Skyrim Special Edition

If you want to check out the collection before you install it check out my [Twitch](https://www.twitch.tv/bongodoctor) channel for live streams and highlight videos...

You will need to download [SKSE-VR](https://skse.silverlock.org/beta/sksevr_2_00_12.7z)  and [Visual C++ Redistributables 2019](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe) before installing the collection and launching the game. Extract the files from the [sksevr_2_00_12.7z](https://skse.silverlock.org/beta/sksevr_2_00_12.7z) folder using 7-Zip and copy them into the folders specified in the enclosed sksevr_readme.txt file. You should run the [VC_redist.x64.exe](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe) file to install the Visual C++ Redistributables 2019. A link to [SKYUI-VR](https://github.com/Odie/skyui-vr/releases/download/v1.2.1/SkyUI.v1.2.1.7z) is listed on the mods tab above but the links don't always work so you can just use the link above - download the file and drag and drop it into Vortex to install it. I have also bundled the zipped output of the [Skyrim VR - USSEP 4.2.2 and SSE 1.5.97 Compatibility Patch](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/31673), which will save you having to download it manually and run the patcher.

UPDATE 1: In the latest version have switched from Optional Quick Start to Random Alternate Start which requires that you enable bDisableScriptsInPlayroomVR = true in the /SkyrimVR/Data/skse/plugins/PapyrusTweaks.ini file otherwise you will get stuck in the start menu. I have also included Ashes, Sunhelm, Campfire and Hunterborn to emulate the survival mode which is now bundled by default with the latest versions of Skyrim SE/AE. I have also hidden healing and flames from the spell menu in case you want to start out without any equipment or spells etc (highly recommended for a survival play-through) - they are still accessible via the Spell Wheel VR menu and/or VRIK gestures if you really want them. Other than that it will still be a 99% Vanilla experience in terms of gameplay, quests, locations and graphics etc...

UPDATE 2: Ok I decided to add some basic graphical texture upgrades whilst limiting myself to a maximum of 100 mods in total! So I have added mods which provide the most coverage in each class including: Skyland AIO, Cathedral Landscapes (with LOD), Cathedral Armoury and Clothing, Obsidian Fog and Snow Edition, Mists of Tamriel, Realistic Water, I Want Better Arrows, Bellyaches Animal and Creature Pack, Nordic Mountains, Nordic Faces and Enhanced Vanilla Trees (with LOD). This is now a self-contained collection which can be used as-is without any more mods - whilst still retaining most of the vanilla gameplay, and all of the original equipment, spells, locations, NPCs and quests etc...

UPDATE 3: Ok decided to throw in Building/Mountain LOD and Occlusion Data generated by xLODGen in case you are not sure how to do this - only took about 5 minutes and it will ensure that the object LOD matches the Skyland and Nordic Mountain textures etc. If you add any new mods which change the landscape you will need to regenerate these - instructions provided at the bottom of the description...

UPDATE 4: Added Dear Diary VR and the Quill font replacer so you can hide the Map button from the interface - it is still available via the M key on the keyboard - or you can install two variants - one with map for testing and one without for getting lost in the wilderness. Ended up 10% over my target of 100 mods, but you can't win them all :) I also recommend hiding the compass bar by adding [Interface] bShowCompass=0 to your SkyrimPrefs.ini for  a really immersive wilderness experience...

UPDATE 5:: After several more days of play-testing I added a few more quality of life mods which make small improvements without any significant changes to gameplay or content: Simply Faster Horses, Khajiit Prowess, Inventory Dropper, 20% More Perk Points, Perk Points at 50-75-100, Additional Dwemer Clutter Smelting and Craft Lockpicks. This collection now includes the High-Reverse Durability VR option which makes weapons/armour more durable as the quality of the materials they are crafted from increases...

FINAL UPDATE: This will be the final update (honest!). I have added Skyrim Underground and Hammet Dungeons - two dungeon mods which add nearly 100 new dungeons to explore without adding any new quests or exterior landscapes etc. I have added four mods to boost performance: eFPS, Recursion Fix, Project Optimisation and Skyrim Priority (needs configuration). And finally I added: Campsites in Skyrim, Wanderers Backpacks, Super Simple Lock Bash, Enhanced Standing Stones, Archery Gameplay Overhaul and Arrow and Bolt Tweaks.... I will not be increasing the total number of mods over the current 150 - any changes will involve replacing an existing mod(s) rather than adding to them. I regenerated the xLODGen model LOD and Occlusion data to allow for new dungeon entrances and campsites etc. Also Added Archery Gameplay Overhaul and Arrow and Bolt Tweaks...

Random Alternate Start Tamriel/Solsteim*

*If you don't enable the recommended experimental PlayroomVR fix in the PapyrusTweaks.ini file (created after first run) you need to make a small edit to your /My Games/Skyrim VR/SkyrimVR.ini file for Random Alternate Start to function correctly. So either enable the PlayroomVR fix or add:

[VR]

bLoadVRPlayroom=0

To the end of the file in notepad and save it - this disables physical sneaking via crouching, but you are still able to sneak using the thumbstick controller. If you don't do this you will get stuck with the main menu and character creation menu overlapping and be unable to proceed. (If you spawn in Solstheim then there is only one way back to Skyrim without resorting to the console - as the normal boat is only enabled after you travel there from Windhelm -  I have added a small Solstheim-Tamriel rowboat near the Nchardak ruins).

Once everything is installed you should launch the game using the sksevr_loader.exe in your SkyrimVR folder - it is recommended that you add this as a tool in the Vortex dashboard and set it as the primary launcher. Once you have all the core mods configured to your liking you can then use this as a starting point to build your own mod collection. You should ideally install one new mod at a time and test that it works as expected before adding more. It is very important to read the mod installation instructions very carefully and make sure you download the correct version. Generally any mods written for SE will work in Skyrim VR, exceptions being SKSE-64 based mods that use .dll files, mods that add custom player animations and mods that require content from, or the newer Skyrim AE game engine (1.6.318+).

I also highly recommend using [Scalpel VR Reshade](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/86174) - which improves display clarity significantly when using in-game TAA and disabling Dynamic Resolution in the VR Settings. Although the Scalpel VR Reshade mod is available on Nexus it is not listed in this collection as you have to download the files and manually, unzip them and put them in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SkyrimVR folder. And if you wear glasses, purchasing a set of prescription VR lenses which clip over your headset lenses will improve your experience significantly. I got mine from [https://vroptician.com](https://vroptician.com/) who are EU based, but I am sure there are also providers in other parts of the world.

The official Skyrim VR version number is 1.4.15 and is compatible with any mods written for Skyrim SE 1.5.97, although many mods written for, or labelled as being for AE will work fine in Skyrim VR - it doesn't do any harm to try one and uninstall if it doesn't work or causes problems. I have marked all of the mods in this collection as 'use exact only' - so that those specific versions will be installed. This will guarantee that they work nicely together - updating mods mindlessly when they are released is generally not a good idea. They can create compatibility problems with other mods and may initially have bugs or glitches. If your installation is working well don't update any mods unless they are offering some amazing new features or major bugfixes. Never, ever attempt to update the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch (USSEP) from version [4.2.5b](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/266?tab=files&file_id=209150) - this is the last version that supports Skyrim VR and the author of the mod will not allow people to view or download older versions of this mod (it's a long and depressing story). Fortunately, Nexus Mods do not allow mod authors to throw all of their toys out of the pram and  delete older versions of mods if they are already included in a collection (for obvious reasons) and therefore it is still available from collections such as this and direct links posted by helpful Skyrim VR players.

I have now added [Save and Execute Console Commands](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/33269) to the collection - in combination with [VR Keyboard](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/64319) this is the only way to run console commands in VR without taking your headset off. You can type in new commands, save them and then enable a power which will allow you to open a list of commands and run them. You can have multiple commands in one menu and up to five menus. You can also import and export lists of commands which are stored in .json files and can be found in SkyrimVR\Data\skse\plugins\SCC_SavedCommands - I have uploaded my go to settings file so you can import these into your save: [settings.json](https://pastebin.com/kuGGQ8Wb). This has lots of useful commands to help you test any new mods you install. The commands included are:

Name - Command - Explanation

1. Collision - tcl - toggle collision on or off

2. Combat - tcai - toggles combat on or off

3. Freeze - tai - toggle movement on or off

4. God - tgm - toggles god mode on or off

5. Kill All - killall - kills all nearby npc's and creatures

6. Map Markers - tmm 1 - shows all map markers

7. Solstheim - coc dlc2ravenrock01 - teleport to solstheim

8. Storeroom - coc qasmoke - teleport to room with all items/spells etc

9. One Life* - set ashes_lives to 1 - sets number of lives to 1

10. Three Lives* - set ashes_lives to 3 - sets number of lives to 3

11. Six Lives* - set ashes_lives to 6 - sets number of lives to 6

12. Slow Time - set timescale to 2 - sets time scale to twice normal time

13. Medium Time - set timescale to 11 - sets time scale to 11x normal

14. Fast Time - set timescale to 20 - sets time scale to 20x normal (default)

*Requires [Ashes - A Simple and Configurable Death Mod to be installed](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/19234) NOW INCLUDED!

The Ultimate Naked Permadeath Survival Challenge:

Try to get to level 79 without making any of your skills legendary (in other words all skills except speechcraft must reach 100)

You must start at a random location with no weapons, armour, spells, gold, food or drink etc - this why the challenge is called 'Naked'

You cannot open your inventory during combat to freeze the game and consume potions or change weapons/armour etc - you must see the battle through or escape

No using Carriages or Fast Travel - you cannot buy a horse but can steal one or try to tame a wild one

You cannot recruit a follower (but you can use summoning spells/staffs)

You cannot talk to anyone - if they try to engage you in conversation exit it, walk or run away, or kill them

You cannot accept quests from people although you can take on quests that you find written in books/journals

You cannot buy or sell anything from/to merchants - all of your equipment must be crafted, found or stolen

You can only enter cities or towns if you can sneak in/out or steal a key, talking to a guard to gain entry is forbidden

You must make your own base and all of the crafting stations, and/or take an existing one by force

I recommend you add:

[Gameplay]

bEssentialTakeNoDamage=0

to your SkyrimVR.ini so you can kill essential NPC's

Good luck!

As Skyrim VR does not support .esl files, if you have more then 254 active plugins your game will crash, or in the best case scenario not load any plugins from 255 onwards. If you want to free up some more space by merging some plugins read my [Skyrim VR & zEdit Idiots Guide](https://pastebin.com/uA9SgfFL). Loot may throw up messages about compatibility patches not being installed if you merge any of these - but they will still work as expected. If you manage to free up some space you may foolishly be tempted to go down the dark rabbit hole that is DynDOLOD. If so you may want to read: [An Idiot's Guide to LOD Generation](https://docdro.id/AxVxh37) - use at your own risk. However I personally still find that generating all of the LOD with xLODGen simpler, more reliable and gets better results in game - so if you want to generate LOD the old-school way read: [xLODGen Full LOD Generation Guide](https://docdro.id/0QyoEe8).  If you really have no friends and/or social life or just terminal OCD then you may be interested in reading: [xEdit - Cleaning Plugins and Resolving Conflicts](https://docdro.id/80T1gzM) - brew up a lot of strong coffee it really is a tedious read.  If you want some practice with xEdit try these [simple tasks](https://pastebin.com/Gf0M0CdE)...
