The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - MODS & TWEAKS

You're welcome guys, just make sure to install one by one with the Mod Organiser I posted and RE-TEST :D - Always do a NEW GAME too!

When I get back I'll make sure to post the Skyrim Guide I used as a Base Line of my install. Basically as it's not from this year, I chose mods I liked out of it to install one by one :D

Hi Neil

Your guide is fantastic, very in-depth and straightforward.

Can I ask about mods like CBBE and UNP etc? I've never been able to understand how this area of modding works. Face mods like Biijin Warmaidens and Pandorable's is simple, but I've never got to grips with face and body changes. Do CBBE and UNP work with these texture mods?

Would you install either CBBE or UNP, then Bijjin skin one, and then mods like Pandorable's?

Vortex user by the way.

UNP FIRST ( Also XP32 Maximum Skeleton Special Extended - XPMSSE )

Also there's a bug i found last night in some rooms, the physics of items will go crazy flying things like plates around! This is because even though the new havoc/frame rate unlock fix is working outside, it doesn't always inside. To combat this, have a lower minimum and maximum frame rate cap. Not that 100fps is really needed in Skyrim.

HavokFix.ini

[HavokFix]
##fMaxTime won't update below this framerate.
##Lower values might improve performance in areas where your pc struggles to reach 60fps (WARNING: Setting this too low can introduce weird physics behaviour though).
MinFPS=80
##fMaxTime won't update on higher framerates than this setting. This is to prevent infinite loadscreens if you get 1000+ fps in the main menu.
MaxFPS=120

Then cap your frame rates in Nvidia to something like 80, so it's closer to each other!
 
Skyrim Weapons Expansion
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/32500

Skyrim Weapons Expansion (SWE) adds over 100+ new weapons, mostly swords, to crafting and leveled lists. Every weapon has been rebalanced to the vanilla game, includes crafting, tempering, and breakdown recipes. All weapons are high quality, are from vanilla weapon types, and provided through open-perms of the original author.

Hey guys if you use Vivid Weathers which I do because it looks amazing ( if not still worth trying over other weather/lighting mods) try

Vivid Weathers SE - Brighter Nights/Light Fix
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/32406



Without it you'll have horrible yellow bright colours with torches and other burning objects, this makes it look oh so much better. See image above for reference
 
Glorious Doors of Skyrim (GDOS) SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/32376

22 unique new door meshes, replacing 42 door meshes ingame used in hundreds of instances!
:D :D :D :D :D

Obviously remove any DOOR replacement mods prior to installing this :D

WOOHOOO!!

I've finally found the ENB for me and it works amazingly well with VIVID Weathers!

Desmond's Lusty ENB - PhotoRealistic - Vivid - Picturesque - Obsidian - Cathedral - NAT - ELE - ELFX - RLO

A Peak PhotoRealistic ENB Which turns your game into Eye-Pleasure with little to no FPS impact! It's highly customizable! Everything can be changed to your liking!

I've upgraded to a 2070 GTX and wow what a difference! It's perfectly playable with an ENB now! Obviously dropping to 50fps in heavy modded parts ( JK's mod ).

Still tweaking :D

Nice screenshots btw!
