Pretty easy right? Doesn’t really seem like something that could be potentially harmful, and I bet a lot of people may use this every time they uninstall or even install mods as part of their ‘best practices’ in modding. This is where I get frustrated at the lack of proper information in regards to Skyrim modding, especially when you mod the game heavily. Part of the reason I started this blog was that it was difficult for me to find loads of information on a heavy modding set up, and proper modding in general, all in one place. There is a ton of good info out there if you know where, and even when to look for it. But there is no ‘Heavy Skyrim Modding for Beginner’s’ rule book. Now, if you’ve got some weird glitches happening in your game, and you want to try cleaning your save to get rid of them, in most cases the method I’ve outlined above doesn’t actually do anything. To explain why, I’m going to delve a little bit into what happens when you start using certain mods, and how your save becomes dependent on them. There are indeed some mods that are completely safe to install and uninstall from your game at any time. In general, these mods are ‘replacer’ mods, ones that replace things from the vanilla game without adding or removing any objects. Texture packs, armor or weapon recolors, some sound mods will usually fall into this category. Texture replacements, for example, simply replace a texture file that is already in the game with a new or altered one. Only the specific files that are included in the mod are changed, and because the vanilla game files are always in the game data, the save has files to retrieve if/when the new texture is removed. Saves will never develop dependencies on these types of mods. Some mods are relatively safe to add and remove from your game, but you may experience some problems. Mods that add or remove any objects, equipment, buildings, NPCs, or even perks and abilities are in this category. In general, adding these into a save is no problem. However, if you install a mod that heavily alters an outdoor world space, or an interior cell like an inn for example, and your character is in said space when you install and attempt to load the mod, you may have some glitching or even crashing because you are trying to alter a cell that is already loaded. #Skyrim save game cleaner scripts install The same goes for when you remove said mods and your character is again in the space you are trying to revert back to vanilla. In the case of mods that add equipment or spells, again, installing them is generally painless. #Skyrim save game cleaner scripts install.
