[SOLVED] I will pay you $20 to set up modded skyrim for me (lemmy.world)

I'm genuinely this desperate. I'm a working dad going to college, I just started double classes, and I've just spent all of my free time for the last 4 days trying to figure out how to get modded Skyrim to run on my computer. I'm not good at this, nothing I do works, and all I want is to relax and do something fun for myself.

I'll PayPal the money, it's not much but it's literally twice what I paid for Skyrim itself. I'm just so desperate to have something comfortable and newish.

Yeah.... Mostly...

But if you wanna install new models it gets weird. Every time I have installed a new model or replaced models, I run into major headaches with crashes and dependency issues that take a while to figure out. They never "just work."

And that's using the Nexus Mod Manager on Windows! Don't get me started on how fucked shit is if you wanna do it manually or on an OS other than Windows.

Sounds like you need to switch to Mod Organizer. Once you know how to use it, you have all the tools you need to diagnose issues
