Welcome to SRLE Extended

Introduction and Summary

PLEASE NOTE THIS GUIDE IS FOR THOSE ALREADY FAMILAR WITH NEOVALEN'S Skyrim Revisited: Legendary Edition I STRONGLY ADVISE TO INSTALL THAT FIRST BEFORE INSTALLING THIS.

First things first. I must acknowledge that this guide would not exist without the hard work of Neovalen and his excellent Skyrim Revisited Legendary Edition. This guide use that as a base.

The aim of this guide is to try and make further changes to the base SRLE to help improve the visuals and game play without sacrificing too much performance and I think I have a nice balance here. IF YOU PLAN ON ADDING TO THIS GUIDE AND USING MY CR THEN PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BASE SRLE AND YOU HAVE TESTED IT FOR ANY ISSUES BEFORE STARTING.

Getting Started

Make Sure you have Installed and tested a base SRLE
In Mod Organizer, go to profiles. Copy the existing SRLE profile to a new profile named SRLE - Extended. Ensure you are working with this newly created profile.
Rename the following mod folders in the left pane of MO: DynDOLOD - TexGen Output --> DynDOLOD TexGen Output SRLE Original; DynDOLOD World Output --> DynDOLOD World Output SRLE Original.
Disable the following mod folders in the left pane of MO: DynDOLOD TexGen Output SRLE Original, DynDOLOD World Output SRLE Original, SRLE Profile (this is the folder where Neo has you copy the contents of the overwrite folder to at end of his guide).
create the following mod folders in the left pane of MO: DynDOLOD TexGen Output - SRLE Extended, DynDOLOD World Output - SRLE Extended, SRLE Extended Profile.

Other Fixes

Fuz Ro D-oh - Silent Voice

Author: shadeMe

Version: 6.0

Mod Notes: This mod enhances support for unvoiced in-game dialog. It does so by coercing the engine, in a non-violent way, into playing a generic silent voice and lip synch[sup]1[/sup] file whenever it comes across a dialog response without voice assets of its own. Ergo, mod authors need not create and bundle silent voice files in their distribution packages.

Mod Dependencies:

Mirai - the Girl with the Dragon Heart

Special Installation:

Mod Notes: Mirai is a young Breton mage living alone in the harsh frozen wastelands of Skyrim for close to a year. Originally from High Rock like the rest of her kind, you'll be quick to learn a situation with her father caused her to seek refuge alone in the lands of the north. What the situation was, however; she's not as open about. Mirai had always been a delicate girl, a fawn under her mothers protection -- a sheltered life but with the adventurous heart of a dragon. As such being forced to learn to become more independant so quickly was a struggle but found a way to carry on. Her long time alone in Skyrim has begun to have an affect on her once sweet demeanor and now comes off as a much more abrasive, distrusting, overall 'cold' person to others. Her front comes to falter from time to time as at the very heart of her being she is still the same delicate girl she once was and perhaps just needs someone to open up to to help her solve the problem that continues to plague her from the inside out.

Enhanced Skyrim Factions - The Companions Guild

Author: DreamKing

Version: 0.3.8 (FULL)

Mod Notes: Skyrim's Companions guild questline suffers from being too short and too linear; it is possible for a low-level character, and/or one with minimal combat skills, to quickly accend to the highest ranks of this famed guild of warriors. Moreover the questline railroads the player, denying them the opportunity to make several key choices.

Proper Torch Wield - Hold your torch away from your face

Author: skyrimaguas

Version: 1.0

Special Installation: Install only the main file

Mod Notes: Do you find it annoying that the torch is always on your face in first person view making it very difficult to see especially during combat? The bright fire on the screen has always been a big distraction for me, and for that reason, I find torches very impractical to use. This mod aims to fix this issue by improving the torch mesh - allowing it to be held farther away from the face. This mod is a simple mesh replacer and does not contain textures so you can use it with your favorite torch retexture.
