what are the uses of the leather flasks and leather notebooks?

Check the mod description? :P

duh!  I didn't realize this was a mod I installed :P

I think certain areas have triggers that set off random events.  Many of the random events are dragons.  Vampires are more annoying because they can kill NPCs in town.  They always seem to appear in town.

The main store in winterfell has been empty since very early in my game due to a vampire attack. I should be allowed to sleep there and set up shop but the game won't let me.

Winterfell?  Are you sure you're not thinking of Winterhold or Windhelm? :huh:

I decided to try the Mod Organizer, but it completely fubar'd my game into a crashtastic mess.  :(   I think it would work great with a new game, but anyone with an existing game should probably do a complete backup of their game before trying it.

Is it different from the Nexus Mod Manager or the same, grumbler?

You really need Wrye Bash and BOSS with it, otherwise you'll be in crashville for a good while.

I also use SKSE (Skyrim Script Extender, if anyone wonders), as there are so many mods that use extra scripts.

Before I installed the SKSE, I tried starting a new game and it took half an hour to get to Helgen in the opening sequence, as the horse and cart kept bouncing off the road and up the hillside landing upside down.  :lol: :sleep:

Mod Organizer is supposedly the follow-on to Nexus Mod Manager (which had the downside of Taking Fucking Forever to load), but as a kind of fan-follow-on to NMM.  I have used Wrye Mods since Wrye (may the monkey rest in peace) was actually the guy doing it, and BOSS since it was actually about Oblivion (when it was an adjunct to FCOM and called BFSS).  You are correct that SKSE/OBSE/FOSE/NVSE are all required mods for the serious modder, but that wasn't my point.  My point was that MO is probably a good mod for new gamers in Skyrim, but the people with currently-seriously-modded games should be careful not to switch to MO without a complete backup, because it doesn't upgrade well at all.

I'll stay away from that. I'm quite happy with the setup I have now.

Nexus Mod Manager is decent, and at least a lot better than what we had when I tried FCOM for Oblivion for the first time ages ago.

Did you ever try the Morroblivion mod?

I love the Morroblivion mod, and regard  it as the best overall mod ever (yes, better than A Quest for heaven, though that is close). I played the entire MW quest without the BS MW limitations.

Tell me more about Morroblivion.  I assume it is an Oblivion mod that recreates Morrowind?

This, I presume, is Balmora.

I like the look of Balmora in the Morrowind overhaul mod:
