Info on installing SkyRe Compatibility and Reproccer Patches.
DON'T PANIC!
Yes there is a ton of documentation and a lot of info spread out all across the internet for SkyRe. SCaRP is trying to make it as painless as possible, but doing so still requires a lot more information than almost every other mod. At first SkyRe may seem like a daunting mod that is imposable to understand, but after taking the time to read, and setting it up once or twice everything will become much clearer and easier to handle.
Things to know: 1. Using NMM, MO or Wrye Bash to install is highly recommended. The installers are designed based on how NMM displays and reads the information, it may appear slightly differently in MO or Bash. Manually installing is not recommended due to the vast number of files present in the archive. 2. The patches in Reproccer Patches SkyRe are for the most current version of that mod. 3. If a covered mod updates between patches we will upload an updated patch as a separate file in the Updates Section. 4. If we add a new mod to the patches between versions we will upload the new patch as a separate file in the Optional Section. 5. More complex mods may take several days or even weeks to get fully updated depending on how dependent the patches are on it, i.e. an update to WAFR will require an update to almost every patch and will take a while to get out.
Installing: 01. Install the various mods you plan to use (Uncapper, Reproccer, SkyRe, armor, etc.). 02. Download and Install Reproccer Patches SkyRe. Make sure when the patch uses an installer and asks you questions about what to install, be precise about what mods you have installed. 03. Run LOOT to sort your load order. See below for more on load order. If it doesn't place the plugins in the correct order, you will have to change them by hand. LOOT has a metadata editor that allows you to create a custom rule to keep the plugins in the right place. 04. (Optional, but highly recommended) Run TES5Edit to create a Merge Patch, Sharlikran has a video on how to do this on the TES5Edit description page. Anything listed below the Merge Patch, in the load order info below, should not be included in the Merge Patch. If also using Wrye Bash, before you close xEdit to save the Merge Patch do these 2 small steps; -1. Open the new Merge Patch and find the Leveled Item and Leveled NPC group entries. -2. Delete both groups, just these 2 groups no others. -3. (Optional) Right click on the Merge Patch esp and select 'Clean Masters'. This will remove any masters that are no longer necessary.
05. Run Wrye Bash (Guide) to create/update your Bash patch. So long as the Bash patch is placed after all your other mods and before the SkyProc patches, you will be fine rebuilding the patch. Rebuilding the Bash Patch will only integrate the data from the mods that are listed before it, but feel free to uncheck the plugins below it if you want to. If the Bash patch is in the wrong place, fix it before updating it. -1. Right click the Bashed Patch esp and select Rebuild Patch. -2. Verify the presented data and click 'Patch'
06. Run any other SkyProc patchers you may use except for Dual Sheath Redux. 07. Enable the Pre Reproccer patches and delete the Reproccer.esp (for sanity). Disable (uncheck) the Post Reproccer patches, the Post Reproccer patches must be ignored by the Reproccer when it is updating the patch. 08. Run the Reproccer program. 09. Run Dual Sheath Redux (if used). 10. Enable the Post Reproccer plugins if you disabled them before. 11. Play your game

Using Wrye Bash to create a Bash patch is highly, highly recommended due to the armor and weapons mods you have installed. It ensures that all your weapons and armor mods will be merged into the leveled lists properly, and you will see them show up in the game as intended (on NPCs and for sale.)
Final note about LOOT and SkyProc, make sure you don't have BOSS installed on your computer, or if you do, run SkyProc with the -NOBOSS option in its command line. This is because by default, SkyProc will run BOSS before rebuilding the Reproccer patch. Since you already sorted the mods using LOOT (and then fixed any mistakes it made), you don't want BOSS then to change and break your load order. The current version of Reproccer will ignore BOSS.

It looks as though there is a new "Improved Close-Face Helmets" version - one that was added earlier in November. It also appears as though the mod name has been changed and is causing the ICH Reproccer patch to fail because of a missing master. Either that, or I'm just blind and senile and should be ignored.
I did everything like you wrote here, and my game doesnt crashes at all, but the wierd thing is when I start my game (and I have every requiered addon installed) that the options (new game, continue, options) doesnt appear. Only the skyrim symbol and the fog beggins to appear after a while. What did I do wrong?
