The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim New LAA Workaround

[Nov 22, 2011, 1:06 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Skyrim Nexus offers a new way to make The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Large Address Aware, allowing systems to make use of an entire 4GB virtual memory address space when playing Bethesda's RPG sequel. This follows the patch that's been widely reported elsewhere since being mentioned here last night that broke the previous LAA awareness hack. Word is: "Skyrim4GB additionally hooks and replaces the Windows GetTickCount() function that may improve stuttering."

I often make my ini files read-only once I've made the changes I want so the launcher doesn't overwrite them. I suspect Steam simply changes the folder and files back to readable. What we need is a program that monitors files and asks for user authorization for any read-only changes.
