I've just finished playing BG3 and thought I'd try Skyrim again, I did play it for a bit on my Xbox years ago and just ended up stopping due to other games. I grabbed the Anniversary Edition from CD keys and was hoping for some suggestions for essential mods. Nothing too game changing though.
 
Well this is irritating me! Downloaded a few mods manually, found Vortex installer so used that. Everything seemed ok but SkyUI disables itself on every startup. Realised it crashes every time I press esc. Read it was to do with Vortex so uninstalled that, manually removed the mods then installed Mod Organizer 2. I'm manually adding mods from downloaded files and it shows in the app but when i fire up Skyrim there aren't any mods loaded. Loot is showing no supported games regardless of me starting up the game.
 
Am happy with the ones I had, doubt i'd get any more, just can't get any of them to work now.

Yep got that far. Mod Organiser has a run option for SKSE. Figured out it is instanced so doesn't stick the mods in the game folder. When i click run it starts then ends without loading the game though. When I run the sort option in Mod Organiser LOOT runs but each mod says missing masters, all like dawnguard.esm, dragonborn.esm etc. I thought these were part of the anniversary edition but Mod Organiser can't see them for some reason.
 
Well that was odd just reselected my instance in Mod Organiser and all the ones it couldn't see have appeared.

Everything looks good now, game won't start through the Mod Organiser though...... This is incredibly irritating.

Missed a notification, Form 43 or lower plugin detected. If i deselect the plugins it mentions the game starts, i've definitely downloaded the mods from the SE section of Nexus though and i know they worked outside of Mod Manager.

There were a few, immersive weapons, immersive wenches, skyrim flora overhaul and icepengiun world map. I managed to update 2 of them to form 44 but they still didn't work. Have disabled them and the game loads fine, would be good if i could get working versions before i start playing the game.
 
Quite possibly actually as it doesn't say I've downloaded them, I think I did it direct through vortex originally then googled them for my next attempt. Will try these ones and see, thanks.
 
Now I have to work out how to get round the reserved keys for the key binds. I uses a 12 button mouse with them all mapped to the keypad numbers and symbols.
 
Well one or 2 mods added up but I am now happy, everything works and I've managed to sink a bit of game time in too.

Got an odd bug which has just started happening. Sometimes when I unequip my bow it just disappears, I've been playing with the same mods since level 1-3 I think and it's only just started happening in the last couple, I'm 15 now. Any suggestions?
