The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - MODS & TWEAKS

Right guys i'm going to update the OP

I need the best mods to install with perhaps an easy guide for a new user! So for example if I was to install Skyrim today with all the DLC's what would be the best mods.

And go.......
 
ah ha, I was getting dire frame rates after modding ie dropping down to 30 with not much going on. It wasn't until I went through the grassy fields that my frames really hit rock bottom i'm talking 10fps!

I couldn't understand why until I read the readme, it turned out I had grass shadows on and extremely dense grass as far as the eye could see :D

Set your grass density to 75 (or higher NOT LOWER) in your skyrim.ini file or insert the below line
[Grass]
iMinGrassSize=75

If you can't see any difference in your grass density, make sure you have the below line in your skyrimprefs.ini under Grass section:
[Grass]
b30GrassVS=0
bAllowLoadGrass=0
bAllowCreateGrass=1
Install this AFTER Lush Grass

Looks beautiful in game and no slow downs on my 660, the New Ambient Sounds are really something as well

Haven't finished with the mods yet, one bit at a time :)

It's NOT that sharp if you're concerned, downsized pics :)
 
I must say I'm enjoying skyrim a lot now, for it to run so well on my new card and see a completely different dungeon experience. The lighting, the new ambient sounds, the waterfall rushing in the distance, high textured details and still only using 80% or so of my GPU :D

That it does, impressive that you aren't getting slowdowns at all though, mine looks similar but drops to 30fps in some places on a 670 at 1440x900. What resolution are you gaming at Neil?

1920x1200

2XAA
16XAF

HIGH
MEDIUM
ULTRA

VIEW DISTANCE - MAX
 
Added a new life mod, makes a change :D

Oh and having Skyrim on an SSD EVO with Rapid mode OMG! Loads like 2secs or less into a game or different area :D
