It would have to be something that doesn't even have objectives displayed and it would be seriously hard to constrain such a quest to only setting stages via default scripts because there aren't always default scripts to cover every conceivable way to advance the stages. You also can't use dialogue to do so since Skyrim requires topic info fragments to do that. If this were Fallout 4, you'd have access to some limited means in the CK to set stages via a checkbox on dialogue which will allow for a bit more freedom.

Shroob is a member of the team, so he's simply relaying what's been said here: http://afkmods.iguanadons.net/index.php?/topic/4617-skyrim-sefallout-4-mods-on-ps4-are-back-sort-of/

There will be no USLEEP (or UFO4P for the Fallout 4 people) for PS4. It simply isn't feasible for the project to attempt to maintain such a fork.

Well, okay then. That's official. I guess that means the PS4 crowd will need to hope someone else steps up to the plate to create a fixpack for them. There's a lot that cannot be fixed without external assets but there is still quite a bit that can be fixed with just an esp. In the absence of USLEEP, I suspect there will be quite a few people offering various fixes to the PS4 folks. I'd be willing to fix a few things for the PS4 players, but I suspect someone with a lot more free time on their hands will beat me to it.

In my experience it is the opposite. Everyone will assume someone else is doing it.. So no one winds up doing it..

Spirited, I love your avatar. Can you tell me a little about it? It looks very nice.

EDITED because I cannot type worth a darn. *curses his one finger typing skills*

Assuming permission were given, how difficult would it be for someone such as myself to just take the unofficial patch, either the legendary one or the separate ones, whichever would be simpler to work with, and just delete everything that would require non-vanilla assets in TES5Edit, and then I upload that, like I said assuming permission were given?

I haven't played Skyrim in many months and have never used the legendary version of the patch so please forgive my ignorance if that is a stupid question. Though since I've no plans to even play the special edition or F4 any time soon, I've no system that could handle it and don't want them badly enough to spend so much of my meager income to upgrade to one, I suppose this is a moot question, but hypothetically, how difficult would that be?

That would be less than feasible, and certainly not desirable either. You'd be surprised just how much actually does rely on edited assets that the PS4 simply can't use.

Every single mesh and texture fix: Gone. Anything touching any script ever: Gone. You're then left with a shell of a patch that would be worth little more than just the placements and typos.

I don't really think it's a good idea in the end, but I suppose if someone knowledgeable enough REALLY wants to (and they're someone I'd trust to do so) then I suppose we'll see. Wait for something on PS4 to actually happen first though

It seems like there is more than just placement and typos that could be fixed without external assets. One of the biggest issues for console players is enemies unequipping weapons and shields when they die. Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought that could be fixed by changing the GMST for iDeathDropWeaponChance from 100 to 0, without the need for new scripts.


There are also bugs like atronach perk/stone absorbing your own summoning spells that should be fixable by just adding a "no absorb" flag to the summoning spells in the CK.


Those were the two single most annoying bugs for me when I was playing on console and those should both be fixable without external assets. Interior shadow striping is also fixable in the CK. Seems like there are many bugs besides placement and typos that are fixable in the CK without external assets.
