Requirements
The game
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition on Steam. The list runs the game at version 1.5.97 from its own Stock Game folder inside the install, with the Skyrim Script Extender 2.0.20 for that version.
- The list loads four Creation Club plugins: Fishing, Rare Curios, Saints and Seducers, and Survival Mode (
ccbgssse001-fish.esm,ccbgssse037-curios.esl,ccbgssse025-advdsgs.esm,ccqdrsse001-survivalmode.esl). Steam's copy of Rare Curios may need swapping before the install; see the Creation Club step.
TODO: say which Steam purchase is needed (Special Edition alone, or the Anniversary Edition upgrade), and how the four Creation Club files reach a player on 1.5.97. A Wabbajack list usually needs the game updated to the current Steam version first and brings its own downgraded copy; confirm that is how Njordlinger works.
A controller
The list is made to be played on a controller. The button names on this site are Xbox (XInput) names: A, B, X, Y, LB, RB, LT, RT, Back, Start, L3 and R3.
TODO: confirm which controllers have been tested (Xbox, PlayStation through Steam Input, others).
Accounts and tools
- A free Nexus Mods account. Every mod in the list comes from its Nexus page. A Nexus Premium account lets Wabbajack download everything on its own; without Premium each file has to be started by hand.
- Wabbajack, if the list is installed that way (see Install).
- Mod Organizer 2 (2.5.2) comes with the list; you do not install it separately.
Your computer
| Operating system | Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit TODO confirm |
| Graphics card | TODO |
| Memory | TODO |
| Drive | An SSD is strongly advised. TODO confirm |
| Pagefile | A fixed pagefile of TODO GB (see the install checklist) |
TODO: the lowest graphics card the list is expected to run on. The list uses Community Shaders and PBR textures.
Disk space
Plan for all three at once: Wabbajack needs the downloads, the finished install and its working space at the same time.
| What | Size | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Downloads | TODO | The archives Wabbajack fetches. You can delete them after installing, but keeping them makes updates much faster. |
| Installed | about 229 GB | Measured from the current build: 213 GB of mods plus 16 GB for the Stock Game copy. TODO: re-measure from the compiled list. |
| Temporary | TODO | Working space Wabbajack uses while it installs, freed when it finishes. |
| Total free space needed | TODO | The three added together. |
The installed size is measured each time this site is built, so it follows the list.
Built and tested on
The list is made and played on one PC. These are its parts and what the list runs at there, so you can compare with your own.
| Processor | TODO |
| Graphics card | TODO (and its video memory) |
| Memory | TODO |
| Drive the list is on | TODO |
| Windows | TODO |
| Resolution and frame rate | TODO, for example the resolution, the frame-rate cap, and the frame rate in a city and outdoors |
| Upscaling | TODO (the list carries OptiScaler) |
Size of the list
The list currently holds 2067 mods (2033 with a Nexus page, 34 without one, such as the list's own patches and generated output) and 1822 active plugins: 214 full plugins and 1608 light (ESL) plugins.
