The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - MODS & TWEAKS

Depends on what on mods you are running, if any! Some texture mods can push your vram too high and cause micro-stuttering/stutter. The high res texture pack dlc from beth is also well known for causing stuttering

It's not a core issue though as I'm using an I5 and have no problems
 
Populated paths/roads has been updated to 1.23, I'd recommend selecting upgrade and choosing the no script selection in nmm when installing. Have updated op to reflect this
 
Added guard dialogue overhaul however please note ( If you are installing a GDO compatible Mod that comes with SPIKE, such as Immersive Armors, just overwrite SPIKE as all versions are the same ). My mod list contains Immersive Armors!
 
Added femfeet as it makes feet look more life like, I think there's a hand mod too. Vanilla npc model textures are a bit poor.

Make sure to install number 25 in the list first, (DIMONIZED UNP female body) can't link that one :)
 
Just be careful when using STEP as you will hit a wall of issues when new updates come out for mods. Especially when mods add new features, you'll have figure out if that feature is mentioned in the step guide.

For example, hypothetically speaking

Skyrim HD version 1.30 was fine, then Skyrim HD update 1.31 improves all the leaves, and you've got another mod in STEP that previously was fine, it might start throwing up a problem.
 
Ding sound means it's working. It should show up in the task manager though, anything you can right click on? There should be a menu for turning on TB - Force Vsync e.t.c
 
Thanks, but I'm very fussy for that reason. I do not allow Wrye Bash to update mods and I'll turn Skyrim updates off in Steam once all the mods are in.

Neil, please don't be offended by people using STEP. Your guide is great, and I used it religiously when I first started playing Skyrim, so thanks for that. As said by pooley, it is a great guide - STEP is a LOT of work and I only went to it because I want to install a lot a of mods that are conflicting. STEP is a concise (albeit not perfect) guide that helps iron out and resolve these issues,

Thanks for explaining Amraam :)
 
Hmm I have 2GB with minimal stuttering, sometimes there isn't much you can do when it comes to the engine beth uses. I only use a max of 1565 VRAM on my 660. Even with 4GB cards you can sometimes stutter :)

Try dropping shadows to low and grass shadows off!

Just be warned that messing with the launcher might screw up your ini settings and will need to be edited back again ( FOV )
 
Biggest help you can get with performance in Skyrim is an SSD, since installing on that I've not had a single stutter, not even when loading in cities for the first time etc.

I have stutter and I have an SSD Samsung Evo ;)

But then I'm running a number of mods and scripts, some scripts can cause stutter. But it was nothing like as bad as on a stand hard drive :eek:
