Perhaps I need another look into my mod list

[bachelorbookworm]

So it seems I cannot reach above 25 fps. That's at best. its frustrating. I'm hoping some kind souls will help me cull my mods and maybe refine it.

I know that I could just start afresh but I really would rather avoid that if I can. I am considering uninstalling SkyRe and Duel if it would drastically speed up my game. i wonder if I have too many mods that do similar things.

I apologize if my boss list is cluttered and noobish. Please take a look and help me out.

I am guessing a few of these must conflict or be redundant. Any advise would be appreciated.

Wow, I don't even know where to begin with this one. But I'll give it a shot.

 

First of all, your rig isn't nearly capable of running that many high res texture mods and scripted mods. You really need to cut down on those drastically. As far as conflicts, you have quite a few.

 

Really your best bet at this point is to uninstall all of these, uninstall and do a clean reinstall your game, and start a new game while slowly adding mods one at a time to see how they work for you.

 

Sounds of Skyrim definitely needs left out. Way too many broken saves and issues with those.

 

If you decide to start clean then here's a little advice on using mods. Make sure to read the entire description page, all the readmes, and also read the comments to see if people are having any trouble with that particular mod. Add one mod, test it thoroughly in game and if it works fine then go to the next. If you do run into a conflict this makes it much easier to track down. Also when installing a mod check the description page for any special uninstallation instructions. Some need console commands to stop the running scripts or other things done first in order to not break your game.

 

This looks like you just installed everything you thought looked good and while I understand the temptation to do that, using mods is a risky business. It is worth the time to do a little research first before diving into any mod. Good luck and if I can help with anything let me know.

[bachelorbookworm]

Well I appreciate the advice. Tonight Ill begin again from scratch. Its a shame, Any thoughts on what mods i should use to get the best performance without too much visual loss?

[Staind716]

You could always give the STEP guide a look through and see if that interests you. All these mods have been thoroughly tested together and work with no problem. Just be careful on the high resolution mods because they will hit your fps. I personally use the 1024 versions for big areas like landscapes, trees, that type of thing and the higher res for armors, weapons, and smaller items. Here's a link if you want to give it a shot. I don't use everything in here but I do use it as a base for my game.
