It's worse, Solitude HD and Riften HD have been deleted too. I have Solitude downloaded but not Riften or Landscape Overhaul. Are you looking at alternatives? (sounds like a new version is needed) Just picked this guide up and decided to go thru it, see how it compares to N0rdic's and the YASHed guides. Looks good so far, a Vortex guide is definitely needed to help compare against MO2.

I spose it's time for Happy New Year All! And who wouldn't be happy winning a game from GOG!

Better than a Loot Box!

I'm fairly new to Skyrim modding myself but I've put the effort into reading a lot. I would have liked a heads-up early on so here's what I'm seeing so far. It seems you are still unsure about which mods to have and with the beasty machine you have I would forget about Skyrim and just use Skyrim SE. I doubt you would miss the SKSE-based mods as it seems you are looking more for meshes, textures, reshades and maybe ENB's for the best-looking game possible. SE is 64-bit so it can access more main memory, has higher res textures and is much more stable (probably from having no memory issues, possibly because no SKSE-based mods yet). From comments I've read quite a few people are now completely uninstalling classic Skyrim (aka LE, Legendary Edition or Oldrim) and just using SE. If you go this route, the best thing I can suggest is to use the SEPTIM guide found here That guide takes you from start to finish. Make sure you check the comments section, over 4000 so plenty of people are there with problems and solutions. Also check the LOOT posts for people's load orders. Learn to use the search function if you have issues, it helps. The SEPTIM guide is 6 months old so could use an update but if you have a look through the first few pages of posts there you can find links to other people load orders which show more or different mods. Now, reviewing your list of mods I do see sexlab framework which I assume is SKSE-based. If that's important to you then you may want to stick with Oldrim and follow the info in DaddyDirection's post. At this point I would say start again with SE, clean install and follow that guide. Expect issues as mods change and conflicts can happen. But search for answers before asking. Most of all, learn, learn, learn.

Should have a sticky on all subforums for this question...

In response to post #50022052. #50023972, #50027932 are all replies on the same post. I like that the Vortex will be sucking a mass of mods from the Nexus down to our devices and allowing us to dip our hands into that swirling mess to use what we want when we want. Hopefully without also getting dragged in...
