Hey, Tulsa - I appreciate your reply, and your help. I have things running a bit better now thanks to your suggestions. I've a few more mods to download to build my game back to where it was. You're absolutely right, I need to learn the basics. I'm not even sure what I'm doing with Windows 10. It'd been a whole year since I'd bothered considering returning to Skyrim and the mods. Coming back, it was shock to realise how much I'd forgotten, or didn't even know. Thanks again for your help. Take Care, Bear.

Hey, Guys - I've been away from Skyrim since October of 2016. My computer had gone tits up. I'd just got it back, repaired, this last weekend, and I've been trying to mod my Skyrim game the way I'd had it. I've never really been competent with modding. I had a friend who walked me through most of it, but she and I aren't friends anymore, so I'm turning to strangers for help. I think my issues may stem from a load order problem. I'm unable to find LOOT on either Steam or Nexus. I'll just write out what I have and the way the Mod Manager has it loaded.

I'm just trying to be as thorough as I think I can be. These are all my mods listed on the Nexus Mod Manager. I'm also fairly certain I'd downloaded Wrybash, but it doesn't appear. When I activate RND, when I turn on the game, there's a flash of the load screen, and then CTD. There is no animation when smoking the pipe. As the game begins, I receive the message, 'Dual Sheath Redux Patch Data Not Detected Please run the SkyProc patcher and activate the esp file.' And I don't know what that means. At this point, I'm going to deactivate Dual Sheath Redux til I get a response to this. These are my issues with the game, all I can remember anyway. As I'd said, I think most of comes down to load order. I appreciate any help anyone can give. Thanks, Bear.

I want to add my thanks to the modders. There is some excellent, professional quality work out there. The time and effort that went into these mods show. Thank you.

I hear what you're saying, and I almost agree. My first character duel wielded as well, my second an archer/light skirmisher type fellow. The Axe of Whiterun is a disappointment when one can't use it effectively. However, the Jarl places a great deal of honour on that ax. I always thought of it as the Character being honoured, not pampered to. My first character keeps the Axe of Whiterun on the weapon plaque in Breezehome. He only carries it with him when he's wandering about town. Also, the Jarl isn't going to let you chose your own Housecarl. Here! Just take Irileth. He gives the character the Housecarl he deems most worthy of the honour, and one whom he believes you're most worthy of. The only disappointment I've ever had with the Housecarls is that there's not a real story behind them, perhaps a personal mission/quest. I agree with what you're saying about Breezehome. Though personally I was never disappointed with it. It was damned expensive though. A badge of office (other than the Axe of Whiterun) would be awesome, a ring and/or unique clothes. A uniform that only the Thane would be allowed to wear.
