Okay guys, slightly embarrassing, but where does it store the screenshots? I can't find my Skyrim data anywhere on my computer, I've searched the whole thing and the only files I can find are the save files! I was going to mod the hell out of the game as well, but I can't even find the .exe file!

Screenshots (as in skyrim screenshots) have to be enabled in the config files, however, if your just using F12 (steam screenshots) theyll be stored on steam itself.

If you have it on steam right click it and then click on "View Screenshots" then "Show on disk"

for the .exe file it should be in

D (or C):\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim

I am waiting to actually get some nice looking armour to post anything...fur bikini is ok and all, but its not very shiny

 

[MeveM]

Seems the game is ridiculesly easy if you got a heavy armoured upfront killing machine. Usukane and myself have both experienced that, And I feel the same about the dragons, they're pathetic, I never use any potions, I dont even bother with buff potions because they don't hurt me anyway. My heavy armour skill isn't as high as Usukanes though because I block everything with my shield.

Started a new sneaky/magic user to do the dark brotherhood / thief guild chains as they're always fun.

Give us a patch that makes it harder for warriors. (That said, it's a console port, my father in law who loves the game is struggling with his 2 handed warrior, keeps dying, but I guess its because he's playing on that clumsy console , it's really bad to watch when we pop over to theirs, and he's used to console movements, yet its so sluggish and bad. So I guess they've made it for console players sluggly movements, because if I wanted to, i could avoid 90% of the hits.
