I need some help installing and setting up mods.

Post » Thu Dec 25, 2014 3:19 am

I wanted to ask you, more experienced Skyrim mod users, about how to install the following mods - and in what order should i organize them in the Skyrim's boot thingy.

I got these mods to work decently before, but that was a long time ago AND even then they did not work all that well (probably cause i screwed something up).

I would mention at the start is that i use only the manual (zip) installation of mods, none of that fancy automated Nexus client for mod installation.

If you have any better or newer mods that can do the same thing my mods below are doing, please suggest them

Also please do mention if some of the mods i mention below are conflicting with one another - perhaps that is also causing problems.

The mods i want to use are the following:

Unofficial patch for Skyrim

Unofficial patches for all Skyrim expansions

Realistic Ragdoll Force

No Spinning Death Animation

Deadly Mutilation

SkyUI

Customizable Camera

Violens

Warburg's Paper World Map

Convenient Horses

Enhanced Blood Textures

First thing i am unclear about is the install order for all those mods.

Which go first, and is it okay if i get asked to overwrite some files - or is that a mistake?

Second, how do i know which mods need to be loaded first (load order)?

Some of them mention this, but some do not - any way to know?

A few specific questions i did not find answered on the specific mods pages:

To get Deadly Mutilations working, i need the "Core" file AND the "meshes pack Vanilla" AND the "1_3_4 Update" AND the "Skeletons Pack (for Realistic Ragdolls and Force)"?

So in what order do i install those 4 files?

Do i first go for Core then 1_3_4 Update then Meshes Pack Vanilla and then Skeletons Pack (RR&Force) - or is some other installation order required?

Thank you very much for reading and helping me out!
