Guide step 2D

[Goffender]

I feel like there should be a thread just for the guide????

 

Anyway, step 2D , optimized vanilla textures links to the STEP - Skyrim Total Enhancement Project,        

 

Which assumes that I have installed alot of mods that i have not gotten to yet. I assume i should just do this later but what about the optimized textures?

Download the optimized vanilla textures file, not the main file. Check the files tab.

Ok, thanks!

BTW, do most folks actually use all the mods listed in the guide? I'm used to like 50, so it seems like alot, lol

Yes. The whole guide (except for a couple mods with specific instructions) is to be installed for STEP Extended.

 

For STEP Core, install only the mods with the green vertical bar on the left side by the mod name.

 

Most people who run STEP use a full Extended or Core loadout. It makes it much easier, as the STEP patch installed near the end requires many of the mods, and everything has been exhaustively tested to work well together with no issues.
