Which version of Skyrim is better for mods? Special Edition is more robust, has better graphics and is generally more capable out of the box. The Legendary Edition includes the original critically-acclaimed game, official add-ons – Dawnguard™, Hearthfire™, and Dragonborn™ – and added features like combat cameras, mounted combat, Legendary difficulty mode for hardcore players, and Legendary skills – enabling you to master every perk and level up your skills. What does Legendary Edition add to Skyrim? Special Edition is the 64 bit version, which broke compatibility with old mods when it came out. Legendary Edition is the original 32 bit version, and is the version that is compatible with mods dating back to the Skyrim's initial release. Is Skyrim Legendary Edition the same as special edition mods? Just pay attention to load order and compatibilities. If you were able to mod Oblivion and Morrowind fine, then Skyrim will be a breeze. The mods will work on that as they do on the base game with all the DLCs. I want to thank redditor Aleithian for providing me with the best help I have gotten to solidify the load order structure.Do Skyrim mods work on Legendary Edition? There is really no difference in Skyrim Legendary Edition. It doesn’t matter if you’re on PC, Xbox or PS4. I truly hope that this guide benefits all players who decide to use it.

This has also been tested by myself as providing a smooth gameplay with minimal crashing (only in Lake View Manor) and occasional harmless freezing while traversing the land of Skyrim.

Bethesda as always is fantastic as well.īelow is a mod load order structure that has been borrowed from reddit’s Aleithian and his research. I want to thank the many mod authors who are actively at work to bring us some truly amazing content. Hopefully with this guide, you will better understand some of the terminology. Usually on Nexus Mods, you can find a more detailed description of where to put mods in the load order. If the author has been around for a while, you’ll find his mod there. If you are ever in doubt about a mod, go to the Nexus Mods website and search the mod title.

Some mods will require to be the lowest mod, or at the bottom of the load order. They are considered lower in the mod load order. On the other hand, mods at the bottom of the list are loaded last. Some mods will say they require to be the highest mod, or at the top of the load order. They are considered higher in the mod load order. Mods at the top of the list are loaded first.
