How to Install Mods on Consoles (Xbox and Playstation) - Skyrim SE Mods

[@philsurtees]

Thank you! I have never played Skyrim (I know, I know!), but decided to take it for a test toast on my Series X, but every bl00dy video out there is for people who have been playing Skyrim forever and know everything about mods. This was EXACTLY what I needed to get started and I REALLY appreciate it thank you. Great video...

[@twice_9463]

If youve never played skyrim you should pmay legit first !

[@DukeofSalt]

@@twice_9463 I’m just gonna add visual mods and maybe perfect block

[@LHA_1978]

Thanks for this! It helps knowing I'm not the only one frustrated with how they 'organized' the mods on Xbox.

I really needed this... the tutorial, the comedy and Gerudo Vally song in the back ground of the outro...

Hey thanks for this video man, you really streamlined the learning curve of mods with this for me, great work!

@nabil Ibrahin from what I’ve heard ps4 is different from Xbox and pc and I own a Xbox so sorry I can’t help

[@LOLOMGYGBBQ]

This video was super helpful and I used that load order of yours you posted. Took me nearly 2 hours to setup for whatever reason but I’m about to start my new game. Hyped up 👏

Me: skeptical to watch another Skyrim video El Efrain: [Inserts flute solo in intro and bashes Raid Shadow Legends in Beginner tips] My brain: "Click the subscribe button right now!"

[@Uncertaintycat]

I came for the flute solo, and wound up learning some stuff

[@jesspalko2622]

Thumbs up and Subscribed for the flute solo alone 👊🏻😅 Thanks for the video! You really broke it down in a way that does not assume the viewer already knows what a mod even is

[@Sapherr]

I'm watching this because I'm downloading skyrim with xbox gamepass so hopefully it works

[@c-moon8789]

SAME BRUH. saw the game was on gamepass then i realised it had mods so i was like hell yeah!!

[@verpalorian310]

7:28 I don't know if you meant to say that, but that's not right. The mods on the top will get overwritten by lower mods if there are conflicts, meaning the lower mod actually gets prioritised.

[@ElEfrainTV]

Admittedly, I didn't do a good job of explaining this correctly and the note that I edited in also didn't help clarify the concept. All I meant to say was that mods placed higher in the load order will load BEFORE the mods you place below them. You are correct in that some features of the lower mods overwrite the features of the top mods when they affect the same game attributes. That is something I should have mentioned to have a stronger explanation and I completely overlooked that. Thank you for pointing that out! Also, thank you for providing the mod organizing spreadsheet! That is a great document I wish I had known existed to help me through the modding process for all these years. I'll add it to the description so others can see. Thanks, once again, and cheers!

Thank you! Im getting this tomorrow and have never modded before, this video has made it so much more straight forward. Will I be able to create an account on the Bethesda site using my phone or does it have to be on a pc?

[@ElEfrainTV]

Yes, you can use your phone. Might be more awkward though.

[@pierce5808]

@@ElEfrainTV thanks again it was really easy to set up but if you don't mind I have another question. If I want to add more mods to my load order do I do it and follow the same procedure of shutting down the Xbox? Only played as far as getting to whiterun.

[@ElEfrainTV]

@@pierce5808 I always hard reset my console after installing any mod, but that isn't the case for most mods. For graphics mods, overhauls, landscapes, and character retextures definitely shut down the Xbox. For armor, items, magic, most followers / added NPCs, or some new locations simply closing down the game will do. Always check the mod description to see if you need to hard reset and if you're unsure, do it just to be safe.

[@YTmmiTy]

10:23 I mean, I get he’s joking about that’s what the PS4 looks like, but at the same time, the PS4 is not at all very hard to navigate. thus I really don’t think that was necessary, in fact, I’m pretty sure the PS4 is easier to navigate than the PS4, seeing as how you can put all your games into folders for different categories. but Xbox is a all scrolly-scrolly when it comes to finding your games because there is like 6 different rows of games, PS4 only has 2 rows assuming you have folders, if not then only one row

[@bobbymagoo5136]

Hey man, this will be my first time modding so I have no clue what to expect, how does it work with an existing playthrough? Does this stuff just seamlessly get added? Like I seen you talk about one I really want (I think in a different video) the one about making the perks system of robust, will it just adjust to the progress I've already made? This is the longest I've done and playthrough and really like my progress and would hate to start over if I don't have to. Your videos have been very helpful, thanks dude.

[@ElEfrainTV]

Great question. So, most mods will just add in their items, enemies, and effects to the world little to no interference. You might get a small text prompt giving you a heads up that things are now in the world. Rest assured, your veteran save will be fine. The game makes a duplicate save of your game after installing mods too: one modded and the original vanilla. As for Ordinator (the perk overhaul mod), it will take at least 5 minutes to reimburse all your skill points from the vanilla game, and add in the modded skill tree. It will straight up say this once you load into the save with a text prompt. The mod will then notify you with another text prompt when it's finished, and you can freely spend all your skill points into the new skill tree. It's totally safe and doesn't at all mess with your save. If you have your doubts, just make a new save. I actually recommend it with this mod so you can feel the progression of the perks and not be totally overwhelmed by all the effects, powers, and stat changes. Hope this helps. Cheers!

[@bobbymagoo5136]

@@ElEfrainTV I got too antsy before hearing back from and just dived right in and yeah that particular mod is incredible, I even like getting to redo all my stats from scratch now that I know what I want out of the game instead of this stupid well rounded thing I was attempting at first. It is a serious pain finding the exact mods you pointed out just like you had said it would be. Another question, I did see some of the exact mods but in different languages, how would this negative effect anything, like if it's just graphical stuff that doesn't require text I should be good? This time I'll wait to hear back from you before messing with it. Thanks alot man, breathing new life into skyrim is a great way to wait for the new elder scrolls to drop 🍻

[@ElEfrainTV]

Popular mods in different languages will only affect the text and titles of items, effects, and dialogue of some characters. Not a big issue if you're okay with that. If you're having trouble finding the mods I use or talk about, check the description of my videos for a direct link to the Bethesda page for the mod. I also have a PasteBin link to a list of my current Load Order with links to all the mods i use.

[@bobbymagoo5136]

@@ElEfrainTV I'm have trouble completing the process of making my Bethesda account, something about the captcha things I think, I probably have to get off my phone and get my laptop out but man am I lazy.

[@damonlacey4374]

I actually had the exact question thank you so much for asking it better then me and the answers helped so much thank you both

[@firstpersonlooter]

So... the mods make a NEW profile save. After messing around in the game for a bit with mods I realized this. It said I don't get trophies with mods on which I didn't mind for a bit because I really just wanted to see what they were like and I was also happy to add a mod that allowed me to level up faster. I was then going to disable the mods and keep playing the normal way to get the trophies but I CAN'T! The profile that was modded, even with mods turned off, is still seen as a modded profile by the game and won't let me gain trophies. So all that work with mods was a waste and I'm still stuck where I was in my original save with my 10 or so quests that aren't updating or telling me where to go. God I hate Bethesda.

[@emilyh8389]

[@gabe8706]

ty for keeping it short and simple but idk why when i go get my xbox account to pair with the besthesda web it says erron but in my emails im paired up

[@ElEfrainTV]

If you mean on the Xbox, that happens all the time. You just have to put in your email address, username, and password again and it should be fine. You can close the game down and then open it a again and that might fix it; then do the process again. If you still can't sign in, it's a problem on Bethesda's end. Check the Bethesda support Twitter page. Also, you may have to wait maybe 10 to 30 minutes for it to work correctly, so maybe performing a hard reset on your console and your router. If there is an error on the Bethesda website, I am not sure how to fix that or what you mean by it. Sorry. Hope this helps. Cheers!

I’m trying to download mods of the Xbox one and I’m on nexus mods using Microsoft edge and I’m trying to download a mod but it keeps saying downloads are not supported on this device

[@RoastyGhost]

I thought on Xbox it prioritizes mods from bottom to top

[@ElEfrainTV]

Yup. I didn't do a good job of explaining and clarifying what I meant. Mods will load top to bottom. However, the properties of the mods placed closer to the bottom will overwrite those placed at the top. My bad. Hope it didn't cause any confusion.

[@Helllo-w8f]

so these aren't like the pc mods? because you can access that mod menu anytime for mods as long as you can log in but those are restricted, does this method add more mods available? i hope its somewhat in the middle, better thatn the old and nok-off mods but not as crazy as pc because that might just break my ps5.

[@aussiehighlands2715]

Hey question about modding specifically on console, say I don't want to download a huge amount of mods right away: And favourite them, are they supposed to get removed if i favourite too many?

[@ElEfrainTV]

They shouldn't be removed in most cases. There is a limit as to how many you can favorite / archive in a library. On Xbox, that cap is 150 and PS4 is 100. When you access these folders via the game, you may not be able to see all 150 (or 100) do to the game just cutting off how many you can see in one screen. I am not 100% sure as i haven't favorited or archived an amount of mods close to 150. From what I can tell on forums and other places online, there is no auto library clean up UNLESS a mod was removed by the author or by Bethesda. Hope that helped. Cheers!

Sounds like the mod relies on another mod. Read the mod description and check if there are other mods you need to download. If not, files just might not be present in the mod anymore. Its due to a variety of reasons, but not a whole lot can be done about it.
