Quince99 Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Have experienced this myself after the game was updated. A new compatible version of SKSE is now available from Nexus but I haven't been able to rectify this issue and the batch file mod scripts, e.g. ship builder limitation remover, no longer seem to work at present.

zanity Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 A good lesson why those that insist on using mods way too early should take the time to understand the manual install 'method'- which isn't a method but the simply understanding of your PC, and your game. Mods for starfield are NOT officially supported, and won't be until the official tools release. Between now and then, Beth actually has a duty NOT to care what updates do to mods. Now the sane Starfield modder would solve this issue by NOT updating their game until all their fav mods have also been updated. Rushing to update your game while using mods is plain stupid. And Beth updates, notoriously, tend to be the most useless in the gaming industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
