VR fundamentals mods?

[Matus]

Can anyone tell me what fundamental mods I should install to play better in VR?

[Dimwit Donald (very high IQ)]

VRIK, HIGGS, PLANCK

And, if you ask me, Spell Wheel and Pseudo Physical Blocking.

Can you explain how to install them? I find them on Nexus but i don't understand the requirements...

For example i installed SKSEVR on Steam but i don't know how to install SkyUI and VRTools

Are you using the Nexus Mod Manager "Vortex"? That's what I'm using. It makes modding relatively simple. Otherwise, just check the descriptions of the mods. It's been over a year since I set up my mods, so I can't really tell, but it looks like both SkyUI and VR Tools can be easily downloaded from Nexus and deployed via Vortex without further dependencies:

What's the problem?

I installed all with Vortex manager but when i start game error appears: skyrim vr skyui error 1

Wabbajack is for lists of mods that can be installed all in one go, never used it myself

Did you run the game with the sksevr exe?
I sometimes have to start the game several times before skse actually works, not sure why... Maybe try running as admin or something.

Wabbajack uses your Nexus account to download and install mods automatically with predefined and tested modlists.

I started to use FUS and it looks great so far.

[Matus]

I tried with Vortex and with Wabbajack but at the end i asked for refund.

That is because with basic vortex mods i can't run the game from Steam link but only from the manager program and the experience with basic mods was disappointing; with Wabbajack FUS, without premium nexus i have to download manually almost every mods and they are really a lot...

In conclusion the VR versions of the game sucks and is unacceptable that Bethesda (a very big company) does not care and leave all the works to modders...

Tahrovin all the essentials

All you need is VRIK and HIGGS and you're golden.

Not enough. If you want to play a melee character you also need PLANCK and Pseudo Physical Parry as absolute minimum.

VRIK = a body
HIGGS = your hands collide with moveable items and you can grab these. But your weapons and hands do not collide with NPC.

PLANCK = your weapons and hands collide with NPC aswell but you can still not parry with your weapon.
Pseudo Physical Parry = now you can parry an incoming swing by making your weapon collide with the enemy weapon.

+ Spell Wheel: access all your favorite weapons, spells and powers with one button-press and gesture, without the need for any menus
+ weapon throw: not really essential, but kinda fun

While not essential, there are a number of mods that immerse you on top of the ones mentioned above. I highly recommend VR Refit - Mine Chop and Drop, which allows you to physically do just that chop wood on the chopping blocks, mine ore by physically hitting ore veins with your pickaxe, etc. There's a complementary mod called Immersive Tree Chopping, which goes a step further and allow you to cut down trees in the vicinity.,

Another one I can offer is Dragonborn Speaks Naturally, which allows you to speak your responses back to NPCs. I still use the older beta which is based off of the MS voice recognition engine, so I can't tell you how the newest alpha works in comparison. I believe, but have not personally tested, if this can work in tandem with the Mantella project with generative AI.

Last off the top of my head is less a mod and more a skeleton key to Pandora's Box. Skyrim VR ESL Support, which basically eliminates the 255 esp limit that the VR edition was gimped by all these years. I now have 569 mods (granted, half are probably patches and such for other mods), but it's so amazing with the newfound freedom to break even more of the game :P
