Skyrim have thousand of mods here at Nexus and there's very hard to check them all, but I spent some time and did this - from the 1st till the last page (I'm not joking hehe) of all the mods on Nexus and chosen almost everything you need to transform your game and also to have some variants of similar mods to choose from. My goal is a complete guide to save other people time that they can have a complete base list of mods for ultrarealistic graphics and challenging, nextgen gameplay, knowing how much these mods will affect on performance and in what order they should install the mods, which are compatible and which are not, etc.

This guide is a brother of my Skyrim LE graphics and gameplay guides, in a single one - and a result of many months of modding Skyrim SE. It's only a precautionary measure for modders. Please do not harass Bethesda or its representatives on forums or social networks. This doesn't affect Skyrim LE so you can consider modding it instead. exe file and to launch your game only via SKSE exe/mod manager, not Steam. Even if you not gonna buy AE (which has close to no sense for PC) - as it's an autoupdate disable Skyrim SE updates till 11 November in Steam settings (like shown here), make sure to back up your game.

Mod authors will have to support 'pre' and 'post' AE version of the mods, which is tedious. From that moment, SKSE (SE) modding stage will be messed up for an unknown amount of time, due to need of SKSE update and most of SKSE mods rebuilt from scratch for AE. This practically means that as soon as Skyrim SE receives this autoupdate, most to all of your SKSE based mods will break. Other its 'content' is a paid option, but game will still update itself. The AE in core itself is free (comes with 3 CC mods), so it'll be an autoupdate. Thousands of functions are changed or deleted.

It's a separate game, like Skyrim LE and SE are. What does this mean to PC players who mod SE: Only players to consider it are PS4 players who have utterly limited modding capabilities thanks to Sony being Sony. It's the same Skyrim SE, just with some CC content inbuilt (Creation Club, Bethesda's own mostly paid mods, all of which have free, and often better, analogues). It's called (surprise) Skyrim Anniversary Edition. 👉👉 Important warning to everyone who mods Skyrim SE 👈👈īethesda did it again - they re-release same Skyrim at.
