenshots, but that’s probably more than is necessary. The minimum required interval for smooth star-trails will depend on the field of view used, however. I’m sure one could get away with longer intervals than one second.

I use nearly the exact technique for real life star-trails. Here is one of my favorites

I love the way that looks close up, but make sure you know what you're losing to gain that quality - shadows further away won't be drawn. Load up the 4 images on this thread for fShadowDistance side by side to compare what happens:

Mod Organizer! http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/1334/?

Allows you to create profiles, and has mod isolation (basically, prevents mods from writing to the main Data directory). I don't trust it myself but theoretically that is what you're looking for.

I would avoid Steam for your source of mods, however. Pretty sure those mods aren't compatible.

If you're serious about writing, find yourself a teacher. Someone whose work you admire and whose time allows for one-on-one lessons. The next best thing is reading books on writing. (Stephen King's On Writing is a good place to start.) But this comes a distant second to actual, expert feedback.

Don't expect to get better from uninformed practice. That would be like expecting to become a souffle master after spending one thousand hours frying bacon. And don't expect random advice to do you much good either. That would be like asking sex advice from your fellow virgins.

You could use Mod Organizer as your mod manager instead of Nexus Mod Manager or Steam Workshop, and it allows you to create multiple profiles for your characters so their save files are separate. It also has the added benefit of allowing you to have separate mods lists for each profile that a save manager could not do.

Here's my obligatory evangelism for Mod Organizer. Sorry in advance for not answering the question. I am trying to help by prevention.

You should try Mod Organizer. It keeps every mod in a separate directory, outside of skyrim if you want, and then creates a skyrim/data structure in memory when you run the game. Your dir stays clean, and you don't have file overwrite problems.

It may have taken hours and hours to fine tune your setup with NMM, but I WILL GUARANTEE that it will only take several minutes to drag n drop files into the right order in Mod Organizer.

In this situation, you would be unchecking boxes until you found the culprit.

>without dying a single time.

Scrap that, and add Death Alternative - Your Money or Your Life

In short, different things happen instead of you dying. You can be rescued by an adventurer/priest etc, you can be captured and held for ransom, left for dead etc.

All of it though, is customizable via the menu. You can leave it at roughly 50/50, or you can make it hard as set it to say 90 or 100 chance of an enemy encounter. How much they rob off you is also customizable - you can set it to them taking everything, with some stuff recoverable via quest marker (getting it back from the bandit etc.) or everything lost outright. (You can set quest items as safe.)

What I like about this mod is that you can make it similar to having to start over, without having to grind through lower levels again if you die. I really like it.

Sure thing.

In his memoir On Writing, King posits that the essence of horror is a familiar object / presence / occurrence transplanted into a totally unexpected and unsettling context.

Take a smiling clown (a regular one, not Pennywise) in the afternoon at the circus. Assuming for a moment that you do not harbour a deep fear of clowns, there's nothing remotely threatening about it.

Now it's midnight, and you're getting ready to settle into bed. You reach to close the blinds, and suddenly there's that same clown's face hovering outside your window, grinning in at you in the dead of night.

Made a lot of sense to me. Horror isn't so much about things completely outside our experiences, but rather things we recognize behaving in ways we'd never want them to.

Edit: looks like the original "clown at midnight" quote was by Lon Chaney (appropriate), and King referenced it in the book I read.

I think people give Lydia too much shit. My Lydia is a badass. Of course, she is the "Bijin Warmaidens" Lydia so she looks better... But anyway! I have a story about my own incompetence that lead to the demise of my own housecarl.

I have Death Alternate: Your Money or Your Life installed.

We're battling a group of bandits. I get killed.

Instead of dying, the mod makes it so that you're captured/imprisoned/rescued etc.

I narrowly escaped the bandit camp, but she was no where to be found.

I wait, I fast travel...Nothing.

Go back to Dragonsreach.

There, lying on the floor dead, is Lydia. An audible sigh of shock and sadness come over me.

Until I remember that I have the power of the console. ;)

Stat Page

Cicero tops the list at 100

Aela is next at 97

Eola is next with 78

Brelyna, Faendal, and Farkas of all people are next with Sneaks in the 60s. Likely as not that Farkas's armor makes him shit at sneaking.

The DB Initiates didn't make the list, but they're likely in the 80s or higher.

I have a 128GB SSD drive for my OS and data I need really fast access to (like Skyrim when I want to play it with best graphics). I also have a 2x2TB 7200rpm drives in RAID1 where I keep my data. When I want to play Skyrim in all it's glory I copy it to my SSD and play. When I know I won't be playing anytime soon and/or need to free up some high-speed space I just delete it from the SSD (it still stays on my regular RAID). Obviously it has some trade offs but whatever nothing that would bug me too much. Also maybe you could have a look at hybrid drives I'm planning on getting one to try it out as soon as I have some extra cash.

That's pretty helpful. I hadn't seen some of them.

I put together a collective list of trianing techniques on a google doc, I'll add these to it and credit you, if you don't mind.

The base Special Edition received an update yesterday, whether you got the Anniversary Edition or not.

It is why this sub has been concerned about the "AE-pocalypse" since the update was announced in August.

There is good news for SKSE mods, there has already been an update to get some mods like SkyUI back in business, but they are still working on the more intricate ones that used things like the address library.

>Full game that will cost $45 USD

49.99 USD for the full version.

>Only reason to buy it is for fishing

Current SE owners get fishing for free.

Minimum requirements are on the Steam store page: > MINIMUM:

> OS: Windows 7/Vista/XP PC (32 or 64 bit)
Processor: Dual Core 2.0GHz or equivalent processor
Memory: 2GB System RAM
Hard Disk Space: 6GB free HDD Space
Video Card: Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 512 MB of RAM
Sound: DirectX compatible sound card

When you have your new laptop, you could use Can You Run It to check whether it meets them. If you want us to tell you now, it would be helpful if you post the model you're planning to get, or better yet, its specs.

I have an article here that talks about it a bit...

Basically, what you need to take away from it is that a Blu-Ray holds more data overall and reads faster at the baseline speed, in fact I believe it's about 3.5x faster than a dvd's baseline. (ish)

However, because the blu-ray reader needs to be closer to the disc, the blu-ray is limited to just 2x the baseline on a PS3, as opposed to 12x on an xbox. (meaning the xbox's data rate is ~1.5x a ps3's) This accounts for the compression factor of ~1.5 (3.8/6=1.57)

This means that the PS3 actually will pull less data down per second than an xbox will, which is the reason most xbox games can be played as soon as the disc is inserted and the same PS3 games require an install, this is because the PS3 would be unable to load the data fast enough to play the game, the solution to this in games where you don't have the mandatory install is to compress the data less, so the system doesn't have to spend the time unpacking it, allowing you to play the game as it was meant to be played. Interestingly, the dvd's speed gets slower the closer it is to the center, meaning that in some cases compression on disc and decompression by the xbox yield the best results... but that's tangential (pardon the pun).

Tl;DR: Blu-rays can't spin as fast for safety reasons, so they read more slowly, this means that PS3 games must have less compression in order to play, and thus take up more space on disc.

Apparently it's a bug that's been happening to a few people.

However, since there are plenty of dragons, you should have enough souls at the end to max everything out.

Just sayin'.

The thing about these Sun Chips bags is that you pretty much need a high-heat industrial compost to get them to degrade. Putting them into a home compost does nothing.

Sun Chips' own guidelines say that you need about "14 weeks" in a compost heated to 130 degrees Fahrenheit in order for the bags to break down.

It actually does happen on a public computer (if Tor exit nodes can be considered public).

Proof.

edit: Although the screenshot I posted has "where to find" instead of "where to f" in the search bar, daedra hearts still show up when searching "where to f".

The mod is not just meshes and textures and comes with an ESP, so just dumping the archive's contents into the Data folder and expecting it to work won't work. You need to enable the ESP (3DNPC.esp) in Data Files in the launcher. Also, I highly do not recommend manually installing mods manually as it's tedious and there's a much higher probability of something being messed up resulting in completely reinstalling the game. You should really consider a mod manager like Mod Organizer (MO) or Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) at least.

Yeah, but smartphones are almost always a bastardization of the IP unless it has close oversight from the parent company. Remember Playstation all-stars on the Google play store? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.playstation.allstars.island&amp;hl=en

Literally littered with Coca-Cola branding, which is absolutely disgusting and sad. It's completely shitting on their mascots.

We have a lot of DLC, Mario Kart 8, SM4SH, Hyrule Warriors, etc. Not only that but they rejected microtransactions for multiplayer games such as Splatoon, and priced normal DLC fairly. I'd rather have Nintendo not follow industry trends if the trends right now are rotten.

Try these guides. Very well written, beautifully structured, they cured my restart-itis way back in 2012.

It's nice to have playing in the background while you do other stuff.

I literally just google searched the image(google chrome feature)

If you're not using chrome then you can go here and click the camera to the right of the search bar and copy and paste the image url.

I'm not sure if it's released in any country yet, but here's how to get it right now. :)

Is it Catalyst?

To be save, head to ATI's driver site and enter in the info for your specific card once you've nailed down what it is.

Not sure what their driver situation is like in terms of beta drivers (I've got an nVidia) but see if there's a manual driver update available.

If the card is clean, drivers are updated, and you're still getting this issue, grab Speedfan and check your temps while playing. If you have to, up the speed on the video card fan and see if that helps.

If you're still having the issue at that point, I'd either look at replacing/reseating the stock heatsink on the card, or getting a new card altogether if you aren't comfortable with that.

Someone else made the skins, which is the Skyrim "menu look" in Rainmeter. I just downloaded the file and adjusted some strings so they lead to the correct paths and show the correct information. It's a fun way to get acquainted with whatever coding language they use.

Here's more info on Rainmeter and what it is.

Edit: Check out /r/rainmeter for more information too.

I edited my original comment with links to the materials. You need Rainmeter if you don't have it already.

> nexus mod manager

That is the second worst way to manage mods (only Steam Workshop is worse) - use Mod Organizer instead, it's much, much better. For more information on modding, read this Beginner's Guide, courtesy of /r/skyrimmods.

Not to be mean, but you should start using Mod Organizer over NMM. At least, you should start using it over NMM before you start doing heavy modding. MO is a bit more complex and a bit harder to use, though, so I suggest watching Gopher's tutorials on it.
