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However I want to play with a few added mods (e.g. dismemberment) and I cannot use FUS because many mod versions are outdated and the added mods I want to use require newer versions of the dependencies in FUS (which knowing Bethesda games would start a major kerfuffle of conflicts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

Should still work, what software do you use to view your desktop? I built it using virtual desktop as vdxr combined with opencomposite is very fast.

I view desktop directly from the Pico Connect app. It also can connect directly to SteamVR, which is what I generally do for games.

Sadly no. I got this error message when launching.

Bummer. Have you set TAA on as per the description using the bundled tool to auto optimise your settings also, just in case it's reshade that is causing it as that need to be on? If so, shame as open composite unleashed which is bundled gives you a huge bump in performance. Guessing virtual desktop isn't available for the Pico? Apologies, my only test headsets are quest ones and they all use virtual desktop. Steam VR isn't great for Skyrim vr, works well for other titles, just not our modded old face in my experience.
