[SOLVED] I will pay you $20 to set up modded skyrim for me (lemmy.world)

I'm genuinely this desperate. I'm a working dad going to college, I just started double classes, and I've just spent all of my free time for the last 4 days trying to figure out how to get modded Skyrim to run on my computer. I'm not good at this, nothing I do works, and all I want is to relax and do something fun for myself.

I'll PayPal the money, it's not much but it's literally twice what I paid for Skyrim itself. I'm just so desperate to have something comfortable and newish.

Never went back to it because I didn't want to go through the exercise of maintaining it.

You shouldn't be actively trying to maintain it. Some mods and patchers like DynDoLOD will break if you change your load order during a playthrough.

Best practice is to get it set up and stick with it until you're ready to start a new game

This entirely. Skyrim/Fallout with mods is a fickle mistress. Once you have her going, don't even think about touching her again unless you want to further frustrate yourself!
