After sleepless nights of constant fiddling, I finally decided to go through the STEP guide in its entirety, and I'm seriously impressed. Â Major thanks to everyone involved in doing this. Â This sort of standardized model is exactly what I needed. Â I have the majority of the mods running (237 of 'em [including the patches]), and it looks and feels incredible. Â I used Wrye Bash, and everything is all ordered and nice and tidy. Â It took a long, long, time, but it's clearly worth it.
The only non-STEP mods I've added are:
Climates Of Tamriel
Project ENB Realistic
Enhanced Lights & FX
Dawn of Whiterun
Sexy Riften
Sexy Winterhold
Sexy Solitude
Skybirds
Fantasy Music Overhaul
No conflicts anywhere.Â
I have a couple questions regarding performance. Â I'm running 4-cores and a GTX 680 2GB. Â I'm able to run everything at medium-to-high resolution, but I opted closer to the medium for performance sake. Â I still bop down to ~35FPS here and there, so I'm wondering about optimization.
Specifically optimizing BSAs.  If I run Optimizer Textures to knock everything (textures and BSAs) back to 2048, will it make much of a difference?  My only gripe at this point are the stutters here and there.
