You start by downloading BOSS as I linked before ( ). So, now with that out of the way, let's get to the part that you are really interesting in:
The lower it is placed in the lower load order, the lower the chance that those files will be overwritten. Which in turns mean, the farther up along the load order you go, the larger the chance is that something might be overwritten. However, when you add mods you are basically telling the game to "load Skyrim.esm, but let the mods below overwrite any changed information". This file contains all information of the vanilla game. So for example, the main game "skyrim.esm" should always be at the top. "load order" is the order your mods are loaded, where the last one overwrites anything above. I know that it didn't before (it randomized the load order completely each time you started the game), but that might have changed during the past year.

Note: I'm using and their mod manager for my mods, so I'm not even sure if the steam workshop lets you change your load order. I'm currently using 87 mods in the game without any problems whatsoever.

It's a software that checks all your mods installed and lists the recommended load order for you, and also gives you any warnings if it notice that you are missing some required mods for the others to run, or if you need to install a compitability patch. I would also suggest that you download BOSS (stands for Better Oblivion Sorting Software, although it now supports several Bethesda games, skyrim included). Why? Because if you install 50+ mods at one time, and THEN notice that the game crashes, you will have a real headache trying to find out the source(s) of the problem. Also, ONLY INSTALL ONE MOD AT A TIME and then run the game to see if everything works properly. Usually the author states whether some other mods are required before you install theirs, installation procedure, whether it requires a certain load order, etc. To avoid problems, make sure to always read the readme properly. A) installing 2 or more mods that aren't compitable with eachotherī) Not having "required" mods installed that the mod you DID install depends on.ĭ) Installing too graphic heavy enhancements on a low spec computer (if you are already barely running the game on the lowest settings, you probably shouldn't install loads of HD texture replacer mods).Į)Not installing them in a way that the author described (99% of the skyrim mods are today usually installed easily through mod managers, but there are still some that requires another procedure to be properly installed.
