Kaer Morhen has to be one of the worse designed places I've ever got lost in.
*wanders around in the dark for eternity*
There's the earring. Finally.
Anyway let's talk to Vesemir now.

"Vesemir. Talk-A"
*presses A button*
And Geralt talks to Uma.
Let's turn him around a bit more to stop that happening.

"Vesemir. Talk-A"
*presses A button*
Geralt talks to Uma again.

I've had this conversation seven times now and it's not like he can talk properly anyway.

Forget about that for now. Let's go on a walk/stroll/run/jog/sprint with Lambert.
I love how he climbs down the ledges but I can't. I just have to jump/fall after him, hopefully without landing on his head and more hopefully without falling too far and going completely off the ledge.
What?
I said, without falling too far and going completely off the leeeeeeeeeee...

And Lambert is still waiting for me way up there.

Assassin! And who do I spot there in the distance beyond the assassin? MAIK
I don't care about his ancestry, that guy is out to get me.

"M'aiq wishes you well."

Meanwhile Lambert and Geralt walk down a steep path...

 

...then Lambert and-  ...erm... Where's he gone?

 

He's gone off that ledge for the ninth time.

Spoiler alert. I DID get past this bit eventually. *phew*
Only to be reacquainted with those fist fights when he won't take his sword out again. 
Did I say sword? I meant "sharpy backclub."

I closed Skyrim over 2 hours ago. But here I am still browsing player home mods. Most of which are way too big and fancy for my taste... Or at least for my characters' taste(s)....

Bedtime!

Edit: and of course I had to try to install the few files I had decided on during my many hours of going through nexus mods. And only one worked (the other ones gave errors at installation so I haven't even tried opening the game with them). Most mods I liked, I just book marked though. Might come back for them later....

Val? I've tried to find if you mentioned the name of the mod you have that gives you the item ID among all that other info but I can't find it. I was thinking it might be skyUI, but the info on that mod doesn't mention console info at all.

I also rechecked what works and what doesn't in GOG Skyrim, and apparently SKSE works and most mods work, but not ones who contains dll files. Which means I need to run through a bunch of mods again, doesn't it?

*ignores hamster even harder*

The base ID thing was an unexpected feature of a mod that lets you tweak facial expressions. It's called "mfg console" and the original is only on Oldrim but there is a  different version  by someone else for the Special Edition. Not sure if it works for the Anniversary edition but either way it does require SKSE.

I don't have the anniversary edition (and as far as I understand, SE and AE are basically the same in terms of mod compatibility, the AE only contains more Creation Club content). I'll take a look.

Edit: seems like the latest version is a little buggy. Not sure what the actual point is, either? To finetune facial animations when your character talks??? Which you basically never see...  
Doesn't seem very useful to me, which is a shame because having that accidental ID thing could be very useful
