Your favorite lesser known mods? #2

Post » Thu Oct 04, 2012 11:02 am

What mods do you consider "must haves", yet aren't very well known? We all know what is in the top 25 or top 100 mods, but every once in a while you come across a little gem that makes me wish I would have known about it sooner. Post some of your little-known favorites here.

This initial page will contain a full list of the mods discussed in the previous thread(s), with links to each. An organised format will also follow, categorizing mods.

General Guidelines: Anything in the top 100 list is well known. Anything with les than 1,000 endorsemants should (IMO) classify as lesser known. There are exceptions, but we all know what is well known and what isn't.

Heh heh . . Rohugh locked the other one just as I was editing my post. A couple more from my list that I was unable to get into the previous thread:

Run for Your Lives http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/23906
So unarmored and nearly defenseless vilalgers get indoors when the mead hits the fan . . .

Alternate Start: Live Another Life http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/9557
Any of Arthmoor's mods are bound to be winners :smile: This one in particular makes playing as a Dead-is-Dead player much more fun.

ADDIT: Holy Mammoth Milk! That other thread already has like 17,000 views!?!?!

Those two are definitely not "Lesser Known" mods. :)

Yeah lol, generally lesser known means under 1000 endorsemants.

Arthmoor wrote in the last thread...:

Do keep in mind that texture packs that don't come with ESP files are perfectly fine. A .dds file is a .dds file. Same with loose meshes that don't rely on ESP files, and pretty much any mod that doesn't rely on ESP files. It's only the ones with actual plugin files that you have to watch out for. I suppose I should have made that more clear.

Yes, don't worry, I had that in mind :) I only removed from my list those mods who relies on .esps.

Yeah Live another life is definitly not going in there. Going to work on the initial list here in a minute.. Also, please don't just seek out mods to add to the list. Just continue the discussion as normal.

Mods posted on the first page are up. I need a half-dozen or so categories to sort these into eventually.. This list is going to get very big, very fast. Any ideas? So far I have these, but I need to be able to cover the entire scope of everything. I would prefer less than 10 categories.

Texture Replacers & Graphical

Monster/Followers/NPC's

Skill/Spell/Perks
