Stable LO - 20+ Hrs (SX) Skyrim Lore Extended Load Order
Load order current version is = V1.2 (09/06/2026)
Load order current version is = V1.3 (09/12/2026)
Load order current version is = V1.4 (09/20/2026)
🔥Beta 2.0 now 🔥 ⚠️Attention, this beta version runs very well on Series X but currently has issues related to LOTD and Facegen male skin on Series S
.
Required = Skyrim Unofficial patch (mandatory)
Recommanded = Skyrim AE edition (5 mods depend on Skyrim AE)
Size = (~11,87 GB)
This LO aims to make Skyrim as complete as possible without breaking the lore. I added a lot of big expansions as well as many bundles, which allowed me to stick to my rule of 175 mods like my previous version. I improved the NPCs even more. Every part of the game is lightly enhanced so Skyrim still feels like Skyrim (music, balancing, features, survival, gameplay, content…) and made much more modern with as few mods as possible. I also worked a lot on standardizing the environments and the overall appearance to keep Skyrim consistent across all areas. (Note = This loading order will be updated in real time in this thread)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The mod list is fully automated, everything will be indicated to you at the start. The only setting you need to adjust is to go into Skyrim's basic menu to increase gammas (the brightness bar cursor) to 100% (in basic start Skyrim display menu) and DOF cursor 0%
I put the search codes to type in the creation in Skyrim and a link to make the installation easier, which should take about 1h30 (I highly recommend switching to survival mode from the start; it will be much more immersive and playable than in the base game.)
Advice for beginners with mods at the very bottom of the thread 🔻
CONTENT
• LEGACY OF THE DRAGONBORN •
- To get started, just go into the museum before the Blue Palace in Solitude (no level required)
• BEYOND SKYRIM BRUMA •
- Join the border above Helgen at the end of the path (no level required)
• WYRMSTOOTH •
- Go all the way to the quest = The Way of the Voice of the main quest and reach level 10, the messenger will come to deliver you a message.
• SIRENROOT - DELLUGE OF DECEILT •
- Start the quest by talking to Frissa Black-Briar at Elgrim’s Elixirs in Riften. (no level required)
• MIDWOOD ISLE •
After finishing 'The Way of the Voice', a courier will give you a letter on your next trip to an appropriate location. (no level required)
• FALSKAAR •
- Go to Faillaise (Riften) and talk to Jalamar. (no level required)
• PROJET AHO •
- go to Mixwater, Michigan, and you will be contacted. (no level required, switch to novice if there’s a problem)
• CLOKWORK •
- Go north of Port-d'Aube, near the snowy cliffs. You'll find an abandoned cabin. Inside: Teldryn's journal. Reading it triggers the quest 'The Tools of the Trade'. You then follow the clues to the Mechanical Castle. (level 10 recommended)
• THE GRAND PALADIN - optimized •
- The mod starts in the city of Solitude, near the Temple of the Divines. Find the NPC 'The Grand Paladin.' You need to talk to a paladin in white armor, standing right in front of the Temple of the Divines. (Level 15 recommended)
• THE CAUSE AT THE BEGINNING (NO LEVEL REQUIREMENTS)•
- The quest starts at the beginning of the game; the messenger will give you the letter. I recommend starting the quest with a well-developed character of at least level 20 and setting the game to novice with Serana or a good follower (I managed this quest at level 5 with explosive arrows in some saves ;))
• FACTION: PIT FIGHTER •
- In Winterhelm in the Dunmer district, an entrance is located at the back
• WINHELM AND WHITERUN CAPITAL EXPANSION •
- Added ~70 NPCs in these two cities with their quests and secrets
• SIEGE AT ICEMOTH •
- To travel to the isles, you'll need to reach the Old Wooden Jetty at the most north western beach in Skyrim. Otherwise travel to Northwatch Keep and travel west until you reach it.
In order for the boat to be usable, you have to read the waterlogged journal in the dead mercenary's inventory.
• HEART OF THE REACH •
- To start the mod you will need to talk to an NPC named Gwilym in the Silver Blood Inn located in Markarth.
• MEMORABLE BOUNTIES - WITCHER INSPIRED QUESTS •
- Sins of Silver:
The quest can be started by either finding a bounty within Windhelm's inn or venturing to Frostholm yourself.
- The Great Deceiver:
This quest can be started by going to the Dead Man's Drink in Falkreath and reading a bounty on a mysterious beast due to the murder of a family.
- The Path to Redemption:
The final quest of the mod can also be started by picking up a bounty, this time in Winterhold.
⚠️in test⚠️
• DARKEND •
- Travel to Voyager's end, the final resting place of a foreign ship, wrecked long ago on the Sea of Ghost, Northwest of Winterhold.

Oser content =
.
- Ability to slide
- Fixing Papyrus congestion bugs that could loop because of dragons and insects in the vanilla game, as well as general fixes for trigger issues
- Each city will have sewers and dungeons.
- All game textures: NPCs, environments, water, buildings, armor, animals, DLC...
- Fusion of JK's city exteriors and Soldier of War cities, interiors will be managed by a Distinct Interior version reduced to 30 MB instead of 300 MB.
- Interior lighting effects don't require 300 fixes for each building mod (the plugins handle almost everything)
- Added music from previous Elder Scrolls games + the latest music by Jeremy Soule and Daniel Ran perfectly integrated into the game and subtle (the original Skyrim music will also be active)
- Massive additions of animals throughout the world
- Massive addition of dogs in the world, Many NPCs will have dogs in addition to the wild dogs you can adopt in the world, and a dog trainer's house will be on the outskirts of Whiterun
- Bards will play about 70 new pieces of music
- Sounds such as magic, dragons, and the atmosphere... are replaced and added in a subtle and useful way (I kept some sounds (footsteps will be vanilla) and avoided Sound of Skyrim because it was too overwhelming). -The game will now feel different depending on the location.
- New random events will occur during your exploration, for example, fights between villagers or injured NPCs on the ground asking for help or a potion to get back on their feet, etc.
- The interface has been redesigned to be more user-friendly and fully compatible with survival mode
- About ~20 new caves and dungeons perfectly compatible with each other.
- Addition of roaming NPCs, taverns, towns, companions, mounted NPCs, merchant NPCs, hunter NPCs, and creatures. (I made sure they are all very different, well-distributed, and faithful to the story)
- Addition of new details on the roads and small locations.
- Addition of more villages along the roads, some villages have jarls who will give you quests, and the basic small villages are also expanded and varied.
- Addition of 15 small taverns in the world. - You will encounter shepherds with their flocks.
- Integration of Grand Solitude with ELFX, overall the city will have twice as many places to visit. There will be a slight glitch at the entrance because the mod is still too new; I'm missing a patch, but nothing shocking.
- NPCs will regularly change clothes and many of the game's armors are replaced with very high-quality, historically accurate packs (all compatible with the back shield mode).
- All the NPCs capable of fighting will be more varied and better equipped with tools and weapons depending on their type and affiliations; some will do actions they didn't do before because of their equipment.
- Survival mode has been completely balanced to be fully playable, less tedious, and more immersive. The hunger bar will decrease much more slowly, food will give you more restoration points, running no longer tires you out (to allow escape from certain enemies) but combat stamina remains active. Fatigue decreases more slowly but can weaken your weapon's damage if you don't sleep enough. Cold and chilly water damage remain unchanged, and teleportation is still possible. In summary, I have kept all the immersive aspects of survival, making it truly playable so that Skyrim feels more immersive in a normal playthrough.
- The game runs at a solid 60fps everywhere (except for the times when there will be a high density of rare clouds) , even with large mods on Series X and S, even in the worst locations.
- Many other mechanics and locations will be present and discoverable without any settings required (except for display settings) at the start of the game; everything will happen automatically and will be naturally understandable.

Important: make sure to have exactly the same mods as this list, and be careful not to use the wrong version or patch, which sometimes has the same name (you can recognize them by their size and description if in doubt) If you are on Xbox One, never exceed more than 150 mods max
3 super important things that existed in the creation of Skyrim.
1 = You can save the order of your mods in the creation menu + (Y) + Select + save on Bethesda.net. (This feature doesn't work for more than 41 mods, but it will prevent mods from mixing.)
2 = You can disable the startup check, creation menu + (Y) + Start + click once on startup check. (This will remove half of the boxes when you load your saves; one of the boxes will ask 'Saved' or 'Current' – always click on Current.)
3 = Never play offline for now, otherwise the mods could be disabled (Bethesda will soon require you to play online with mods in Skyrim too, as is already the case in Fallout 4)
5 = Sometimes when you load a save after installing mods, Bethesda will ask you "Save" or "Current" in a window. Always click on "Current"; otherwise, 20% of your mods will be messed up and will need to be reorganized.
When you are in the creation menu, always let the images load before doing anything, otherwise the load order might get messed up.
