Skyrim Anniversary upgrade Question?

[timmyWILLIAM]

Accidently put this topic in the wrong form so here I am now.

I was wondering if getting the anniversary upgrade in this day and age will mess up my mod list / root folder or if it's ok to just get whenever? Of course, I know not to get it in a middle of a playthrough I was planning on starting a new game with it. Also to note I'm not on a downgrade version of SSE I'm on the latest steam version with latest SKSE64 if that matters. Also is there anything special I should do if I do get it and mods/fixes to go with it etc etc.

Well, since no one has answered you yet, you get me again...

Go to the search box on any mod page in Skyrim SE, and type in "Anniversary", and do a second search for "Creation Club", then scan the results.  Once you have taken a look at them, then maybe you will be able to ask about specific mods.  One I would recommend for the upgrade is the 'Unofficial Skyrim Creation Club Content Patches' ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/18975 ), as they state it is to reduce bugs/glitches introduced by the upgrade's CC stuff.  Since I don't have the upgrade, I can't help you much more than that.  Otherwise, I don't think that the extra CC stuff will harm your game, UNLESS the .esp files added put you over the 254 non-light limit, OR one or two of your specific mods already on your LO have some problem(s) with it.  Might be easier to check the pages for the mods already on your list for any difficulties with the Anniversary Upgrade, on the 'Bugs' for each mod.  You could also try the comments on each mod page, but w/search recently disabled, it would be a real slog for the older/more popular mods.

BTW, if you order your search results by 'most unique downloads', it will give you the ones that are most popular at the top, or by 'most endorsed' to show which mods have users that care to support the mods.
