Lorerim Performance Optimization Guide

Lorerim is a heavy mod list with next-gen visuals but has been optimized for medium-spec users. Check out this guide to further improve performance.

Profiles

  • Normal Profile: Offers better performance than the Ultra profile. The main difference is the use of Happy Little Trees instead of Nature of the Wild Lands and the absence of grass LODs.

Reloading Saves

Reloading saves frequently in Skyrim can negatively impact the game’s stability. Skyrim’s engine, known for its quirks, sometimes retains data from previous sessions even after a save is loaded. This can lead to increased memory usage, potential save file corruption, and more frequent crashes. By avoiding frequent reloads and instead playing continuously from a single save point, you help ensure smoother gameplay and reduce the risk of encountering these technical issues. Learn more.
