Like the title says. I went and did it. I always play Skyrim on the xbox 360. Well, I went and purchased the Legendary Edition for my pc along with a wired controller and hdmi cord so I can play the game while it is using the tv for a screen.

I have learned about SKSE and SKSE.ini, NMM and Steam and now have a basic knowledge of mods. After spending a full day looking at hundreds of mods, I made a list and picked which ones I liked, and started to install them one at a time. In other words I installed one, played the game to see if it worked, and then installed another, played, installed another, etc. I am not much on technical terms and rather deal in layman's terms.

The mods I chose are:

Alternative Start

Breezehome Fully Upgradeable

Water and Terrain

Sounds of Skyrim

Unique Grasse and Groundcovers

Guard Dialogue Overhaul

Immersive Armors

Left Hand Rings

Apachii Skyhair

Race Menu

Lovely Hairstyles

Raven Warpaints

Wind Destruction Magic

Dragon Priest Armor

Witchplate Armor

Screaming Knight Armor

Daedric Assassin Light Armor

Horse Armor

Some of the mods are from Steam and some are from Nexus. Everything is running smoothly together, but I do not know about the armor until I get the proper perks to forge them.

The only one I am having problems with is the Dragon Priest Armor. You are supposed to be able to both forge it and put the codes in, but I cannot get the codes to work. Any advice for this??

I truly cannot believe the difference and to me it is like a whole new game. A completely new Skyrim. There are no lockups, no freezes, and the loading times are way shorter. Outside of the cost of the game, the only other monies I spent was on some cords and the wired controller.

In the console type help "Dragon Priest Armor"

I think it should be player.additem ArmorID 1 ?

When I do that, will it help me by giving me the codes?? I am still such a baby when it comes to this.

I will try this this afternoon. Thank you.

It should show the codes.

Use page up and page down to go through the console thingy.

Great. Thank you. When play time comes I will try it.

Is it this mod? http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/6537/?

if yes then here are the console commands. (xx is whatever the 2 digits are in your load order)

player.additem XX001003 1
player.additem XX001004 1
player.additem XX001005 1

Nice one Ashley, good luck with your new setup.

Just make sure none of the mods disallows you from learning any shouts from word walls.

welcome to the modded side of the force heh.

You gotta admit its a fresh new experience on a PC with mods. By the looks of it you have a great start as far as good must have mods are concerned.

To add to what others have said, the console commands can be your best friend when it comes to locating armors and things from mods. As Garrus said, "help dragonpriest" without the quotes will show you every item, npc and armor associated with that name. use the page up or page down to scroll through the list. You'll see the id numbers. When you see the armor id# you want, then enter player. additem (enter ID number with a space first after additem) and then space 1

It should look like this.

player. additem 00053b3b 1

which will give you 1 of that item. DON'T enter the item code I listed, I just made it up as an example. Using the console can also help you equip followers with gear you want them to have but maybe don't have.

And of course we're all here to help
