OK, thanks. Thought there was something about the question that I was missing.

Just curious. The OP is apparently running Wine on Linux. I don't have an answer to his question, but it seems a legitimate question.

In my opinion, the answer to this question depends on the mods in question. Mods that change content in some substantial manner might be undesirable to start with. On the other hand, mods that improve the UI or "look and feel" of the game are benign. The mods I'm currently using are: A Quality World Map, Categorized Favorites Menu, Improved Skill Books, Item Sorting, Real Rain, Skyrim Flora Overhaul, SkyUI, and Quick Reflexes Bug Fix. Of these mods, only the 'Improved Skill Books' mod alters gameplay. I consider it a minor and desirable alteration, but your mileage may vary. The 'Quick Reflexes Bug Fix', on the other hand, is a no brainer if you're planning on taking tht perk. The other mods just make the vanilla UI more bearable. Personally, I would hate to play an totally unmodded game, mostly because the default UI really sucks for a PC with mouse and KB.

Just thought I'd resurrect this thread: After more than a year of not playing, I'm startting another game. Just bought the DLC (Dawnguard and Dragonborn). Currently at 1079 hours ... yes, I'm sure I was on the throne for many of those hours, but hey! I've never even finished the main quest, so maybe I'll do that this time around. :kiss: Mods I'm currently using: A Quality World Map, Categorized Favorites Menu, Improved Skill Books, Item Sorting, Real Rain, Skyrim Flora Overhaul, SkyUI, and Quick Reflexes Bug Fix. Any new stuff worth mentioning? Bethesda games always piss me off ... so many bugs, so little time. Yet I play them anyway! Still, it's not hard to understand why Elder Scrolls Online is suckage. The "let the modders fix it" development model just doesn't seem to work for MMO. The biggest problem with Skyrim, though, is finding the best point to stop improving your toon. Same problem with earlier ES games (at least III and IV), but not so pronounced in those games. Still, I love Skyrim! Mages rock! 1H S&B rocks -- love hitting things in the face with my shield, just like IRL! 2H rocks, too, but weapon blocks are just not as satisfying as shield blocks. :sad: Never really got into thieves .. "You'll make a fine rug, cat!" All in all, I'm looking forward to the next 1000 hours!
