Patch 1.5.97 - Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition
USSEP must be placed at the very top of your load order, immediately after the official ESM files, to ensure its changes are inherited by other mods. Why Version 1.5.97?
The need for a comprehensive patch like USSEP arises from the fact that, despite its critical acclaim, Skyrim has been plagued by numerous bugs and glitches since its release. These issues range from minor graphical glitches to game-breaking bugs that prevent players from completing quests or even accessing certain areas of the game. Bethesda has released several official patches over the years, but these have often been incomplete or introduced new issues, leaving players to fend for themselves.
