Hi,

I just bought the game via steam and was wondering if anyone could give me a good place to start as far as mods. Here's an idea of what I'm looking for:

High end textures - (for environment, character models and weaps)

Better lighting - (I want the nicest, most realistic looking i.e.: god rays, HDR etc)

Ambient occlusion - I launched the game in it's vanilla state and I thought the lack of AO made the game look horrible. Particularly how the characters look so separate from the environment as they barely cast a shadow :/ Would really love to see some really good AO

That's pretty much it. I searched Google and there are so many so I was hoping I could get an idea on which ones are the best from suggestions here.

As you can see I really prefer decked out graphics, detail and realism.

Thanks very much

P.S. I know some of these mods can be demanding on a computer but I'm pretty sure my PC (at the resolution I play at) can handle just about anything Skyrim
