Me and Games

I got hooked initially when I was younger playing various old games Windows 95 style like Aliens Ate My Babysitter and Frogger. First addicting game I played was Age of Empires, and second was Railroad Tycoon II, which I pretty well mastered. I was away from games for awhile, than got hooked when I got my first computer which had a trial version of Fate pre-installed. I modded that a little, but not much. Then I found Skyrim, and modding really opened on a large scale, and here I am.

Experience

I started modding Skyrim mainly because of the bugs. I used Nexus Mod Manager all the way up until early this year (2013). It took me awhile to add Wrye Bash to my list of tools, although I started using BOSS right away. Then TES5Edit came along and thanks to Gopher's video, I learned how to clean mods, and followed BOSS for when to clean dirty mods, etc. I found STEP in about May 2013, and started using some mods from it along with switching over to Mod Organizer. Quickly I found Skyrim Revisited and found even more must-have mods. Thanks to Skyrim Revisited, I learned how to use TES5Edit for more than the occasional cleaning job, and also started using BUM, Automatic Variants, and DDSopt. I'm still rather fuzzy on Creation Kit and scripts at the moment, but I currently have over 300 mods working perfectly together with over 200 esps and no conflicts, so I'm a happy modder.
