Skyrim Mods Walkthrough Part 1: Download and Install

The PC version of Skyrim already has tons of mods out there. I am using Skyrim Nexus, a community where programmers upload and update their mods and release to gamers. Installation is easy.

I will be showing how to browse Nexus, download the files, and isntall manually through the Steam directory. Part 2 will bring the focus to in game, where you'll see some of the mods in action!

@ps3alexpr 1. no. I believe all those files are from the SKYRIM Nexus site.

2. I really haven't installed many mods since, as these are still the top files. Any mod that is titled "Better ____" ie "Better Women" means better textures for the applicable *blank*. The best thingg to do is mess with Nexus Skyrim and do some searching and reading. It's easy!

@RantKid ok, you know what?, what really got me wondering is if I do install the mods or not, because I do not want to have any problems playing the game, I mean compatibility and stuff, so any advice would be really appreciated. another thing, the one that allocate the 4 gb is a mod or an update from Bethesda? thanks a lot for your response, to end? what mods make the game look really better? aside the one you mentioned... thanks again

@ps3alexpr there are two types of mods (most commonly used, anyway) -- the easy copy/paste mods, which is the type I show you how to use, and post-processing.

As far as I know, you can only run 1 post processing mod, but since you're a noob, i wouldnt recommend worrying about it.

With the mods I showed you, you can run as many as you like. try not to go too crazy, or else you'll lose sight of things.

@R3L4X97 it shouldn't matter. just navigate to your Skyrim folder and go from there.

Does it have to be a steam game? Or i can do it with a pirated version as well?

[ps3alexpr]

@RantKid hi, I'm new to this, sorry for my noobness, Can you install multiple mods? and the game runs them together? or not? what mod you recommend? If I use it, for me I would like a mod that makes the game looks better graphics and texture? so what mod do that and is easy to install? thanks!
