wfandrews Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I am playing the GOG version of SSE AE 1.6.1179 with skse 2.02.06 and just started a new game. I had started the game from the desktop icon that is created when you install this version from the GOG installation files, I do not use Galaxy. After I had created the ini files I installed skse and a few more mods to start the game from the opening sequence so as to play thru to when you exit the cave. Some of the files were esp files such as USSEP. When I started the game with skse all the esp files were deactivated. I got a message that those esp's were deactivated and whether I wanted to activate them. I know that USSEP is an esm file but is loaded in the load order as esp. I experimented a little and found that if I started the game from the desktop icon without skse that the files were activated. If I started the game thru skse the esp files were deactivated. When I activated them with the in-game menu they stayed activated but any mods that I installed afterwards with an esp were deactivated when I launched the game with skse. I have never had this happen before and I am one of those people who is constantly starting a new game. Does anyone know the cause of this and what I can do about it?

alphafr Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 (edited) You mean all plugins are turned off after starting the game via SKSE? One of your mod is likely missing or have an outdated/unrecognized master file (a hard requirement one) and the mod manager default into safe mode by turning all mods off Starting the game without SKSE will actually not load any of your mods so whatever issue arise it won't have an impact because of that so it wont trigger safe mode Edited August 14 by alphafr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wfandrews Posted August 14 Author Share Posted August 14 Starting the game without skse will load those mods which do not depend on skse to function. As I said in my second paragraph I was asked if I wanted to activate those files. When I said "yes" all those files were activated and I could play the game with no problem. When I start the game without skse the only mod that will not load is SkyUI which does depend on skse to function. If I was missing a master the game would probably not launch at all. I do not know what mod manager you are using but the one I am using NMM CE would just turn that plugin red and if you hovered over it it would tell you what master it is missing, as would LOOT. I have never heard of a mod manager doing what you describe. Thanks for the effort though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7531Leonidas Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 A nexus.wiki page that has information on updated SKSE-based mods ( https://modding.wiki/en/skyrim/users/skse-plugins ). You can check your SKSE affiliated mods there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alphafr Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Well all I can say is to verify mods are up to date and for the correct version of Skyrim you have then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wfandrews Posted August 14 Author Share Posted August 14 Thank you Leonidas, I have had that page bookmarked for a few years now. The mods I have loaded are mods that I have used in start of every game I play. The following are the mods I am using. You will notice the odd mods, these are Skyrim workshop mods that are simple plugins that I have used in every version of TESV since 2012; I have been playing this game since 2011. They are basically cheat mods. The mods that did load are mods that have no plug ins, they are SSE Engine Fixes Skyrim Skill Uncapper More Cursory Cursor Main Font Replacer Address Library for SKSE Plugins. If you enter with Hadvar you can tell if USSEP loaded because the table will be beside the desk, if it is in front of the desk USSEP has not loaded.

7531Leonidas Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I see that you have USSEP, but I don't see the Unofficial Skyrim Creation Club Content Patches ( https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/18975 ). I don't use the expanded AE CC stuff, so I don't know if it may help. With you running the latest GOG version, I am pretty sure that you do NOT need BEES, but I wonder if there might still be some problem caused by Bethesda's mod manager somehow, as plugin deactivation was reported after ppl opened Beth's mods link in the menu. I hope that someone else w/more knowledge comes by to help. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wfandrews Posted August 15 Author Share Posted August 15 I will give that a try. Unfortunately I am beginning to think that this is a problem related to my OS and not really related to the game itself or anything related to the game. I have been having problems lately with my OS, which is Windows 10 and have been thinking about re-installing it. I think that is what I will do and see if that fixes the problem. I appreciate your replies and thank you for them. I will get back after re-installing my OS and installing my game again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
