This is probably the last kind of thread you want to see here, I know. :( But the truth is, I don't know a better place to ask.

 

The Skyrim modding scene's still a bit chaotic, or seems to be. Not like Oblivion, which is familiar and comfortable for me. EIther way, I can't really tell the essentials from the optionals, the stable from the dodgy, and so forth. :/

 

Other than SkyUI, Live Another Life, Open Cities, and of course the Unofficial Patches... what's necessary, what's awesome, and while I'm asking, what do you use?

 

Thanks in advance, guys! :)

I will post links to some of my favorite Modders. Just check out their files.

I use some of them or even all of them. But keep in mind that these are sure a lot files, but personally I merge for example all Weapon additons or Armors together.

 

Just cklick the Link benathe the modder name and check his files.

For me those are really awsome.

 

(PLEASE: If you not listed that doesn't mean you are awsome ;). You are ! Thats just my fault as I didn't discovered your mods yet !!! Generally every mod deserves a lot of honoration for the invested time and effort)

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/users/3140055  --> Zerofrost

 

 

There are many more...

I don't want to search them now or list them. Also for magic mods are a lot of good stuff out there.

I suggest you just look the top files or go to each categorie and select sorting by endorsement.

 

The mods you find here on TESAlliance are all great. I tested them ^^. I like the all.

Two indispensible sites: STEP and GEMS.

STEP recommends a whole bunch of mods that improve the "vanilla experience" (better textures, bugfixes, stuff that that should have been there all along) and most importantly, have been thoroughly tested and proven to work well together without causing crashes or savegame corruption.

GEMS is a list of some of the best gameplay mods available.

I would recommend you just look at the top 100 at the Nexus. You will find a few nice mods.

 

My favorite house mod is the Levelers Tower. Its big, its clean, and you can spend days in there and never come out. Its also on the top 100 list, and one of the two house mods that made the list. (click on the Readme icon on the nexus to see what it does.) The mod is around 350MB uncompressed.

 

I also use the Uncapper mod. It uses SKSE but since you use SkyUI, you already have SKSE.

Thank you all, for your helpful posts! :) I will be looking into those mods and sites.

 

Just one specific thing, in case anyone here knows of a solution to this - that hair mod looks nice, for example, but it doesn't add any more colours to the "sliders" or whatever they're called, right?

 

If not, is there a mod that adds some more colours, particularly for hair, eyes and lips, by any chance? Or is that hardwired in the engine or something? :/

I have to recommend the Leveler's Tower also.If I had only one place to live it would be there.It has to be seen to appreciate and the functions and amount of things it does are just amazing.

 

Try It.After patching my game it would be my first download.

 

Did I mention I like the Leveler's Tower?
