I'm new to Mods...

I want to know how often mods clash with other mods, particularly this list of mods that interest me. I'm 100% new to using any kind of mods and would like to know how much trouble this will give me.

Feel free to suggest some other mods. (Lore friendly, no drastic changes, etc)

I will suggest reviewing this thread that was just recently created. It actually touches on the same thing. http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1396155-mod-recommendations-for-a-new-pc-player/

Well I have a pretty good Idea of what I want, but I want to know if these mods would clash with eachother... will they cause glitches in other parts of the game

That thread covers ways to get started in understanding what modding is and how to do it safely. The best advice I ever got was to read all the material that was provided by the authors.

I know that I run several of the ones in your list with no adverse affects, but systems and experiences can vary. As with any mod, you need to refer to the mod author's reademe to see about know conflicts and incompatibilities.

Mods that change the same things or add to leveled list can cause the most common issues. One needs to implement a Bash file when using mods of this nature.

Alright, and thanks a bunch. I'll get right on it. :thumbsup:
