Skyrim PERFORMANCE Mods & Animations | How To Install Guide

[@ADHDecent]

EDIT: I misread Rustic Clothing (not installed) as Rustic Clutter (installed). We’ll be using both anyway but I’ll address this in the next episode PERFORMANCE & ORGANIZATION is KEY to the running of a Smooth Skyrim Mod Build Here's a few ways to do so! & Let's Install some Animations too! Why Not?!

I spent 23 years as a System Support Tech, having to document installation, configuration and procedures for many software and hardware deployments over the years, I can appreciate all the time and effort it takes to research, test and create documentation for others to follow, that being said it would have been a blessing to have had someone with your level of detail to work with on the projects. I wish you the best of luck with your site, hope you get millions of subscribers and likes.

[@ADHDecent]

I’m honoured. Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words and motivation. It means the absolute world to me to hear from someone of your experience. I really appreciate you thank you

[@rolandpahi3079]

Take advantage of MO's left pane right click menu !!! On a mod you have just installed, and enabled (or even multiple selected ones) RIGHT click--->Send to --->Separator (where you select the separator's name) This just "teleports" the mod to the bottom of the selected category, so you don't have to drag it all the way, ESPECIALLY IN LONG MOD LISTS, which can be slow with that drag-scroll sensitivity. BUT! You will still have to fine tune priority inside that category !!! Also, there is the "Visit on Nexus", which opens a browser with a page opened at the selected mod's Nexus page. And YES, it will open as many mod's Nexus page as you have selected. NAISU!

Bro, u gained a new subscriber for sure. I mean, im a beginner, never modded anything and manage to do it following your 10 videos guide. I'm really grateful. Can u answer me something? Like, some mods we have downloaded and installed through the series needed ENB support or some stuff like that. If i uninstall my ENB (for performance purposes), does it impact these other mods or im good to go just uninstall ENB and the mods will continue to work just fine? Btw, i already saw u have a video teaching how to uninstall ENB, u literally have the best channel for teaching ppl how to mod, thanks for what ur doing so much.

[@cswesman]

Watching the videos, but I can’t seem to find the explanation of why you are reordering the mods… We’re they in the wrong spots before? Were they going to conflict with the new mods if they weren’t moved first? I just don’t understand. On the same note, I can’t find the explanation why you downloaded a different night sky mod only to replace it here. Was it required for something previously, but now it’s fine to change? Did you just find this new one later and simply liked it better enough to include replacing it in the video? Your videos have helped me immensely with getting some kind of understanding about modding; it’s just these particular points I’m either repeatedly missing the explanation, or I’m just too dense to understand. You’ve probably moved on, but if you read this then any explanations would be incredibly appreciated!

[@ADHDecent]

Not to worry. It's all deliberately included as the aim for the series is to teach how to mod rather than just following me. All of the elements are areas you'll likely come across yourself when you mod your own build so by covering these aspects you know how it's done and what to look for. It's better to have a clear understanding overall than just being able to copy a build I make. So I am to make it so it's not a collection but a guide if that makes sense.

[@ReisseT]

Absolutely incredible work, wow I got it all backwards. After spending HOURS trying to figure this out on my own, my MO2 list is Fu****. I’ll have to delete app data, like in your 1st video, and start from scratch. That being said, with all your goodies in the lists and mods, is there any way I could accomplish something similar Without USSEP? Because frankly, some of the *fixes* aren’t really fixes IMO… anyways cheers and thanks a LOT for these videos !!

[@ADHDecent]

Really appreciate it thank you! means alot. USSEP is intertwined with far too many mods these days sadly but you could use SSEEdit to revert the changes you dont like

Also some other mods that are installed have a newer version available, then when I visit the mod's web site I can't find that newer version or don't know what to do next.

you should consider making a modlist for everything you've installed to date, updating every episode, I recently installed some extra mods that ended up screwing everything up so hard that i have to re-do EVERYTHING i've done so far since i cannot find the issue anywhere and MO2 and LOOT arent telling me anything, just a QTD every time i Boot, so having a modlist to go through to install everything again would be nice with my limited free time lol

[@jsbrando4132]

While these videos are really well done, the biggest 2 things missing are "the why" and an emphasis on reading the mod pages. So far you're just giving a list of mods to download and install. You never give a reason why you download the ones you do, what the mod does, and how it impacts the game. There is also a skipping of reading the mod page, which I get for video sake, but should at least emphasize to viewers the most important thing to do when modding is read the mod page descriptions and understand what the mod does. One example I noticed in this video is you installed CCOR Settings Loader, but never tell people what it does and how it impacts CCOR itself. While advanced modders know these details, this series appears to target new modders. You also started this video by moving a ton of mods around, but never mention why again. Still, very good videos for someone who just wants to do something like Wabbajack list, but on their own without knowing what's going on.

[@ADHDecent]

Firstly, thank you. Thank you for taking the time to write the points above. Hearing feedback that is constructive, allowing me to improve and refine for future is something I am incredibly grateful for. Especially with my difficulties focusing on targets and goals, I can quite easily see myself slowly diverting away from my initial intentions with my work, and this extends to the content I create, the last two videos were a result of trying to correct said path and get back on track, sadly, in edit, I realized it became a bit all over the place if I'm honest. I began 'patching my patches' to my work if that makes sense. This week I have paid more attention to the subject matter in an attempt to revert back to a clear, structured path of progression and reading that this was needed has reassured me that it was needed. I am truly grateful to you for providing such constructive criticism as I strive to develop, improve and help as many as I can with my work. The most valuable feedback is that which may be hard to hear.

I've gone into my anti-virus and made everything related to MO2, Nemesis, Skyrim SE, exclusions to maybe circumvent this issue, but the issue persists. Any ideas?

[@ADHDecent]

Im not sure based on what youve said but a few things to consider: - You've checked the box on Nemesis for a mod you have not installed (checking doesnt install them for you) - A mod or extension you've installed is for Skyrim and not Skyrim SE so it cannot be read properly - The FNIS esp plugin has not been enabled in the plugins window - Nemesis has not been installed correctly resulting in broken directory paths

[@Fishbeings]

I found a little problem and fixed it. So, if other people have the same issue: The problem was that my Nemesis stopped working every time after I did an 'update engine' and then clicked 'Launch Nemesis.' It said I had to update again, so I did, but it still did not work. What happened was that I had been lazy before and did not add the acronyms in front of the mod name until this video, where it was recommended. Apparently, if you change the name of Nemesis or 'Project New Reign - Nemesis Unlimited Behavior Engine,' it stops working. After adding the old name back in, made Nemesis worked again

[@ADHDecent]

Sorry to say, changing the names of the mods within the main Mod Pane of MO2 won’t have any impact on the results - the only exception to the rule would be for example Mod A and the Mod A Patch but you don’t add the word “patch” to the title resulting in the patch overwriting the main file as they have the same name.

I currently have Skyrim SE and I'm thinking of getting the Anniversary upgrade, will it mess with these mods? I've been diligently following this guide but I don't think I have the stamina do re-do it all 😂

curious why you moved xp32 up to the top when I thought you wanted to prevent it was getting overwritten.

[@WastedPot]

Why haven’t you chosen to include ‘Display Tweaks’ as one of the performance fixes? Not a dig just curious

[@ADHDecent]

A good question for sure. It was written into the build but at the time we were working with v1130 and it wouldn't play ball. So it was removed and then sadly somewhat overlooked as I needed to work through the schedule. It may be worth including it in a 'wrapup' video to end the series though. To add: I can't remember exactly but I think it was a knock-on affect from SSEEF not working properly (later addressed with a TOML file) one of the hardest challenges creating a series with the latest build: one change can throw everything else off that's planned. Constantly trying to throw duct tape over holes as they pop up haha

[@craniumfuel7296]

it might be a bit before AD gets to mods for Combat overhauls like that, probably even a different series tbh, this series is about the basics for modding and standard mods to grab mostly so i'm anticipating a video on xEdits in the future since it's pretty important for optimization and a handful of really good mods like allGUD

[@Wyyvrn]

Probably a dumb question but, with base object swapper do i still pick the AE version even if i have SE?

[@Wyyvrn]

also every time i relaunch nemesis it readds the FNIS file ive been putting it back it the same mod, is that the right thing to do

[@Republic10]

yea

[@ADHDecent]

Use version numbers and ignore 'AE' and 'SE'.

[@fazzo5409]

Hey, been following your tutorials, for some reason MO2 says that the data for PCEA is wrong, is there any reason this might be happening? Already tried re downloading the mod several times just to make sure.

[@ADHDecent]

I’ll take a look into it to see if I can recreate the problem. I’m not sure why that’s happening for you

[@xnon1829]

Hi, can I ask for help on how to fix an Overwrite problem - still new in modding here. Thanks

[@ADHDecent]

Covered in the guide you've just not reached it yet :)

[@JMarcotte1]

I think I missed when we downloaded JK's Whiterun. I only have JK's Skyrim and the CRF Patch.

[@ADHDecent]

White run is within JKs Skyrim

[@JMarcotte1]

Thanks. Mystery solved.@@ADHDecent

[@zulkhairia.182]

where do you put the skyland aio and blended roads in categories?

[@Jokervibez_636]

So not sure if anyone else is going through this but when i go to load my modded save it says it relies on content i already installed but arnt active which is: USSEP SKYUI SMIM se merged racemenu xpmse race menu plugin FNIS WACCF book covers jk’s skyrim then three dots at the bottom and asks if i want to activate them but when i do it completely breaks my game and when i try to open the menu ingame it crashes and then it unselects some plugins when i have followed every step not sure where i went wrong here

[@SmileHead100]

I've done it all from the first video yet now I get a "CriticalLog" from nemesis with "Global reset all: TRUE" in my overwrite directory, any idea what that's about? (Everything went fine until this last video, not sure if it broke when replacing with Ethereal Cosmos, moving the mods to load at the bottom or with the animation mods. I think I got it pretty early though I thought it'd be fixed through later stages in the video and come together.) Kind of stuck now, not sure what to do. (Edit, disabled everything except for Nemesis and it still gives me the CriticalLog... So something broke on the base level of Nemesis? )

[@Mejoree113]

I know this may be coming in a future video, but does anyone know where Sacrosanct and Growl (vampire and werewolf mods) would go in mod priority? I assume in Gameplay or Overhaul?

[@IlhamDivins]

pls dont change your back sound my brother. i really enjoy it all time :D

[@ADHDecent]

Ah I appreciate that thank you! I’ll try not to 😉

[@davisharper6704]

I'm having a problem regarding Open Animation Replacer. When I launch the game, a box appears saying that the OAR dll plugin needs to be updated, but when I go to the mod page on nexus, it's saying the mod is up to date and I have the latest version, yet the dll plugin for OAR couldn't load in. My game version is 1.6.1170. Am I supposed to run a previous version of OAR or something? I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this issue.

[@aaronpierce7061]

When reinstalling patch hub is it telling anyone else that the mod already exists? Not sure what to do here.

[@JonIceInternational]

Replace it.

[@mathiasbiscardi7889]

For anyone in doubt, this guide works with pirated version of skyrim 1.6.1130 :)))) (oh dont judge me, pay the game for me instead) just pay close attention to the versions of mods u will download, specially SKSE and the directory of the game (that will not be the same as the lawfully abiding citizens one) and you're good to go (I'm using 2.2.5 for skse for 1.6.1130).

[@TSProductions3170]

Bro can you help, my animations mods (combat ) will just not work. Have nemesis, I have ran it but still to no,avail. I have mco adxp and all requirements , xp32 and all requirements. I have also doubled checked all versions. Every time I load the animations into nemesis, it loads 10 animations in total. When I go into Skyrim all animations stay the same.

[@mathiasbiscardi7889]

​@@TSProductions3170 hey bro, that's literally the first and only time i managed to run mods in skyrim, so im a newbie, idk how to help u with that, sorry. I just downloaded 1.6.1130 and followed meticulously slow and paying a lot of attention on all this series and it worked for me.

[@mathiasbiscardi7889]

​@@TSProductions3170 oh actually. Search for when the 1.6.1130 was released. check in nexus for the files that were uploaded a bit after that date. Bc when the mod was released, modders updated for this version. Bethesda released another patch after 1.6.1130, so if u download a file uploaded recently, it has a high chance that it is uploaded for 1.6.1170, and that may or may not be a problem for what i understood. So, i followed evrything in these series, but some of the mods i really needed to pay attention on their upload date and did this process. So, if u decide to do evrything from scratch with a pirate 1.6.1130 version of skyrim, do what i told u.

[@yoitsdarius6104]

I didn’t even know u can pirate Skyrim 😭😭😭

[@myvalorantclips8703]

2.2.6 skse + game version 1.6.1170

[@devonwesleyhahnkurkowski840]

Love your videos but when I got to this part for some reason Mo2 likes to constantly uncheck my plug-ins on the right while the mods are active and messes up the order of mods every time I run SKSE with no errors on LOOT and now not what to do. I wanted to get into the game but if I'm modding for a week just to face disappointment... :(

[@DrCu-vt2wn]

I was following the guide step by step but after that part my Skyrim stopped working properly. When I launch skse it just launches normal game instead and then crushes if I open the menu. Is there any solutions to this kind of problem ? (skse with admin)

[@MokSea]

You always say check to make sure the data is valid when installing a mod, but what do you do if the data isnt valid?

[@GrimmWarrior19]

Better late than never, I suppose but all you have to do in most cases is right-click the file expansion arrow of the 2nd "data" folder within the 1st "data" folder and set it as the correct data path. I don't really know why some mods are packed this way but it's pretty common.

[@SerDorZ12]

So, uh, can anyone tell me why my crosshair's completely gone? along with subtitles that are outside of convesations

[@adrianlieber9868]

Thank you so much for this amazing Series! Im very much looking forward to the upcoming stuff! Go like and subscribe people!

[@ADHDecent]

Appreciate the support Adrian thank you! Means a lot!

[@xajc27X]

also, you forgot to mention where to put the optimized ENB light meshes!

[@ADHDecent]

It stays put at the bottom so it doesn’t require positioning after installing

[@xajc27X]

Excellent, thank you :D@@ADHDecent

[@ADHDecent]

No worries! :-)

[@marubinooo]

I cant see the ethereal cosmos in the sky? Tried reinstalling, putting it on the best possible priority, and even copying its data on the skyrim file directory 😢

[@marubinooo]

Tried configuring the graphics settings too like the antialiasing because thats it for the graphics but nothing works

[@xunvollstandig8473]

nice job.. uff now rly i need a drink xdd...

[@dubzchekum]

Another gift from Talos! Lol

[@ADHDecent]

Talos Guide You - brings a whole new meaning to it! 😉

[@99koray]

I think this question is not needed but i still ask: i left a lot of mods out (sound overhaul, sse engine fix etc) bc i dont want to go toooo over the top. So i do minor changes (the mods you changed in the loadorder) like u did with my mods in the order it is not a problem is it?

[@ADHDecent]

I'm not able to go through individual mod lists but basically there is a difference between mods like Sound Overhaul and SSE Engine Fixes - Sound Overhaul is essentially a preference mod, SSE Engine Fixes is more of a requirement - both for other mods and for the game's stability. So take these sort of things into consideration when choosing mods.

[@KramerPacer83]

RIP 4k stars and galaxies mod

[@carltongannett]

Yay

[@ADHDecent]

😁

[@sagarjadhav6568]

I'am getting a Warning !!! ⚠⚠⚠⚠ Missing Masters - Weapons Armor Clothing and Clutter Fixes

[@ADHDecent]

Youre missing the mod mentioned which is required by another. Youll need to download and install WACCF

[@WastedPot]

ACE

[@noobgamer357t9]

why did we put them in the files they were in in the first place if youre having us move them all over?????

[@W0AHY0]

I'm new to modding and this guide has been very helpful. However, I thought I did everything right but I keep getting an error that says I'm missing content 'CC-Fishing_WACCF_Patch.esp' any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
