Is there a mod that increases enemies in locations?

Just wondering if there is a mod that increases the number of enemies inside dungeons, caves, forts, etc...

I have tried the following in the past. It adds hand-placed enemies and other NPCs throughout Skyrim.

Populated Skyrim Hell Edition - Tonycubed2

My mod organizer installation broke when I changed pc (not sure why probably issue with paths being messed up, got so many errors but I sort of want to mod skyrim again) but I think I had 2 mods that could increase bandit spawns.

Enemy (R)Evolution of Skyrim and OBIS I think, it also adds new bandits and makes them harder and can give them potions and things like that. I think you could set a min and max value for how many extra should be spawned each time bandits spawn.

I think Ultimate Deadly Encounters and Spawns also increases spawns and add new enemies. I think it had CTD issues some years ago when I tried it but it is still being updated so might be better.

There are a bunch of world encounter mods also for more random encounters outdoors.

The other person mentioned Populated Skyrim Hell Edition but that also adds various NPCs to Cities, Towns, and other non-dungeon locations

an oldie-but-goodie simple one is Increased Enemy Spawns... no papyrus overhead, either, just triples (or doubles, if you're on a potato) the members of every encounter, so if there were 8 bandits, now you get 24... the only bad thing about it, in tight spawnpoint spaces they have no room so they'll appear on each other before they drop to the floor as the initial spawns spread out; but covers every encounter, every monster every race. because it doesn't adjust that, just amount.

when you come up on a fort? it's going to be a war zone. it gets a bit chaotic. and stumbling into those 5v5 random encounters are now skirmishes of 15v15, free loot galore if you just wait. :-) conversely the 4 frost trolls at labrinthian become 12, so be ready.
