I don't use Hearthfires and Dragonborn since they have not been integrated in Requiem. By integrating I don't mean a compatibility patch that updates their stats, but rather the magic that Xarrian and Ogerboss have done to Dawnguard to make it feel part of the whole game.

I wouldn't use Dawnguard either if it wasn't for Requiem. In my opinion the vast majority of Bethesda's addons (since Morrowind) may introduce some interesting role playing elements but they also destroy the game balance by introducing inflated values to items and NPCs. One of the few exceptions: The Pitt for Fallout 3.

By the way, I am editing the post to (re)include Open Cities and the Unofficial Misc Patches. For the former I have finally fixed (and Arthmoor included the fix on the latest version) of a quest that really bugged me and in the latter the author has resumed his work.

Azirok has a patch for Immersive Armors and Immersive Weapons. He also has patches for some of the better mods out there, visiting his user page will give you a great starting point for a stable load order with must-have mods. Anything that he's made a Requiem patch for is worth taking a look at. Here's a link to Azirok's list of mods : http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/users/4464223/?tb=mods&pUp=1 . I especially recommend Guard Dialouge Overhaul ( Guards become respectful as you complete major feats of fame ) and Requiem-Dragonborn ( The main Requiem mod here does not yet support the Dragonborn DLC ) Make sure you also have Requiem-Resources ( a master .esp that contains the resources used by most of Azirok's mods ).

You are also going to want the Unofficial Skyrim Patch http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/19/? the Unofficial Hearthfire Patch http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/25127/? the Unofficial Dragonborn Patch http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/31083/? and the Requiem patch for the USKP patches found on the Requiem-Hard Times page http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/43849/? .

You seriously don't want to miss the Unofficial Patches. The amount of bugs and glitches still present after the last official update from Bethesda is nightmarish.

I noticed that during the starting scene the bandage on the mouth of Ulfric Stormcloack is missing and after escaping Helgen, the flying away dragon is not showing up. I don't know if that means there are some conflicts, or just a minor glitch.

The missing bandage might have to do something with an armor mod: the bandage is like a hood or circlet and should be visible on Ulfric.

I don't know what might cause the missing dragon, but you better resolve such things before spending many game hours and then find out your configuration has game breaking bugs.

Hey guys, I come here seeking guidance. My gameplay is going to be based on the Requiem, so this would be the best place to ask. I'm sorry for the post being lengthy, and I hope someone will be so nice as to take a look at the mods I'd like to include additionally. I have gone through the compability thread, but there are plenty mods that weren't mentioned there (maybe because they obviously CAN or obviously CANNOT work with Requiem - that's what I need to know).

 

First of all - I don't need any huge consistency. I love new content, I love quests, if a quest doesn't give me some hugely OP items (or isn't ridiculously hard), I'm fine with it following different rules than the original. As long as it's not breaking anything (including balance in the long run!). So I'm okay with Dragonborn or unofficial quests being different in feel than the fully requiemized parts of the game

 

Secondly - it's my first time modding Skyrim, so if I chose some total borkage mod, let me know (I did my best to only get the high-rated stuff with trusted opinions, but you never know). I may also not be aware of some things stepping on each other's toes. That's why I need advice.

 

I'm going to start a brand new game, so no other mods will be included.

 

I have attempted to sort the mods category-wise for the purpose of this thread. This is not my load order, I haven't installed the mods yet, but these are all that I plan on using (unless someone strongly recommends something).

BASHED PATCH NEEDED, YES?

 

I tried to avoid any mods tampering with any bigger sort of rules, like magic or sneaking (that had no compatibility patch like the bartering mod).

 

Do tell, about those small mods that can introduce tweaks (like two rings & similar small boodeengos), do they go after Requiem in the load order? Or better not risk it and put them earlier?

 

Thanks to anyone who can lend me a hand! :*

In response to post #16379955.

A few remarks on some mods:

-ENB/Climates of Tamriel - depending on the settings they might cause trouble with imagespace modifiers, which Requiem uses for poisons, diseases and nightvision, can afaik be overcome by tuning the settings
-pure mesh/texture mods (no esp) are fine
-Race Menu works fine
-Helmet toggle screws up Requiem's script init, please install later, after Requiem's scripts have been initialized (you will get a messagebox notification about this)
-Quest mods that add new quests (instead of editing existing ones) should be technically compatible, but will likely be imbalanced without patch
-Cloaks of Skyrim is compatible with Requiem 1.7.3
-Bandoliers is also compatible, but imbalanced with the default carry weight bonuses

[Miraklum]

Could Requiem be compatible with something as simple as this?
