It would also be a good idea to keep a backup folder somewhere away from your main Skyrim folder, just in case something goes wrong and you need to roll back any changes you made without having to re-install the whole game.
When something glitches, having all your files organized and easy to find will make it easier to troubleshoot. Thankfully, most, if not all, the mods available in both Steam and Nexus come with handy, detailed, and easy-to-follow instructions that are designed to be as foolproof as possible. A few notes though: the more mods you run, the more likely your game will glitch out, have bugs, or crash. Especially with multiple mods running in the background, it can be difficult to ascertain exactly which mod is causing a glitch or a crash.
In order to find out, start testing your mods one at a time by disabling all other mods save for the one you want to test. Good luck, and happy modding! What you'll need is some archival software that can zip, unzip, compress files, and all sorts of other jazz. Personaly, I use the free software 7zip, as it is free and reliable unlike the sites you download it from. Once you have that find the file and right click it to open up the menu. After you've done that you need to select "Open Archive" and a menu will pop up showing all of the mods files that you can then use to put into your game.

If there are partially conflicting mods, make sure the one whose functions you require loads first.
Installing manually is not recommended, because load order fixing is harder. Try using a mod manager. Not Helpful 10 Helpful 9. Use Nexus Mod Manager -- it saves a lot of headaches. Not Helpful 8 Helpful 4. I've tried downloading mods for other games, but it always messes up my computer.
Is it generally "safe" to download Skyrim mods? Yes it is, generally speaking. However, it is really important that you put it in your data folder. It is also recommended that you download off a site such as Nexus, as they would never allow viruses onto their site. That depends entirely on the set of mods you have installed and what they modify. I recommend you use a load order manager of some sort. Otherwise it's down to figuring out what modifies what and maybe some trial and error.

I can uninstall and reinstall Steam, which allows the game to work, but the moment I try to use Nexus mods, it crashes. What can I do about the problem?
While it's hard to say what the problem is from this description, it should be noted that some mods can conflict with each other, causing them to not work properly and, in most cases, cause problems like these. There is also a chance if you were using a large amount of mods, you hit the limit of mods you can have with a functioning game and went over.

You need to create a new volume onto which you can install Steam games. And Skyrim Nexus have mods for that too. You can try many mods such as Genius Character Enhancement mod coupled with No more blocky face mod to resolve the said problem.
These mods help to smooth out the facial texture of the characters and make them look beautiful and pleasing. This is one of the essential Skyrim Nexus mods you should definitely install.
The Skyrim Script Extender is beneficial to increase the scripting capabilities of Skyrim to handle more complicated commands as the mods of Skyrim have become more complicated and ambitious over the years. If you want to apply new textures to almost everything in Skyrim then 2K texture mod is here to help you for achieving the same.

In this article, I am going to look at a tool called Mod Organizer which will help manage your Skyrim mods. One of the strong points of the Elder Scrolls series since Morrowind is the mods created by gamers. There are literally thousands of them, and they allow you to update, fix, and expand the original game in so many ways.
Keeping track of those mods and also ensuring that your game is stable and as error-free as possible can be a daunting task. Mod Organizer is a sophisticated and powerful piece of software that has several unique and powerful features:.
While both tools do largely the same thing, they are different in several ways. I would recommend Nexus Mod Manager for someone who is new to modding and Mod Organizer for anyone familiar with mods or who have used Nexus Mod Manager and found that they need to use some of the advanced features that Mod Organizer offers.
I have listed the pros and cons of each tool below to allow you to make your own choice. Before we begin migrating mods from Nexus Mod Manager and making use of all Mod Organizers advanced features, we need to install it:. You can see in the figure below what the various panels in Mod Organizer do, as well as some of the buttons that you will regularly use while setting up your mods, configuring your profiles, changing your mod order and fixing mod installation issues.
To install a mod, simply double click it on it on the Download tab and confirm the name you want to give it. The mod will show as Installed and it is as easy as that. Where Mod Organizer really excels is when the author of the mod has not put all the files tidily in a single folder. Without cleanly installing such mods, this may cause the mod to be unstable and crash your game.
