THE COMPLETE GUIDE Series

A Step By Step Guide To Modding Skyrim on PC in 2024. Using the same example throughout the series, with no assumptions on what you may or may not know.

This series has been a life changer for me. I am not an experienced modder, but have been playing Skyrim since my childhood, and decided to get it on pc where modding options are endless. All of my previous modding attempts have failed, where I've had to nuke the game a few times and I was on the verge of giving up. But then I found this amazing series where everything was super easy to understand and nothing has ever failed thus far. You have really given me back my hope with this, so keep up the great work!

[moonraykelly]

Keep it up, being patient's worth it - definitely.

[wwagoner]

I'm drinking way too many brews following all these tutorials back 2 back!

[dorsanix]

Daaaamn, it was worth the wait! These edits are cleeaan.

[GTO]

This is a great series and its helping my modding of Skyrim so much. Thank you for also showing the placement of the mods within all the separators.

[MIGHTY_LEGND]

been loving the series ive always wanted to get into skyrim modding this series simplified it and not only that its the first ever to show us the ifs and donts on how to mod i feel so confident in modding now but iknow my journey is long but thx to this dude i finally set on my journey of skyrim

[SCSAsJorts]

True game changer, to the community especially as someone who you've helped with get into modding on their PC fresh and new I took a break and came back after some months and still remembered your steps and got super hype to see you've added more!

[Bfish]

As a first time modder, and someone who is somewhat computer illiterate, this tutorial has been amazing so far! Thank you for all the time and effort you have clearly put in to this series

[idkrandomweebgamer]

Landscape Fixes for Grass mods just got updated a few days ago, it's safe to assume to get that now as well

Edit: You will also have to download the necessary patches for JK's Skyrim, Cutting Room Floor, and Alternate Start. This can be done in the files tab for Landscape Fixes for Grass Mods mod. The patches needed for those specific mod are named "JK's Skyrim - Towns" and "Patches for Arthmoor's Town add-ons". Do note that Arthmoor's Town add-ons will cover the patches for CRF and Alt Start, just pick those patches for those upon installing the patch in MO2.

[Nateman]

I'm just saying. I love the detail and organization you put into these videos. I used to just mindlessly install mods and try to work through them with vortex. You've made it so much easier and teaching me how to use MO2. Thank you. Btw, I always look forward to you always saying "Go grab yourself a brew."

[Berserker]

I was initially crashing due to being in program files (86). I ended up on your ENB video first when I had a few mods already. I wiped everything and followed all of your videos up to this point and now my game works perfectly. Thank you.

[Lumosity]

And another great tutorial! My game never sounded this crisp before. I love the new intro you made for this video!

[oneringtorule]

I'm onto Number 9 and loving it! Thank you for the quality, concise content!

[RegiusEques]

This is literally exactly what I was just looking for. I just found you last night because I got Skyrim for PC and have been downloading various mods. Wasn't sure what to do for graphics though. But I have options now!

[jongintohsaka]

i usually do not comment on videos a lot but I just had to now because this is the best guides/series I have seen! Thank you so much.

[EPGClown]

you are seriously a legend. I have been wanting to Mod skyrim for a long time and dived in about a month ago clueless using Vortex and about a week ago or so I found your series and I am loving it so far man. I did have a couple issues with the ENB looking funky so I ended up uninstalling it but I am excited to see the rest of the videos! You are a blessing in disguise for making this series my friend <3

[misterjuliani]

holly molly since vortex seemed to be broken i lost all faith on modding skyrim again but you graet sir you made mod it again, so for that i want to say thank you very much kind sir!

[SumSouuthernSugar]

Great again! Another bunch of good stuff added to my world. Thinking it over, I believe it was actually good for me to struggle through learning things on my own to start with. That way I learned the basics of SSEdit, Loot, FNIS, load order, etc. It was frustrating but making mistakes and learning from them is a great teacher also. I have followed many tutorials over many years of gaming and rate your Number One ! Thanks again,

[dubzchekum]

I’m sure you’ve heard it before, but you are a gosh dang LEGEND bro. This is the best modding guide I’ve ever seen! Really hard to track down something that is both current and not abandoned.
Holy moly, I love you man. Thanks for this.
