globber | I consoter it a hobbyist os and its a lot easier to run if you aren't reliant on a desktop environment | 19:38:56 |
globber | KDE and gnome can take a while to compile and can have a bunch of dependencies break | 19:39:43 |
globber | I mostly run it as a command line os when I do, which is great for development work and less distracting anyway | 19:40:38 |
| zackhasacat changed their profile picture. | 20:51:21 |
globber | Are all the skyrim loading things in the nightly build or is there another fork I should be following | 22:43:49 |
capocat | Everything is in the latest code | 22:46:27 |
| Discord Bridge invited zimtraucher. | 23:12:03 |
| zimtraucher joined the room. | 23:12:04 |
zimtraucher | Skyrim (SE/AE) is also on GOG without DRM and without forced automatic updates | 23:12:05 |

globber | I was buying the box ath the time half off, for morrowind. oblivion, daggerfall, and all the maps were welcome bonuses | 23:14:27 |
globber | I did make a steam account for skyrim and played it for a bit. I was surprised they gave me special edition for free | 23:16:02 |
globber | But there's days I am trying to keep games off my productivity machines and my spare hardware is quite dated, though I do have one box with a passible GPU sitting unused... | 23:17:56 |
globber | There's a computer store a few hours from me that, last I checked, still has the morrowind boxset with paperback proficies guide packed in for sale, but that was a few years ago | 23:19:39 |
zackhasacat | I bought it there. Sadly certain mods wouldn’t work with it | 23:24:14 |

globber | "A bit" it was skyrim so like 60 hours | 23:45:42 |

zackhasacat | Parallels VMs on mac are amazing. I can run TESCS (with mwse) and it runs like a dream. Think the gaming PC is done | 00:31:50 |
globber | Qemu and friend should also be up to snuff these days but I have not tryed them in ages | 00:36:32 |
zackhasacat | I was always a fan of Virtualbox | 00:40:23 |
zackhasacat | but I think parallels is the highest quality VM | 00:40:32 |
zackhasacat | For mac, anyways | 00:40:40 |
zimtraucher | It's by the far the superior version imo. The way majority of mods work by now though. | 01:04:14 |
zimtraucher | I would say, wait for a sale and buy it on GOG. It gets thrown towards you for a few bucks quite often. | 01:07:04 |
globber | I have a disk copy and openmw has put in a lot of work to make the files loadable I see no urgency to play again till I properly beat oblivion | 01:08:57 |
globber | I am too lazy to get my morrowind play though off the ground first, I'm being really fussy about a few character build details | 01:10:08 |
globber | I'm trying to aim for somewhat efficient leveling while being fairly diagetic with gameplay | 01:13:12 |
globber | I maybe should just commit to pure roleplay mechanics be dammed | 01:13:41 |
S3ctor | Certain mods don’t work with it eh? | 01:40:53 |
S3ctor | Is the implication that the CC crap isn’t included/available? | 01:41:13 |
