Before we begin

There are a few things you’ll need before we begin. Please ensure that you have:

  • At least 40gb of free space.

  • An archive tool, such as 7-Zip or WinRAR.

  • The latest version of Microsoft’s Visual C++. (You’ll need both the 32-bitand the 64-bit versions.)

  • No Skyrim mod subscriptions on the Steam Workshop.

  • A clean, ENGLISH version of Skyrim installed through Steam, as shown here. (Non-English versions unfortunately crash the game.)

We also highly recommend a Nexus Premium membership for automating the download process. This feature is controlled by NexusMods - Ultimate Skyrim is not affiliated.

Step ONE: running the game

The first task is to run Skyrim through Steam, which will prepare your install for Ultimate Skyrim.

  1. Launch “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” from your Steam library.

  2. When the launcher offers to auto-detect your settings, click “OK” and then dismiss the follow-up window. (These settings do not matter, and will be replaced.)

  3. Once the main menu has loaded, select “Quit” to return to desktop.

Running the game generates files that Ultimate Skyrim needs to function. Now it's time to download & install!

Step TWO: download & installation

Next, we’ll download & install Ultimate Skyrim using the Wabbajack modlist installer.
If you encounter any issues with the Wabbajack install, please visit the Wabbajack Discord server (channel: “ultimate-skyrim-support”).

  1. Open the download and then place the “UltSky” folder in the location you’d like for your Ultimate Skyrim install.
    It is highly recommended to install Ultimate Skyrim on a fast SSD, on the same drive as Skyrim, and NOT within the “Program Files” folder.

  2. Within your “UltSky” folder, navigate to the “installer” folder and then double-click “Wabbajack.exe” to run Wabbajack.

  3. When Wabbajack opens, click “Browse Modlists” and then click the download button on “Ultimate Skyrim”.
    (Note: clicking the download button will re-open the guide; this is a safeguard for Wabbajack users who discover Ultimate Skyrim through Wabbajack’s UI.)

  4. Click this box to select the installation location, and then select your “content” folder from within the “UltSky” folder.

  5. (Optional) If you have a pre-existing Ultimate Skyrim installation, click this box & manually select your old Downloads folder to utilize any pre-existing downloads. (If this is a new Ultimate Skyrim install, you can skip this step.)

  6. We’ll now begin the Wabbajack installation. Click this button to begin the install, and if you’re asked to accept the Nexus API, click “Accept”.

  7. (Optional) If you are not a Nexus Premium member, this gif will guide you through the manual install. (If you’re a Premium member, you can skip this step.)

  8. When installation completes, click “Install Folder” to open up the install.

  9. Open “Game Folder Files”, and then copy all files within the folder.

  10. Navigate to your root “Skyrim” folder & paste the files you copied.

  11. One of the files you pasted is called “enblocal.ini”. Open the file, and then configure it according to this guide.

  3. (Optional)Click “Create Desktop Shortcut” to generate a desktop shortcut for the preset you selected. (This will also create a shortcut for the launcher.)

  4. Click “Launch Ultimate Skyrim” to start the game.

  5. From Skyrim’s main menu, start a new game. (Note: Ultimate Skyrim requires a new game, and is not compatible with old saves.)

  6. When the game loads and you see “Open the Mod Configuration Menu to begin your adventure”, press Esc/Start to open the game menu & select “Mod Configuration”.

  7. Click this link for the Mod Configuration guide, and adjust your settings accordingly.
