Skyrim: Elite Edition (PS3 Skyrim Mod Pack - Customizable XMB Mod System)

i cache the *.bsa files too... but after some times ( sooner/ later ) the textures are bad again..... have to quit and load the game again to make it better look again...

Sounds like the texturing is not proper, this texture problem only happens because of .dds textures. Im going to be testing my .ddx tool tonight, tried to wait for josh but he seems to be busy still, ill post some results soon.

i cache only SKYRIM - TEXTURES.BSA
its original file without dds files inside
at post #56 are 2 pic's they are from unmodded elite edition installed extern (left one) and from fully cached original game (right one)

Death_Dealer have you looked at files that I linked at post #58? still need help with russian fonts

I saw the post, all you can see is .bsa archives. extract some images then post a picture, i have not had the time to download the mod to look for myself yet.

So i tested my compressor and something with the compression type is off. Nothing ive done wrong, my extractor works 100% compression is a tricky thing. Alot of advanced option can be used to better compress your file but it also run people like me in a loop. I need to try a bunch of different things with the more advanced options. I have tried a lot of them already but none have gotten a loadable .ddx yet.. If nothing from the base library of compression for ddx works for recompression im not sure what ill do just yet: / lol i'll just have to do some more researching.
 
I cannot wait to check out that ddx Tool, It will be the most Important tool for all ddx supported games, and one of a kind.
 
Ok i found out what was going on^_^ Havnt fixed the issue but the problem was the creation of the images:) it should be a simple fix, i recompressed the images my extractor gets and it creates a 100% identical ddx that loads ingame!! This means my ddx tool is fully operational, as far as compression and other various things. I would post a screenshot but there the base images, so you wont be able to tell i have done anything. My proof this is working will come when i get the image creation correct on the dds side before compression. Just wanted to update people on my work since there has been some interest. And as far as a public release of the tool this is something i am always weary of for apparent reasons. I will be releasing mods that have been converted from dds-ddx and then packed to work with Skyrim:EE. It will provide better mod support for our project and this is why i started my endevours into ddx in the first place. It was actually a request from josh, was a small side project for a bit then it started to pick up quite a bit of traction. When i get a loadable example that is not a vanilla image i'll be sure to drop by and post some screenshots. Oh and just an interesting fact ddx's vary from game to game, enough for each game to need it own version of extractor and compressor. This version is for skyrim ps3 specifically. Dont know if xbox versions differ from ps3.^_^

Death_Dealer if you release the DDX Tool or not, Thanks for putting it into consideration for people like me. (Hobby Modder); Mod offline games for fun.
 
Youre installation guide did not work for me at all.
At first i did it wrong because i followed a guide of installation on http://www.ps3hax.net that was not complete.
I installed the Elite Mod as i would any game, not putting it on the location that my Skyrim game was. When i did this i got a meny in the XMB Screen with Themes, bonus but not mods. I deleted it all and followed youre instructions, installed gamesonic, tried with Iris Manager, but none of them gave me any extra menu with Mods or others on my XMB screen. When i start the game it says Insert GOLD to play. it works fine, but the entire point of being able to add mods and install them is not there. I deleted it all and tried again but with no luck. Now ive just given this up, i cant see anybody explaining how youre mod is doing anything to the loadorder or how its putting it in the correct order by default. The mod feature in youre program was just for installing mods? would it also work with texture mods that needed to overwrite other mods?
If Elite Edition is only for installing esp files, than i would rather just but them in the right folder my self than installing youre mod, and tweeking the eboot.

Webman and multiman loads the EXTRA content for me, have you tried that? Also texture mods do not work unless you edit your skyrim - textures.bsa. There are some things were working on to fix that issue, also i have a DDX tool that is almost done. Something tricky with compression i have header creation 100% finished but there are some hidden information somewhere i need to find to get them to load. I can replace a ddx from the official bsa that has been recompresssed with my script and the game will load. But the image will not display. I'm very close. I am working on 3 projects at once right now and MC:EE has been consuming all my attention. Me and J#$H will come back around to this project and polish it up^_^ The loading system was made by J#$H for Skyrim:EE, it does and is more than a simple esp installer. And if your not experienced with modding skyrim, you cant install more than 9 mods without J#$H's system. He's done so much research and testing with it im willing to bet he knows as much as a bethesda devXD.

Hi @Death_Dealer, do you get ddx files fully functional?. If you think that ddx files are ok, but don't load on game please post dds, and ddx to check where is the mistake. If you prefer I can post a dds and ddx with my conversion for compare.

Thanks and great job
 
where do i download this pack? i've been looking for a good skyrim mod pack and this fits what im looking for. (im new to this website too)
 
Sign up required... that's dumb.



Even worse...

I was searching for a lot of time to how i can donwload it... cause i wanna mod my skyrim on ps3, but its hard to find something to do it on a "easy" way, this elite edition isnt avaliable to donwload, since the forum dont acept any more members... thats its a bad deal...
