poblivion Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Of course, it depends on the performance of your graphics card, but some ENB would definitely improve the look. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/41482
hizirin Posted August 10, 2020 Author Posted August 10, 2020 i downloaded some mods now i am trying to install first one the unofficial patch the read me says there should be a data file option in the launcher but it doesn't appear for me i searched the internet and found it is not supposed to be there for Special Edition how can i organize the files without it then ?? Your load order should start like this once it has been installed correctly: Skyrim.esm Update.esm Dawnguard.esm HearthFires.esm Dragonborn.esm Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch.esp [Everything else you have installed] edit : i used mod installer instead to install things for me
drttoldman Posted August 12, 2020 Posted August 12, 2020 Hi hizirin I guess you are very new to modding Skyrim . This is a HUGE topic since Skyrim is the most modded and has the most mods 60,000 available of any video game. Also in one of your later notes you mention you have Skyrim Special Edition. So I will start there . Concise Skyrim Modding Guide 2020 has a good setup list you might copy that page to Word pad and use it as a check list and make notes of any problems or results of mods as you test them out. Just put spaces and dates in it so you will know just where you are in the modding process its your own log of your game progress. You first need to study the specifications of your computer then include that information with questions that are as general as your are asking. Because the power of your computer relates directly to what sort of mods you can use and how how good they look. As for age I am old too 70 as a matter of fact so i understand the amount of information you are finding for a game with about 60,000 custom mods. The best way to get started maybe is to go to Youtube and in the search bar type Skyrim SE beginners guide . There are many of them some of the best are by Gopher and Gamer Poets and look at them. I put a couple links to guides that were well done. If you find them really helpfull like and or subscribe to them. Now one of the first things you will need is a mod manager. There are many of them the best is ModOrganizer there are 2 of them the most modern is Mod Organizer 2 and its the one you want to use with SkyrimSSE because it is 64bit and has better memory support and it was designed with Skyrim SSE in mind. I hope you like reading because for modding you really have to read a lot. Here are a few guides you can try. 1. Beginner's Guide to Modding Skyrim A collection of SSE Modding Guides : skyrimmods - Reddit This is reddit it has lots of good setup information and lists of tools you will need. It is a pain cus it is hard to naviagate 2. Concise Skyrim Modding Guide 2020 this is at Nexus and its easy to browse for mods from here. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/38334 I haven't used this but it looks good and seems current. 3. SexLab Light SE: Beginner-Friendly Installation Guide (Sexualise your Skyrim Special Edition) . This looks pretty good and it has links to dirty mods and i know you want them cus your here . Even if you don't use these guides save links to them because they tell you where the good mods are and Lovers lab is pretty hard to navigate in my opinion https://www.loverslab.com/tags/comprehensive/ 4. guide Skyrim SE for Beginners - V 2.1.9 (3BBB and HDT-SMP) by Aylis this is pretty good and the mod links are time savers https://www.loverslab.com/tags/guide/ 5. Beginner's Guide to Modding Skyrim - Part 1 : The ... - YouTube this is a good video by Gopher it helps because you can see what things look like. If you like it there should be a series of them. Stay with Mod Organizer for Bethesda games Use VORTEX for other none Bethesda games . 6. Skyrim SE : Installation & Setup : Start to Finish by gamerpoets Skyrim : Installation & Setup : Start to Finish - YouTube 7. Finally this site is very valuable because it shows how to do Skyrim coding for proxies and ini's Welcome to the STEP Wiki, the complete reference for the Skyrim Total Enhancement Project! This site has all the best technical information but its tough reading for me. https://wiki.step-project.com/Main_Page Well that should get you started or very confused LOL sorry its not personal. Now heres a couple personal tricks that i use. First download .7z a free open source archive tool. It can unzip files you have downloaded. Also you can use it to make a backup copy of any file that you may change during modding. Like an >.INI< file or anything and it can stay right next to the original no problem. Also when you have a web page with a lot of information and links and shortcuts like a guide get your Internet Explorer out and save the page use save as .MHTML this will save the page as a single file with everything you see trust me this is very handy if you don't already know about it. You might want to save every page that you download a mod cus it will have all the info when you go what the hell did that say to install the mod or where is that quest . I'm sure that won't happen to you but i get lost in Skyrim all the time being a old guy with a shit memory having good notes saves me a lot of time. Well good luck and have fun CHEERS!

drttoldman Posted August 13, 2020 Posted August 13, 2020 Hello Hizren you have a great laptop about the same as my desktop I got a Gtx 1060 2 yrs back and it was the best move i ever made really. If you are an experienced gamer its not as big a deal but i usually reccomend a play through unmodded then mod it to see the dramatic changes that Bethesda has allowed in their games by including the construction kit. Skyrim is pretty famous mostly because it was the first almost photo graphic quality animation plus the construction kit that allows amateurs to create mods. Hell some people and groups have made whole new stories and games with the platform. If you have more than 1 person gaming on your computer that wants to play Skyrim you can use mod organizer to set up an extra game for them to try that won't break the game you are playing. Mod Organizer is very handy for all kinds of testing and building mods too. Lexy's guide is one of the good ones. Its really several people and Lexy. Follow the hints about back ups and Make a clean save when you add big mods so if you don't like them you can back up to the save and pull the mod. In fact when you start a new game or start modding always begin modding after the tutorial when you clear Helgin dungeon Unbound thats a good neutral place to start a replay or add appearance mods. Oh when modding breaks your game think of fixing it as part of the adventure and not a disaster. Because it happens. If you have a good save you can just pull bad mods out and go on your way. If you are ever browsing Youtube type MXR he's a kid that showcases mods on Skyrim and now on Fallout 4 he shows the mods and does jokes but he explores a lot of mods that you might never see other wise. Also when you've finished a couple play throughs. Try Rigmor its a pretty big mod its practically a DLC and its one of the best on Skyrim because its such a well done story. Enjoy!
hizirin Posted August 14, 2020 Author Posted August 14, 2020 i spent 12+ hours on lexy's guide and i finally made the game look good without changing the mechanics of the gameplay or adding more skills and perks if i was able to bear the ugliness of the vanilla i wouldn't have searched for mods i think i will pass on that i am at white run and i got 3 OSA OSEX adult celebrities i tested them and all work i am almost done with testing the mods then i will enable what is needed for original story walkthrough yeah i found mxr on one of mods reviews most of his videos are NSFW and i am at family house until college for now so i will pass on watching him more lexy's guide was very helpful this part specifically https://lexyslotd.com/guide/prerequisites/ THANKS U FOR HELPING Edit : don't u have a link the to children of skyrim i can't find it and it's hidden on nexus and i have another question related to osex : npc females look busty and curvy in clothes when i use osex and undress them they become skinny but the added npcs from adult celebrities doesn't do that how can i fix that ??
drttoldman Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Hi again Hizirin . Glad your getting the swing of this modding thing. In a way its like why minecraft is one of the most popular games in history and yet its stupid ugly but thats not the point its cus you get to make it your way and its a diversion that is a challenge and a learning experience. You have skyrim SE its the modern game and the difference between that and my game is that the original game was designed for windows Xp which is 32bit. That means the game was designed for an environment limited to 4gigs of memory . Anyway that started all kinds of tricks to keep the game going without crashing and a lot of the early mods were all about that SE is 64bit and was built after win7 came out and allowed 64 gigs and this permitted the big video cards and started most gaming rigs having 16gb of ram which is the sweetspot now i am thinking about 32 for my machine but its really fine i just use a lot of memory leaving too many browser windows open. BTW most browsers now are built on the chrome platform and they use a lot more memory specially with every page having a video on it. Oh about MXR LOL hes just some kid who actually just makes those stupid videos for a living the earliar ones were less adult but skip that he used to show new mods and it was handy. Ok all that being said its possible to not use a mod manager but you really should as well as SkyUI thats the modern game interface or tool bar i guess you could say. And once you get used to the change its really a lot better and it will show more items in your inventory. So I would really use that one for the same reason everybody tells you to use SKSE the skyrim script installer tool that is required because game makers use it to make their mods because skyrim can't do many things that it permits. Then there is tools like loot what it does is build a mod list that helps stop mods from overwriting each other. the same with Mod Organizer it gives the ability to set a load order and keep it. For example your problem with the clothes that happens because i'm guessing you have the standard vanilla (means original) skyrim body with underwear not removeable and not the body replacer that the clothes are based on. Think of this in skyrim there is a man woman and child body and the game changes heads on them. well the game has a body called a mesh that has a big but and big breasts that are invisible and the clothes are made for that body. Thats what the UNP CCB letters mean in the title. Usually the body replacers are nude but there are some that will be labeled nsfw but those are usually not the busty and curvy mods. The young men that never had a girl friend like those. Personally I lke the UNP replacer it is skinney and not very curvy but its what i use. I can tell to ways to fix the problem one is to get the body replacer A A suggests or see if there is a UNP version of osex but i don't think so i didn't like that one cus the girls are too fat for me . Later when you are more advanced and have played the game more you could go in to the mod files and switch the meshes(frames) and the ( textures) skins. But its easy to get in trouble doing that you should be just getting your game to run well for now . Modded games break all the time. Oh also when you have mod problems don't forget to look at the Mod comments tab thats the first place to look for answers about mod problems. You mentioned you wern't going to mess with game mechanics I Usually stay vanilla on that guys that have done several play throughs usually do that stuff because the game is getting too easy for them. I would reccomend using SkyUi if i didn't already. I usually don't give mod lists because they are a matter of taste its like saying if I would choose your car or your girl friend. answer maybe maybe not. but this is a short list of some NPCs and some followers and some landscaping mods that i always use and you might like them too. First is landscaping these mods make the towns look nicer they add trees and plants. Aplestormy does these and they make the cities look nice there are several im listing the whiterun one if you use the nexus search term Towns and Villages Enhanced https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/19799 you will find the other 5 when you like. By the way modders suggest only adding one mod at a time then play to make sure it didn't break anything. This is a very nice house near Whiterun Stable called Elysium Estate https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/33939 Ok now for some more attractive Females but not so curvy. There is 3 of them try one or all they are all NPCs in your game Bijin NPCs https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/71054 Bijin Warmaidens https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40038 Bijin Wives https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/63473 These are 2 of my favorite Followers. They have stories and quests just stuff to do. First Tania the Hermit shes japanese and sings and is a healer thats handy in fights https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/58670 Vilja in Skyrim by Emma. She is more of a companion than just a follower. And she is one of the most famous skyrim mods. She started out in TES 4 Oblivion and was the best follower in that game too. She is one of the most sophisticated mods in the game. Also there is a lot of appearance replacements if you want her to look different https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/26393 You mentioned kid mods I don't usually mess with the kids except i give them money if they are begging as far as mods go they are problematic the construction set won't mod them you can't kill them and you can't change change their clothes cus of porn laws. Most child mods are really skyrim adults that have bin down scaled in other words shrunk and that causes trouble so nobody does much with them cus in the past a bunch of laws got passed and now pretty much mods . Ok forget that i just did a search for children in the nexus search and there was lots of children maybe the one you wanted had some strike or the modder wanted somethingi dunno. Heres 2 child mods you can try, 1. RS Children Overhaul https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/55555 carefull this mod makes them killable and vampires are tough in skyrim 2. Immersive Children https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/83554?tab=description this looks ok too but remember lots of mods don't look near as good as the pics but i hope it helps .. Personally as far as kids are concerned in skyrim save the money and buy beer at the Inn 3, Oh here is a Follower manager that i use it helps when you want to change followers gear in the inventory and other stuff . https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/12933 Oh shit i forgot that you are using SE. Many of these old mods have been Ported (Imported) from the old game to the newer but a lot haven't so sorry if i made a mistake .
