The Swaggening

Finished the Skyrim video! Sadly I couldn’t find any reason to insert any animation into it… but I did put in plenty of m4d video editing skillz to make it more than just gameplay video with nothing going on. Now I’m copying over another Skyrim session to see if it merit’s any value, so far I always seem to find something worth keeping.

Of course, it’s my vacation now! I don’t plan to spend all of it doing video work and fondling my Steam Deck… I’m just gonna take it day by day, and enjoy it my way. It’s time to detox a bit, and enjoy life.

Farewell To a Couple Hundred Gigs

There I was… Enjoying some cocoa and sifting through some video footage (as is tradition) when suddenly I reach a point where I can export a video! I went back to some more of the Skyrim footage, and fashioned together a small montage of crazy moments from one of the livestreams. Sadly this is another video without any animation, but I’m ok with going classic for this one! Then there was the NieR footage, and looking that over again I didn’t see much to really animate… so I finished that one up too! Two more videos added to the massive lineup!

Meanwhile… In My Weekend Land

I wasn’t really feeling it this weekend. Still feeling jetlagged from the last work week, and the cold dark weather doesn’t seem to be helping me want to stay awake. I’ve been taking it easy these last couple days, returning to Skyrim which is basically a comfort food game at this point. I played a little at lunch the other day, piloting my TARDIS around Skyrim, and that was enough for me to cause shenanigans on my desktop version.

I keep meaning to sit down and play Special Edition now that it has plenty of mods to garner my interest, but the plans I have in store for the build would probably take me a couple days to prepare. :v So for the time being I’ll settle with Oldrim from time to time when I feel the need to throw my melons at people.

Or salad I guess.

Getting Skyrim (Oldrim) to run on a 144hz G-Sync Display

I sat down today and put some time aside to fix my Skyrim on the new laptop. My new ROG has a 144hz G Sync display, and Skyrim doesn’t play nice with high frame or refresh rates. I followed this guide and it did the trick. The local wildlife no longer has seizures around me, and I no longer randomly swim in midair.

Evening Open Thread

Tried to do a Bayonetta livestream tonight but it failed miserably. For some reason it turns into a black screen after a particular cutscene when starting on a new game. So instead of sciencing it out I went with Plan B (Skyrim), still unable to escape the platinum curse…. until I pick them up again next time. The weekend is over and it’s time to get back into the working mindset. My tea is prepped, my lunch is set, my clothes are laid out, and my money is where my mouth is. I’ll have my weird dreams and begin a day of productivity and errands… and that’s the story I’m sticking to. :trollface:

Something tells me that I’ll be having some fabulous dreams tonight… I know I had a dream of some sort last night, but I don’t remember it.. Judging by the cold sweat I woke up in this morning I’m not sure if I want to remember or not. :zorak:

The things that I see when I close my eyes…
