Think it might be slightly too early to get a good complation mod together.

I don't try any mod yet,because they don't use the proper system to don't mess the original files ,but with all this ones I guess that they could start a compilation.

The game has been out a few weeks and you are asking for SS E:TW version o.0

I am no modder, but If I had to guess I think there are 2 things slowing down the big mods.

1. game only been out for a short time.

2. game broken waiting for the patchs

SS or DLV I suppose,id like to see at least a compilation of few mini mods.Some people don't have any patience,I dont install any mod yet ,im waiting for a "secure" mod.

What for do you need a compilation, if most players have different ideas of an optimal game, anyway, and E:TW has a brillant modular mod system?

Regarding fixes to the vanilla game, I'll make my own choices on what feels right and what doesn't, thank you very much.

A big mod including many changes at once only makes sense if these changes rely on each other.

I use to mix my self the medieval mods,or tweek some txt or xml files because I understand,a little,the files after unpack,but the new method is chinese for me,and the instalation cause me so many troubles than i have afraid of mess original files.And with those automatics updates,I m afraid .This game is not mod friendly in this moment.

On the contrary, the way CA chose ensures that automatic updates won't break your game at all.
Don't use any mods that use a patch.pack replacement, anymore. Go with the proper mod packs and the user script file (heck, there's even a mod manager out that writes that file for you!), and you don't have to be afraid of any patches.

The point where mods are getting to is kinda how Oblivions modding system is. You place the file in data, and then activate it with the mod manager. If you don't want to use it deactivate it.

Of course this is all because of the modding community and not CA.
