Up to date Skyrim build?

[GimmeBACON]

Laptop died on me and I've been out of the Skyrim modding loop for over 6 months. Built a new gaming rig and am looking to rebuild. I'm looking to make it as up to date as possible with mod compatibility (I have a feeling I'll have lost some, unfortunately)

A.) I'm hoping there's an all-in-one collection that'll get the game stable. Retextures/NPC's/Clothes I'll get as I go.

B.) I never had the nerve to learn Nemeisis, is there a simple guide out there? Also, how does it work with adult mods?

 

Thanks in advance.

You've been around this site long enough to know that mod packs and collections aren't a thing here. There is an excellent guide in the SE section along with a compatibility thread and 'SE for Beginners' thread.

Welcome back.

 

For B, see this guide. And for A, there is no more detailed one than this, I dare say.

While this may not be helpful depending on your budget, condition of the storage device what has happened in the past 6 months, but one mistake a lot of people do when a computer "dies" is they assume the storage device is a goner too. Just because your GPU dies, does not mean the files on your SSD/HDD/M.2 are gone. If you still have the old storage device, there's a USB adapter for every kind of drive imaginable, more recently even the "new" NVME ones. They're not that expensive either. Also any even semi-competent computer repair shop will have these and would be able to restore important files to a USB stick or something similar. Finding one such repair shop may be more difficult than buying the adapter though - actually repairing computers kinda went out of fashion 10 years ago.

 

Edit: ...and I suppose walking into a repair shop and asking them to restore your big-titty mods is... well you'd probably have to have quite a lot of confidence to do it lets put it that way.

Consider Pandora instead.

I'm aware, I was asking if there's packs out there in general that people knew of.

I backed up all my files on a USB stick, I meant to say I'll likely lose some mods because mod authors stopped updating and Bethesda keeps breaking our toys.

 

Didn't even know about Pandora, I'll be looking into it. Thanks.
