Section I
SETUP
Start Fresh
The SkyRem Guide assumes a freshly installed, never modified Skyrim Special Edition Version 1.5.97.
Always start with a clean setup when starting or restarting any guide. Sometimes this is the only way to ensure there are no remnants from a previous modding experience gone awry, or left overs that will result in issues later. Unintended changes can happen to your base game files, no matter what you do to keep them untouched. If ever in doubt, start from scratch by removing, re-downloading, and re-installing. While this is a hassle to say the least, the last action prior to Step 1 below is to create a Backup in anticipation of needing to start over. I strongly discourage skipping this task.
Make sure Steam is not in your Program Files directory. If it is, install it elsewhere. The ideal scenario is on a separate drive from your OS, preferably on a SSD drive. Having Steam installed in your Program Files can lead to issues during the modding process.
With a clean setup, create your INI files, turn off the Steam Overlay, and disable Automatic Updates in Steam as follows:
1. [Launch] Skyrim through Steam to complete setup of INI files, then [Exit] the Skyrim Launcher (but keep Steam open). 2. Click [Steam] and [Settings] in the tool bar. 3. Select the [In-Game] tab and uncheck the [Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game], and click [OK]. 4. Navigate to your [Library], right-click [Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition] and select [Properties]. 5. Navigate to the [Updates] tab, and under [Automatic Updates], change the drop-down to [Only update this game when I launch it]. 6. [Exit] Steam.
For the purpose of this guide, the Creation Kit (CK) will be needed to properly port mods from Legendary Edition (LE) to Special Edition (SE). The CK can also be used to modify plugins and create new mods, though we will not be using it for these functions (out of scope of this guide). If you do not have the CK, or if you are starting with a fresh install:
1. Download and install Bethesda.net Launcher. 2. [Launch] Bethesda.net and click the [CK Icon] on the side bar. 3. [Launch] the CK - when asked to Extract scripts (or unpack), click [YES]. This may take a few minutes. When done, exit CK. 4. Navigate to the Skyrim Folder - you should see the CreationKit.exe now. Create a new text file and name it CreationKitCustom.ini. 5. Copy and paste the lines in the following box into this file, save, and exit.
[General] bAllowMultipleMasterFiles=1 bAllowMultipleMasterLoads=1 [MESSAGES] bBlockMessageBoxes=1
Until the Creation Kit Fixes mod is updated to the newest CK release, download and replace the CreationKit.exe with this one:==== Creation Kit EXE
Before beginning installation of the tools and mods, setup a folder structure to keep things organized. Currently, you have a Steam folder that contains Steam and Skyrim SE. In the same folder in which Steam is located, create three more folders:
1. Navigate to the folder in which your Steam folder is located. 2. Create three new folders and name them Tools, Mod Organizer, and Backup.
You should have a folder (root) that looks something like this:
This PC > Game (E:) Backup Mod Organizer Steam Tools

MAIN FILE: BethINI Standalone Version
Install: Install in the Tools folder.
Setup: Do NOT run BethINI inside MO (do not setup an executable). MO should be completely closed before running BethINI. Under the first tab (Setup), make sure the correct profile is selected under INI Path. If not, select it and allow BethINI to reload. 1. Under the Basic tab, click the [Default] button to load the Default settings. 2. Click the [Medium] button to load the Medium settings. 3. Select BethINI Presets and check the Recommended Tweaks options. 4. Set the remaining tabs up as pictured below.
5. Select the [Custom] tab. 6. Set [Interface] >> [fBookOpenTime] to 200.0000 and click [Save]. 7. Return to the Basic tab and click [Save and Exit].
Additional INI Settings
With the base Skyrim.INI and SkyrimPrefs.INI set, find the SKSE Scripts in MO2's left pane, right-click, and select [Open in Explorer]. Create a new folder named [SKSE] and open it. Create a file and name it SKSE.INI. Copy and paste the following into the new file, save and close.
[Display] iTintTextureResolution=2048 [General] ClearInvalidRegistrations=1
Cleaning The Masters
The following procedure will clean your master files (or other files that require cleaning). This process will be used several times through the modding process. Typically, you will not need to back up anything, but for the purpose of keeping your Skyrim folder as clean (and vanilla) as possible, we will be doing this here.
1. Copy and paste to the desktop the Update.ESM, Dawnguard.ESM, Hearthfire.ESM, and Dragonborn.ESM files in the Skyrim/Data folder (this is temporary). 2. In MO, use the Executables drop-box to select [SSEEdit QuickAutoClean] and and click [Run]. 3. Select ONLY the Update.ESM and click [Run]. 4. Once you see the message Quick Clean mode finished, you can exit. 5. Restart [SSEEdit QuickAutoClean] and repeat for each of the remaining 3 ESMs above. Complete one at a time.
Complete cleaning of Dawnguard
1. Launch [SSEEdit] (not the QuickAutoClean) and load only Dawnguard.ESM. 2. Navigate in the left pane to: [Cell] >> [Block 5] >> [Sub-Block 3] >> [00016BCF]. 3. Remove the [XEZN] record by clicking on it in the right pane and selecting [Remove]. 4. Navigate in the left pane to: [Cell] >> [Block 2] >> [Sub-Block 1]. 5. Right click [0001FA4C] in the left pane and [Remove] the entire record. 6. Navigate in the left pane to: [Cell] >> [Block 8] >> [Sub-Block 1]. 7. Right click [0006C3B6] in the left pane and [Remove] the entire record. 8. Exit SSEEdit, saving Dawnguard.ESM.
Create a Cleaned Masters mod and move the Vanilla files back to the Data folder.
1. Navigate to the Data folder with the files you just cleaned. Select these 4 files and create an archive. 2. In MO2, click [Install a new mod from an archive] icon (second icon), and open the archive you just created. Name the mod Cleaned Masters. 3. Move the backup files back to your Data folder (overwrite), and delete the archive in the Data folder.
If you open MO2 now, you should see the SKSE Scripts and Cleaned Masters mods in the left pane.
Make A Backup
To prevent having to restart from scratch [again], this is a good time to create a complete backup of everything up to this point. If something goes wrong, this will be your restore point. Backup the entire /Steam/SteamApps/Common/Skyrim Special Edition/ folder, and place the archive in your Backup folder, naming it Skyrim Vanilla Backup. I also recommend doing the same for your Mod Organizer folder and your Tools folder, resulting in 3 backup files in the Backup folder.
