Mixing Lexy's LoTD with Skyrim Reborn (JK's and DoS)

I finally upgraded my computer and was going to do a full skyrim play through again. I installed Lexy's through the Wabbajack installer and was amazed at how perfectly it works, but really want to push my computer with additions to the cities since I couldn't even run them before.

I would love to install the Skyrim Reborn project but know that's probably going to run into issues. The focus I really would like to add is JK's Skyrim and Dawn of Skyrim...but I know those have issues with Immersive Citizens. Has anybody found a way to add those in?

Lexy's guide is beautiful and the lighting is amazing. In terrified I'm about to ruin things if I start installing more mods, so I thought I would ask here to see if anyone has done it already or can point me to any references or guides?

TL;DR - Does Skyrim Reborn play nice with Lexy's LoTD guide?

I'd look at the Immersive Citizens Pack on that page. Check your conflicts with xEdit and playtest a lot with 'coc whiterun' and you should be fine. Do make backups of your profile though, so you can always go back just in case.

Thank you! I was looking at the immersive packs and reading, looks like Dawn of Skyrim is out of the question. I'm also gonna give T.O.S. a shot and backup all my Lexy's install. I'm still blown away how easy Wabbajack and a nexus premium membership for one month has made everything! Literally saved me probably weeks of my life testing and setting everything up.

Lexy's list was awesome for explaining everything when I wanted to go read how to set things up and cleaning everything up.

Did you get JK's Skyrim to work with Lexy's LoTD? I am getting ready to work on following her guide to mod SSE on my PC, but I really really really would love to have JK's Skyrim (especially Riften).

I ended up using Wabbajack to instal T.S.O... I think that was the name of it??

It was absolutely beautiful. It had all the towns expanded and looking amazing. I can't remember which all were working on and which ones weren't, but it looked like those insane videos on YouTube.

Be forewarned though, the difficulty curve is kinda high, I had to play the game differently, and one thing that really annoyed me and I never figured out was the spell system. It involved scrolls and all these steps, and it never gave any tutorial and there were so many mods I wasn't sure which one to look up to remediate it.

The Wabbajack install and paying for one month of premium to have it all automatically download saved me like an actual week of my life though. Totally worth it and the most amazing thing I've ever seen. It was completely automagical. I think there was even some cells that needed edited to make all the city mods work together, and the Wabbajack install does all that for you. It was honestly the most amazing thing ever for skyrim modding. I couldn't believe it. It honestly saved me weeks of time for my life and frustration and meticulousness for getting things working together. I can't recommend it enough. I know it costs money, but it was so worth it.
