But if you want to add a weapon, a npc, a new event, change the original light radius of your torch ... you'll need an esp =)

    You don't need tons of mods to make your game beautiful you can even just focus on a few mods

    For example you can already have beautiful results with Skyrim 2k texture + Skyrim Flora overhaul + a good ENB if you play first-person.

    Think that an ENB alone does ... 60% of the job when speaking about improving your game visuals x)


    If you want more mods to make your landscapes/armors/npc/towns more beautiful I can give you a pretty solid list, but honestly the diffrence between an ENB and no ENB is gigantic.
    I would appreciate that!!! By the way, my ENB is Realvision ENB. Think that one is good?

    Jaysus thats alot of mods man. Even if you have a super computer,there is always going to be conflicts or degraded performance when you are using THAT many. I know alot of people who can get 150+ to play well together,but honestly..it requires experience and knowledge of the Skyrim engine. Personally,ive broken my Skyrim at least 4 times through modding and only recently have i got to a stage where i have 100 or so working well together with no problems whatsoever. But thats only after hard lessons..even then,since its release..ive never completed the damn game lol. I spend more time modding/fixing mods/researching then actually playing lol

    But yeah,first thing id recommend is Mod Organizer from the Nexus - http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/1334/? - that little beauty allows you to install and manage Skyrim mods without actually touching the proper Skyrim directory. It keeps things clean and can be a life saver if things go awry. Its also a great tool for examining install directories and seeing what is conflicting with what,to a degree. Other programs such as Wrye Bash,SKSE,BOSS,FNIS can be used through it aswell.

    After that..looking through your load order there..man,there are so many mods there that could be causing ctd's or terrible performance. Youve especially got a bunch of script heavy ones. To name a few -

    Wet and Cold
    Player HeadTracking (this one is known to be causing problems for people as of late)
    Enhanced Blood
    -- and god knows what else..some of them ive never used..theres alot there ive never used,but am at least aware of.

    Then,you have ones that are adding things to the world space like -

    Skyrim Immersive Creatures
    Civil War Overhaul
    Immersive Patrols
    --and to a lesser extent Deadly Dragons + Dragon Combat Overhaul.

    After that again,you are using Lighting and Weather Overhauls like -

    Climates of Tamriel
    Realistic Lighting Overhaul
    Supreme Storms (CoT version)

    After that again again (lol) you are using a whole load of texture mods,armor mods,NPC mods,overhaul mods and little ones sprinkled throughout. I know for sure that some of the ones that ive listed require multiple compatability patches to function with other mods,proper load ordering..all released at differant dates,with differant versions of the dependant mods..some are out of date,others arent..god..its...its..mind boggling lol

    I would ask you,when did you install those mods,how did you install them? Start of the game? mid-game? What way are you saving? Are you installing mods as you play and see them and going from there? Are you uninstalling mods and disabling esp's in save-games where they are embedded? Basically,whats your understanding of adding mods to skyrim?

    Overall,if you are experiencing CTD's and choppy performance..its most likely because the Skyrim engine is puking its guts out with all the scripts firing every time you load a game or start a fight or do anything while you play,judging from your load order. You're probs having VRAM issues due to all the texture/armor mods combined with other mods such as Civil War Overhaul adding masses of NPC's to the enviroment (on top of everything else).

    It doesnt matter how good your PC is,the Skyrim engine has its own limitations and can only handle so much. And again,with the amount of complex mods you have installed there..all it takes is one teeny tiny little conflict between any of them to cause a CTD. Something you would never notice in a million years unless you are actively keeping track of whats going on at all times with all mods,every day lol. Seriously =)

    Less is better,you dont need all the mods you have installed there. I say start a fresh game,reinstall if you have to..make sure the vanilla directory is vanilla. Download Mod Organizer..and decide what you want your Skyrim to be. If you want it to be graphically/visually beautiful..then choose an ENB or something like RCRN,which i personally use.

    After that,think very carefully on what mods you really really want to use. Stuff you actually will use if you install them,or get some enjoyment out of consistently for the entirety of the game.

    Responding to _Myth_
    I use Wyre Bash, stronger installer.
    I installed all of the one's shown including compatibility patches, then started a fresh game.
    From what i'm getting, it's mods that adds to or replaces parts of the game that's intensive.
    I have, according to my manager, 3.79 gigabytes of VRAM, so i'm good there.
    All I want really is the game to look beautiful, while including immersive mods that really fit into the atmosphere of the game.
    Funnily enough you listed most of my favorite mods as script heavy haha.
    My ENB is Realvision.
    My computer can handle anything visual, but I agree i'm chocking it out with so many script heavy mods.
    So my answer is: I want a breathtaking visual experience, while adding in immersion that should have been there from the start.

    I'm really struggling to find a very good ENB.

    Project ENB has gorgeous interior lights but is not the most realistic
    Somber ENB is really brown and while the textures look more realistic, interior ligts are nowhere close to what I get with Project ENB

    Saraa Suum is between Project ENB and Somber ENB, but due to a curious bug I crash when I zone in the Dawnguard zone????

    Currently testing Seasons of Skyrim ...

    Been watching Kilplixism and his Skyrim videos of 100+ mods as well. Some crazy shit.

    Anyone know if theee is any mod that gives you Exp from killing things and not just from skilling up stuff?

    Edit: Wich i then realised was a silly question because... Killing stuff = exp on the weap/armor = skill up = exp on the big bar..
    But how about just exp from killing things if everything was at max?

    You might want to check the community uncapper, it essentially lets you level up as much as you want.

    ain't that far yet, highest (one-handed) is at like 82 atm, but just wanna spend points in stuff, and goes rather slow too lvl up skills maby a mod that gives more points per lvl up(the lvl up that gives point too spend in stuff) would be better so instead of 1 it would be 2-3 or something:/

    Get the mod that lets you spend dragon souls for perk points. Then you get to improve skills from leveling and killing dragons. You are still limited by the game in what level the skill needs to be in order to spend the point, but I'm sure there's a mod for that.

    So...the player.addperk is essentially giving you want to you, the ability to add perks. What's wrong with that? Its a little extra work, but so what? Also, you can adjust your level and that will give you more perk points too if you prefer that avenue. And as a third option, you can DL the mod that lets you spend Dragon Souls for Perk Points and then just adjust that number.
