"I sometimes find myself just admiring the dirt." - SoftGaming 2024
@@quarterpaul5712 I do the same with the forest and mountains like instead of ulvenwald I did nature of the wilds the smaller one with cg4 trees and woodland
Never in my life did I think I'd say the sentence "That dirt look good!", but here we are.
@@Acoto it's the little things hahaha
@@Acoto "That look good!!!" -AngryJoe
You know an add on is good if you admire the dirt
you should make this a series with doing 10 mods or under in different categories like combat, quests, npcs, etc
+1
hell yeah
Yes please keep going!!
Agreed
Just 10 mods. Then 10 mods to enhance these mods. Then 10 mods to enhance those.... suddenly we're at 500 mod list again. At least that's how it goes for me
Didnt even know that bits and bobs mod existed, deleting 80 texture overhauls in favor of just one is such a nice feeling, cheers for the continued videos soft
It's amazing how much just these 10 mods can change the visuals. We tend to install way too many (well...I do! LOL)
Yes, to have these visuals everywhere. Aswell to polish the compatibility.
Having 10mods will make it so that a lot of things will simply never get touched, and it will look out of place next to your next gen textures and meshes. I remember building my own mod list and going in game to constantly check what's vanilla or not by using a texture pack that removes all vanilla textures.
@@lilpain1997 exactly
I have to confess... After 13 years I'm still not tired of Skyrim... but at the same time I'm very tired of Bethesda... TES6 it's a dark horizon for me
They adopted Fallout, but Elder Scrolls is their heart and soul. If they screw up TES6 then we'll know the studio has truly lost its way, but I'm not yet ready to be a completely cynical doomer about it. I'm still rooting for them.
To be fair, I HATED fallout 3 and new Vegas when they came out. I thought they were so shitty looking and playing for the time they came out and now New Vegas might be my new favorite Fallout , (unless they do a fallout 2 overhaul) which is crazy because I could not believe how shitty it seemed on release. I would've told you it was unplayable back then. I hope that eventually the Bethesda games I don't even have 1% interest in like starfield can eventually be made into something I actually want to play
Every time I want to get back to Skyrim modding I get discouraged because even my modlists that are genuinely minimalist and don't change the game significantly end up huge, and I never playing in the end.
Coincidentally, the last couple days I've been itching to play Skyrim again for the first time in years and I just stumbled on this video by chance. I'm really tempted to go through with it now, this group of mods (with a couple adjustments) might make for an excellent starting base for the graphical side of my modlist. Thank you!
These, skyUI, the community patch (and maybe cutting room floor) and you're good to start playing I reckon. Every other 'essential' mod, like powerofthree's QOL and bugfixes, tend to be script extender mods you can install harmlessly any time during your playthrough. Armour/weapon sets, item and quest mods are generally fine to add later as well.
In my next modlist i'll definetly get rid of all the patches nightmares like Northern Roads, Lux and JK Skyrim.
I got rid of JK’s Skyrim and am going to stop with Northern Roads myself.
Seriously, it's a shame because Northern Roads really is a great mod, but I think I've ignored bugs (even after patches) for too long.
I just installed Northern Roads for my soon-to-be run as I've never tried it before 😅 I was on Lux Via before. I like to spend a lot of time slow-traveling the wilds with my followers and thought it might make things more interesting (along with some new encounter mods).
Lux got ditched this time though for Skyrim is Luminous.
jk's Skyrim doesn't require a lot of patching if used by itself same for northern roads and lux but when you combine them along with other mods it gets crazy. a good portion of my personal list is patches for lux, but it looks so great when done.
@@a1racer441 Use elfx shadows, get rid of your troubles and patches
Thank you Soft.These guide really cuts down my mod list in sense of the visual side.Thank you brother 😀
Enjoy!
I think the best lighting mod is ELFX. There really is nothing quite like entering a nordic ruin and it's completely unplayable without a torch but you press onward because maybe there's a brazier further in, and then you fall down a hole and hear "Blargh! ZUUUN HAALVIIK" CLANK!
That's a good, concise list. Thanks!
Excellent, straightforward guide to updating your game. Solid upvote for a clear and informative video.
Nice we need more of these simple mod lists
Exactly what i was looking for. Thanks
This modlist is also perfect to keep the game lore-friendly. Thanks a lot for sharing. :)
Nice, i really like your choice of mods. It makes me want to start modding Skyrim again.
Appreciate this video so much man!
Nice list SG. I recently moved from NAT III, to a reshade (Silent Horizons 2) and use NAT I for the weather base. It looks so crisp I can hear the air crackle with the frost. L00ping has done a great job with the NAT series over the years. It's such a solid base and works with so many other mods.
Dude! you just SAVED my life lol I just hit the mark I only can use esl 's so fair to say Im kinde lost in my own modlist and I didnt liked the look of my game so I was like Nooooo .. And then you poped up and saved the day I can now easy start over :D Thanks a Million!! (It looks freaking amazing)
What a good Skyrim Modding Video! Perfect! Thx. Liked and subbed.
This is a lot more up my alley. Been playing and modding skyrim for many years though most of that time i wasn't able to use most graphics mods due to performance issues.
Once i did get the opportunity to use graphics mods, i focused on just using big all encompassing overhauls to cover as much of the game in as little mod count as i could.
Might end up referencing this when i next make a modlist
Awesome recommendations - I love simplicity
I'll save this list for my yearly ish playthrough, thanks
I never finished this game. Gonna pop these mods and play it to the end. Thank you for making it simple.
Same. Enjoy the journey, dragonborn.
This is for me. I've only about 30 odd mods activated-mostly QOL, UI, and performance/bugfixes-with no graphics mods aside from SMIM and I'm mostly happy with it. But it's very nice to get a list of recommendations like this for a quick and easy glow-up that won't take ages to set up or require another 15 requirements and a bunch of tweaking, thanks!
bruh you have help me with these mods. I was trying to play the AE and want it to feel like new visually... Thanks so much!!!
Great video, man.
Thank you so much!🤩
Quality video and quality modlist, thanks
Gonna give this list a go for sure.
As always, perfect.
Damn man, just the armour from the start looks awesome!
Great video, you should make a series of this for other types of mods
Trying this right now, if this works then these are my top 10 visual mods from now on
this is exactly what i needed, as someone who doesn't have much storage space on their computer
This is amazing and I got the four legged game of thrones dragons done with no clips and it looks amazing your legend
THANK YOU! keep it up
You are the best
Great video. Would live to see a sort of "Stage II" where you build up from this list.
Thanks. I'm going to try this batch. The last batch I tried stopped my game completely and did some funky things like needing more magika than I had to use candle light. So I had to go backwards and uninstall mods as some were not compatible with my version (1.6.1170.0) I love the way your game looks and would like to have mine look the same. It's like going to school as I watch the "how to" vids. and take copious notes. Again, many thanks.
Thank you so much🙏
what armor was your character wearing? looks beautiful
Jeez, i just used a shader before and thought it changed a lot, but that ENB is making quite the difference.
This is amazing
You should make only 40 mods next
I love Skoglendi and Fantasia Landscapes. I've just switched from Fabled Forests to a combo of Happy Little Trees and Nature of the Wild Lands so I'll see how that goes. I was using Nat III enb until a week or two ago but my PC was finding it quite taxing and I had a few CTDs (probably due to user error) but I switched to Cabbage and it's run perfectly so far.
My one essential mod that I would add to this is the Arachnophobia - Spiders are Wolves one. Totally saved the game for me, that one 😅
I tried Nature of the Wild Lands but that mod caused so much lag and stuttering in the Falkreath and Morthal areas :(
great video.
I wish I could get my perfect look for Skyrim. I have been trying for months and months and have gotten barely anywhere. I might try to see if this combo works for me as a good starting base at least. Thanks for the video.
I have been waiting for the right time to mod Skyrim again but I want to make sure I always have them installed correctly. I use MO2 over Vortex now that I have a bit more understanding of it. What mods would you consider as essential/requirement/mandatory mods?
Skyrim overall mod video without triple Z, breast sized gyal, gotta appreciate that. Really amazing what only ten mods can do, thanks a lot for sharing:]
Is there a proper guide to install ENB you would recommend to watch?
Great job with these mods!
ADHDecent has a fantastic guide for installing ENB, and other mods on his channel. I installed an EMB for the first time ever watching his tutorial, and everything turned out perfectly.
Origins of Forest sir
Nice list mate. Wouldn't you need to generate LOD's to use that tree and flora mod. An easy to use alternative is still Skyrim Flora Overhaul, no need for dyndolod, and there's always Terrain LOD redone to help a little bit. Still a big improvement over vanilla. Ruins clutter improved is just as essential as SMIM as well I reckon ;)
have a great friday guys
You too man
Same to you
To offset ENB's performance hit, use the fsr 3 fg mod or dlss fg mod depending on your gpu. Should double your fps. So even 30fps will feel like 60fps. To reduce the latency hit just get the nvidia reflex mod
Great modlist! I have problem with 3rd person camera,camera is to slow up/down can help me :D
hello! I want to try modding my skyrim but I dont have any idea on how to start. can you make a step by step video on how to install your mods?
Me still playing legendary edition..
How is AIO compared to parallax? I have always used parallax.
Thank you so much for this. Which mod manager should I use? Its daunting. There are so many 😅 and which npc graphical upgrade/overhaul and animations mod would you recommend? Thanks for any info!
Mod organizer 2 is the best manager in my opinion
NPC overhaul I prefer a vanilla friendly look, so I use Vanilla Hair Remake for NPCs. Clemdiddly fashion mods looks good too but I didn't try it myself.
I'll have to check out simplicity of sea and compare it to realistic water 2 which has been my go to water mod for the last 6 or so years.
Any chance you could do a full tutorial on how to get Experience/Leveling Freedom/Skyrim Skill Uncapper/Static Skill Leveling Rewritten to all work properly in tandem? People, including me, have been having problems.
I love your water! What are the enb settings?
I would also like to know. Those reflections are ridiculous!
aliasing is horrible with this mod pack, anyone got a solution?
The grass mod doesn’t work properly. It has these light purple spots all over. Anyone know a fix for it?
I still haven’t found an ENB combo better than Rudy ENB for cathedral weathers(Zangdar edit). It’s so sharp and close to the original Skyrim LE enbs.
Great modlist !
Can you make the same for modern combat and animations please ?
+1 on this. I would like to have this set up right as well.
He does have a spreadsheet to his mod list (including combat) in the description. I may go off of that and try it out.
and the armor? and the animations?
Is there anyone who can recommend on minimalistic mod lists for Skyrim,somewhere between 5GB-25GB?
what armor is that in the video?
hook it up with that new mod list brotha im dying to get back in
Would love to see the same for oblivion.
That with en ENB i not understud how does it work? Do i need e Program first? Like what u said net3D or somthing els?
Yeah so none of these work on my steam Skyrim, Any suggestion as to why? Do i need Special edition?
No skyland for me. I will always be a Vivid Landscapes boy
Is Northern Vanilla Farmouses different from Northern Farmhouses?
Yea it is
it is impossible to download with the mod manager, it just stops to download ? can someone help ?
are the mods available on ps5?
Man I tried to mod Skyrim but I started with Vortex and had issues. Did research and people said mod organizer 2 was the way to go over vortex.
But I'm not a super savvy computer guy and it's so confusing and difficult. So I got discouraged. Just worried I'm gonna ruin or break something.
Do one like this but for gameplay instead of graphics, I don't play games to admire dirt haha I play to have fun!
Is there an fps cap on skyrim? I just started on pc and I'm only getting like 55-60 fps..but every other game gets like 100fps such as helldivers
Yes there is but you can increase this with the mod called sse display tweaks
Are the flora mods you mentioned performance -friendly for an old gtx 1070?
We have the same video card, thinking the same thing.😂
@@CAPTAINSARGE poor bros 🤝 ahahah
I would say skoglendi is but the tree mod might not be, you could try thr vanilla replacer version
@@SoftGamingOfficial will do, thanks!
I use the 1070, its ok, the tree mod tho is heavy. Maybe go with happy little trees+performance and fps mods
That NAT III ENB preset you have here DOES have a Community Shaders clone which is the exact same, just built with CS in mind. This is what preset authors SOULD be doing making one preset for an ENB, then seeing if a CS version is possible and uploading it when it works because Picta looks freaking amazing just like NAT III but is exclusively ENB and the author is kind of being snarky at people in the comments that have found a way to get it working with Community Shaders
And what do you do with the other 20 mods required for their operation, it's not that easy, otherwise everyone would do this
i saved the video on a folder, along with all 10 mods...just in case of some mod going bad on nexus.
I have a problem with my game where distant trees, grass, objects, etc. won’t load until I’m very close. Any fix?
DynDOLOD, probably. There are several tutorials here on YT and it's easy enough to use.
Dyndolod will help, check out biggieboss video on it.
armor name pls :)
fabled forest looks more dense then traverse . traverse got some lit trees but density is not as good as fabled
11 bonus: a strong enough gpu that handles well enb, because enb alone improves the beauty 50 percent alone so at this point either gtx 1060 or rtx series from now on. this is coming from gtx 1050 user here as i could barely get 30 fps and sacrificing more options, gtx 1060 handles better in modded skyrim. as for the other games im getting barely 30 fps on medium/high settings while gtx 1060 gets 30+ at very high settings.
Mate at this point just get a new GPU. The 1050 is old by now.
@@TitanSubZero15 you dont say?
can these mods be installed on ps5?
is there any way ?
Nope
I liked using Lux, but the amount of required patches is a nightmare. Skyrim Is Luminous looks good.
Yeah I really don't know how I manage to f*ck it up everytime, but some of the mods don't seem to work properly for me. The grass is floating above the ground and is super sparse, the light keeps bugging, some of the textures are just vanilla textures, SMIM only works for cords but not for chains... Even with the nexus, respecting the load order stated in the description, AND with only ten mods, I still manage to make a mess lmao.
Amazing video however, I love this idea of going back to minimal mod use, enhancing the vanilla experience instead of doing an overhaul !
Skyland would be amazing if there was a parallax AIO version of it, but there isn't.
SRP AIO is the next best alternative since it provides parallax textures AND meshes for everything it covers.
(though the author forgot to add many files to the latest version, so you have to download the previous version and merge the newest on top of it.)
as far as I can tell northern farmhouses is gone
Use the link in the description, it's an archived download link
Can Lux and the ENB recommendation in this video go together?
Yes you can
Traverse the Ulvenwald still shows Nexus requirements. Is that not the case?
They are optional if you want seasons or use dyndolod
the fact that you are running this on a 3070
Well thanks for that....i want play again and i need a small list like this....3000 mods is impossible
for me 😅
Well now I'm going to delete my steam deck modlist and try this out. It's so simple
Looks great, but with my gtx 1660, i have 20 fps with Enb.
Try to use only a reshade, is not that good but goes a long way without destroying performance.
if you're just using an enb as it was made, try tuning off dof and ao, and shadows (?), i think those are the heaviest effects. if you mean just having enb installed, i agree reshade is a good enough alternative. or try community shaders, i find it doesn't affect performance as much as enb.
Us with low end pc it will be over with the first 3 mods😢
There are performance options for all these mods though. Use the 1k version for all the textures and forget about the weather and enb mods, instead use Wander and community shader.
This makes it finally being playable for me. I just hate the original graphics.
