You can download the new version of Nexus Mod Manager here. If, like me, you use Nexus Mod Manager, the Nexus Mods tool for managing your mods, it now supports Skyrim Special Edition. Thankfully, prolific modder Arthmoor has a number of his mods ready to go, including an Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch, which like its predecessor, will fix a number of bugs that were present in the original Skyrim and have been carried over to the Special Edition. The Nexus Mods page for Skyrim SE is right here, so you can see what's currently available. Many have done this already-and Nexus Mods is making this process as easy as possible for them.

Since Skyrim and Skyrim SE are two different games, modders who post their Skyrim Mods on Nexus Mods need to essentially create duplicates of their work. There are plenty of mods for Skyrim SE already So, until there's a version of SKSE for the 64 bit version, there won't be a completely workable version of SkyUI for Skyrim SE (though there's an alpha version available for testing). SkyUI, one of the best and most popular mods for Skyrim, and a mod that many other mods require for configuration, depends on SKSE to work.

There is now an alpha being tested for the SSE, however. Thing is, SKSE was created for the 32 bit Skyrim, and Skyrim Special Edition is 64 bit, meaning the current version of SKSE won't work with the Special Edition. Skyrim Script Extender is a tool many mods rely on, as it expands both scripting capabilities and functionality for mods. 'Our advice for mod users is to expect to start fresh when it comes to playing SSE.' Skyrim SE versions of SkyUI and Skyrim Script Extender are in the works 'Though there is a remote chance that very particular save files which only depend on mods which have a SSE equivalent installed may work, this will not be relevant to the vast majority of mod users because their modded files will have one or more dependencies with a currently incompatible mod. Do not use your original saved game if this error appears when you load it in Skyrim Special Edition: This save relies on content that is no longer present.'ĭave Talamas, Community Manager of Nexus Mods, had this to say: 'Only use original saves that have never been used with mods. We've tested this a bit, and can confirm that saved games in which you used mods for the original Skyrim don't work with Skyrim SE. Modded saved games won't work at all with Skyrim SE

This is only for unmodded saved games, though, and here comes the bad news. So, you'll be able to pick up in the Special Edition right where you left off in the original. Simply copy your old saves from My Games/Skyrim to My Games/Skyrim Special Edition.' 'Existing save games from the original PC game will work in the PC version of Skyrim Special Edition.
