Compare your skyrim folder size.

[aljustineg]

213 gig i didnt know it was that big  must be some 1000 SS i have stored in it 

[zniachtl]

My steamapps\common\Skyrim\  directory is exactly 2,4% the size of my (all full length movies) porn directory:

Means my Skyrim is at 38,6 GB  

 

Only core + installed mods

 

DLs elsewhere, backups elsewhere

[mns]

73,5 GB   

[alpalia]

21,5gb  and  64,5Gb 

 

yup, 2 installation of skyrim...1st one is legit steam small modded, second one is non steam high/medium modded one..

best way for avoid trouble and hours to "verifying game cache" via steam lol

[Thorham]

14.5 GB

[YoNanja]

Whoa looking at some of these I think I should've gotten a bigger ssd,

 

For now my mo mods folder is only at 28gb tho. :9

[Leytra]

You think you got problems. 174 GB for my Nexus Folder, 188 GB for my actual skyrim folder without the base game (I have some workshop stuff) and doesn't actually run anymore, I CTD on startup and after fixing that no onger can move my mouse. Side note: Does anyone know how to make the damn tiefling mod work? It's what broke my game, was stable before that, removing doesnt help.

[---nikoli]

Only 34.5 Gigabytes of active mods, but another 1.15 Terabytes of inactive mods, works in progress, and various Skyrim related items on one of my external drives.

 

If my properties is reading everything correctly then I have 155,389 folders with 4,027,406 files... 

 

I'm thinking it might be time to thin the herd. 

[Vykroft]

35,6 MO and 8,73 GB Skyrim (didn't download the "HiRes" texture pack)

[oticon]

185GB on my D drive, my edited Dragon-born files on my E: drive are peaking at 202gb's and my actual game files and 3rd install of Skyrim on my J: drive comes to 182.01 GB's all total 405Gb's

[Shadowscale]

When I deleted my Skyrim folder to start a new I noticed it was at 28 GB.

[rwbyrose]

I have 30 gigs, mostly armors, weapons and retextures. I am scared about quest and other scrip mods

[LaEspada]

I have a 63.6 GB Mod Organizer folder (not including mods in storage) & 8.50 GB Skyrim Data folder.

 

Fun

[NickNozownik]

I didn't reinstall Skyrim in about 3 or 4-5 years. It's 47,1GB big. No MO or NMM, I just dumped everything into my data folder. Most of my mods are gameplay improvements. I didn't use any ultra TNT 8K wooden bowl textures because my laptop sucks penis.

 

Offtopic rant. I recently used LOOT and it fucked up my load order. Before using LOOT it was fine, but after using it my game crashes every time I load a game with a Vaalsark/Lykaios NPC in the same cell. Also, it completely ignored all of the killable children mods and kids are completely immortal again thanks to LOOT. So fuck LOOT, organize your load order by yourself.

[Shirobako]

Game + mods = 62gb

Mod download folder = 27gb

Screenshots in bmp = 7gb

[stwasabi]

13GB for the Base Game and 19GB for the Mod Organizer folder with 112 ESP's.

[Eikichi Onizuka]

Skyrim install folder is 65,7 GB  (Skyrim Legendary Edition + installed mods, HD re-textures, Etc..)

 

255 active ESP (over 300 mods in-game)

 

NMM skyrim folder is 93,3 GB (about 3300 mods)

but I have several hundred mods outside of NMM folder

[Guest]

32 GB including Skyrim and all DCLs

[Effie]

Only 54gb, but it was a hell to transfer it from one pc to another when I took over my bf's haha

[Kain82]

I only got 48.4 gb including Skyrim and all DLC's, with 241 mods installed and 183 active mods.

[Antrox]

60GB, 255 Active Plugins 334 Mods total.

[Cynthia Firespark]

A meager 20gb right now - used to be well over 100 before this reinstall, oh the days of glory (and load times)...

[hazarada]

31.8GB @ 170 mods, um.. I guess I don't have that many textured mods?

[RmX93]

Game Folder 22GB

Mods 5GB (80mods)

[Berain666]

I maxed out my 240gb hdd with many many merged plugins(over 350 total mods.)  Ive got it stable though and for the most part it looks better than many games that just came out as I have every 4k mod I could find.  It looks amazing on my 4k Monitor.  Now if i could just get a single video card that would keep it at 60fps..
