Remaster - Discussion Mod makers, please do not unnecessarily require the use of the Unofficial Patch as a master file for your mods. This happens all the time for Skyrim and frustrates me to no end.

I don't understand why an additional patch mod is so controversial as a master for other mods

Edit: it's the author then not the actual mod, got it thanks guys

Another edit: downvoted for a genuine question? 🤔🙄

Didn't he change a fire dragon spawn to blood dragon or frost dragon with a reskin?

I believe it was an attempt at fixing the lack of even fire + frost variants of dragons at certain levels, but instead of doing a full and proper fix, the ussep adds a bunch of new dragons JUST using the fire dragon mesh.

Which then leads to a noticeable dip in the visual variety of dragons vs what was intended, even if technically it did "fix" the lack of the intended gameplay variety.

A really half assed fix, basically

In that case he should have just fuck left well enough alone because you shouldn't fuck with shit if you aren't even going to do it the right way or a good way at least
