That's all they fixed? Hmm, well at least those couldn't be the only major fixes. Books on bookshelves, yep that's a biggie.

 

[hexperiment]

hope the game randomly crashes less -.- It makes me so paranoid, I quick-save every 3 minutes.

Can I install update 3 without installing update 2?

Does the fact that for the first time in my house (last night) I got a prompt to activate my bookshelf and weapon rack mean that I was auto-updated to 1.3 when I started? I have Steam start up with Windows so it is in the tray as soon as I finish booting. I would remember receiving those prompts if I had gotten them when facing those furniture items prior to last night. Were they always there?

This is happened to me today. First glitch that was actually fustrating.

How was magic resistance not stacking properly? And was that including elemental resistance?

 

[PunWisp]

Its so annoying how the game freezes so I have to restart console.. It actually happens often.

From what I heard, resistances were not working AT ALL. Not sure though, only evidence I actually saw in game was a fire atronach that I killed with a fire trap, rather quickly, at that. It died almost instantaneously.

Edit: For clarification, actual fire trap, not a fire rune trap.

If your on XBOX, install to harddrive. Thats what I had to do & it runs perfect now.

 

[PunWisp]

What do you mean install to harddrive? All my saves and stuff are on it. Unless you mean literally install it on there. but how?

 

[winterhold knight]

i find the game on my PlayStation crashing very often and my ps3 only crashes about once a month

 

[Finalchrono]

You can install any game on the xbox to the HDD by pressing Y before selecting start game. It will take you to a screen that gives you details about the game and a choice to install to the HDD.

 

[Emmmmz]

Whoooo! I'll get my books back.. maybe we'll see

 

[PunWisp]

Hmm, tried that, but it doesn't seem to work. Maybe because of the 360 interface update?

 

[Finalchrono]

Yea more than likely. If you can find anywhere that gives you a choice to see details about the game then that's where you should be able to choose installing to the HDD.

 

[FattieFantasy]

Dx hopefully they do something with the crashes :< 4 crashes in less than 1hr (ps3)

I found the bookshelf sorting feature by accident sometime very near Skyrim's launch date, so it seems it was an initial release feature. I haven't used it since I immediately filled all bookshelves in my Breezehome, but I believe the prompt only displayed when you put your cursor on the lip of the shelf that you wanted to populate, which is quite narrow and easy to miss.
