Is there any mod that adds a "how many" option to smithing (or crafting-like things in general)?

It's annoying to have to do each object individually.

Checked Nexus' top files: RaceMenu. Looks interesting, anyone know it? I might have missed someone posting about it, or it was posted just by link.

Edit: Can I hear your opinions on these?

Enhanced Lights and FX - Changes lighting and such.
Wet and Cold - Causes different effects depending on weather, such as hoods in the rain, seeing breath in the cold, maybe some mechanic of putting on appropriate clothing for weather.
Footprints - Obvious.

Just like, pick from this list things which are actually good and not bullstuff or bugged in some annoying way people don't always notice: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/top/

RaceMenu looks really good. Sadly, I can't use it because my current version of SKSE doesn't support it, and it'd be too complicated to update it along with SkyUI and everything else.

Enhanced Lights and FX is REALLY good. Interiors look amazing, and it works really well with Climates of Tamriel.

The other things I haven't looked into.

I figured but I thought he might have said "end-game archery" or something

While I was checking up on all this, I simply replaced my old SKSE files with the new 1.6.6 version, then uninstalled old SkyUI and reinstalled the new SkyUI. What trouble were you having, exactly? Do you install yours differently, like through Steam Workshop?

Is there a list anywhere of the best graphical mods for Skyrim?

I love the game but the graphics are imo pretty ugly, and I don't really feel like installing 100 different small changes, I'd rather have just a few that are better well rounded

I have other mods that use SKSE 1.6.5, so replacing it would require more work than that. When I want to make a new character, I'll start updating things.

[Sabbin]

Can someone link me to a mod that makes the game a little more vibrant? (Just colors, not specifically better textures)

[MegaScientifical]

I'll get Enhanced Lights and FX for now. RaceMenu would be nice, but I don't start over.

[Katamari007]

I feel like I'm the only guy who couldn't care less about graphical mods :L

[MegaScientifical]

Hey, I don't care either. Just this mod promises a lot. But I'm not installing it, because apparently it has to change a ton of stuff which could conflict, and I don't want to forget this mod is installed and cry about some error I don't understand.

but Skyrim looks terrible on its own

also yesterday i found sunder and keening and raided some sixth house bases it was cool

[Katamari007]

but Skyrim looks terrible on its own

But when you're running around as the physical embodiment of Majora who has left Termina to wreak havoc in Tamriel, graphics aren't really on your mind

I love the console

[MegaScientifical]

Katamari, be careful. This is what happens when console goes wrong:

When I say a few hours ago, I mean I've probably stolen another 1000 more and put it in there by now. What I need to do is reorganize my stuff so at the very least my unique and wanted items aren't mixed in with my stuff stuff I only keep to sell when I get to that point.

Edit: Oh my loving GOD! It's like looking into nightmares! NEVER use setrace Nord on children in this game! Holy stuff that's scary! AHH!

Edit2: And stay dead.
