Hey all, I typically up my resolution via SteamVR global/per app resolution sliders; but I've heard of other recommended methods for better performance.
Last SkyrimVR play session a year+ ago, I saw it was recommended to leave SteamVR resolution at 100% and "up it" somewhere else for a boost in performance.
My problem is I cannot remember where this other place was.
The group is gone and most of the people I ask are Quest users.
Any Index users here that boost resolution outside of SteamVR that can help me? TY!
As long as i turn my head ,there's a blue line appears at the the corner of the screen.Didn't happen when I was using pico4
Followed a video guide exactly but it still just wont work for me
Mods: VRIK SkyUI VR Skyrim Script Extender for VR Syrim vr ESL (nexus told me to download not from the video) PLANCK HIGGS VR address file (added afterwards)
1st its telling me that im missing the vr address file, so i added a mod that adds that and then with that mod the game loads onto a black loading screen, after having to click enter on my keyboard the game is just all sorts of messed up, idk what to do
So 1st it tells me that it cant find an address library, i install one from nexus and then start the game but the title screen is completely black, after having to start using my keyboard the game looks really blurry (looks fine on my monitor but not in vr) is that normal? I dont walk forward during cutscenes and am just left behind, my heights all fucked up im twice the size of everything else, sliders dont work and then when i got to the part where j have to jump through the burned building the whole building is intact and i cant jump through it (not burned down like usual) i only have like 2 mods installed aswel not sure what to do
removed all my mods because they didn't work and tried to run the game normally to set up a save file and then i just see a black screen, i can hear sounds but cant see or do anything (to my knowledge) im sure ive deleted all the mods.
I encountered strange bug ever since installing those mods.
Let's say I grab Lydia who is following me, move and twist her hand in weird directions, then let her go. Since doing that whenever she starts running her running animation will be weirdly pulled back to the ground, usually in the direction I pulled her hand etc. The only way to fix it is to restart the game.
Did anybody encounter something similar?
I would like to be smaller in skyrim, but when I adjust VRIK settings to do this it makes my body look like its crouching. I recalibrated it but now I'm normal height. Tried player size adjuster bc I've used it in flat skyrim but it doesn't seem to work in VR. Is there a mod or setting I can use to make skyrim bigger or my character smaller without the crouching appearace?
I tried VRIK again and I have always the same issue: My chest and stomach is forward, my knees are bent. If I adjust the height taller or smaller or whatever, my head goes higher or lower, but the body is about 20-25 cm forward and my knees bent. Avatar looks like it wants to poo badly constantly. I followed the main config guide YouTube video, still same. Floor looks to be ok.
Today, we’re launching something special in our community – FUS Branches by Users! This new channel is a space where members can share their own custom FUS setups and help others create the perfect Skyrim VR experience.
First up, we have FUS Light! A highly requested, streamlined FUS profile with no extra visuals or gameplay overhauls—just the core essentials for a stable, performance-friendly setup. It’s ideal for those wanting a light modding base or anyone running Skyrim VR on low-end hardware.
FUS Light is designed as a starting framework with only the essentials, including utilities, fixes, and must-have VR mods:
The best part? It’s only 7GB, downloads folder included! FUS Light covers more or less all the green-category mods of normal FUS and a few handy extras.
Happy modding everyone!
I wanted to back up my saves so I went to documents but all the saves there are dated back to 2023. And I played Skyrim yesterday last so I'm wondering is it because O installed Skyrim on (D:) instead of (C:)? I used to have on (C:) but I changed it for better performances. Where could my saves be now? Any ideas?
I'm trying to play skyrim vr with FUS DAH installed via wabbajack. Game launches and runs well for about a minute then crashes and brings me to steamvr home. Its the same with both of the alternate starts that come with fus. Any idea whats up? Been trying to get this game working for days and still cant get past the starting area... I'm using a quest 2 with a cable if it matters.
Hi guys, Block Steal Papyrus is the only mod of it's kind I've found that works in VR but it has 2 issues.
The other Blocksteal mod is SKSE only.
Are there any alternative mods I can try instead?
Update: And just as I posted this I found it. Sure of Stealing mod. lol.
Right now I've got Librum, FUS, & Yggdrasil ready to go, and Mad God installing as we speak. My intention is to have a different character playstyle, of the big 3, running on a separate modlist, and if like your opinion on which to play on which. At a glance my initial thoughts are:
Librum <--> melee fighter It speaks of being low magic, so makes sense
Yggdrasil <--> full mage There's talk of the process of learning spells being more involved, which sounds interesting. Also, I haven't had a mage run in forever, and am excited to match my most anticipated run with a modlist that adds so much new stuff.
FUS <--> stealth I've played stealth to death, and love it, but simultaneously the least excited about it. And since FUS is supposed to be the most bare bones, matching those by default. I'm mainly installing FUS for my roommate to check out because he's curious but not an experienced gamer - don't want to scare him off with too much extra.
Mad God is the wild card here. I'd never heard of it before until recently, but seeing it mentioned a lot. Since I've played the old version of Yggdrasil (Narsil) before, my instinct is to ditch Yggdrasil run mage in Mad God.
What youse guys think?
Before anyone says to use VR Keyboard. I have tried. It doesn't work with open composite. Which I use to play Skyrim VR. If anyone has a suggestion I would greatly appreciate it.
Help with my mods, please
Okay, so I had all my mods working a bit ago, then I took a break because moving and general life stuff. When I came back, it wasn't working anymore, and I couldn't find the problem. No issue, I thought, I'll just start over, but I'm ONCE AGAIN at the same problem, I can't find the bloody problem preventing me from booting the damn game. I've been at this for multiple hours, trying to figure it out, but I do not know how to read the damn log, Google was no help, and even removing practically my entire mod library didn't work. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here, and how to get this damn headache working? Thank you in advance to anyone who takes the time to assist here. If you need any further info, just tell me.

Hey guys, I've been doing a lot of bare knuckle brawling in VR and I have mods that affect what happens when I have weapons drawn. However, I don't have a good indicator of when my fists are readied in VR or not and I've several times attacked enemies without weapons at the ready.
Is there a mod that gives you a good indication that your weapons are ready when you're unarmed?
After playing for 10 hours or so and without changing anything I suddenly got this glitch. Anyone know a fix?
Using Mad God Overhaul and I’ve only added the mod Quickloot.
So I'm using Mad God Overhauls VR SFW Wabbajack modlist and have added quite a few mods to it. I've noticed that once I'm above 2048 plugins, I start to get a lot of freezing issues in combat. If I let my companions fight, there isn't any issue, but it's when I fight that there are problems. I can walk around towns, interact with personnel, and do most anything that isn't combat without freezing issues.
I like to use the "Alternate Start - Relic Hunter" mod but will sometimes substitute it with owning a house in Solitude to start the game. If I do the Relic Hunter start, the game freezes as soon as I'm fight the skeletons in the nearby ruins. If I start with owning a house, I can walk around town, pick up a few followers and head over to Silent Moon Camp to test out fighting. When I fight this way, the freezing doesn't happen as much, but I'll still get it with magic, and completely freeze when using a weapon.
I have around 3000 mods I want to use. but can't get above the 2048 without issues. I'll try switching which ones I use to reach that point but am totally lost on how to get this to work right.
Things I've done:
I thought it was "Apachii Divine Elegance Store" and disabling that had it working for a bit. But then I tried a new game to make sure and the freezing still happened...

Hey guys I'm interested in what Mad God has to offer gameplay-wise but I'd much rather an option that sacrifices some of the visual improvements for better performance and (hopefully) a smaller file size. Any recommendations? Thanks!
Has anyone managed to get Reshade working with Opencomposite? I've tried multiple solutions (the old Glamur version, Reshade 6.0 with OpenXR support, the ENB dll workaround) but all I end up with is a black screen ingame and a complete freeze when starting the game. I'm running Virtual Desktop's VDXR with the opencomposite fixes from nexus, no ENB just Community Shaders. Has anyone managed to get these two working together or is it a lost cause?
After finishing my load order and getting all the mods setup there's only one thing left to do. If you said play the game I don't know what world you are living on. I have to start over with more new mods of course!
So, since I am on a 3050 graphics card I need to balance performance with quality. Things I can't live without are good lighting (dark dungeons and nights with bright days and shadows everywhere, especially on people). Good weather (A combination of cathedral weathers and true storms is awesome to me so I don't think I will change it, but it does seem to increase the grainy image). Good land and water (I like a vibrant less cold look, would be nice to see seasons change and reflection on water).
So I'm curious what suggestions you may have? Textures are fine, but are there any grass and tree mods that are balanced for performance and quality? Any light combos? I'm using glamur as a reshade. But for some reason if I use it with my current weather it isn't clear. It is not blurry, it's grainy.
So...any suggestions with maybe some FPS testing?
So I just successfully installed Mad God Overhaul, am new to VR (wow!!!) and am wondering what some suggestions for playstyles are. I imagine everything is a bit different for VR!
Also does anybody know if there is some aimimg aid for bows and magic? I cant seem to hit anything :o
I downloaded some player homes but they don't seem to work with MGO, seems to have some floating trees and such, just stuff out of place. Before I try more, is there a list somewhere or any that are recommended that might work out ok? Was kind of hoping for a no load one that looked nice or had good scenery I could use when friends want to see my VR setup
Hi all,
I’ve been playing Skyrim SE with the Yggdrasil VR modlist via Wabbajack, which includes Holy Mountains . I initially thought this mod might be responsible for a strange shiny, metallic texture appearing on some mountain surfaces, but after checking, it doesn’t seem to be the cause.
I can't figure out what's causing this effect. Has anyone else run into this issue or have any idea which mod or setting might be responsible? The texture looks way too reflective and out of place for natural rock, so any insights would be super helpful!

Thanks!
My fights are starting to get so chaotic I have no chance keeping track of my HP or noticing the heartbeat sound. Plus the HP bar has a habit of disappearing completely
I want to focus more on the experience / quest side of things
would like to x2 my damage and hp, something like that, or even increase my regen
is there an .ini file I have to modify somewhere? I'd prefer not doing this everytime i login.
currently using Mad gods 2.5 recently released (and getting about a 30 - 40% fps increase compared to the previous mad gods + wayyy better quality)
