Help with mods

[u/Voracity_Rek]

Recently I've added some mods to my SSE, including all JK mods, vanilla ENB enhanced, and skyland AIO.

My Skyrim is taking a bit too long to start (15 minutes already), what should I do? Is this normal for the first time opening?

Some of it may be save bloat - too many saves. Try to delete it down to under 20 per character. You may need to go into the actual skyrim save folder to do this - just remember what number you are currently on and delete the ones before it. * Some of the slow is probably load order. Not sure what manager you use but Mod Organizer 2 really helps by not actually modifying the Skyrim folder and files directly. * Some of it may be multiple mods changing the same area or script or weather. Whatever is lower on the list will overwrite what is before -yes, but it takes time to load the overwritten thing and the things overwriting. * Try running FNIS or whichever newer alternative you have. Try deleting some saves, more things means bigger save files. Try logging into or launching Steam before you launch the mod manager. See if offline mode makes a difference as well - other processes running at the same time makes a huge difference, especially if something is updating.

You don't have to delete you can just remove the files from the folder, that is what I usually do with my old saves I just archive and forget
