SRLE + SkyRe: working with the Reproccer WIP


ipmlj

Question

Update - 1 JUL: This may be the last update regarding SkyRe, the reproccer and merging it with SRLE. I've learned a ton, even made my own patches which was decidely fun.

 

Here's the Bottom Line:

SkyRe is an ambitious and amazingly good mod. However, in its current (final) state 1.3.01 it is just not compatible. It will run, and run pretty darn well for the most part with SRLE thanks to the many patches by Xathra, Gruffy, Raulfin, and many other mod authors. The crafting issues are just too large for me to continue working on it. To really make things compatible, consistent, predictable and sensible, it will take someone with the knowledge and skills to modify the Reproccer. With SkyRe v2 (Perkus Maximus) in development it does not make sense to continue pursuing fixes for 1.3.01. The reproccer does not handle the many recipes in SRLE and SkyRe properly. Resulting in multiple issues such as duplicate recipes, missing perks/mod features, menu issues, etc.. to provide consistent enough gameplay that I've grown accustomed to via Kryptopyr's superb mods. For crafting geeks like myself, its 90% of the enjoyment. 

 

I plan to continue work on my crafting patch for standalone SRLE. Its a much easier task for my current skillset. I'll keep a link here for the standalone patch for those that want to use it.

 

Also, I'll leave these notes up for reference for anyone else that wants to see what they can do with SkyRe and SRLE.

 

A huge thanks to everyone who has contributed help, via patches, guidance, questions along the way. Gimpyone, Thaismule, DanielCoffey, Garfink, Fireundubh (those scripts are a godsend!)..

 

27 JUNE 2014 crafting patch:

 

 

SRLE build updated to Neo's guide as of 27 JUN. I have not yet tested any of the SkyRe patches listed below. However, I have finished and tested the Crafting Patch on SRLE and feel confident enough to share it. I still consider it a beta. There are features I want to add that will take more time. You can find it uploaded in my github..."SR Crafting Patch v##.esp".

 

I highly recommend adding Kryptopyr's Smithing Perks Overhaul_Remade and Updated to a SRLE build (without SkyRe installed). It enhances the crafting menus from Kryptopyr's other mods included in SRLE (WAF, CCF, CCOR) and reworks the smithing skill tree to one that makes sense..(SPO Remade has a few different versions of the skill tree that you can choose from. I prefer the New Skill Tree #2). Perk requirements and faction quest requirements should still work with the new recipes...SPO Remade and Updated is NOT required for this patch.

 

You must have these mods installed for the patch to work. It sorts properly with LOOT. If using BOSS, it goes AFTER these masters:

 

Masters for SRLE Crafting Patch_v09.esp: 
00  Skyrim.esm01  Update.esm02  Unofficial Skyrim Patch.esp  [Version 2.0.4a]03  Dawnguard.esm04  HearthFires.esm05  Dragonborn.esm06  Falskaar.esm07  Wyrmstooth.esp  [Version 1.11]08  Clothing & Clutter Fixes.esp09  Complete Crafting Overhaul_Remade.esp0A  Skyrim Immersive Creatures.esp  [Version v6.5.2]0B  Cloaks - Dawnguard.esp0C  SkyrimCoinReplacerRedux.esp0D  OBIS.esp0E  OBISDB.esp0F  Skyrim Immersive Creatures - DLC2.esp  [Version v6.5.2]10  WetandCold.esp11  WetandCold - Ashes.esp12  WetandCold - Holidays.esp13  aMidianBorn_ContentAddon.esp14  Hothtrooper44_ArmorCompilation.esp15  Cloaks.esp16  Chesko_Frostfall.esp17  1nivWICCloaksCRAFT.esp  [Version 2.3]
 
The masters list above is based on a LOOT load order. If using BOSS, create a BUM rule to load SRLE Crafting Patch_v##.esp AFTER aMidianBorn_ContentAddon.esp. Also you may want to sort masters on SRLE Crafting Patch_v##.esp in TES5 to match your BOSS load order.
 
NOTE: If any of these mods in the required master list (above) get updated/merged, the SR Crafting Patch may need updated IF EDID's change or it introduces new items not covered by the patch. When SIC v7 is released,...it will likely need updated.
 
2nd NOTE: You can change some features of this patch in TES5Edit. However, altering fields that require item EDID's/FORM ID's without esm-ify-ing the masters and loading it in the CK to edit it may break it. (Not a big deal really, just reinstall a fresh copy from github).

 

Why did I make this patch?:

The current reproccer is spotty with creating meltdown recipes. Many items that do not have breakdown recipes in SRLE, will continue to have them missing after using the reproccer. Thus I made the patch for SRLE standalone. I have not tested the reproccer with this patch installed and therefore cannot guarantee the result. (I will be testing soon with SkyRe installed).

 

What does it do?:

  • Adds many breakdown recipes for items (Armor and Weapons) that did not have one (roughly 900 items..if counting alternate recipes 1,100)
  • Extends CCO learning to items that did not have it
  • Cleans up a few items in the Smelter menu and Tanning Rack menu.
  • Moves all leather and cloth deconstruction off the Skyrim Tanning rack to Frostfall's virtual/survival tanning rack. To Access it, make sure you set hotkeys in the MCM menu for Frostfall.
  • Adjusts a handful of creation recipes to be consistent with the new breakdown recipes (to maintain a 'loss of material' aspect when deconstructing an item)
  • Adds some alternative breakdown recipes for items such as jewelry, and 'Winter Is Coming' hooded helms, to give a choice on which components to recover...i.e. ingot or gems, hood or helmet...
  • Modifies condition checks on 1-Handed weapons so that duel weilding characters will not Smelt their "equipped" weapons. (Only for items that needed a breakdown recipe. I have not checked items with already existing/working breakdown recipes yet.)
  • Slightly alters a few item creation recipes to allow for recovery of dragonbone and dragonscale items.

What it does not do?

  • Does not extend CCO functionality such as "equipped" condition checks to items from mods missing them. (<-Something I would like to check & add in the future.) ONLY the items I added BreakDown recipes for have this feature. Items from Kryptopyr's mods will already have it with the exception of the "duel-weilding" part.
  • Does not allow the breakdown of Daedric items based on lore.

Things to do list:

  • Check existing breakdown recipes to add any missing CCOR features/functionality.
  • Add/modify "equipped" checks for ALL 1-Handed weapons to be more duel-weild friendly.
  • ADD SkyRe back to my build and Update these notes. (will do some of this over the weekend)

 

 

 

 â€“Please note this is not a guide. It is my collection of ramblings and notes as I attempt to get SkyRe integrated into my modified SRLE build. I am a Novice with modding and do not gaurantee results with these notes and shared files. Feel free to make comments/recommendations, especially if you see something I missed or see a better way of doing it. It is a work in Progress....

 

I have switched from BOSS to LOOT. LOOT can be found here. There are a few minor changes when working with LOOT. BUM is no longer necessary as rules can be added directly to your load order via "Edit Metadata". The changes I made are noted in the PREPARATION section #9. IMPORTANT: Neo's guide is based on BOSS. LOOT does alter the load order and may introduce errors that are not covered by Neo's SR Conflict Resolution file.

 

RECAP:

 

 

1. To integrate SkyRe with SRLE we need T3nd0’s ReProccer.

 The ReProccer balances stats, perks, and other things that I don’t fully comprehend but is designed to make mods like Armor/Weapon mods more compatible with SkyRe. It’s not a 100% fix as not all mods are created equal and have not been designed with SkyRe or the ReProccer in mind. This collection of notes focuses primarily on making the SRLE Armory mods + crafting changes work with SkyRe. Gimpyone has been steadily at work making compatability patches for mods such as BYOD and OBIS for his build and sharing them. Please note he is working with a slightly different setup than I am. He is building from S.T.E.P extended + SRLE + SkyRe. I am building from SRLE + SkyRe.

 

>>> What it can do:

 

- Categorize weapon types, based on names (a "Katana" in mod XY will be recognized by SkyRe after running the patcher)
- Categorize weapon types, based on an "override" list (force weapons into categories, in case the name check fails)
- Adjust weapon stats to SkyRe levels - or to anything one wishes, due to configuration. Based on material and type.
- Rename any vanilla-like sword to "Broadsword"
- Assign any bow to either the "shortbow" or "longbow" category, depending on material or name, and rename it accordingly
- Create SkyRe crossbow variants off of any mod-added crossbow. So, if a mod adds a Dragonbone Crossbow, the ReProccer can create Recurve, Silenced.... versions that work with the perks. This includes crafting, tempering and meltdown recipes.
- Create "Refined Silver" variants of any silver weapon. This includes crafting, tempering and meltdown recipes.
- Adjust gravity influence, speed and damage of ammunition and projectiles, based on type and material
- Create ammo variants used in SkyRe (explosive, timebomb, lightsource...) off of any ammo
- Adjust armor stats to SkyRe levels. Again, slot multipliers and material influence are fully modifyable
- Assign shields to the categories "light" and "heavy", depending on material, and rename them accordingly
- Set new cap for maximum armor protection
- Set new value for "protection gained per armor"
- Let mod-added armor work with "Masquerade"
- Force vanilla armor material keywords upon mod-added armor
- Add crafting requirements to any leather material armor
- Add meltdown recipes to any armor/weapon
- Add material perk requirements to any tempering recipe
- Make all ingredient effects work over time, based on effect name. Highly customizable.
- Optionally force minimum/maximum values on the patched ingredients, to prevent ingredients from becoming worthless or too expensive

 

 

 

 

2. I am testing and tweaking with a modified SRLE build. SRLE is also a work in progress as Neo tests and makes changes. My lists below may/may not contain mods from the most recent SRLE guide. These changes are for my preferences and tastes. All other mods as of 27 JUN guide are installed so this list is not inclusive of changes thereafter.

           

      Not installed in my current build:

  • Face to Face Conversation
  • UNP Blessed Body Redux Project

 

  What I have added to my build:

 

     Ready made patches for SkyRe

  • Bring Out Your Dead - Skyre.esp
  • Falskaar Skyre Alternate Start Patch.esp
  • ICH Skyre Compatibility Patch.esp
  • OBIS Skyre Enemy Scaling Patch.esp
  • Post ReProccer fixes OBIS Patch.esp
  • *The "Skyre Consistent Older People.esp" is a file gimpyone is using for his S.T.E.P. extended + SRLE + Skyre version. For my build, I am not using this file.*

 

3. The Unofficial Skyrim Redone Patch is obsolete and no longer necessary when installing Unofficial Skyrim Redone Patch Update v2.1 from Xathra's nexus page. Also, my custom stats.xml on the github page has not been updated for v2.3.1. If you are using the standard Xathra stats.xml, this will not be an issue. If using my tweaked xxSSTHxx version, I do not know what effect it will have on your build because I have not examined the weapon entries to carry over any fixes.

 

Several modders have been making patches for the ReProccer and SkyRe some old, some new. Qotsafans and Balbor & Soulsteels files are not recommended as many of the changes in them are included in Xathra's WAFR IA7 series of patches. To keep things simple here are the needed patches:

 

· Skyrim Redone - Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade Patch by Gruffys [is getting long in the tooth but referenced as a master by Xathra's patches-- i.e..has not been updated for the new version(s) of CCOR. Raulfin may be including/updating this after the next round of Xathra updates v 2.4 are released]

*CCOR SkyRe Patch

 

Xathra has not updated his patches for IA7.1 - this is patched by the Pre and Post ReProccer Patch Update in the UPDATES section. The only files to be replaced are the Pre*.esp, Post*.esp, and stats.xml.

 

2nd Note: Additionally, the v2.3 patches have not been updated for WAF 5.0, Unofficial <*> Patches 2.0.4*, IA 7.1, CCOR 1.5...... v2.4 should cover most of these recent updates when it is completed.

 

· SkyRe Compatibility and ReProccer Patches by Xathra:

*Main file version 2.3 [FOMOD]  -> for the Falskaar SkyRe Faction Patch.esp and Clothing & Clutter Fixes.esp

 

   Optional file downloads needed:

*Clothing and Clutter Fixes - (this has a file-> CCF PreReProccer Patch.esp that needs to be installed)

 

   Updates file downloads needed for IA7.1:

*Pre and Post ReProccer Patch Update v2.3 [FOMOD]

   --install the:

                     a) "with aMidianSS Content Addon" in the "For IA7.1 with CCOR section"

                     b) "Custom Stats replacer" *NOTE: I have replaced this file with xxSSTHxx's v0.9 stats.xml and added the OBIS armor_materials for my build. If you use Xathra's v2.3 I highly recommend using the armor spreadsheet (see comment #3) and creating your own SRLE Post ReProccer Armor fix patch.

 

Updates file downloads needed:

*Unofficial Skyrim Redone Patch Update

 

 
Add these to the stats.xml in the armor material section or download my stats.xml from github:
 *Use this format-
<armor_material>
<iArmor>xx</iArmor>
<sMaterialName>zzzzzz zzzz</sMaterialName>
</armor_material>

RECOMMENDATIONS WHEN WORKING WITH THE REPROCCER

 

 

While experimenting with all of this..I found a few things that made my task a little easier when testing changes with the reproccer.jar via SUM (installed through MO)

1. After creating your SR Conflict Resolution.esp:  Create a new mod <Conflict Resolution> and cut/paste your SR Conflict Resolution.esp from the overwrite folder. (Keep in mind that if you make any major changes to your build that remove mods from Neo's guide you may have to rebuild your conflict resolution.esp)

2. Leave everything else in the overwrite folder until you are satisfied with your reproccing changes. If for some reason you need to re-run SUM, I would delete everything inside the MO overwrite folder and begin with step #3 (Run FNIS) in the FINISHING INSTALLATION AND EXECUTING SUM section below.

 

 

PREPARATION:

 

 

1. Deactive or uninstall CCO’s Frostfall patch

 

2. Install Skyrim Redone and ready made patches for (BCS, SIC, AOS)

Note: I installed Skyrim Redone just before Book Covers Skyrim (install priority 75 / left hand pane in MO) because it is the first mod that requires a patch for SkyRe. In order for the mineorescript.psc from CCOR to function properly, Skyrim Redone should have a lower priority number than Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade (CCOR). I currently have Skyrim Redone at priority 75 and CCOR at 255. This allows proper functioning of the mining speed & quantity menu in the MCM for CCO. NOTE: When v2.4 of Xathra's patches are released, custom scripts will be included to merge compatibility of SkyRe, CCOR, and USKP and should alleviate this problem.

 

3. Install Gruffy’s CCO Remade patch:

a. Main file – CCOR_SkyRe_Patch.esp

b. Optionals –

i. CCOR_aMidianBorn_Patch.esp

ii. CCOR_Frostfall_Patch.esp

iii. CCOR_IA7_Patch.esp

iv. CCOR_SkyRe_Races_Patch.esp

 

4. Install Xathra’s ReProccer Patches SkyRe v2.3 [FOMOD install]

a. Falskaar SkyRe Faction Patch.esp

b. Clothing and Clutter Fixes.esp

c. after installation remove the following folders if you see them:

   *..SkyProc Patchers

   *..SkyRe ReProccer Comp Readmes

 

5. Install Xathra's Pre and Post ReProccer Patch Update v2.3.1 [FOMOD install]

                   a. with aMidianSS Content Addon - For IA7.1 with CCOR

                   b. Custom Stats replacer (if you want the custom stats xml)

 

6. Install Xathra’s Clothing and Clutter Fix for CCF 1.3. (This is the file from the Optional section.)

 

7. Install Xathra's Unofficial Skyrim Redone Patch Update v2.1. (This is the file from the Updates section.)

 

8. Install Gimpyone's patches.

 

9. Launch LOOT from MO and "Edit Metadata" to create rules:

 

This section is in a high state of flux as I learn how to use LOOT. Check back regularly for corrections as I discover issues.

 

Note: After loading my newly updated SR Conflict Resolution.esp in TES5 edit, I realized it was not necessary to load it after the Pre ReProccer WAFR IA7 aMidianSS Content Addon Patch.esp. Neo's BUM rule (for BOSS) user's ...SR Conflict Resolution.esp TOP Bashed Patch...is fine. For LOOT users: no metadata edit is necessary...in my build it sorts at priority 152 which is just after Alternate Start - Live Another Life.esp

 

a. RelightingSkyrim.esp  [Priority -1990000]
b. SkyFalls + SkyMills + DG + DB + FS + WT.esp (load AFTER SkyFalls + SkyMills Total edition.esp)
c. SkyFalls DB + FS Small Waterfalls.esp (load AFTER SkyFalls + SkyMills + DG + DB + FS + WT.esp)
d. OBIS Skyre Enemy Scaling Patch.esp (load AFTER SkyRe_EnemyScaling_Fix.esp)
e. AHZmoreHUD.esp (load AFTER iHUD.esp)
f. ICH Skyre Compatibility Patch.esp [Priority 1995000]

g. All Post ReProccer files or Gimpyone's files from github should be checked/verified they load AFTER whatever mods they affect....Post ReProccer stuff AFTER ReProccer.esp, BYOD-Skyre Patch AFTER BYOD.esp, etc.. LOOT does a pretty decent job of placing these but not always.

 

10. Install T3nd0’s Reproccer

a. After installation delete the following files/folders

i. ReProccer folder

ii. SkyProcDebug folder

iii. ReProccer_*.txt

 

 

Create your Blocklist

 

 

NOTE: Because of the virtual file system in MO, I recommend disabling all post reproccer.esp files (everything below reproccer.esp - as sorted by BOSS & BUM rules) before running SUM. The blocklist is supposed to do this however, I am uncertain that when executing SUM in MO that the T3nd0's Reproccer.jar is reading the correct blocklist.txt

 

11. In Mod Organizer, select T3nd0’s Reproccer mod folder and open in explorer

a. Navigate to SkyProc Patchers>T3nd0_ReProccer>Files>blocklist.txt

b. Edit blocklist.txt - add the following files on its own separate line

i. BCS - SkyRe Patch EN.esp

ii. BCS - CCOR Patch.esp

iii. Post ReProccer Fixes CCOR IA7 aMidianSS Content Addon Patch.esp

iv. ICH Skyre Compatibility Patch.esp

v. Post ReProccer Fixes OBIS Patch.esp

c. Save blocklist.txt and exit explorer

<EXAMPLE Blocklist.txt link>

 

 

FINISHING INSTALLATION AND EXECUTING SUM

 

 

1. Run LOOT from MO <EXAMPLE LOOT loadorder link>

2. Build SR conflict resolution.esp - if necessary as per Neovalen’s guide – skip any fixes for mods not installed/applicable to your build ->read them carefully to ensure they don't apply before skipping-

3. Run FNIS from MO

4. Disable/Deactivate all post reproccer esp(s)

5. Run Wrye Bash: Build initial Bashed Patch (I did not merge anything here)

6. Run LOOT from MO

7. Run SUM - uncheck the "Run BOSS" box under patcher options if you are using LOOT. (I do not create a merged skyproc file so the output.esp(s) can be manually sorted if necessary with Metadata rules)

8. Activate ReProccer.esp

9. Run TES5Edit: sort masters on ReProccer.esp

10. Activate all post reproccer esp(s)

11. Run LOOT from MO

12. Verify all post reproccer esp(s) are sorted AFTER ReProccer.esp

13. Run Wrye Bash: Rebuild your Bashed Patch (merge whatever you want here)

13a. (Only for working with the CK not required for a play through installation) - Redate plugins via LOOT

14. Launch game / test changes

 

 

 

My goals:

Near term goals (working with the reproccer and fixing item stats):

  • identify armors & weapons that need post-reproccing tweaking for: armor rating, damage rating, weight and/or material. (<-needs updated - 27 Jun)
  • fix items that don't melt-down/deconstruct properly (<- beta patch available - 27 Jun)
  • balance items to be consistent from all the various mods such as backpacks (weight and carry capacity, guard helmets, cloaks, etc...basically anything that doesn't match up)

Long term goals (for fixing errors introduced by adding SkyRe and its mechanics..most likely another thread down the road)

  • identify errors that arise from adding Skyre to SRLE such as - starting skill levels, skill level requirements & progression, verify perks working properly
  • deconflict SRLE mods that SkyRe overlaps (OBIS, BYOD, ??) distribution lists - ASIS may fix some of this possibly

Thais, have you loaded up and tested Raulfin's patch?

 

I see the missing master's you mentioned in Gimpyone's version. Going to install Raulfins and see how it looks in TES5. If it is working good, I'll add the dropbox link to the front page and note it is from Raulfin.

 

Edit: Bah..MO hung on me with his FOMOD. I installed it manually in MO. Edit 2: It looks great to me from TES5 standpoint. Should be good to go.

 

Saw this tonight too when looking through all of Xathra's files: Improved Closefaced helmets with Circlets - legendary edition by emieri00

Wondering if this might fix some of the Helmet issues from comment #3. May give it a shot tomorrow and take a look if I get SkyRe turned on tonight. P.S. I'm not interested in making circlets wearable with helmets, but if it fixes the display issues it may be worth it.

Ah buggar, Github is acting funny. Can't seem to download the files there.

 

Anyway, my SRLE Post ReProccer Armor Fix.esp is missing master's too as a result of the merged ich file in WAF 5.0. I'll have to see what I can do to fix it.

1. Bad news: the reproccer is still making melt down recipes for items that already have them. Can see them in the constructible objects folder -- "REP_MELTDOWN_XXXX". Maybe there's an option in SUM for the Reproccer that can be toggled. 

 

2. And, the crafting patch has Conflict resolution edits that will need to be made due to Post ReProccer Fixes CCOR IA7 aMidianSS Content Addon Patch on a handful of recipes.

 

3. Good news is: I figured out how to fix the missing master's on the SRLE Post ReProccer Armor Fix in Wrye Bash. Raulfin's patch is good. I just need to add the few fixes to Armor rating and such that were in Gimpyone's ICH comp patch which I left out of the post armor fix.

 

This reproccer is a real pain in the arse.

 

Oh, and I'm not sure whats up with GitHub.. not letting me download my own files rofl. Maybe its time to check out drop box. So my apologies if you can't get the files downloaded. Will try to fix that tomorrow. Ahhhh, its late and I'm tired... So, it seems GitHub now delivers everything uploaded in a zip file..LMAO. Honestly I think I like DropBox for its simplicity.

Have you tried running it without SUM?

No haven't tried that Thais but I don't think that will matter much -nor would a toggle to disable breakdown recipes- here's why: Many of those meltdown recipes it creates are needed for items introduced by SkyRe_Main...things like the crossbow variants, long & short bow variants, silver weapons, weapon types introduced by SkyRe. However, its also creating brand new recipes for existing items to add missing conditions (i.e. smithing perk requirements) rather than modifying the existing recipes. That means, all the CCOR fixes go without the SkyRe perks. On the other hand all the SkyRe recipes go without CCOR's features. And you end up with duplicate recipes all over the place, creation recipes, breakdown recipes, tempering recipes.....Its really a giant mess.

 

All these patches, Gruffy's & Xathra's attempt to fix alot of stuff which they do, but its like they ignored the breakdown aspect of it. I'm starting to see the whole elephant, and what I thought was its leg turns out to be the toe. The thought of even attempting to replace SkyRe's smithing with something else (like SPO) is way more elephant than I'm willing or able to try eating.

 

Maybe, just maybe, Raulfin will continue to work with the patches and eventually fix alot of the crafting issues. Currently they are juggling alot of mods for SkyRe..IA7, CCOR, WAFR, Frostfall, ...and many others not in SRLE.

 

I'm at the end of the road though. I'm going to stick to SRLE standard with SPO Remade until Perkus Maximus makes its debut. Hopefully it will be modular and if there's a smithing module, lets hope its not so ambitious as SkyRe iteself. If it were somehow possible to pull the smithing/crafting out of SkyRe without breaking it, it would be a happy compromise for me.

The SRLE crafting patch is working very nicely for me. There are a few remaining issues (inflated prices on backpacks, smeltable player-enchanted items) that I've not figured out yet. I also haven't touched misc/clutter items.

 

Now that I have a better understanding of whats going on inside SRLE, I may revisit this project again with SkyRe in the future. I'm hoping that Xathra's (Raulfin's) next version 2.4 will be out before too long. Unless Perkus Maximus makes its debut before then, I may attempt to get this working one more time but I have a hunch that most of the reproccer recipes will have to be wiped out of the reproccer.esp and a manual replacement created for it to integrate/make compatible with SkyRe perks. Lots of keywords will likely have to be checked/double-checked to make it work properly with CCOR.

An annoucement coming on 1 OCT (according to the Perkus Maximus FB page). No, I didn't get in to the beta so I haven't been able to look at it yet. Neo says he wasn't able to get the patcher past SiC.

 

I've been selfishly playing instead of tinkering...but have gotten a wonderful 400+ hours in with two different characters and a few extra mods to SRLE. Really hope 1 OCT brings PerMa out to the general public.

Well PerMa is finally here. Yay!!!!

 

I've had a quick glance at how things look with the new patcher and it doesn't look bad. In fact, with PCaPP things are looking pretty dang good from what I can tell. Raulfin and crew are getting things squashed quickly with their compatibility patches.

 

On the crafting front, my old crafting patch will not play nicely with PerMa...at least the meltdown recipes and PRUFEI has been updated. The good news is, its a simple fix to get it working with PRUFEI again for SRLE standalone. A PerMa patch will take some work to do but at least I know what I'm looking for now and have some tools to make that process easier. Now if I can pull myself away from iRacing long enough to work on it for a bit...lol.
