So I just had a very pleasant brunch with a friend (hopefully I didn’t natter on about myself and my projects TOO much). Near the end he mentioned that he really enjoyed my post about Naughty Skyrim and kinda wanted to get together a gaming PC to do it on.
And I was all, man, you don’t need that. Just use Bootcamp.
I have a 33.5g partition on my Mac’s drive full of Windows 8 and Skyrim and mods. And I mean full – it’s at the point where I can’t install any more mods because I’m out of space. I’d recommend like a 40g partition if you were doing it from scratch. And maybe Win7 instead of 8, honestly I dunno which one takes up more disc space but I imagine it’s probably the newer one.
My copy of Skyrim was like $7 on Steam, so of course I have Steam on there too.
And then be prepared to spend a couple of days getting all the mods in and working. Here’s a rough install order for what I had:NMM, the Nexus Mod Manager. As the name suggests this manages your mods for you; some of them can be many, many files and dealing with disabling them if they’re too unstable is a bitch. You might prefer Mod Organizer, it sounds like it may work a bit better, but I only found out about it after I was like two dozen mods into this thing.
SKSE, the Skyrim Script Extender. Pretty much everything interesting in Skyrim depends on this.
SkyUI, a new mouse-based UI for Skyrim. Personally I wasn’t too bothered by the console-friendly UI, but a lot of this crazy stuff is controlled by panels they install in this.
FNIS, which is a framework for adding extra animations to Skyrim. There’s a program included that you have to run every time you add new animations.
While you’re tarting up the UI you probably want to add RaceMenu and maybe some plugins for extra tattoos and whatnot and the CharGen Extension.
You’ll also want BodySlide, which is an external utility for managing alternate body meshes and is kind of a royal pain in the ass to figure out how to use.
And then things can start getting naughty.
I’m not going to go into detail on the rest; instead, I’m just going to paste in the dependency tree I slowly built up.
DEPENDENCY TREE for HORRIBLE tHINGS I WANT TO DO IN SKYRIM

Because fucking dudes who never take off their underpants is just plain wrong.
Oh, and the “Live A Devious Life” mod, which in itself is a mod to the “Live Another Life” mod that lets you start somewhere besides on that damn wagon. LAL is centered around talking to a statue of Mara to choose your game; LADL adds a very hard-to-notice collar on the nearby table that you interact with to choose the “escaped sex slave” start at several difficulties.
NOT SO HORRIBLE THINGS
Convenient Horses
? Blaze of Eventide
Because after getting the Assassin horse in my previous playthrough I just wanted a COOL HORSE, this one is ON FIRE, it just doesn’t get any cooler than that unless maybe you are a brony and are riding around on whichever pony is best pony in your opinion.
Beast Race Beautiful, which vastly improves the look of the Argonians and Khajit.
Also a mod that relocates their tails to come out of the base of their spines instead of their assholes, and a mod that gives them proper digitigrade legs.
Pretty much all of these mods came off of either Nexus Mods or Lover’s Lab. I think it should be obvious which ones come from where for the most part.
Also if you actually care about making your game nice you might want to run down the list at Skyrim Gems. I think the only thing I added from that list are the Unofficial Patch, and one of the “roads on maps” mods. I really had no interest in adding the ability to actually freeze.
