Auto Unequip Arrows, you can find it on either steam or nexus

[Grogo]

Requiem 1.8 is out and that mod is the best mod in Skyrim, so much fun.

brodual has a few videos about both overhuals that might help you see what one you might like and gives you a better detailed description of their differences

I know dat feeling spent all night figuring out why my skyrim was crashing at start up but tesvedit was not saying anything was wrong but alas all those years of modding bethseda games payed off I found the culprit and fixed it but lets start this back up with more good mods! or how about a a new utility? iI saw this the other day and ill just say it right now it is essential now behold the best script/savegame cleaner ever I was having terrible issues with a corrupted save and this saved it for me if anyone here ever had a corrupted save you could just not play well heres the fix.

but of course with anything touching save games from outside the game make a backup of your save and follow the directions or you will mess your game up even more

I'm hoping this is with mods?

It's annoying as hell when you go mod crazy and the crashes happen

One of the weirdest thing ever just happent for me.. I was up at high hrothgar for the first time with this character and went out to the courtyard and then some thugs just randomly spawned there xD Broke immersion pretty much.. since i don't think the gray beards would have let them walk through the front gate in the first place

But they got pretty much oblidirated by the 4 gray beards who started shouting so it's all good xD

[Val the Moofia Boss]

Skyre fixes stuff like thugs spawning in High Hrothgar and the likes. Also fixes vanilla's broken skill system and leveling.

[Wilian]

Requiem is much better than Skyre at it though.

[SkagenRora]

But skyre is scary xD i don't want that much realism in my skyrim :>
or what is skyre? from what i have heard you have to eat,sleep,drink, stay warm, very little bag space and all that in skyre xD or maby i am misinformed?

skyre doesn't handle the need to stay warm or eat Requiem doesn't either as far as I know I think you are thinking of The following

Frostfall - Hypothermia Camping Survival With this mod you have to keep warm so places like throat of the world will cause you to loose heat fast so you have to light a campfire to warm up.

Realistic Needs and Diseases This mod makes it so you HAVE to eat and drink to stay alive Also adds diseases that get worse overtime Also getting drunk is pretty entertaining.


Also the maker of skyre is making a new overhaul set to come out in November here is a video With a link to the facebook needless to say I am so hyped.

Skyre is the most popular overhaul mod for Skyrim: the problem with Vanilla is that 1. you never felt more powerful because everyone scaled with you forever, and actually they became more difficult the higher level you went. 2; the higher difficultly settings of the game didn't actually make the game more challenging, it just made you get one shotted and enemies took forever to kill. 3; most skills were pretty broken. That's basically what Skyre fixes.

Requiem turns Skyrim into a Baldur's Gate esque experience, with zones having set mob levels and so on.

[smackyslap]

just another example why you BACK IT ALL UP when messing with mods or ini settings.

Do you need to do a new save to use skyre?

I never really got too play through Skyrim as much as I wanted too before so I'm thinking about doing a fresh playthrough. I am completely overwhelmed by the whole mod community from what I looked up so far. So this is a longshot, but maybe someone else with similar needs has come across a mod pack already made. All I want is something that enhances the graphics (I have a i7 4930k and a gtx 970, so I can go pretty crazy I guess) and has mods that enhances the interface and gameplay without changing the core game at all. I want the vanilla Skyrim experience... Just enhanced I guess. Any suggestions?

You might need to DL some requirements beforehand, but nothing that will affect gameplay.

Try STEP

From their wiki:

STEP is an extensive, STEP-by-STEP, guide to enhancing TESV Skyrim with the best mods, tweaks and settings. The focus is quality over quantity.
STEP tries to stay as close to vanilla Skyrim as possible while improving visual quality and fixing game-play mechanics.

Do you need to do a new save to use skyre?

Yes, as it completely overhauls all the game's systems. Trying to load an existing game after installing Skyre will result in a CTD.

You can always use mod organizer so you can still play with saves without skyre and saves with skyre.
