Hello all, first off allow me to introduce myself. My name is Gary and im a 43 yr old "part time" gamer from Canada.."eh" :thumbsup: . Love home theater and gaming and have been deeply involved in both hobbies when and as much as i can. Life still allows me some time to game and mod which is good. Been gaming since the NES days and have had a full out PC gaming rig for a good while ( spent more way money then this adult should have on it lol ) since the days of my ps2. So i have done a fair amount of mod installing with Crysis and such and am reasonably competent with this modding thing and with PCs in general. I am not known for my patients how ever lol as after some time i get grumpy when things just keep failing in game. I wasn't born to be a programmer or related i can tell you that much. So i have been on here for some time gathering up mods for Skyrim and never really posted on the forum , well until now. I have been fighting with about 35 mods and had it running good but now issues have come up and this fella just cant for the life of me get it to run like it did .Thus time to call in the masters. Were would i post a thread on finding the proper mod installation order ? Looking for help in getting my 35 mods installed in the correct order and with a couple other issues that have popped up in Skyrim.

 

PS- Yes my typing and grammar skills are not perfect so dont hold it against me lol. I know the title is buggered up but hit post before i noticed it. Cant edited it now unless i missed how.

 

Nice to meet you all and thanks in advance. :cool:

Fixed that for you. You observed right, you can't change it after you posted it, but when you "report" your opening post and request the title of your topic to be changed, one of your friendly neighborhood moderators might just do it for you. :thumbsup:

[master2g]

Ah yes many thanks my friend. I will learn much here. :thumbsup:.

Welcome from someone who hasn't even posted in this section yet, even to introduce himse

Going back to your issues, I can offer a couple of hopefully helpful links. You're in luck, people have been refining skyrim mods and methods for some time now... I haven't played in a couple of years but when I inevitably go back I will be well-defended against frustration.

How to ask for help - this is written for the Skyrim Technical Support (not to do with mods) forum. This information can often be of use when asking for support with mods in Skyrim Mod Troubleshooting.

Some of the info asked for in these posts can get pretty big and take up a lot of space in a post, making it hard to read or annoying to scroll past. This can be avoided by using spoilers like you see below. Members can click to expand what you've hidden inside them.

 

 

Posting your Load Order from NMM

If you want to put text like Load Order into a spoiler then follow the arrows in this picture. You can usually move 'windows' like this Special BBCode box by clicking on the 'title bar' at the top and dragging it around.

This is a pictorial example of how to get your Load Order from Nexus Mod Manager (NMM).

Pasting load order:
I like seeing a text load order because I can Search it,
and see it in the Nexus Forums color scheme.
Thanks for considering doing this in future posts.
You can export your plugins list easily with NMM:

 

• Click the 'Plugins' tab above the Green (+) sign.
• Click the button with the Right-Arrow pointing out of the icon.
• Choose "Export to the clipboard".

That is very good info and help. Many thanks.

*waves* Hi Gary! I am a 44 year old Mother who both reads and pecks perfect typos so no worries there.

 

Welcome to our little corner of the internet. I hope you will find your time here enjoyable. The links above are helpful for sure. As a former moderator here I have a bit of a soft spot for the Terms of Service (I know weird) so you might want to take a gander at that thing you were supposed to read before (as I am sure you did! :P )

 

Anyway if you have questions don't hesitate to post. Lots of stuff here and it isn't always easy to figure out where things are. Poke around and check it all out. I have about 248 mods running in Skyrim currently but I don't use any overhauls or anything. I enjoy modding my games until they break. Only then do I feel like I have fulfilled my purpose. ha ha ha

 

Again welcome! Have fun, put your patience hat on when necessary and sally forth!

"waves" back :cool: , Hello Lisnpuppy. Lol. yea typos are indeed my two finger specialty. Thanks and i will do. I about to post in regards to 2 problems im having asap. Trying a few more things first. Its aggravating when mods dont cooperate with the game and i only run 39. I have my patience hat on but its crumpled badly :ermm: . Take care.
