Your favourite modders

[Besidilo]

As per title, who are your favourite modders? The absolute best of the best, guys that release stuff you install without thinking twice about it?

 

Mod authors that aren't well-known for just a single mod, that create clean and stable, professional-like content.

 

I'd like to create a shortlist for other STEP users to follow and hopefully learn about some less known modders that know what they're doing.

 

The ones I can think of right now:

• Arthmoor
• CaBaL (yup, his recent work deserves being here)
• Chesko
• isoku
• hothtrooper44 (I think most of his work is fantastic)
• OpticShooter (SparrowPrince)
• Plutoman
• Thomas Kaira
• Xenius

Based on all his work in Morrowind, I like and trust PirateLord's modding skills.

Just one mod on Skyrim Nexus. Not exactly the author I was looking for. :)

Some of my favorites (many more potentially once I see where their stuff is going.):

• Ethatron
• OpticShooter
• CaBaL
• Arthmoor
• Brumbek
• Starac
• Jaysus

I love SRO, but Starac doesn't exactly release a lot of mods of his own.

 

Ethatron definitely has a positive impact on the community, although he was hiding in the dark lately (thankfully he's back, hopefully with more quality work in progress).

 

Brumbek and Jaysus both released quite a lot of work for Oblivion, but they only sport one mod each on Skyrim Nexus, unless I've missed something.

 

Still looking for some less popular modders that I might have missed. :)

Thirteenoranges. Good content mods, you'll only find updated versions of his mods on Steam though.

Found some UDRs in his mods last night. Other than that, I love them. But hate Workshop for modding Skyrim. A necessary evil, one might say. :(

I don't mind it really, easy enough to use along with Nexus. I havent tried many of his Quest mods and the ones I have tried has had some weird in-game glitches, but nothing game-breaking. Apart from his Places, No Blur and equipment mod I'm running his latest quest mod Sorcery in my current playthrough but haven't had the opportunity to run into it yet. The amount of things to do and explore in this game still amazes me :)

While Starac, Jaysus and Brumbek do not release a lot of mods for Skyrim, I nevertheless would not hesitate to accept anything that these guys produce. All three are very consistent and set the bar very high for themselves and others. I am waiting for them to do more, but that is not always a good thing, as it spreads the modder thin and often results in a quality hit.

 

I would be looking for gameplay mechanics mod wizards. These are the kinds of mods that must be carefully thought out and implemented, since so much can go wrong. (Arthmoor and OpticShooter are notable winners in this realm).

 

Ethatron's work is very professional

What about nuska? He's the author of Ethereal Elven Overhaul, High-Res Female Orc Skin, and High-Res Female Nord Skin.

Quality mods, but he isn't as established as some other modders I mentioned.

I use almost all of Madcat221s mods. Its a nice collection of mostly smaller changes and additions that in my opinion makes a great difference in-game.
