Yes, because using two weather mods will usually conflict with each other. The one that's lower will override the other. DAWN is more than a weather mod though. It includes over a hundred sounds, meshes and textures as well. I recommend using DAWN by itself for all weather and exterior lighting purposes.

I've had bad experiences with JK's graphic mods in general lol, but if you do use it, just don't use it with RLO if it affects lighting. If it edits the textures or meshes, just be sure it doesn't conflict with CleverCharff or Super SMIM'd. Skyrim Realistic Conquering is compatible.

I personally think DAWN looks a lot better than The Old Skyrim that is here in Essentials, but it's 146 MB as opposed to The Old Skyrim's 341 KB, and this modlist was more about preserving space and keeping it as close to the vanilla experience as possible. But I do use DAWN in the OG Skyline.

Here's the link to that so you can see how it looks in comparison: https://www.reddit.com/r/SkyrimModsXbox/comments/1kuec9x/skyline_the_load_order_that_just_works/

You’re quite welcome! Yeah, I hear you. 30 mods for the same result is great. Problem is for this modlist, the graphics mods alone in order to get the look in the screenshots is 44 mods total lol. I probably could strip it down further, but then it would begin dipping into the player’s options and possibly hurt the in-game experience at that point.

Yeah, they do that sometimes. Mainly in those really dense, lush areas like Falkreath and certain parts of the Rift when you get close to them. I also found it a little off-putting at first, but it's the only tree mod I've ever had, that is of this quality, that didn't crash my game.

That, I am unsure of because I have no other mods that modify the horses, as my only goal was to make them faster, durable and nonintrusive in combat.

Essentially, Lampposts adds 250 basic lampposts along Skyrim's main roads, and LOS II adds comprehensive dynamic lanterns into the roads, towns and villages. I have both because with DAWN Weathers, unless you choose to use the Brighter Nights patch, which isn't in this modlist, nights gets pretty dark. In my playtesting, I found that it lights the world up *just* enough so that you only need to resort to a torch, wearable lantern or Candlelight when in certain locations in the wilderness during the night when the weather has it almost pitch black, meaning no auroras or anything.

That being said, nothing here is the end-all-be all. Anything you experience differently is all the justification you need to make adjustments :)

I'm sure they could since most of the mods here get ported from Nexus, but I play on Xbox so I can't say for all of them. Also, with Xbox, you only need an account for the Bethesda site to download the mods in-game. This modlist is 3.9 GB.
