If you use texture mods like Skyrim HD, install SMIM first, then the texture mods and let them overwrite the few files that might conflict with SMIM.

If you use anamorfus' Enhanced Lights and FX, install SMIM first then pick the SMIM Meshes installer option for Enhanced Lights and FX. If you use kryptopyr's Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade or Tytanis' Jewelcraft, install it first! Then let SMIM overwrite all files!

If you use rheadude's Ultimate HD Fire Effects, install it first! Then let SMIM overwrite all files! If you use raiserfx's Ruins Clutter Improved (recommended!), install it first! Then let SMIM overwrite all Ruins Clutter Improved files! Otherwise, you won't get SMIM's fancy lantern or various Nordic ruins improvements. If you use Better Dynamic Snow (recommended!), install order doesn't matter since BDS 2.20 is a BSA package meaning SMIM's loose files will always take precedence. Otherwise, one of the windmill fans will remain 2D. If you use SkyFalls and SkyMills (recommended), install it BEFORE SMIM and then let SMIM overwrite all files. If you use WATER or Realistic Water Two (either recommended!), install one or the other AFTER SMIM and let it overwrite all SMIM files.

Do use them though since they fix some very serious bugs with the DLCs. The Unofficial patches for Dawnguard, Dragonborn, and Hearthfire are also extremely recommended but in no way required. Install order doesn't matter since the USKP is a BSA package meaning SMIM's loose files will always take precedence. The Unofficial Skyrim Patch is recommended. esps for it.Īlso download the Unofficial High Resolution Patch. Just download the High-Res DLC from Steam and activate the.

The Official High-Res DLC is OPTIONAL, but only a lunatic wouldn't use it. Before requesting options please try the different options through Nexus Mod Manager! My mod comes with a fancy installation script that lets you pick and choose which parts of SMIM you want and pick various texture options. If you use NMM, just click the "Download with Manager" button and install! The Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) is recommended for proper installation.
