LOOT is also very good at helping you avoid conflicts, it can recognize a lot of conflicting mods and warn you about it when you use it.This list will be far too long to fit into one post, so I'll probably need to use about 4 comments. Please upvote the comments so they stay next to the main post and do not comment on the comments that are for the main post below so everything can stay organized.
If you need to comment, comment on the main post itself, not one of the comments below.Note: I will not be covering any mods that are NSFW in this post. Prerequisite to ModdingFirst, you will need Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE). You will now need to start Skyrim with skselauncher.exe in order for SKSE, and mods that require it, to work.Next, to easily install most of these mods - get the. With NMM, you can download mods with a click of a button from the Skyrim Nexus website, then install/uninstall mods with NMM, as well as configure your load order. Not required, but highly recommended.Then get - to keep your mods properly 'load-ordered', to improve performance and reduce CTDs due to improper mod load order.
Install your mods with NMM, then after that run LOOT to sort the mods. Alternatively, you can use which is the old version of LOOT.
LOOT is a beta version so there's some bugs, BOSS might be more stable but LOOT does a better job sorting.Next is. Wrye Bash creates a patch of some of your mods and merges changes from those mods into the patch.
This reduces the amount of mods the game has to load and helps avoid conflicts in the game. It can be a little complicated to use though, watch to learn about Bashed Patches.
This is only recommended for advanced users, as this can cause problems if done incorrectlyA commonly suggested alternative to Nexus Mod Manager is. It's more stable than NMM, allows you to customize modding profiles for different saves and different characters and doesn't actually install anything to the data folder; Instead it dynamically loads the files every time you start Skyrim.If you don't like the Skyrim Nexus, most of the mods in this post are also available on the Steam Workshop.
(I highly recommend just using the Nexus though, many mods can't be installed correctly through Steam)Also, if you're new to modding I highly suggest you read in it's entirety. It will teach you the things you need to know when working with mods.Please remember to endorse any mod you download if you enjoy it - its a way of giving thanks to a modder's hard work.

There are links to the other patches in the description of this patch.Install if you have Dawnguard.Install this if you have Hearthfire.Install this if you have Dragonborn.Ever had one of those infinite loading screens? This fixes that. Heavy modders will need this more.
Install after SKSEThis is an extremely highly recommended mod that fixes multiple problems and condenses several mods that used to be on this list into one, extremely useful mod. It features a Double Cursor Fix, Borderless window mode, Dynamic Process Priority and a RaceMenu Precache killer. I cannot recommend this highly enough. Install after SKSEHave you ever pressed the E (activate) key in a dialogue and it selected something else than you expected?

Another highly recommended mod.A mod that fixes and adds a lot more features and functionality to the dialogue menu.Game OverhaulsThese are HUGE mods that alter Skyrim as a whole or a large part of the Skyrim game. They serve different purposes, but none of them can be used together and they have conflicts with many other mods because of how large they are so installing one really requires you to learn about the mod. Mod NameMod DescriptionMediaThis is a MASSIVE overhaul for Skyrim that alters nearly every aspect of the game. Read the mods description for a better idea what the mod does.
One thing to keep in mind is that this mod is completely modular, you only need to install the parts of the mod that you actually want.This is another huge gameplay overhaul designed to give the game a more realistic roleplaying feeling. Read the mods description for a better idea what it does.This mod is designed to alter the difficulty curve of Skyrim as you level up.N/AA very large overhaul of Skyrims combat system and related elements. Like SkyRe it is modular so you can choose which parts of the mod you want.In vanilla Skyrim, some skills are much harder to level than others, and some perk trees are near completely worthless. SPERG fixes both of those things by adjusting skill leveling rates, adding a number of different sources of skill gain for some of the harder skills to level, and completely overhauling the perk trees.N/AMemory PatchesSkyrim's engine has a very serious problem with crashing when you have too many mods installed.
These patches help with that. Read the mods individual pages for technical information on how and why. Mod NameMod DescriptionMediaThis is an ENB patch that does wonders for how Skyrim manages memory and it virtually eliminated my CTDs.N/AThis implements Sheson's memory allocation patch to allocate more memory to Skyrim when it starts up to help eliminate crashes.N/A. ENBs and Lighting EnhancementsFor novice modders and people who aren't very good with computers, you may need help to install and configure these.You can only install one ENB.
Mod NameMod DescriptionMediaCustomizing ENBs through the.ini or the in-game menu can be confusing or time-consuming. This is a simple executable with a great, well-organized UI that you can run at any time to make changes to your ENB. You can even make changes while the game is still running.N/AFantastic ENB, I currently use Option A with Realistic Lighting Overhaul. This mods description page also has a nice list of visual mods that are beyond the scope of this post that you might want to check out.I've never used this one personally but it has a lot of users.
There are actually two ENBs in here, one is Bleak and one. Isn't.See Mod Page.Another brilliant, stunning ENB preset.This ENB is designed to be combined with Climated of Tamriel for an extremely realistic looking Skyrim.This is an ENB for high performance systems.It is a complete overhaul of the games lighting system and is the most comprehensive lighting mod available for Skyrim. The changes number in the thousands and cover many bases. The aim of this mod is to make the lighting as realistic as possible within the confines of the game engine.N/AEnhanced Lights and FX's goal is to create a more dramatic and realistic mood to the lights in Skyrim by adding lights to all light sources and removing any light without a source, as well as the addition of many more effects like smoke, volumic lights, driples, etc.
NOT COMPATIBLE WITH REALISTIC LIGHTING OVERHAUL.N/AThis is a pretty old mod this is still actively updated and supported with a lot of followers. For a lighting mod, this mod is really huge, it has a ton of features.N/APerformance ImprovementsThese are for low end PCs to get the most out of Skyrim. I have personally never had a low-end PC so I haven't personally tested any of these mods. If you have any suggestions for this section, please be sure to let me know. Mod NameMod DescriptionMediaZoner has been making high performance ENBs that's enough to run on laptops. If you can't afford much resource, this is the way to go.See nexus pageThis is a great mod for anyone who experiences heavy FPS lag. Skyrim has to load everything as your character turns to face it, so turning quickly can mean serious FPS drops on low end PCs.
HiAlgoBoost fixes that by dyamically lowering the screen resolution as you turn. You shouldn't even notice it and it makes turning a lot smoother.See nexus pageThis lowers textures on things you won't actually notice the difference for. But your FPS will! (Your screenshots might)This improves performance for free (mainly interiors)! Nothing is lost!This mod removes shadows entirely and just colors the existing lights differently.
That way there's only half the stuff to deal with. Naturally, this conflicts with mods that change lighting.Follower ModsThere are two types of mods here: Follower Overhauls and actual Followers. You can use any combination of followers you want, but you can only use one follower overhaul.Here is a really good comparison video of the Follower Overhauls to help you decide: Mod NameMod DescriptionMediaUFO is a set of tools and enhancements to the followers system that will allow for better control and usability of followers.Multiple followers.

He has custom voice acting, and can give you quests too (Bounty Quests), so there's always something to do with him.Vilja is a highly detailed custom follower mod - she has her own quest, backstory, and voiced dialogue.A more humor-themed follower. Spits bile at his foes, and has amazing custom voice acting too.Valfar is a passionate Stomcloak warrior - uses Galmar Stonefist's voice.A female follower that will heal you and has smart AIN/AInigo is a wonderful, fun, humerous, fully voiced companion whose story is tied to that of the Dragonborn.

I haven't had a chance to try this one personally yet, but it has tons of great feedback.Wyrmstooth is a fantastic DLC-sized quest mod that allows you to travel to the island of Wyrmstooth.A large and ambitious modding project to recreate the Morrowind game using the Skyrim game engine.This is very similar to SkyWind in that it takes place in Morrowind, except Shadow of Morrowind takes place in Morrowind at the same time as the events are happening in Skyrim, instead of going back in time to how things were during the Morrowind game. It's also similar to SkyWind in that it's not finished yet, but it is being worked on.N/AA fantastic, large mod that allows you to travel to the jungle home of the Khajiit, Elsweyr.A fantastic quest mod for very late-game characters that is full of powerful magic and very difficult and rewarding boss fights.This is not actually a new quest, it's actually a fix to the main quest.
Without giving anything away, this basically gives you a very important choice where before you had none. You want this mod.N/AAn extension to the Dark Brotherhood quest line for those who don't want it to end. It features two well-made fully-voiced followers/Dark Brotherhood members, 22 new quests, 2 new dungeons and other goodies.Undeath is an unbelievably well-made and comprehensive quest mod for Skyrim; it's probably one of the best ever made. In it, a powerful necromancer and his followers are trying to unlock the secrets of immortality and you can either stop them, or unlock it yourself and have the ability to become a Lich. The mod also comes with new spells, two new player home and new item vendors along with other great additions.This is a series of 5 quests made by ThirteenOranges.

It's a DLC sized quest mod that's being worked on by some of the best names in modding.

Great for hoarders, or people that want to personalize their character model.A great mod by a good friend of mine, skyrimaguas.
This gives the Dragon Priests the really terrifying and unique feeling they so desperately needed.
As a last note, As far as everything goes and as of right now, there is no way to mod either console (Xbox and PS3). From my knowledge, there is no program out for Skyrim, yet due to it's relatively young age I can only expect it to come out soon. Both Fallout 3 and New Vegas, however do have programs for modification on the console and they get A LOT done, which is no understatement.If you also play the Fallout series, and have some want to modify it (I've tested both a lot, thought for the New Vegas if you do modify it a lot, or mess with a lot of things in your inventory, you can mess your game up)Fallout New Vegas:Fallout 3. What I mean is that pending on what save you come across, I know of one that made you level 250. You started off in a slightly (heavily) modded room in the starting area where you could loot basically any item in the game, then continue on with the very very beginning of the game.
There is no 'multiplayer' and story leveling will already be maxed at 50 due to that specific saves level. Most people mod Skyrim to break level caps (which there shortly should not be), modify inventory carry weight, max out a skill (or all skills) and just to give the person using it a much much different and more 'free' experience to do what he/she pleases.
