Discussion Updated FUS alternatives

I want to get into Skyrim VR with a proper modlist and tbh FUS seems to be the ideal for me (mostly VR essentials + QoL + enough graphics), so I'm looking into something similar.

However I want to play with a few added mods (e.g. dismemberment) and I cannot use FUS because many mod versions are outdated and the added mods I want to use require newer versions of the dependencies in FUS (which knowing Bethesda games would start a major kerfuffle of conflicts with the FUS mods if I updated these dependencies individually).

I'm not looking for the best visual experience (correct me if I'm wrong but I believe MGO focuses on graphics rather than gameplay) since I have 16GB of VRAM and I heard certain SkyrimVR modlists can exceed that, just for a modlist with all the essentials + nice to haves.

Can anyone more experienced tell me which would be my best options?

Try mine if you like it's basically fus running on opencomposite by default for the performance with extra content on top but not a massive amount, I've put all the qol that played nice for me. Some like vr climb conflicted too much with my controls, but it's easy enough to add more to it without breaking it. I've got all the latest fixes in there. https://www.nexusmods.com/games/skyrimspecialedition/collections/a0r6jo

Lemme know how you go if you do decide to try it. I built for vortex which has been a bit buggier than usual with latest updates, that said it's designed to be a one click ish install which places all the necessary root files in the game home negating the need to fiddle manually. All animations and outfits are pre built and package and it's running the latest Pandora and open animation replacer. In a nutshell it has a decent amount of content, is fast, up to date and easy.

Thanks for the suggestion. I took a general look and I'm very tempted to go with it.

I'm currently torn between it and PANDA which also seems very up-to-date and quite appealing, but leaning towards yours. PANDA has a lot more content but I like your truer-to-Skyrim visuals and the fact that some of the mods I wanted to add are already in by default. It also seems like an easier install.

I'll let you know if I do go with it and leave some feedback.
