DungeonBird Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Hello I'm not a newbie but I played skyrim a long time ago. finished 30% from mainquest than stopped. (those addons were not released yet by that time). Now I wanted to start a new venture with the Legendary Edition. but wonder what it looks like with the very many mods available now. today one quickly loses track. Can you help me there? without mods? or what mods one must definitely have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AeroModss Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I would reccomend you first of all SkyUI 5.Then Unofficial patches for Skyrim and all DLCs.Then I would download Skyrim2k or other retexturing mods,then A quality World map and Solstheim map,then Static Mesh Improvment.Then I would download sound mods,like Sounds of Skyrim.Then ( xD ),I would download mods like CBBE or UNP,then Schlongs of Skyrim or Smooth male textures,Realistic water two or other water mods,some tree and flora mods like Vurt Flora Overhaul or Tamriel Reloaded Tree,some particle mods,lighning mods like Realistic Lighning Overhaul,then Supreme Storms and mods like that,Realistic needs and diseases.Armour and weapon retexturing mods,like Book of Silence,Immersive Armors and Immersive Weapons and at last some good ENB,I would reccomend K ENB,PureVision,RealVision,Sharpshooters ENB and others.Later you can download some other mods that change some smaller and more detail things :D And remember,always read description when downloading mods :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boombro Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) Most of these are not must have at all. Just visually. What do you want out of your Skyrim? A survival game, a hardcore fighting game, or walking in the park sim? Edited August 27, 2015 by Boombro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boombro Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 where a user would nowadays says damn 90% finished i should have gotten such and such mod to begin with.So you want a complete package at the start? You kind of worded badly here. For textures, you can use SMC. It will make your texture mods into one package to use as one mod. For enbs, what look do you prefer? Colorful, real like, clean, bleak? A bit of fighting? So some light mods are duel - Combat Realism makes them smart, deadly combat is tweak able, action combat is more action-ish while revenge of the enemies is adds more flashy. Genesis - Dynamically Increased Enemy Spawns and Loot for a good time. Must have:Better MessageBox Controls.Better MessageBox Controls.Vendor Sale Delay - GONE.Ambient Seagulls - Ambient Seagulls.Auto Unequip Ammo.Improved closefaced helmets. And favorite class?
