So I am running your personal mods list on the new PS5 version of Skyrim and I was getting crashes but thanks to a few gins and some process of elimination I found the tricky mod to be Immersive Citizens AI overhaul. For whatever reason it just didn't like it. Runs like a charm now without it though and everything looks great. So if anyone else if having issues with the new PS5 port that might be of use to you! Thanks for the video and the list, great work

[@Xprt.]

Thank you so much, I'm going through this exact experience, I had a feeling it had to be one of the ai mods. You saved me a headache

[@patronsaintofprocrastination]

Immersive Citizens in general is a complete headache no matter what version of Skyrim you're playing. A shame, since I really like mods that give a hit more of life to NPCs.

[@jamesnunn7181]

Hey man! Wanted to say thank you for this video. I have only just got my first ps4 and have re bought Skyrim having not played it for a few years. I was nervous about modding- people make it sound really complicated- and it’s seems much can go wrong. However I simply loaded up my favourite 8 or so mods using a little bit of logic and also any tips the modder gave on where to put it on the load order. I have not had any problems at all and Skyrim looks absolutely AMAZING!! I’m so chuffed. I’ve never seen it like this since the game came out… it’s like playing Skyrim 2 or something!! All I need to do now is get a new TV and it’s gonna blow my mind all over again… Thanks so much for making this video, I’ve used about 6 of the ones you suggested. Heart of Azeroth is the game changer in many ways…

[@MrBenedick14]

No need to use ascid, if your using dirt replacer, dirt replacer also add rock texture.. If you add them together it will overwrite the code, and this may cause crashes on ps4/pro .. The author julihah said dont add rock texture with another rock texture... Dirt replacer load order should be at the buttom order.

I feared to lose the nostalgia but instead these mods created a new nostalgia which sucks me in likes I‘m playing this for the first time.

[@listofromantics]

My issue with modding Skyrim on my PS4 Pro has ALWAYS been getting the load order correct. Even looking at "official" guides for how to arrange mods, it's often a toss up as to where to place certain mods, as certain mods could easily fall under different categories / mod definitions, which will effect where you try to place them in your order.

[@williamjones6266]

My thoughts exactly

[@toastertarts2990]

Exactly if 1 thing is wrong the games fucked

[@woffydoggy686]

I have the same problem... And don't mention the cc content incompatibilities, mods that became broken after some time for no reasons, etc.

[@anthonymarachev4375]

Any race mod or freaking cape destroys my game and I have to literally scap the files

[@gamelab9177]

I put mod in any order really with no problem, most people don't read the mod description to see if it specifically says where to put it, if not they can go anywhere just don't download every mod on the whole game 🤣 lol

[@brothergrok]

OMG thank you for your load order... this was the only thing keeping me from trying mods out, as the whole thing continually frustrated me to nooooo end. I did platinum the game recently, so now i'd like to try a laythrough with mods. Thank you very much, my dude!

[@roninbhaal2039]

I can't find the load order?

[@lucv13]

Great list and thanks for the load order - I know what I'll be doing tomorrow morning!

[@-alostsoul-6902]

Great list, I use a lot of those same mods, many of which are quite under rated. If you're on ps4 though I'd say drop the fps mod, it's cool as a novelty kind of thing but not really worth the stuttering and inconsistency if you play with a heavier load order. I'd suggest trying the Skyrim Detail Update mod by wrighton instead for some other asthetically pleasing changes, as it makes a bunch of small but impressive alterations to the landscape, lod and several other visual details of skyrim. Load it high in the load order so other mods can overwrite its changes if need be.. And rather than dense grass try More Grass, its a newer grass mod also by wrighton that pairs very well with his detail update.. And I think Ascid and Juliah's dirt replacer might overwrite eachother's rock, dirt and road changes if used together so whichever mods changes you want to see load that mod lower, though personally I'd probably drop the dirt replacer mod entirely as I'm not fond of the overgrown, grassy road look. However you choose to mod the game though, this is video has a great list of mods to start with
