Goonz Skyrim SE Modding Guide
By Goonz
This is a complete guide to install my mod list, it covers all the essential's and bug fixes, audio, a complete lore friendly graphics overhaul and game play. All the Anniversary Edition Dlc is supported, I provide simple and easy to follow instructions for everything, but you need to already know how to use something like 7zip and Vortex mod manager.

UPDATE in progress do not use this

------------
This current mod list posted here was last updated in December of 2022, it is over a year old and should not be used. Wait on me to finish the update and come back and remove this section.

I started rebuilding my mod list back in August 2023 and worked everyday, all day on it up until the game update in December, I spent like 96 or 97 days straight doing nothing but modding Skyrim and playing Skyrim and I was fixing to release the update, after I build my mod lists I do a complete play through with them and then before I update my modding guides I will do one final clean install and follow my own instructions to fix typos and mistakes in my instructions and as I was doing that, the game got an update.

So I put the game down back in Dec on the first update, I am back to Skyrim now and I am updating that last mod build I made, it shouldn't take me to long because I had already typed and formatted everything, I am just having to reinstall it and update it as I go and add some of the cool new mods that has came out in the past 4 months I been away, it's a huge mod list that came close to 1,900 individual mods of some the best and latest stuff you would want to use. I have made the decision to go back to game version 1.5.97 because it is the best version of Skyrim SE and the best for modding, there is nothing good about AE and all the Creation Club stuff added sucks, it's just a bunch of badly made mods that adds stuff I wouldn't normally use if I were picking from Nexus.

I been asked several times, so i just wanted to say it here to, Yes I have been working on this everyday since March 29th and I am getting close, I will post it when it's ready, I am not to far off
My Discord Server
Goonz Modding[discord.gg]
If you need help with anything that pertains to my mod list then ask me on Discord. It is a lot easier to help from there and you will reach me faster, a lot of times I do not get notifications when you comment on my guides, so I have no idea until I manually pull up my guide and happen to see it

On my Discord server you can find some mods and reshade presets I make for myself that I do not post on Nexus to keep from having to fool with setting up more mod pages I just make them, link them and go play.

All so on my Discord server are ready to go mod packs for many other games I like to play, some of those games are Cyberpunk 2077, Red Dead Redemption 2, The Outer Worlds, several Resident Evil games and many more games, if you are interested go check them out, all you do is download them extract them and place there contents into your game folder and go play, they all come with a mod list txt that list all the mods included and a detailed instructions txt that list easy install and uninstall instructions and some basic info about some of the mods.
Introduction
This is a complete guide to install my mod list, it is for the current game version 1.6.640, it covers all the essential's and bug fixes, audio, a complete graphics overhaul that I have been building on for over 3 years covering every texture in Skyrim with what I think is the best and lore friendly, lore friendly npcs and armors and an optional vanilla plus game play section that is not intrusive mods that change the way you have to play, but only enhances and fixes what we already love.

I play with the full Anniversary Edition Dlc, but that is not a requirement, I separated all conflict resolution for that stuff, that way if you do not own it you can still run my mod list without it, however my gameplay section's conflict resolution does require the AE Dlc.

The game play section is optional because I separated my conflict resolution, that way it doesn't force my choice of game play mods on anyone, but that does not mean you can go through my guide and pick what you want, this is a complete stable setup that is patched and intended to be installed in full, if you are experienced then you know what you can and can't do, but if you are newer to modding then it is strongly advised to not skip anything and follow it exactly.

I have provided detailed, simple and easy to follow instructions for everything, but you need to already know how to use something like 7zip and Vortex, take your time and read carefully there is no rush, and once you are done you will have a stable mod list that you can play on for as long as you want.

You will need some what of a modern pc to run my mod list, I play on a Nvidia RTX 2070 Super and an Intel i7-9700f with 16gb ram on a 1080p monitor, and for your Vortex archive folder, mod staging folder, and game folder you will need 320gb of hard drive space and if possible you should run this game from your ssd. You can redirect the archive folder to your D Drive, so you would need 233gb of your ssd.

If you have questions during the install feel free to join my Discord link below and ask me, I will always provide support to the best of my ability for all my modding guides.
Clean Install
A fresh copy of the game is requirement for this guide, no exceptions, if you skip this and something breaks, then its your fault, and I will not help you

First open file explorer and select View at the top, and make sure you have File name extensions and Hidden items check marked, so they are enabled

In file explorer, go to what ever drive you have your game installed on, go to steam/steamapps/common and delete the Skyrim Special Edition folder.
Now go to Users/?Your User Name?/Documents/My Games and delete the Skyrim Speacial Edition folder, Now go to Users/?Your User Name?/AppData/Local and delete the Skyrim Special Edition folder, Now go to Steam and under your game library right click Skyrim Special Edition, go to manage, then Uninstall
If steam is installed in your programs files directory and you only have one drive
Moving a Steam Installation and Games
All so make sure your Drivers are up to date

Now reinstall Skyrim Special Edition and DO NOT put it in your Program Files Directory, once installed, boot the game one time and then close it out. For Anniversary Edition Dlc get that installed first from the menu then close the game out.

To keep your mods from possibly breaking in the future
Open Steam, go to your game library and right click Skyrim Special Edition and select Properties, open the Updates tab, under the Automatic updates tab change it to Only update this game when I launch it and close the window, Now Steam will only update the game when you launch it from Steam or the main game executable file, and you will be launching the game from the script extender from here on out, so the game will not update and break your mods.
Mod Manager
This Guide was written specifically for Vortex, if you try and follow it with MO2, then I will provide my loadorder.txt in the Final Mod Count and Loadorder.txt section towards the bottom of my guide and you will need to pay attention to the loose file conflict rules I list after a mod that is the best I can do for you, I do not use MO2 so I will not provide any support if you use a mod manager that I do not use. If you are not knowledgeable and conformable enough with MO2 to install my modlist, then you should ask yourself, should you be using it in the first place with my guide when you have a easy to follow detailed guide for Vortex right in front of you.
For help with Vortex, here is the link to a youtube playlist of how to use it
VORTEX - A Beginner's Guide

Vortex Mod Manager[www.nexusmods.com]
Download the first main file titled Vortex, click the Manual Download
After it is downloaded go to your downloads folder and double click the Vortex executable and let it run, then launch Vortex,at the top right corner click the account circle and then click log in on Website, then Authorize Vortex, now you can download mods. For Vortex to find a game you have to have it installed and booted the game at least one time, in Vortex open the Games tab on the left, at the top click scan and do a full scan, let the scan complete, your game should now be in the Unmanaged section, click on it to manage and after it is done you should get a notification in the top right corner on the bell icon, that mods can't be deployed, select fix, select next, then select apply fix, then its going to bring you to the settings page at the mods tab, at the mod staging folder select suggest, then select apply. By default your mods archive folder will be on your C Drive where Vortex is installed, if you want to change this then in Vortex, open up settings, select the downloads tab at the top, under Download Folder select the folder icon and place it on another drive and create and name a new folder, I keep mine on my D/Drive
Tools
  • Modding Tools Folder
    Create a folder, not in the program files directory or the game folder, put it somewhere, were you want ever have to move it, if it gets moved later, it will break the Vortex dashboard links we are gonna create, I placed mine on my D-drive as a standalone folder

  • 7zip [www.7-zip.org]
    Main File- Download 7-Zip 19.00 (2019-02-21) for Windows, 64-bit x64
    Run the executable and install it to your Modding Tools folder

  • SSEEdit [www.nexusmods.com]
    Main File- SSEEdit 4.0.4
    Create a new folder, name it Xedit and extract the download to it, after move that folder to your Modding Tools folder
    On the Vortex Dashboard, click add a tool, we are going to add both xedit exe here. the first one under Name put SSE Edit, then under target, click the file icon far right and go find the SSEEdit.exe, in your Modding Tools/Xedit folder, once you have it selected, click open, bottom right corner and the click Save on Vortex, now it is added to the dashboard. Do the same with the SSEEditQuickAutoClean.exe and name it SSEEditQAC so you know which is which on the dashboard. Do the same with one more, and go find SSEEdit.exe, and this time give it the command -veryquickshowconflicts and when you run this one, it will by pass all the loading in process and go straight to checking all active plugins for conflicts
Cleaning the DLCs
Do not clean official content anymore, Based on these posts here from the Unofficial Patch page Nexus Posts[imgur.com] I will not be cleaning Skyrim anymore
ini Tweaks
BethINI- [www.nexusmods.com]
Main File- BethINI Standalone Version v3.6.1
Extract the download and place the new folder into your modding tools folder
My Bethini settings
Run the BethINI.exe and select Skyrim Special Edition
Select Ultra Preset and Recommended Tweaks, then follow these screenshots


If you need better performance you can go with the High preset and then recommended tweaks, just make sure for Enb you turn on 64 Bit Render Target and for Lux Interior Godrays and then make sure and disable Lens Flare, Anamorphic Lens Flare, Ambient Occlusion, Improved Shader and Project UV Diffuse Normals
Good Modding Tips
Always disable steam overlay, steam cloud saves and any other overlays, like Nvidia's Ge Force, Discord, Afterburner, etc. , they are known to cause issues for many, never have anything running that is not necessary to run the game, you don't want anything diverting resources from the game, for an fps counter use the one from enb overlay

Don't ever add and remove mods mid game, once you have your tested load order set up, leave it alone, don't update mods, don't do any modding on an existing play through, just do your play through

-Save Files
Never use Auto Save or Quick saves, Turn all 3 of the save options off under gameplay settings, always operate off a Manual Save, and always make a new Manual Save each time, do not save over top of a previous Manual Save, just make a new one

-Picking Out Mods
When you are picking your own mods in the future, always take your time and read all you can about the mod, its description and requirements, what it does, and look at the comment section and bug reports and see if any other users are reporting issues or incompatibilities with other mods, but sometimes user reports are the result of user errors and just because someone says something is broke doesn't necessarily mean that it is, you just have to figure this stuff out on your own when you are modding on your own, you can search these comment sections for specific words by pressing ctrl and F and then type in the word and press enter, it will take you straight to any posts with that word in it, check the mods in Xedit and test the mods one at a time thoroughly before you invest your time into a play through with them

New Released Mods
If your gearing up for a new play through and a brand new cool looking mod gets uploaded to Nexus, it's not always a good idea to take the description at face value and use it immediately because it looks good, bookmark it for later, click that Track button on Nexus, often upon release mods have issues and they only get fixed by the community using them and making reports and identifying whats wrong with them, it's always best to revisit these mods a few weeks to a month later after they have received there fix updates that way you do not waste your time on a play through with something that is broke and end up having to remove it and start a new game

-XEdit
Always check your mods in Xedit for conflicts and errors, always check nexus for patches made by mod authors, you will always have conflicts in a load order, it doesn't mean it is a bad thing, in most cases you want have to do anything at all, its just an overwrite, where you use two mods that touch the same thing, so the plugin loading last wins and you lose the changes from the other plugin, sometimes you may have to adjust the load order to resolve a conflict, by creating a custom rule on the plugins page in Vortex, or make a patch plugin by using the copy into option in Xedit and just forward changes, and then theres time when a conflict can not be resolved and you have to choose between two mods. It really comes down to the mods, and what particular change is conflicting, using Xedit is not something you will learn overnight, it takes time and experience, if you are gonna mod these Bethesda games, then it is the most essential tool there is, other then your mod manager, to get familiar with it read this
Tome of xEdit[tes5edit.github.io]
I put together a playlist of some helpful Xedit videos here- Xedit Video Playlist
Driver Settings
I do not use Display Tweaks, but after finally caving in and trying out High FPS Physics Fix on Fallout 4, this might change next update, I am going to try out Display Tweaks and see how it runs, but for now you should cap your Frames at 60 and enable V-sync to fix screen tearing.

Nvidia Users
Open up Nvidia Control Panel, and select manage 3d settings, on the right side of the screen select the Program Settings Tab, then select the Add button, Then select skyrim, and scroll down and enable the following
Max Frame Rate- 60fps
Vertical Sync- On
After make sure and select Apply at the bottom
Before You Download Anything
These mods listed in my guide should be Endorsed, they all deserve it and an Endorsement shows some appreciation for all the hard work the Authors put in for FREE so we can have a better experience while we play Skyrim, so please hit that ENDORSE button, it cost you nothing, just a click of the mouse

You should all so go here WIZKID34[www.nexusmods.com] and give wizkid some kudos, he is responsible for a few private mods I use from his Discord and am very grateful for, he did not have to share these on his Discord, and we will be using most of all of his public Nexus mods, go show your appreciation
Instructions for using the guide README
For all these mods in the guide I will list the file and the version that needs to be downloaded, keep an eye on that, if a mod gets updated, depending on what it is, you may need to use the version I use, most visual mods should be just fine to update, but if its something else with a plugin, depending on what is in the new update, it could create a conflict I am unaware of, and need things forwarded in Xedit to get it working correctly, if you are unsure ask me, or if you need a version of a mod I use, let me know, I will share it with you, I always answer all comments and messages as soon as I see them, use my Discord for a faster response.

I listed all the mods and the file versions, unless I say other wise, you download it from the files tab, on the mod page, with a mod manager download, you install it and enable it and then I will list any FOMOD instructions and Conflict Rules

For google drive links, you download the file I listed and then drag and drop it into the Drop Files box at the bottom of the mod page in Vortex, then install and enable it just as any other mod.

To set a Plugin Rule in Vortex, go to the plugins page, at the top select Manage Rules, enter the rule there, then select Add, close it out and at the top select Sort Now

Do your Loose File Conflict Rules like this
On the mods page in Vortex click the gear clog on the far right corner to open up settings, on the drop down menu check box Dependencies, a new section will appear out from your mods, when a mod has conflicts, a lightning bolt will appear out from the mod in this section, click this lightning bolt to set your conflict rules, as you install my list, its much easier and less confusing to do it here, instead of doing it from the notifications bell or the manage rules at the top

They are several times you will need to delete a specific file out of the mod staging folder after installing a mod, to find where your staging folder is click Settings listed on the left in Vortex and at the top click the Mods tab, there you will find your skyrimse Mod Staging Folder location, after you delete the files I list always go back and deploy your mods and confirm the changes, If you ever uninstall or right click on the mod and select reinstall then Vortex will unpack it again from the original archive and redeploy what you deleted from the staging folder back to the staging folder

There should be no plugins disabled at the end, I have people disable plugins as they go and then enable them later because those plugins will have a missing masters, people have the tendency to boot the game and check stuff out as they install it and a plugin with a missing masters will cause a ctd on launch, any plugins not needed I have you go inside your mod staging folder and delete it.

If you need to find anything specific in the guide, and do not want to skim through it, you can press ctrl and F at the same time to bring up a search box and type a word and press enter, it will tell you how many times that word is mentioned in the guide and by pressing enter you can skip to each time and place it is mentioned in the guide to find stuff faster
Important Readme
Skyrim Special Edition has been mislabeled through out the community and it may be confusing, but the current game version of Skyrim Special Edition is game version 1.6.640 and this is what people are calling the Anniversary Edition and it is not, its just the current game version of Skyrim Special Edition, then they refer to SE as game version 1.5.97, and thats the last game version before the update, so when you see a mod file I have listed say Anniversary Edition, that does not mean you have to own the Anniversary Edition Dlc to use it, it just means you need to have an up to date copy of Skyrim Special Edition. Any mod that requires the Anniversary Edition Dlc, I left a note listed below the mod link.

  2. NLA - Natural Lighting and Atmospherics for ENB SE[www.nexusmods.com]
    This is NLA - Natural Lighting and Atmospherics for ENB SE by looping on Nexus, it is an oldrim port of the Legendary original one by Confidence Man, which at this time is my favorite weather and enb setup. Problem is looping did not port the plugin he left it in form 43 for oldrim, so I converted it to form 44 and redid some of the enb, like the interiors, bloom, wet surfaces, rain wet surfaces, water, ao, fire, and several other changes
    Get it Here - NLA - Natural Lighting and Atmospherics and Enb[drive.google.com]
    Extract the download and inside is a Natural Lighting and Atmospherics SE - Weather Plugin.7z, drag that into Vortex and install, then inside the Skyrim Special Edition folder I provide copy/paste all the contents to the inside of your Skyrim Special Edition game folder.
    Note - If you find nights to dark for your taste, open up the enb overlay by pressing the end key, then over on the right side click ENBEFFECT.FX to expand it's settings and look for CC:Gamma Night, the preset came with a 1.25 and that's what I left it at, I like it, but to brighten the nights up a little bit and not ruin the look of the enb and weather I recommend a setting of nothing lower then 1.15, anything lower starts to mess up the look, try 1.20

    This cleans up conflicts with the mods from my gameplay section
    Plugin Rule - jk conflict cleanup.esp / must load after / gameplay conflict resolution.esp

  • Survival Conflicts
    This cleans up conflicts with mods from my survival section

  • CFTO - IC - Dawnstar Patch
    This fixes bugs introduced when using the combination of these 4 mods together,
    Arthmoor's Dawnstar, Immersive Citizens, Carriage and Ferry Travel Overhaul, and Lux Via
    Plugin Rule - Set the following plugin rules
    CFTO - IC - Dawnstar Patch.esp / must load after / CFTO - Immersive Citizens Patch.esp
    CFTO - IC - Dawnstar Patch.esp / must load after / Lux Via - CFTO patch.esp

    There should be no plugins disabled at the end, remember as I mentioned at the beginning of my guide I have people disable plugins as they go and then enable them later because those plugins will have a missing masters, people have the tendency to boot the game and check stuff out as they install it and a plugin with a missing masters will cause a ctd on launch, any plugins not needed I had you go inside your mod staging folder and delete it.
LodGen
  • LodGen[stepmodifications.org]
    Click the link for xLODGen beta 98 or what ever the latest version number is and download it from the mega.nz link that sheson provided

  • Majestic Landscapes[www.nexusmods.com]
    Optional File - xLodGen Textures v2.0
    Rules - Place this After everything it conflicts with
    Note - Disable the Majestic Landscapes main file on the mods page in Vortex and

Dyndolod Summary Message
This section needs updating to go over what the current summary message is and I will get that added soon, but it is the same story, there is nothing you need to worry about here.

After your lod is done generating you will get a summary message, lets go over the warnings and errors that you can expect with my mod list and what they mean.

  • Deleted Reference
    ccbssse005 - goldbrand.esl
    ccbgsse016 - umbra.esm
    ccbgsse004 - beafarmer.esl
    Dawnguard.esm
    HearthFires.esm
    Update.esm
    These are UDRs, all from official game content, we do not clean official game files anymore, you can ignore these warnings.

  • File Not Found Scripts
    Error: File not found scripts\ccbgssse038_assassinenablescript.pex ccbgssse038-bowofshadows.esl ccBGSSSE038EnableTrigger [ACTI:FE020835]

    A missing script would cause the mod to not work, This warning is with the Bow of Shadows Creation Club mod, and the Unofficial Skyrim Creation Club Content Patches fixes this and you can ignore this warning.

  • Large Reference Bugs
    The majority of all these are from No snow under the roof mod along with a few other mods, the worst thing that can happen from a large reference bug is it can cause a flickering lod on the areas it reports, how to fix this and make dyndolod happy is to flag the mods plugins as an esm so it passes the large reference check, but not all mods are safe to flag as an esm, and I have not seen any issues in my lod from these warnings, so you can ignore these warnings.
Snow Patching
  • Mators xEdit Patching Framework[github.com]
    Click mxpf.zip top download, the extract it and place all the contents inside your Xedit folder

  • Better Dynamic Snow Patcher xEdit[www.nexusmods.com]

    Download this with a manual download, and extract the download and place the BetterDynamicSnowPatcher.pas into this folder Modding Tools/XEdit/Edit Scripts
    After launch Xedit from the Vortex dashboard and after everything loads in, right click on the left side and select Apply scripts, and in the drop down menu for Script, select BetterDynamicSnowPatcher and click Ok, name it snow patch and let it run and select Ok for everything it asks, after it done close Xedit and select Yes to save your changes, on the Plugins page in Vortex enable your snow patch.esp and select Manage Rules at the top and create this rule, after select Add, then Close and select Sort Now at the top.
    snow patch.esp / Must Load After/ dyndolod.esp
MCM Settings and Final Stuff
Any mods not mentioned here is because I changed nothing in the MCM on them.

When you first start a new game and you spawn in the Alternate Start Room, just hang out for a second and let the MCM stuff load in, once you stop getting the messages in the top left, set your MCM Menu up and make a save

All so pause the game and go to the Gameplay options and turn off all 3 of the Save options, you only need to be using new manual saves like I went over at the beginning of my guide, make sure and save often.

Go to the Audio settings and set up all your audio sliders up.

I can not test every start there is with Alternate Start mod, some starts may bug mods out and I play and recommend the vanilla start, ride the wagon in.

Load Order and Final Mod Count
SSE Loadorder Txt[drive.google.com]
Here is my load order txt, you are not going to be able to get all your plugins in the exact order as mine because of the way Vortex is and they do not need or have to be. Vortex uses Loot to sort plugins and as long as you set all the Plugin Rules I listed and changed the Groups on the ones I said to, and did not miss any files then you are good

If you installed everything on the Vortex mod page you should have 654 mod files installed, which really if you count all my texture repacks you have well over 1,200 mods installed. On the Plugins page you should have a total of 798 plugins, 199 active which are esps that count against the limit and 600 light plugins which are esms, esls and esps flagged as esls that do not count against the limit.

It would be great to see your take on an "open cities" build.

I am finishing up a Fallout New Vegas mod list update, hope to be done in a few days and then I am going to check out Nexus and see if I have all the SKSE updates I need that the game update broke, if I don't then rolling the game back to v1.5.97 is still on the table, It took me over 90 days of modding all day long everyday to build this mod list, I started on August the 29th and was just finishing up when the game update hit, it's an enormous mod list, close to 1,600 mods and I believe it was about 992 plugins, it's been thoroughly play tested by myself and 2 other mod authors, a lot of work and bug fixing went into to this and I am ready to get it posted as soon as I can
Goonz  [author] Dec 10, 2023 @ 2:23pm 
@Rosario
It's not that I suggest the AE content, it's that I had been using it so my conflict patches require those plugins, this new mod list I want be using all of it, after playing with the full AE Dlc I do not like it, I think most of those mods are stupid and if I was picking mods from Nexus I would not pick mods like these. This time I am not even using half of the CC content and on all of it, the quests are disabled and all the content and items are distributed throughout the game, I do use Skyrim Extended Cut - Saints and Seducers, that's a mod that overhauls Saints and Seducers and that's the only questing I will be doing from the AE Dlc
Rosario Dec 10, 2023 @ 1:16pm 
Last time I got that Skyrim itch, I was about 2/3 through the guide and then the anniversary edition came out and screwed everything up. I got disheartened and just dropped the game for a while, then I thought to myself, 'you know what? It's been a while, I think with the anniversary edition released and out for a while, what could they possibly update?' Got about 2/3 through the guide, and Bethesda decides, 'hey, we're updating the game again.'

Glad to hear there'll be another tried and true Goonz guide update on the way. I know that for this version the anniversary DLC isn't required, would you suggest it for the new guide for ease of installation if nothing else? Personally I'd rather turn off the stuff they gave us for free like Saints and Seducers, and don't care much for some of the other AE content, but if your guides suggest it, I'd say it'd be worth it for me.
Raven Dec 8, 2023 @ 12:43am 
@Goonz
Well sweet! Guess I'll hold off redoing New Vegas for just a bit then for that update too, thank you for your hard and excellent work!
Goonz  [author] Dec 7, 2023 @ 5:43pm 
@Raven
I am actually giving my New Vegas mod list an update right now while I wait and see whats going on with Skyrim, normally any game update they have done, there has always been another hotfix that follows and breaks everything again
Goonz  [author] Dec 7, 2023 @ 5:42pm 
I am debating on rolling the game back to v1.5.97, doing this I would lose nothing, you still play the game with the updated ESM's and any CC content you want, the difference is you play with the v1.5.97 executable, so I would lose nothing and actually gain access to a few mods that were never updated like No Grass In Objects, Combat Pathing Revolution, Ultimate Combat, the original Enhanced Camera that actually works right, and a few more. I have not decided but it's on the table.
Goonz  [author] Dec 7, 2023 @ 5:41pm 
@Minoris
Well wait until you see this new list, it is really awesome, it's a lot of mods, but will be easy to get installed. I actually had a little help this time and had a few people that installed it ahead of time to test things while I worked on the technical stuff and they were able to give me information, so I could get things fixed quicker.

I hope to share the new mod build soon, the game update was terrible timing, I have worked so much on this build, I want people to enjoy it, I did a lot of custom work on this mod build and I made a few very nice mods to go with it, while I wait on updates I went back to Fallout New Vegas, maybe a week tops and I am going to check it out and see if I got everything I need and then go from there.
Raven Dec 7, 2023 @ 5:11pm 
@Goonz

I managed to figure it out, I forgot to replace engine fixes part 1. It was still giving me an error saying it needs to be for an older version (its the same version: 640), and told me to exit game but it loads just fine to the main menu. Problem is, menu wont load any options (new, load, etc). Apparently this can be the result of some patch trying to load textures that aren't there... which... I have NO idea where to start looking on that front lol.

Looks like I chose the wrong time to hop in again haha, I'm glad to hear of an update on the way! I'll eagerly await that and start from scratch then :)

For now, I think I'll go back over your new vegas guide and play through that again, and figure out why steam apparently can't uninstall my skyrim now?

Thanks for the help and reply, you're awesome and my fav!
Minoris Dec 7, 2023 @ 4:48pm 
Me: *kinda itching to get back into Skyrim*
Goonz: New modlist soon!
Me: Welp, guess it can wait!

You're awesome dude. So many thanks for the insane amount of time you spend into this. You make modding Skyrim so damn easy it almost feels like cheating.
