There are two versions of Skyrim , and the game is also available on a number of different platforms. The version of the game, and the platform you are using, will affect the process you need to go through if you want to mod your game. Here are the main sources of mods for Skyrim and the platforms that you can use with them:. Here are the three main sources of mods for Skyrim: Special Edition and the platforms that you can use with them:.
Skyrim: Special Edition is a version of Skyrim that is available for PC and consoles, and it is designed to make the modding process very easy. In fact, Bethesda actually hosts a huge variety of mods on their own site, and you don't need to download any additional software to use them.
The first part of this process is to create an account on Bethesda. Here are the steps that you need to take:. Once you have found some Skyrim: Special Edition mods that you want to install, the rest of the process takes place in the game. You will need to tie your accounts together, choose some of the mods you found, and install them. Enter the email address you used when you created your Bethesda. You need to select Create Account even though you already have an account. As long as you enter the same email you used to set up your Bethesda.
Enter your Bethesda. Some mods do not work well with other mods. If your game does not operate normally, try adjusting the load order by selecting Load Order from the main mods screen.
If that doesn't work, you may need to disable one or more mods by clicking on the mod and then clicking on Disable.
Depending on your platform, there may be limits on how many mods you can download and install. The number of mods you can install will also be lower if you don't have enough free space on your console. The space limitations are placed by Microsoft and Sony, while the limit on the number of mods you can install can be placed by either the console manufacturer or Bethesda.
The limitation on the number of mods can change from time to time if Bethesda decides that Skyrim is capable of handling more, or less, mods while still remaining stable. The easiest way to find and install mods for the original version of Skyrim on PC is a program called Nexus Mod Manager, which has an associated website.
This program is also compatible with Skyrim: Special Edition and many other games. Please, be patient and allow for ca. Once your download history is built, you can search it for keywords, or filter by games simply type in e.
You can further endorse mods directly from the download history and view activity logs for a given mod. Where can I find my download history? If you are using an alternative executable such as the 4GB Skyrim mod you should run that. That is to say if you try to install 2 mods that both alter the same files then there will be a conflict.
The mod manager does not directly take this into account and give you a warning at this stage so you will have to be aware of this yourself. If you try to install a mod that alters files that another mod already altered you will get a prompt that asks you if you want to overwrite the files or not. If this happens you should usually answer no, and then disable the mod you just tried to install afterwards so that all the other non-conflicting files are also removed.
If you want this mod then you will have to first deactivate the conflicting mod the mod manager will tell you which mod had conflicting files before installing the other one. Many mods include a readme. The readme. If you install several mods this will happen a lot - so don't be afraid to overwrite the file as long as it is just readme. Usually you should only try this with mods that don't alter how the game actually works - ie. If you do this then you need to pay attention to the sequence in which you activate the mods - because the latter ones will replace conflicting files from the previous ones.
As said you should usually only try this with texture mods or similar since these mods will not mess up your game if you do something wrong when trying to mix together mods it just won't look as you wanted it to. Mixing functional mods in this manner however could have disastrous consequences and should be strictly avoided.
This may be because the mod has optional files you can install to tweak how it works for example such as 'Enhanced Blood Textures' which has an optional addon 'blurry screen blood' for example - or 'Enhanced Night Skyrim' where you actually choose one file package for altering the stars, and one for altering the galaxy and you are free to mix. In these cases when you install more than one such 'part' from a mod - the mod manager will say that you already have the mod installed and will ask you if you want to update it.
If you choose 'yes' then it just merges the second part you installed into the first part so it only shows up as a single mod in the list. After installing, some of them will add an extra module file under the 'plugins' tab. You will need to tick that box for the corresponding mod you want to run. Note that disabling a mod should remove the plugin - so generally you should just make sure to have all the plugins ticked on that page.
