Thanks Bro!

[TheGreatKhan102]

FOR FAILED TO INITIALIZE RENDERER:

Just make sure you have the same SkyrimPrefs.ini file put in the below location as well as the one in the video.

Contents/Resources/transgaming­/c drive/Program Files/The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim/%USERPROFILE%/My Documents/My Games/Skyrim

[Itachitobisaga]

@TheGreatKhan102 What do you mean??????????? AAAAAAAAH IT DOESN"T WORK!!!! I have 4 files inside the Skyrim folder: RendererInfo.txt, Saves folder, Skyrim.INI and SkyrimPrefs.ini, I replaced the SkyrimPrefs.ini with the ultra high resoluttion .ini file, and it still doesn't work!

[TheGreatKhan102]

@Itachitobisaga You also need to copy whatever SkyrimPrefs.ini you're using into here:

Contents/Resources/transgaming­­/c drive/Program Files/The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim/Skyrim

Here there should be only a single SkyrimPrefs.ini file to replace.

[Itachitobisaga]

@TheGreatKhan102 Wait, what do you mean by "also"?I copied the .ini resolution thing whatever into Contents/Resources/transgaming­­­/c drive/Program Files/The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim/Skyrim, is there another place you're supposed to copy the file?

[TheGreatKhan102]

@Itachitobisaga lol yes, please reread my initial comment. I believe you'll find that the path deviates at "%USERPROFILE%"

Party on Dragonborn.

[Reisohh]

Seriously people. You blame that it takes forever to download. It depends on your freaking internet! If you live off walmarts wifi then of course it'll take awhile! Lag is because you don't have enough VRAM. Some people are just helpless.

[IV2S]

@TheHelpingGuy9

i did this but every time i try to play i hit new game and then it just freezes help please

[MultiPokemonWorld]

I need your help man or anyone who's watching this video! I did everything you did, I also can open it and then it opens up fine, I start a new game, but then I'm just stuck at the tips part like, where it loads the game where the Dragon is and the tips show up! But after that nothing happens, tips keep coming! Nothing happens!

Hey everything works fine, with help from some pointers in the comments. The only thing wrong I've noticed so far is the fire animation when a mob or myself is on fire. The flames are big black moving boxes where the flames should see. I could live with it on the enemy but when it's on me I can't really counter at all. Anyone know how to fix this?

[Titansfan2653]

Guys, you have to put the copied files in the skyrim folder not the user profile folder, and then it should work

[dkkhafif]

"ASK QUESTIONS! i will do my best to help!"... answers no questions..

JK, great tutorial, works perfectly for me.

[TheGreatKhan102]

"Failed to initialize renderer.

Your display doesn't support the selected resolution. Please set a different resolution in Skyrim's Launcher under 'Display Settings'."

I tried finnolin's resolution change (though I couldn't find RosHakiM's comment) and switching to the "Low" SkyrimPrefs.ini file, but still get the error.

[JWeNi23]

It works for me :), but the textures, water and the ground sometimes disappears. Also the textures sometimes stretches out. It just blocks my vision. Can anyone help??

Help...?

[WSTrecords]

@TheHelpingGuy9 I am a total beginner at torrents stuff and my mac seems to not be able to read files and it keeps giving me a message that says "There isn't an application that can open this" or something like that. What else am I missing? I see that It doesn't give me the option to unzip, I just click the dowload and it opens but it doesn't show exactly as it did on the video. I guess some files are missing? It didn't show with the color guides either. downloaded uTurrent download took a day.

[Callindenn]

@WSTrecords

this is the exact same problem i am having, and i cannot figure it out, ive been trying to get it to work and ive gotten nowhere. if u find a solution please help

[MosoHD]

I Need a Cider Link someone?

[MajorasFear]

I'm playing it and I click new game and it's frozen...help?

[Rage995]

@MajorasFear same problem, mine freezes after i click new game

[MajorasFear]

@Rage995 Dude I got mine to work, follow the steps in this video. Don't forge look at WadsXDXD's top comment, do those steps and you are good! My only problems is the game freezes but i can deal with it it happens rarely :)

[MajorasFear]

Thank you! Subbed!

[jwiggy69]

very slow, lots of lag.

[Beauboy93]

I can play the game and it runs great, but my mouse is messed up. It only stays in the center of the screen. It also isn't the Skyrim mouse, its the Mac os x mouse.

[ThatBurningToast]

No offense man, but you should really consider editing out the all the "uh" "uhm" and snapping your finger bits. You also should have specified on folders, since you lost me at "uh uh copy this into the folder with the same exact name but I won't tell you whether it's the cider or regular set of files. Good luck guessing." Please remember that :\

[ScartMolotov]

Got it & runs great but anytime I'm outside it seems textures/ground/water disappears & textures stretch out, sometimes obscuring everything (and causing a few cliff falls as well :(. Anyone got any ideas?

[WSTrecords]

i don't know how to do it

it says that theres an error when i clic the wrapper link

[MajorasFear]

Mine is stuck at 99% help?

[stefferambo]

Thanks a lot! Works fine! just a problem though.. The game lags a lot, my specs are:

2,4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB

Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2

Any way to fix lags? Or are my specs too low? thanks!

[MendicantBias69]

can you use a 360 controller with this ported version? i noticed theres an option for it in the menu but it doesn't seem to do anything and i can't manually change the keys...i already have the driver installed but i guess it needs a little config...any suggestions???

[ArthurA128]

did everything the same and when it trys to open it says :

Failed to initialize renderer.

Your display doesn't support the selected resolution. Please set a different resolution in Skyrim's Launcher under 'Display Settings'.
