Skyrim mods manual install and Steam Workshop?

[Phyriks]

I bought Skyrim awhile ago and for a long time I have been using the Steam Workshop Subscriber system to get mods. A lot of the mods there weren't really interesting to me except a few until I saw the mods in the Nexus mods. I also heard some not so good things about the Steam Workshop system. Not only do I have no clue how to manually install mods for skyrim, I also don't know if ones from the workshop and from here can work together? How do you manually install mods and will the two platforms clash somehow?

it is best to not use the ones on Steam as they can and more then likely will break your game.

 

to install mods using the Nexus most have install instructions on the description page WHICH YOU SHOULD ALWAYS READ. I strongly recommend downloading and installing the Nexus Mod Manager though for mods.

 

also in the future, please post in the correct forum: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?c=411,419

I did not even notice there was a forum specifically for Skyrim. Sorry. Thanks! I'll be sure to remember that. Thanks again for your help.
