Arqade Asked on April 4, 2021
I have the orginal Skyrim with Nexus Mod Manager and have downloaded about 126 mods.
I would like to use Special Edition but am concerned about two things.
So what I want to know is: Can I download Skyrim Special Edition and be able to keep my current mods from Nexus Mod Manager in my Special Edition game and not have to start Skyrim all over again in the Special Edition? Is that possible?
Skyrim from 2011 (Oldrim) and Skyrim Special Edition (SE) should be seen as two different games. Save games are not compatible and by default, neither are mods, though some mods will be in some cases (with possible warnings though). Luckily, a lot of mod creators have ported their mods to the SE version of the game.
Nexus Mod Manager also won't understand that you want to 'reuse' the mods for SE.
You will have to restart playing and also have to restart installing all the mods you want for the SE. Some mods won't be available nor compatible.
I have both versions of Skyrim and I'm currently playing SE with 250+ mods. About 65% of the mods I used for Oldrim had a SE version that I could use, the rest was handpicked and configured together.
