Local Files
1 - Merge files: Skyrim has a load-limit of 255 esp-files in the
load-order. Therefore, if you want to install all mods from this guide (600+),
which I highly recommend, then you will have to "cheat" a little. I have merged
some of the esp-files from different (but similar) mods, which saves space in
the load-order. You still need to install the individual mods, but you can
disable their esp-files in the load-order, and only activate the merged esp file
instead.
2 - Mod files: These are mods, conversions, optimizations and fixes that
I made myself. I'll upload them to the Nexus little by little. This section also
contains "missing" mods. Sometimes mods are taken down or have become
temporarily "hidden" for various reasons. This is VERY annoying while in the
middle of modding from a guide like this, so I have decided to post
"missing/hidden" mods here until they become available again.

Merge-Files
Please read the instruction!
Instruction: Download
the merged files, and add them to NMM. Make
sure you also install the mods which they merge. Install
the merge-files via NMM, and go to the "Plugins" tab. Place the merge-file right
below the mods that it merges, then uncheck the merged mods. (But keep them
installed)
Important: The merged mods still need to be installed. These files ONLY merges
esp files to save space in the load-order.

Osmodius Windhelm Texture Pack (DOWNLOAD)
I removed a few textures from this package, which I found to be better in
"Authentic Windhelm". This way, "Osmodius" can overwrite anything from
"Authentic Windhelm", keeping the best textures from both mods.

The Kids Are Alright Fix (DOWNLOAD)
This is a "small" patch, as the original mod for some reason has problems reading
inside it's bsa. This can result in kids with very creepy faces. I think the mod
works as intended if no other mods are loaded, but to make it work in this
setup, this fix needs to be installed.
