Introduction and Summary
PLEASE NOTE THIS GUIDE IS FOR THOSE ALREADY FAMILIAR WITH NEOVALEN'S Skyrim Revisited: Legendary Edition Skyrim Revisited Legendary Edition. The original layout of this guide was an add-on to his guide. Neo's guide is an excellent guide and many thanks to him for his work. I must acknowledge that this guide would not exist without all his hard work.
SRLE Extended: Legacy of The Dragonborn was originally an add-on pack created by Darth_mathias and DarkladyLexy with help from the STEP Community for Neovalen's Skyrim Revisited Legendary Edition. The version you now see if an extension of the original. It is designed to be a full guide, from a completely vanilla experience to a fully modified game in all facets.
A very Special thanks to user Ron Hiler who has been doing a Play through of SRLE Extended LOTD Here this is an older version of this guide but will give you idea of what things looks like.
Nozzer's little chat:
NOTE: This guide WILL take time to install. It also involves some more advanced modding concepts. I definitely suggest reading the full guide first and acquainting yourself with some of the tools you'll be using. Remember the final destination is to PLAY the game and enjoy it. Expect to take several sessions to get it all done from start to finish.
Also, please do not hesitate to come back to the forum topic - or the STEP forums in general- and ask questions and make suggestions. If there's ANYTHING you're not 100% sure of, please come in and ask us. I (Nozzer66) and several other people with some experience will help to the best of our abilities.
With that said: It's time to get into the wonderful world of Skyrim Modding. We hope you'll find it pleasant.

Getting Started
If you are starting here from scratch with the standalone install version:
- Ensure your Skyrim install is completely vanilla and free from any previous attempts at modding. A good way to do this is to open your Skyrim folder and delete everything from it EXCEPT the data folder. Then go Steam and use it to reacquire the missing files. To do this: open your Steam library, right click on Skyrim and select Properties. Then click on the Local Files tab. Select the option to "Verify Integrity of Game Files". Steam will then check and re-download any missing files.
If you are here adding this guide on top of the Base SRLE:
- 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 Legacy of The Dragonborn. 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 - LoTD, DynDOLOD World Output - SRLE Extended - LoTD, SRLE Extended - LoTD Profile.
- Ensure you have NO mods in the overwrite folder before starting to install SRLE Extended - Legacy of The Dragonborn.
Legend
Each mod is preceded by a tag for easier management of the guide:
- COREThis mod is a full part of the guide and is expected to be installed.
- TOOLThis isn't a mod, but a modding utility to be used during your modding adventure.
- OptionalThis mod is optional. This is an addition considered useful to the setup, but might be more of a personal preference.
- HQThis mod is to be used only for users looking for a High-Quality visual experience. This doesn't necessarily mean it should be avoided at all cost by low-end system users, but simply that the performance hit might not be worth the visuals improvements on weaker machines.

[Enchantment Reload Fix]
Files to download :

Special Installation: Do not install the following file(s) and/or folder(s):

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.

Special Installation: Do not install the following file(s) and/or folder(s):
- Docs folder
Mod Notes: In Skyrim walking into a butterfly or similar critter will stop you like hitting a solid wall. The Unofficial Patch Project Team fixed that problem in the Unofficial Skyrim patches, but the way they fixed it made the critters immune to projectiles. This mod redoes the collision data in the .nif files so now the player can pass through the critters while still allowing them to be hit by projectiles and melee attacks. The same edits were also made to the fish meshes, so the player no longer get shoved around by pond fish or salmon while swimming or wading but can still do some bow or fireball fishing if the mood strikes. The dead fish even bob to the surface for easy collecting. This mod also fixes the backwards wings on monarch butterflies by flipping the mesh data instead of using a custom transparent texture so it does not have transparency issues with the butterfly in a jar.

He seems able to find the Dovahkiin at will, but what if the player wanted to find HIM? Even if it would be a meaningless encounter, one should still expect a living breathing NPC that takes part in the world to have some place to work at and call home. No longer will the poor courier simply be dragged from his mystery cell and dropped in front of the player to make his deliveries. Thus is born the Provincial Courier Service.

[No Dragon LODs]
Mod Notes: Skyrim, like most games, only renders the immediate area in high quality. If you're exploring, you may notice that the grass doesn't cover everything that you can see, or that there's an area in a valley below the mountain top you're sitting on where the ground looks blocky and just generally bad. That happens because the edge of the draw distance (uGridsToLoad) has been reached and objects past that use a lower quality texture and/or model to keep performance nice.
Dragons, for some reason, have LOD textures and models. At a very far distance these may look fine or even indistinguishable from their high quality ones, but if you're fighting a dragon, you're going to notice him popping back and forth from bad quality to good quality. Sometimes, you'll even have this or this happen.
This mod fixes that.

This adds the required perk to every NPC in the game so they can get full benefit from enchanted items.

The dialogue choices allow you to role-play, providing humor and depth to each conversation. You can be a jerk or a jester, a white knight or an assassin, as the most important character is you.

Special Installation: Do not install the following file(s) and/or folder(s):
- Bring Out Your Dead - Legendary Edition.bsl
- Bring Out Your Dead - Legendary Edition.txt
Mod Notes: This mod is a simple yet immersive mod which expands on the number of graves given to the unique NPCs in areas of the game that don't currently have them. Solitude, Windhelm, Whiterun, Riften, and Markarth all have a Hall of the Dead that contains coffins and urns for various unique NPCs who live there. Their items are transferred to their assigned coffin when they die. The smaller cities of Falkreath, Morthal, Dawnstar, and Winterhold do not have these facilities, and neither do the other smaller villages and towns. NPCs living on farms outside the major hold capitols don't get buried in their Hall of the Dead either. This mod aims to correct this and provide for more uniform handling of everyone's dead. Falkreath and Morthal both have graveyards already and have been expanded slightly to hold more. Dawnstar, Winterhold, and the smaller villages all have space set aside for new graveyards. NPCs living on farms immediately outside the 5 major hold capitols will be given appropriate burial space in the Hall of the Dead for their city if they don't already have it.

Faction Crossbows leveled List Patch
Please note this mod is included in the Weapons & Armors Merged - SRLE Extended LOTD later on in this guide.
Author: Dreadflopp
Version: May 24, 2016
Mod notes: What it does is cleaning up the Faction Crossbows leveled list a little. The original faction Crossbows CCOR/lvl list version is still needed. Faction Crossbows "hijacks" the leveled list. This makes it harder to include in the bashed patch if something else alters the same records, like MLU. This patch fixes that. Everything included in the original lvl list is still included in my leveled lists, only added CCOR/MLU/Etc compatibility.

WARNING
Template:FOMOD_Instructions is deprecated and should no longer be used on this wiki. Please change this template call to use the better-looking and simpler Template:Fomod. We apologize for the inconvenience.| ExpandFOMOD Instructions Unique Uniques |
Post Installation: Remove the following file(s) and/or folder(s):
- Docs
- Unique Uniques.bsl
Mod Notes: One of the biggest complaints and requests I see on the TES forums is the lack of a unique appearance for the many unique weapons in the game. This isn't much of a problem for the smaller less important weapons, but it is for the more important ones we receive as quest rewards or those that are tied to lore.
Unique Uniques is an on going project that aims to fix this and give the unique weapons a unique appearance. The new designs for the weapons are based on established lore for either the weapon itself or the character wielding it, my own ideas have been mixed in too.

Mod Notes: Alchemy is perhaps the most complex skill system in Skyrim and has the potential to be a beautifully nuanced crafting system. Unfortunately, it is also plagued by inconsistencies, imbalances, and poor design choices that often reduce the skill to little more than an easy way to make a quick pile of gold. This mod seeks to change that, to both balance and enhance the inherent complexity of this system and bring greater versatility and enjoyment to the Alchemist's craft.

Mod Notes: Ever noticed how enemy NPCs never seem too concerned when a trap is triggered? Even when a dozen large boulders come crashing down several feet from them... no reaction, no alarm that someone has triggered one of their traps. This instantly kills immersion, even more so when playing a stealthy character. To make matters worse, if the player is hit by a trap it does little to no damage and thus are more trouble to avoid and disarm than to simply walk through them. This mod fixes that.

Mod Notes: Trade in Skyrim is oversimplified and uninteresting. A particular type of merchant always has the same amount of gold and offers the exact same prices as the same type of merchant in another part of the country. Merchants in small towns differ very little from those in the larger cities, and the only factors that affect price are the players speech skill and any barter enchantments. This mod aims to change that.

Files to download :
- MAIN FILES - Pumping Iron - Dynamic Muscle Growth v1_0_1
Mod Notes:I started a character for my latest 'Lets Play Skyrim' video series and deliberately made him very skinny as his back story was that of a scholar, not a warrior. I felt it would be an interesting experience to play someone truly unsuited to an adventurers life when he first picked up a sword. However a number of people suggested that as he progressed through the trials an troubles that Skyrim threw at him, his muscles should grow over time due to the constant physical training he was receiving.

Mod Notes: Find a mod that adds some neat equipment, but its stats and keywords don't line up with what Weapons and Armor Fixes Remade uses for similar gear? Do you use MorrowLoot Ultimate, but have Daedric gear from a mod that doesn't adhere to MLU's stricter crafting conditions? Did you download some beautiful clothing, only to find if it's craftable at all it's made of old mummy wrappings? Or perhaps you use Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade and just want to be able to hide mod-added recipes as well as vanilla recipes of a certain category. This is where I will share my work on correcting these inconsistencies.

Base SRLE Mods Modified For Better Performance
After installing SR:LE, benchmarks were performed to discover the overall baseline performance. Results can be found HERE.
Noble Skyrim
Due to the High VRAM usage in SRLE Extended - Legacy of The Dragonborn it is strongly advised to use the performance version of Noble Skyrim and not the Full Version.
Vivid Weathers Merged enbseries.ini Tweaks
[EFFECT]
EnableDepthOfField=false (This is my personal preference as the DOF of Vividian ENB gives me eye ache.) EnableAmbientOcclusion=false (This option turns off Ambient Occlusion. This is a major FPS saver on my system - I got back approx 7 FPS.) EnableCloudShadows=false (This option will turn off cloud shadows on the ground. This is optional but will save about 3-5 FPS.)
If you still need more fps after that consider the performance version of Vividian ENB or even a completely different one.
DynDOLOD
This mod has a big impact on performance so it is advised that the Medium Setting for DynDOLOD Worlds be used as this is the best balance between performance and the world looking nice.
