emieri00 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 So! I've played Skyrim for a couple hundred hours already, have 3 main characters between levels 30~50... And there's still stuff to do! Specially with the upcoming DLC. That said, I want some help figuring things out in here, like what can I do to enhance the visuals just a little more, maybe some nice functions and the like. Here is my load order [with some unnecessary/inactive things removed, and some anotations of my own. Skyrim.esm ActiveUpdate.esm Active* Contains dirty edits: 52 ITM, 1 UDR records.

Just got the files. Alchemic Tomes.esp Active - hint on where to place this? Aside from the listed mods, I'm sure it's wise to say what ELSE is being used, right? Well, SKSE and Script Dragon, the Wilds ENB [not the climates of tamriel version, the normal version. Much more colorful.] hialgoBOOST, some texture, models and animations replacers [few ones, like CHSBHC body, different silver swords and greatswords, better clutter items, hd world textures - not the official one - that sort of thing.] Anyway, most of it will probably remain untouched, I believe. So, now comes what I want to do.There are some things I always wanted but never got around to installing - here's the list. Birds and Flocks [hearthfire edition]Birds of SkyrimExpanded Jewelry Crafting - or something that allows me to keep crafting circlets and other jewelsHalls of DovandorHome Construction and Decoration + Dawnguard addonLanterns of skyrim / climates of Tamriel editionRainbowsShooting StarsskyBirdsSkyrim Flora OverhaulSupreme Storms - This is the reason I deactivated the 'more rain' esp [made by Zappoo]. Not sure if they work together.The Dark Brotherhood RessurrectionXP32 maximum skeleton [for having more options when creating my custom race, and have everyone in the game use it anyway. It worked well on Oblivion...] So, what are your recomendations, besides keeping the game and mods updated? Is there any sort of incompatibility I'm not aware of? Anything I shouldn't use? Remember that this is for a NEW playthrough, so I'm mostly dropping my older saves forever and starting new characters. This means, no whining about how "my save got broken" or the like.
