Description
This is the collection of mods that I use. I don't play Skyrim super duper often but when I do I tend to go through my subscribed mods and tweak things if I notice something not working correctly.

The recommended load order (taking into account what each mod dev has said) is the order in which these mods appear in the collection, starting with the mesh mod, sounds, and enhanced towns/villages down to Ordinator.

All of these mods work together on my 10 year old Alienware, they should work just fine on yours. Things to be aware of that may look like mod conflicts:
1. If you're wearing an item that conceals your identity (Dark Cowl or something with the same enchantment) you won't be able to speak to people. At first I thought I borked my game, turns out I just boofed.
2. Blink occasionally lags a bit, that's normal. Just be a little patient, move forward a bit and it'll load your new location.
3. The slit throat option sometimes doesn't execute if you're too far away, move closer after selecting it and either it'll do the killmove or you'll just have to try again.

Changes:
-Modified load order
-Added Realistic Sneaking to make sneaking a bit more difficult.
-Removed Realistic Sneaking because it made sneaking close to worthless. Instead of being slightly more difficult like I thought it'd be, it made it such that I couldn't really be sneaky unless it was pitch black. The lighting mods combined with Ordinator already kinda achieve that, I was just hoping for some more realism from discovery behavior I suppose. Might re-add it back in depending on how things go as I level up. But I wasn't leveling up nearly as quickly with this.
