After deciding to get back into Skyrim (this time on PC), I added a ton of mods because PC mustard race and whatnot. One of these mods was 'Personalized Music,' which lets you add your own music to Skyrim in addition to the vanilla soundtrack. What I love is that you can add music to a lot of different categories, like Combat, Exploration at Night, Exploration at Day, Towns, Taverns, etc.
Anyone have some good ideas for songs to add to Skyrim? I already added a few tracks from The Witcher 2 and I think they fit really well into Skyrim.
Epic Music Overhaul Skyrim
The Witcher 2- The Path of a Kingslayer (Combat music)
The Witcher 2- Howl of the White Wolf (Combat music)
The Witcher 2- A Nearly Peaceful Place (Exploration during Day)
Greetings, talented modders of The Nexus Forums. I come in peace. (lol jk)
No seriously, I was just wondering if anyone knows what happened to the Fantasy Music Overhaul mod. It got removed recently I believe, 'cause I downloaded it like just a few months ago. And last year a special version called Fantasy Music Overhaul: Tropical Edition was removed as well. I used to have a copy of it on my system, but after my HDD died I lost it. Would anyone please be so kind to upload their copy to Mediafire (or any other file sharing site) and send me the link? I would be very grateful.
Fantasy Music Overhaul: Tropical Edition
Here we’ll run through 22 of the best ENBs available for Skyrim. ENB stands for “Environmental Notice Bulletin”, an additional file that significantly improves graphics or environments of the game, and basically serves as a graphical or stylistic overhaul. Those who are looking to change the old visuals of Skyrim to completely new and impressive ones should consider checking out some of the excellent mods.
22 Best Skyrim SE ENB Mods
1. The Grim and Sombre
This ENB mod is specifically used to apply different color schemes to the game, and you can choose any of the schemes such as Vaermina, Malacath, Jyggalag, Hircine, and Azura. It’s fun to apply different colors and keep experimenting until you have the one that’s just right for you.
Download here.
2. K ENB Pure Light
This one particularly focuses on improving colors and lights of the game’s areas, but it can be quite an intensive mod to run, and you may find your performance struggling if you use this ENB. If your PC can handle it, though, check out this stunning mod to drastically improve the lighting of Skyrim.
Download here.
3. Tranquillity ENB
Tranquillity is a great environmental overhaul mod that greatly improves the environments of vanilla Skyrim, which, let’s be honest, looked pretty bad. Give your Skyrim a peaceful vibe with this excellent ENB.
Download here.
4. Rudy ENB
This ENB adds a very nice overlay to the look of the environments. The main advantage is that it doesn’t take a particularly powerful PC to run, whilst it still gives you overall improved lighting and atmosphere. A good halfway point for people with less-than-optimal PCs.
Download here.
5. RealLike ENB
A gorgeous and colorful ENB that aims to make Skyrim prettier, sharper, and more vibrant, whilst also balanced for both weak and powerful PCs. Whether you’re playing on a super beefy Titan-infused PC or a crappy notebook laptop, you’ll be able to enjoy this graphical overhaul.
Download here.
6. Snapdragon Prime
The best part is that bokeh effect (blur created by out-of-focus images) that makes the Skyrim look great and far more fantastical. Also, it brings you several additional schemes to choose from and those three slots that you can fill with your favorite ENB mods.
Download here.
7. Vividian ENB
It creates a dreamy look or a soft tone environment that is perfect for the forests or foggy places. Great for improving the many, many forests, foggy places, marshes, and more that’ll you be spending hours walking through.

8. Stakado Cinemascope ENB
If you want your surrounding having a cinematic feel, then go for this ENB. It scatters the filmy look in the environments, so it feels more spectacular while exploring.
Download here.
9. Antique Dragon
To get the best color schemes in almost all the environments this is a must have ENB and thus it comes as one of the top Skyrim mods. Just try it and you will get to know what the real magic in this ENB is. A truly stunning mod!
Download here.
10. Noir ENB
This creates a wonderful aura that contains black and white or similar tones. The ENB mod works amazingly with warm shades and makes everything stand out. Great for building a moodier, more atmospheric Skyrim.
Download here.
11. JK’s SKYRIM
The mod dramatically improves cities and towns, making them look and feel more alive. It helps to give the game world an entirely different feel, making some of the towns and cities feel almost like a completely different game.
Download here.
12. Ultimate HD Fire Effects
Most of the time, the fire in Skyrim looks weak and underwhelming, especially when it comes from a fireball flying out of your hand. It’s a big part of why vanilla Skyrim’s magic always felt so weak and unappealing to me, the spell effects just look naff. This mod fixes that issue and vastly improves the look of all fires and fire spells.
Download here.
13. Wet and Cold
The world of Skyrim is meant to be a wet, cold, and harsh place in the far Northern region of Tamriel. So, why doesn’t it feel like it? Sure, vanilla Skyrim has plenty of snow and big mountains, but you never get the sense that it’s a particularly cold and harsh place to live. The people certainly don’t seem to mind! This mod intends to alleviate that problem, by making the world of Skyrim feel wetter, colder, and generally more unpleasant. Characters will dress more appropriately for these harsh conditions and will react more to the cold.
Download here.
14. Race Menu
This one adds more details to the characters so you can make your character look much better than vanilla Skyrim allows. Using this, you can tweak small details like eyes, hair, brows, beards, etc. for both male and female of any race. Make your character look more like you intended with this great character customization mod.
Download here.
15. Skysight Skins
A great mod that makes the skin and characters of Skyrim look much better and far more detailed. It helps to make the people of Skyrim look prettier and less… well, ugly. I mean, just look at that man’s skin! Very nice.
Download here.
16. Pure Waters or Realistic Water
There’s a lot of water in Skyrim, and in vanilla Skyrim, it doesn’t exactly look very good. You’re going to seeing it and wading through it a lot during your adventures, so why not make it look cleaner, prettier, and just better overall basically? There are two options for improving the appearance of the water in Skyrim: Pure Waters and Realistic Water. Realistic Water aims to simulate realistic water physics and fluid motion, while Pure Waters makes the water appear calmer and more placid.
Download Pure Waters here.
Download Realistic Water here.
17. Skyrim Flora Overhaul
This one improves all the greenery to a great scale, so the forests look excellent. Also, it improves the lighting in these areas and improves the grass textures even more. It adds details to forests and makes all the woods looking entirely new.
Download here.
18. Tetrachromatic ENB
This wonderfully colorful and vibrant mod aims to make the world of Skyrim feel more fantastical and mythical and less flat and ordinary. Think more Lord of the Rings, less historical Viking fan-fiction. Also, you get to say tetrachromatic, which is fun, too.
Download here.
19. Re-Engaged ENB
It is an improved version of Vividian ENB that creates an environment of soft tone that suits foggy places. A better option for those who are willing to push their PCs to their best for the sake of a beautiful Skyrim. Good stuff!
Download here.
20. Nyclix’s ENB-Reshade
This mod is such a blessing as it makes all the environments colorful and alive and it is available for both ReShade and ENB. A great way to make the world of Skyrim more vibrant and dynamic and less grey/brown and less dull.
Download here.
21. Cinematic Film Looks
As the name implies, this is another version of the Cinemascope ENB that creates a film-inspired aesthetic for the environments of Skyrim. This mod aims to give Skyrim a more cinematic look and feel, but it’s up to you to decide whether that’s something you want.
Download here.
22. Zera ENB
This one works with weather mods such as Climates of Tamriel, Dolomite weathers, Natural Atmospheric Tamriel, Surreal Lighting, Vanilla Weather, etc. It’s a great way to bring together some of the best weather overhaul mods available to Skyrim to have the weather, sky, and environments all looking as bright, vibrant, and detailed as possible.
Download here.
Including ENBs with Skyrim make the entire game world a spectacular place to perform gameplay. Every one of these mods is the best Skyrim ENB that you can try from standard rim to special rim. These are a fantastic source to have improved graphics to a great extent so try any of them and share how it feels after having these mods.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim remains a milestone game more than five years after its initial release. And since it doesn’t look like we’re getting another entry in Bethesda’s RPG series for a while longer (no, Elder Scrolls Online doesn’t count), even the most dedicated Skyrim player might be looking for ways to get some new life out of the original game.
Fortunately, modders have been making vanilla Skyrim better since the game came out. And we’re not just talking about improving the graphics, either (though graphics mods are awesome). At this point, there are mods that add new characters, questlines, enemies, spells, and even new areas to explore. If Skyrim was starting to feel a little dull after five years, these mods will make it feel fresh again.
What You’ll Need
This guide is for the original PC version of Skyrim, not the Special Edition. The original game has the best selection of mods. Some might be available for the Special Edition too (and a few are also on the Xbox One and PS4 versions), but the original PC game is still the way to go if you want to customize your experience.

In addition, some of the more advanced mods can’t be found on the Steam Workshop, which is the de facto repository (and the easiest to use for beginners). For more complex fare, you’ll want to upgrade to the third-party Nexus Mod Manager, which we’ve shown you how to use here. You might want to start with Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE), a prerequisite for many advanced game mods. Lots of them need the Mod Configuration Menu as well.
A Better User Interface
The user interface in Skyrim is designed to be usable with both a mouse and keyboard and a standard console controller. Regrettably, that means it’s not particularly good at either of them, including a lot of tedious scrolling and no real options for organization. Enter SkyUI, the overhauled custom user interface. With this installed you can search your inventory by text, organize items by weight when you’re over encumbered, colored icons for item types, and integration across all shop and lootable menus, too.
New Followers
The follower system is a staple of Bethesda RPGs. But most of the companions you can recruit in Skyrim are either fairly limited characters designed to be battle companions, or tied to specific quests and unavailable for the longer game. There are a wide variety of add-on followers available as game mods that insert new characters specifically designed to be interesting or useful. Some of the best examples include custom-recorded voice lines from the community, full backstories and quests that flesh out the character, and unique equipment to make them stand out from the polygonal crowd. Inigo the good-natured Khajit wanderer and Vilja the generational warrior are good places to start.
Better Dragons
The massive dragon battles in Skyrim differentiate it from the rest of The Elder Scrolls, and they were a huge selling point before the game’s release. But after a few dozen hours, dragons cease to be any particular challenge, and there are only a handful of different types. To add some spice to Tamriel’s skies, try the Diverse Dragons Collection, an omnibus mod that combines custom dragons from a bunch of different creators. These souped-up beasts come with custom attacks and creature models, special effects, and lots of combat modifiers that can make them a real challenge. Speaking of which, if all you want is more epic dragon fights, you can try Deadly Dragons (which can be combined with Diverse Dragons Collection). If you want even more motivation to become a legendary dragon slayer, try a “souls for perks” mod, which lets you trade a leveled amount of dragon souls for skill improvements instead of the standard dragon shouts.
More Magic and Tougher Combat
Skyrim’s magic and combat aren’t its best features—games like Dark Souls and Shadow of Mordor have it beaten dead to rights when it comes to the sheer mechanical joy of fighting. Modders, thankfully, have expanded both of these areas. Duel makes combat more deadly, making it more important to dodge attacks and find the right time to strike rather than simply tanking or blocking all damage. You’ll have to use actual tactics in each and every fight… something most Skyrim players probably haven’t done since they maxed out their Smithing score. There’s not much that can be done for Skyrim’s magic system except expand the spells and effects, but several mods do that to a spectacular degree, including Midas Magic Evolved and Apocalypse Magic.
Explore New Lands
Easily the most ambitious Skyrim mods are the ones that add entirely new areas to the game, or transform existing ones with a ton of new content. Falskaar is surely the biggest of the big, adding a whole new island to the land of Skyrim brimming with new characters, new quests, and a new storyline to follow. It’s full of dozens of custom voiced characters, new equipment, spells, and books, and even custom-made music. There’s also Enderal: The Shards of Order, a total conversion that essentially creates an original fantasy RPG using Skyrim as its backbone. With a completely customized continent and dozens of hours’ worth of quests and gameplay, you can think of this as a community-made companion game (that just happens to be free). A few other examples include Moonpath to Elsewyr, The Forgotten City, and The Cyrodiil Frontier.
…Or Just Change the Wallpaper
There are innumerable mods out there that are made and installed just for fun, like the one that replaces dragons with Thomas the Tank Engine or adds a custom “IKEA-born” race. But for a bit of fun that doesn’t actually change Skyrim‘s core gameplay, I recommend Uncle Sheogorath’s custom loading screens. This mod replaces the flavor text that appears whenever you go to a new area with sarcastic and goofy alternative descriptions. It’s a great way to get a quick chuckle without messing up the balance of the rest of the game.

Kyo Akiara’s Top 10 Mods for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Hey everyone, Shaun Meyers (Kyo Akiara) here again writing about my favorite mods for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. There are various mods I will be covering from graphical overhauls, to audio improvements. The first mods I will cover are the Graphical Improvements. With the Skyrim Creation Kit releasing February 7th 2012, I figured this article would be appropriate to commemorate it’s release with the mods that came out before then.
Graphical Improvement Mods:
1. The First of my many favorite Mods is Vurt’s Skyrim Flora Overhaul which greatly improves the games plant life, making the game feel more alive and lush. While the mod is still a work in progress (much like most of the mods on Skyrim Nexus), the mod already does an amazing job at adding to the atmosphere of the game. Current features of the mod as of February 6th 2012 are as follows: More color variations for the trees, Aspen has 3 different colors, pines has 4 different bark textures and 3 different branch colors,Whiterun tree (both live and dead version, new bark and branches) Ground cover – grasses, ferns and plants retextures. More will be added, Shrubs – new textures for the most common shrubs, Snowy pines, both fully snow covered and half covered versions, Potato Plant. This is one mod for me, I thinks its essential to playing the game!
2. The second of my favorite Graphical mods is a Visual Improvement mod, the FXAA Post Process Injection mod. Created by [some dude], BeetleatWar1977, [DKT70], Violator, and fpedace, this mod does a great job of improving the visual quality of the game by allowing you to customize your own personal settings to the visual style you want. The mod adds FXAA Anti-Aliasing, instead of the games stock MSAA and tools to customize the quality based on your computer’s performance using the FXAA tool. The mod also adds in Improved sharpening, Bloom Effects, Technicolor, and Tone Mapping, all with adjustable sliders to set the game up to your liking, while it requires some tweaking of your own to find your own personal settings, this is another mod that is essential to my gameplay.
3. The third mod I heavily enjoy is the Sexy Cities Series of mods. This series of mods heavily improves the various cities in Skyrim with a bevy of improvements. While still a work in progress, the mod has improved Whiterun, Windhelm, Riften, Winterhold Collect as well as a number of smaller villages and towns. The mod improves the Vibrancy and Saturation as well as improves various textures within the cities. The mod uses a subtle mix of High Resolution textures along with the games Default textures, and produces a very pleasing to the eye improvement. This mod does incredibly well at improving the game and I definitely recommend this one.
4. The final Graphical Improvement Mod I will mention is Xenius’ Character Enhancement Series of mods. These mods I can’t recommend highly enough. They are probably one of the most essential mods to playing the game. The mods Improve various parts of your character. The mods include: Detailed Faces, Detailed Bodies, Detailed Lips, No More Blocky Faces, High Quality Eyes, High Resolution Scars, Weathered Warpaint and Improved Dirt, High Resolution Face Maps for Men, FemFeet by Phygit, Lashmaker Eyelash Alpha Resource. The mods greatly improve the look of characters in the game and it’s difficult to play the game without this mod installed as it’s improvement is so immense. The mod Features are as follows:
– Adds more detail to skin of faces and bodies
– Gets rid of angular shapes caused by compressed normal maps
– Adds a lot more detail to the eyes
– Makes the fingernails more visible
– Removes jagged edges from the lips
– Adds more detailed, healed scars
– Makes the warpaint look more weathered
– Makes the face dirt more detailed
– Adds high quality female feet
– Gets rid of neck seams
– Adds more detail to skin of faces and bodies
– Gets rid of angular shapes caused by compressed normal maps
– Adds a lot more detail to the eyes
– Makes the fingernails more visible
– Removes jagged edges from the lips
– Adds more detailed, healed scars
– Makes the warpaint look more weathered
– Makes the face dirt more detailed
– Adds high quality female feet
– Gets rid of neck seams
Audio Enhancement Mods:
1. The first audio enhancement mod I will be covering is an incredibly well done overhaul called, Psyrim 2.0 Total Music Overhaul. This mod completely overhauls the music within the game adding 61 new music tracks from exploring to the main menu. The music is changed to Psytrance/Ambient Trance music, and it fits the game almost perfectly. It almost has a Mass Effect like feel, but it greatly fits the fantasy setting, giving the game a more mystical and wondrous feeling, more of a mysterious world. I recommend this mod highly if you want your game to feel more mysterious and mystical.
2. The second audio mod I will be covering is the SoundsofNature Series. This mod is still a work in progress and only has 3 releases as of right now: Water, Fire and Sabre Tooth Tiger sounds, but with just these 3 improvements the game world feels that much more alive and greatly improves your experience and the immersion within the game world. The mods are of higher bit-rate, variety, and audio quality compared to the games default sounds. I highly recommend these mods and to keep an eye out for future releases.
Weather Mods:
1. The first weather mod greatly improves the sounds of thunder during a rainstorm. Immersive Skyrim Thunder is a mod that adds more oomph and power to the games thunder sounds, which I thought the games default thunder was lacking.

Aap se milkar mp3meet.com hindi.
2. The second weather mod that I recommend is called Heavy Rain. As the title suggests this increases the amount of rainfall seen on screen, and makes rainstorms actually feel like rainstorms, another area I felt was lacking heavily.
3. The third and final weather mod that is a great improvement is called Nicer Snowflakes. As you may guess this mod improves the quality of the snowflakes within the game to higher resolution. There are 4 different styles of snowflakes for the mod as well, Light, Magical, Realistic and Whimsical, which all add a different style of snow fall.
User Interface Mods
1. The first User Interface Mod I will cover, and probably the most required mod on Skyrim for PC is SkyUI, which improves the User Interface by 10 fold. The mod adds greater functionality for PC users compared to the default and otherwise clunky and frustrating UI.

2. The second User Interface mod that i recommend is called Immersive Hud. This mod put simply Removes the Hud until you need to see it, IE in battles, but you can also crouch to show the hud to view the compass. I recommend this UI mod to anyone that wants a more immersive experience and doesn’t want their screen clogged with windows constantly.
3. The third and final mod in the article is a font replacing mod, called simply Main Font Replacement. I felt the default font was a bit “un-fantasy”, and this mod greatly changes that and I definitely recommend the mod to anyone that doesn’t like the default font.

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed the mods and articles.
Special thanks to The Elder Scrolls Modding Community for continually making these games that much greater!
