(Note: there is an update to GOG version, maybe. It might block things that I already have working.)

 

"C:\GOG Games\Skyrim Anniversary Edition\SSEEditQuickAutoClean.exe" -D:"C:\GOG Games\Skyrim Anniversary Edition\Data" -I:"C:\Users\Username\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition GOG\Skyrim.ini" -P:"C:\Modding\MO2\profiles\Default\plugins.txt"

This starts, but gives the warning for 'plugins.txt'

"C:\GOG Games\Skyrim Anniversary Edition\TES5LODGen" -D:"C:\GOG Games\Skyrim Anniversary Edition\Data" -I:"C:\Users\Username\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition GOG\Skyrim.ini" -P:"C:\Modding\MO2\profiles\Default\plugins.txt"


This will not start and gives the error for 'plugins.txt'



SKSE is not creating 'plugins.txt'. ?? I need help to figure out what's the problem.

Is your Windows account actually called "username" or did you substitute that in on purpose?

 

Also, SKSE doesn't create "plugins.txt". That's made either by the game itself or by MO2.

It's a known issue with xEdit: https://github.com/TES5Edit/TES5Edit/issues/1058

 

The plugins.txt file exists, it just doesn't know where to find it because the program is written to assume it's always held by Steam.

[showler]

Yeah, but that's what all the command line arguments are supposed to fix: https://github.com/TES5Edit/TES5Edit/issues/1043

I am aware, but that treats non-Steam copies as second class citizens and I don't particularly like that.

 

Plus other tools seem to have been able to take care of this (and even for EGS support too) without much trouble.

Okay, but not liking what Elminster has done doesn't really help with the OPs problem.

 

As far as I know, the switches should work unless they are not added correctly.

Could you please elaborate on what other tools take care of this. I have tried the recommended switches in as many forms as I could but nothing seemed to work for me. The path always showed Skyrim Special Edition\Skyrim.ini instead of Skyrim Special Edition GOG\Skyrim\.ini.

Yes, I'm going to post my windows username for any hacker to find. :tongue:

 

desktop MO2 --> skse launches skyrim most of the time, but sometimes errors out with skyrim uncapper as "your library is out date." I have to signout or reboot to reset the system then it works.

desktop skse--> launches with default GOG AE Default mods.

 

Either launching with MO2-->skse or skse desktop gives a "library is out of date" for a lot of skse plugins. Meaning the skse plugin won't work with GOG AE Edition.

desktop TES4EDIT, it works with the shortcut. I was able to clean all main files recommended. If I look at the error log in the app, I see 'plugins.txt' is missing.

desktop TES4LODGEN: error plugins.txt missing fatal

 

search documents, no plugins.txt

search main skyrim folder, no plugins.txt

 

The paths are listed above with the my win10 user work as stated above.

 

 

Is skse supposed to create 'plugins.txt'? (this is as much info I could gather)
