About this mod
Overwhelmed by the vast world of Skyrim modding, but want to get in on it anyway? Then this is the guide for you!
A comprehensive tutorial covering the very basics of downloading and installing mods and tools and getting them to play nice with each other.

'A Beginner's Guide To Modding Skyrim' is a compilation of everything I've picked up over three years of modding Skyrim without being a mod creator myself. As of v. 1.0, it provides guidance on:
- Installing The Modder's Tool Set: Nexus Mod Manager, SKSE, ENB Series / ENBoost, LOOT, TES5Edit, SkyUI, Wrye Bash
- Downloading And Installing Mods
- Sorting, Cleaning, Merging, And Patching Mods
I've also included a handy modding checklist and a list of mods I either use currently or have used frequently in the past, to serve as 'inspiration' for people just setting out into the massive world of Skyrim modding.
Future versions are planned to cover:
- The Basics Of The Creation Kit (with the aid of someone far more CK-savvy than myself)
- Frequently Asked Questions
- Mod Troubleshooting
The most recent version can be viewed through Google Docs:

Hopefully some folks will get some use out of this guide - I know I would've found it handy to have when I was starting out. Happy modding, and here's to a stable Skyrim!
