So only change for this is to update the file to reflect Ordinator 6.0? No functional changes?

This is the one I intend to use that "choose color" option on to get the brunette... (already have a plethora of redhead followers... kind of addicted to them). The workmanship on that overhaul is spectacular.

See, a little patience pays dividends!

Agreed on Seranaholic. I have an older version that should still work, but since it will take me a couple more weeks to get all the downloading and build work done (due to my RL work schedule), hopefully he will have Serana and Chaconne re done by then (serana particularly). I am cutting back on some of my onsie/twosie follower mods in favor of the Bjinn full pack this time around. Will provide me with plenty of good followers and should free up about 10 esps. Edit: Found something in the Bjinn WM comments that may prove helpful for hair changing ... https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/2tw9ng/help_altering_mod_facegeoms/ I am going to use this on the Recorder Overhaul to change that delightful redhead into a brunette I think. Fits the original intent of the character a bit better I think. For me, I like the slightly windswept/tousled look of the new Lydia, so I think I will keep her as is. And THATS the beauty of modding skyrim... work on it to make it the way you like it. Keep up the great work Darth!

Wow, this made my week. I am about finished with merges on SRLE base build and am getting ready to start on the Extended and my own mods. The Bjinn mods being back up is... delightful to say the least. edit: oh WOW... choosing between Lydia Private and new 3.1 is going to be difficult. Private more young and pretty 20-something, new 3.1 practically smoulders as a slightly older and experienced woman (looks like some Renee Russo profiles....Iona as well... good choice imo, lol). Decisions, decisions...

Good to see all the progressing... I started installing MO and all the tools last night, should be getting to the start of SRLE base tonight... shiney new computer build (see below) working like a charm! (quiet and FAST!)

What kind of mods make the most impact Darth... the texture upgrades or the ones that add spawns/enemies? Or a combo of both? I ask for the reference of mod sorting for some recommendations.... PS. got all my parts for the new skylake build... may get the box build done this weekend and get installing Skyrim on my new SSD next weekend... can't wait!

Thanks for link. Good to know. I do have an older version of Warmaidens, but nothing else.... going to look at Celestine again... she was a good healer back in the day.

This is terrifically disappointing... not only for Bjinn and Ordinary, but also for the Seranaholic, Toccatta, Vivache, Chaccone followers... I had put off DL the updates until the new computer was built... now seems like they are gone... Toccatta with her new healing build was a centerpiece of my playthough. I know its whining... It does have me curious though... if the author is tired, leave the mods up and post "no longer supported" on them... the work is highly appreciated and some of the best I have seen... however to pull what appears a ragequit move seems selfish... maybe its just me. Unfortunate developments that is a loss to the community. This said... any ideas for a healer that can compete with Toccata?

Good thoughts Electro. I "believe" this is what was done with Immersive Jewelry.... basically every fine jewelry mod on the nexus was joined and provided proper levelled lists in one spot with one esp. I like this idea, however is beyond my expertise atm. I am neck deep in tutorial mods on castle building and decorating. I plan to just merge the 75 or so armor mods I have into a couple esp's. Maybe we have an experienced merger out there who may have interest in the project. Otherwise we will have to pick and choose a bit, and then do some merging ourselves.

Some female blades armor love for ya then... https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/55460/?tab=1&navtag=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Fskyrim%2Fajax%2Fmoddescription%2F%3Fid%3D55460%26preview%3D&pUp=1

Wow... allrighty then... Probably a good idea Darth to start a separate thread. You are getting more into the testing/debugging phase looks like and the separate clutter in the main thread can get distracting... heaven knows I was not looking to make more work for you. Hats off to the work you are doing. Good eyes on all the testers and trouble shooters. I was just saying to my wife last night that I can't wait for my parts to get here because I want to get working on my castle and check out this build!!!! This said...I have nearly 75 armor sets that I was just going to add on top of the SRLE + Extended and make my own merge. I tend to collect about 15-20 followers that I take out in groups of 3-5, so all need "fight, town and lounge" clothing. Tell you what, I will add some of my favorites to the "consider" list. All are UNP and where possible UNPB with TBBP. All should work no problem. Be aware a few of these are not lore friendly and some may fall into the NSFW category but not terribly so.

If nothing else, may be ideas for others to incorporate on top of thier SRLE + Extended builds.

I concur with this.... I am waiting for my NewEgg parts to come for the new build, then will give it another check... I tend to do the "noobie read install" and having things co-located makes a lot of sense to me. Keeps the noob-itus from screwing up my install. I have used Helmet Toggle... which effects all helms with wider use-ability, not just dragon masks. Alternatively, this https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/35117/? might tickle your fancy. Ok, move over for the armor and follower collector... check these bloke armors out... some are high res, but we wouldn't be here if we were worried about that would we?

ahhh, good to know. Still have a couple weeks... ordering my new system today. Skylake 6600k chip, SSDs... can't wait. Oh.. and for the leather wearers out there, this ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/72772/? ) looks very well done even though its CBBE.. maybe we will get a UNPB conversion...

I am going to stick with Rayeks End (Mazz rework) until I get my castle built I think. Cool thing about Skyrim, there is something that matches about every playstyle if you look about! Colors on the load order/dev sheet are awesome. I like the green/yellow/red designations too.... easy to understand. Might want to check/re-do link in OP for clarity... link the dev page vs load order item. And I agree... the carriages.. I can disable... but when I have a horse... won't use the carriages at all. So I would probably rather have the esp overhead.

At the risk of resembling a donkey's behind... at this stage of the SRLE Extended pack development, I imagine Darth and his lady have their hands full properly deconflicting the current mod list that adds additional land/explorable content, functionality, followers and immersive fun to the game. Darth has already been looking to trim excessive memory hog files.... Overhauls of this type and size I think are better left to the individual... OR could be the topic of another addon pack on a differently modded game. Grand war scale does not appeal to some, and a separate addon could provide the best of both worlds for those who want it. Please take this as an opinion, as I in no way speak for Darth or DarkLady... however, I DO want to be considerate of thier supreme efforts and attempts to bring a burgeoning mod list to a "completed-ish" level and get the bugs/CR worked out. Thanks for the thoughts and consideration... and Darth and Lady... thanks again for the efforts.

On a separate note and slightly OT, but related to followers... I have used MHiYH (my home is your home) as a must have mod in my games for sandboxing and such. I noted that the mod author removed the hugely updated 4.x version (reasons in threads). The only one available currently on nexus is this, the 1.2v https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/18045/? I am curious if anyone else has ideas on the last stable update... I happened to download the 3.11v in the midst of some mod collecting... but there is little info on it... is it stable, does it work?

I have to say, Beyond Reach and Volgon Isles both look great regards additional (large) content. I have them in my watch list. You all have me salivating to get the new computer built though it will likely be early Feb before that happens..... The telescope mod... genius!

Not sure this impacts our pack... know some folks were talking about this being gone back around thread page 3 or 4 I think... https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/72626/? BJinn AIO patch...

I like immersive wenches/deadly wenches but if something has to go, they don't add much "significant content" are are more of "filler". Good to remove by me. As an afterthought, I know when I was playing previously, when I removed the "needs" mods my game performance improved dramatically. So its probably a "best mix" affair depending on what is more important to the player and what thier system can handle. Nice wiki "dev" page also... I like it!

Darth... Ok, I had scrubbed my bookmarks last night... going to get an SSD for a clean install in a week or so... the order looks pretty good to me. I did a novice read of the instructions... you made a reference on SKYTest regarding the mod needed cleaning... but no further instructions. For a noobish like me, a direction/link/instructions would be very helpful... (seems like I remember a gopher cleaning video... do we treat this the same or something different?) Also, on the armor merges... I am sure there are some out there that will add more armors (I have about 75 lined up)... are there any guidelines on "best practices" for merging armor sets? (For instance I plan to use all the NSK13 armors (merta assassian author)) Maybe include some general thoughts from your perspective/experience or a link to things that helped you learn? I realize this is more than just adding mods and CR stuff... I do believe it does help others of us learn the process better for future contributions. Thanks again!!! PS... to all ... SSD thoughts? I am leaning towards this https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147372&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Solid+State+Disk-_-N82E16820147372&gclid=CMea9s6pqMoCFVKEfgodYnkMiw&gclsrc=aw.ds

Teamwork for the win!!! (and a vastly superior product usually...) Good "eyes on" to all... and Darth and Lady... keep it up!

Wow, spend two days travelling and get three pages... woop! Ok.. as a house and collector follower... I loved Morskom... but had horrific FPS issues there (lighting I believe... but this was a year ago) and I run a decent I5 system. Other than that, one of the most awesome houses I have seen... and the ghost... hilarious. I believe anyone with a mid-low system will have issues. Recommend Khune by Eli for down between Markarth and Falkreath on the border.. beautiful place, unusual and unique theme (Redguard) and interesting aquisition quest. Room for a couple followers. Up in Solitude, the Rookery caught my eye, typical Eli flavor... small, compact, cozy and warm. Not much room for lots of followers though. I have been salivating over the Druids Den re-work for some time... have not seen it in game, but it looks outstanding. Eagles Nest near Riverside is an OUTstanding quest driven small (one or two) follower player home. You need to discover the abandoned keep, restore it by quest through an NPC in riverside, then hire some retainers... Superbly done, and has a General Stores version. ( I know this puts some off). There was a deleted navmesh in the original which I believe has been resolved (not sure). This loadout will be the first I am not using it. I will use the new Rayeks End (Mazz version) instead with its upgraded room for followers. Hunters Cabin and Elysium Estate were both excellent, have used them, removed eventually as I liked Rayeks/Eagles better. Just my two cents on the housing data. Mirai... wow, another custom follower... I am going to have to add beds to my castle. Wife just chuckles at me as I started incorporating on draft paper all the items I liked from a variety of houses but none all in the same house... on a medium sized castle framework with convenience, semi lore compatability and utility in mind... and it swelled from a single floor open concept to a mine/dungeon basement-dragonsreach-like main floor with warroom, upstairs follower and master bed room, secret passages, open roof with catapults and 12 NPC monstrosity.... going to take me a year to build, lol. And Ult Dragons does look interesting!

You may find this thread to your liking with some good suggestions. I have similar thoughts in the items to remove... will take some CR skills. Give the extended pack a look. https://forum.step-project.com/topic/9173-srle-extended/
