Changelogs
Version 1.6.1
Fixed an MCM issue
Version 1.6.0
Restored functionality from LE which relied on SKSE:
Boot/barefoot detection for the player
SkyUI MCM with configurable settings
Optional plugin for ENB users that bypasses an ENB bug which incorrectly applies effects to transparent alpha blended decals.
Credit to Korodic for finding the fake glowmap method, since alpha testing was simply not an option (horrible artifacts).
Version 1.5.3
- Fixed the Giant's footprints not showing up.
- Improved code that resets player footprints after changing race (werewolf, etc.).
• The same code now applies to NPCs with prints as well, so NPC race changing is now correctly supported.
- Improved code that resets player footprints on savegame load.
• The player's effect now kills itself on savegame load, instead of the main player alias script killing it, which is slightly cleaner.
- Improved the manner in which unsupported races are ignored by the effect-attaching script.
• The unsupported actor is no longer permanently ignored, which has two benefits: it is never stored in your save at any point; if I add support for the actor's race in the future, it is easier to give them the new effect.
• This is retroactive, so the old system will be removed from all existing saves.
- The cloak that attaches the effects, which has been "pulsed" (turned on/off) for several versions, is now active for even less time. It has gone from being active ~20% of the time to being active ~10% of the time. The time between pulses is also slightly less so there should be slightly fewer instances where you notice NPCs without prints yet.
- Fixed the cloak being active immediately upon game load, i.e. before I could manage its status with the main script. This didn't matter before implementing the ignored location/world/interior system, but now meant the cloak was briefly running before it could be shut off for ignored locations.
- Other miscellaneous script fixes and improvements that are not worth enumerating.
Version 1.5.2
- Resaved normal maps in linear BC7. When rushing to convert them for 1.5.1, I inadvertently saved them all as sRGB BC7 which caused slightly incorrect lighting.
Version 1.5.1
- Ported to SSE
- Added several optimizations
• The system that adds footprint effects to NPCs will no longer run in any interiors whatsoever, which unfortunately disables the effect in some ice caves and a few other interiors which have snow. The PC will continue to have prints in these locations however.
• The system will turn off for entire world spaces and locations where the effects for any supported material (snow, ash, etc) are not necessary. This includes places like Riften, Markarth, Solitude, Whiterun and their surrounding exteriors. I will continue to add locations deemed suitable in future updates.
• Footprints on NPCs will now expire after a short duration and they need to be close enough to regain the effect.
- The optimization options from the MCM in 1.0 still remain even though the MCM was removed for SSE. You can configure the limits for NPCs and FX via the console, as well as turn off the system entirely.
- [1.5.1 hotfix] Replaced old texture formats that were causing crashes for some people with new DX11 formats. Specifically, some of the _n files.
- [1.5.1 hotfix] Converted the _h DDS files to a better DX11 format.
