Class Requirements

Discord - for voice chat with "Professor Houlden". Only those who sign up for the class will be allowed in the voice chat. Discord can downloaded HERE

The Skyrim Game - both Legendary Edition and Special Edition. Special Edition is not required but is extremely helpful as most of the class will conducted using the SE Creation Kit. Much of what will be covered can also be done in the Legendary edition CK as well.
It is a hard requirement that the Master Files of both games be cleaned with SSEdit or TES5Edit. for learning how to clean Master Files watch this video
In both games the mod Alternate Start Live Another Life by Arthmoor WILL BE required for making NPC followers and Test Characters. Both version links follow below
Alternate Start Legendary Version
Alternate Start Skyrim Special Edition

Creation Kit - CK for Legendary Edition is available on Steam and CK 2 64 is obtained through Behtesda.net (required to have a Beth net account) Programs will be required to have Multiple Master Files enabled. Scripts.rar will have to be opened so that Scripts will compile correctly

Nifskope- Attendees will be required to have either Nifskope Pre alpha 5 or Pre alpha 6, preferably both if working in the SSE CK. Both version can be downloaded for free on this page HERE

BAE- The Bethesda Archive Extractor. this can be downloaded HERE

SSE Nif Optimizer - only required for those working in SSE CK. This program can be obtained HERE

SSEdit and/or TES5Edit- this is required for cleaning the mod and for merging plugins. An older version of the Merged Plugins Script v 1.9 is available HERE which still works properly without any problems
TES5Edit

Students should have their Master Files cleaned properly prior to beginning classes! To learn how to do this use the following video tutorial by Gopher. The process is the same for Legendary Edition and Special Edition (just remember that you DO NOT clean Skyrim.esm)
