[Solved] How is Skyrim running for everyone with patch 1.4?

Forum Games General : PC Gaming [Solved] How is Skyrim running for everyone with patch 1.4?

I was curious if the patch resolved issues for the majority of people? I know that it enhanced my performance and enabled me to disable the various mods I was using to get better performance. I am now down to texture mods and a few game enhancing mods such as the blacksmithing enhancements, etc.

Can anyone confirm on high res texture pack? Did it happen or was it something else?

Patch 1.4 worked well until...


I was strolling around outside of Riften, and out of the sky

Flies....


A NINJA BEAR.




Not joking. I was laughing so hard my character died because I couldn't react.

It's a bit hard to discern the high resolution pack from Bethesda with so many other amazing texture mods already in place. lol I'll report back once I play a bit more.

awesome screens, exactly what I was looking for. :)
the improvement is most noticeable on all those stone surfaces, I'm holding off on doing the update till the servers are able to give me that 1mb download rate.

I definitely noticed a difference with the texture pack. Well worth the download.
