Add New Question

• Question

  Will this work with any mod available or just the ones on the linked websites?

  

  It's safest to use trusted websites so you don't ruin your game or get a virus.

• Question

  Can I get this stuff on a PC?

  

  Yes, Skyrim is also easier to mod on a PC, as you can simply navigate to a 'mods' section on the main menu and load mods from there.

• Question

  After the mods are downloaded to the USB, can they be moved to the hard drive?

  

  Yes. Insert the USB, press "Share," and choose which mod.

• Question

  Do .zip files need to be run through another program before Horizon?

  

  Most of the time, yes. Although, there are some .zip files Horizon does recognize and don't need to be run through another program.

• Question

  What can I do if I don't see the game save option?

  

  Try pressing Start, going 2 tabs to the right, and pressing Save Game. If that doesn't work, check your in-game setting and make sure "Save on Wait" is selected, then press select, and wait 1 in-game hour and it will have autosaved.

• Question

  Will this have any negative effects on my 360, the game itself, or my computer?

  

  There will be no negative effects on your computer, if done correctly. Also, your Xbox should have no issue running the new content if it has been added in the right places. Any modding may cause some instability in the game itself, depending on the extent of the modification and the skill of the modder.

• Question

  If I install a mod onto my profile, will it affect other profiles?

  

  No, as long as you add it to your profile, only. Always make a backup of your profiles, just in case something gets corrupted by a mod that didn't work.

• Question

  Does this only work for Skyrim for Xbox?

  

  Yes. However you can also mod it on PC, which is a much better modding experience.

• Question

  Is there a way to convert files that aren't recognized by Horizon?

  

  It depends on what files it's not recognizing. If it's a .zip, .exe, or .jar, there is most likely an application that will easily convert the file for you.

• Question

  Re: Step 10: I have a .zip document and when I drag it, it says : Invalid STFS package! Why can't I do it?

  

  Download 7-Zip from the Internet to your computer desktop, then when it's downloaded and installed to your computer, go to your mod file, right click it and click the "extract to..." option. Extract it to your desktop (or wherever you have space), then when it's done, it'll be in file form and you'll be able to use it.
