Skyrim: Crafting Daedric Armor

Apparently most Daedric armor must be crafted by high level characters.  Here is a list of the different types you can make along with their raw materials and stats.

There appear to be two kinds of Daedric armor, regular and Legendary.  This article has a video on the process.

Skyrim Fixes (PC)

Here's a site with help for Skyrim problems on PCs.  I can't guarantee these fixes will work but there are so many problems with Skyrim's implementation on Steam, I'm posting it.

Skyrim has a lot of cache problems.  However Betheseda writes to the Steam cache files often corrupts the cache files.  Once the cache files are corrupted in Steam, it's a fragile system and a lot of problems occur.  As long as you can rebuild the cache file, it'll be ok.

Skyrim Patch 1.3 Won't Launch

The Solo MMO Player couldn't get Skyrim to launch after Patch 1.3 hit today.  He had to clear out his Steam cache as described here to get it to launch on his PC.

Skyrim: Can Shadowmere Be Killed?

Shadowmere has more health than other horses in Skyrim and can recover health fairly quickly, but can be killed.  (The Solo MMO Player says he's not a jumper.) Apparently there is console code for the PC version of the game to resurrect the horse but the Elder Scrolls wiki says that the horse will respawn in the death location 15-20 days later automatically.

Skyrim: Which Side Are You On, Boys?

Early in the game you are asked to pick sides in the civil war.  Will you choose the Stormcloaks or the Imperial Army?  I can't find information about whether the choice you make closes off quest lines, but I did find this explanation of the war and what happens when you choose.

Skyrim Horse Mods

If you are finding your horse controls lacking, there are two mods currently available that make your horse come when you whistle or that make your horse run from combat.  Here is the link to Horse Whistle.

Here's Cowardly Horses.  There are a ton of mods that change your horse's appearance but I was interested in improving control of the horse when I browsed SkyrimNexus.com.
