Qaerixxszhara Posted yesterday at 02:27 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:27 PM So I made a very simple .esp for myself for Skyrim Legendary Edition that removes a spell from an NPC. That's all it does. I loaded Skyrim and Dawnguard as the only master files and touched nothing else. When I enabled the plugin in Vortex and deployed my mods, Vortex gave me an error message saying it was refusing to sort my plugins because the new .esp I made was "not a valid plugin". Uhm...okay? What does that even mean and how do I fix it? The .esp does exactly what it was supposed to do so if it works as intended why is it "not valid"?

ChemBoy1 Posted yesterday at 03:06 PM Share Posted yesterday at 03:06 PM How did you make the plugin? Clearly it was not made properly. I've used thousands of Skyrim mods and never seen a single plugin with that issue. Made plenty of patches myself as well that don't have this problem. I would suggest learning how to use xEdit properly. There are many tutorials out there. Make sure your using latest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showler Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago Since it's LE you might have to be careful that it's not saved in an SE format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I did was load up the creation kit, load the Skyrim and Dawnguard masters, remove the spell from the actor, save and close. I've done this countless times before without incident so why would it suddenly s#*! itself now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChemBoy1 Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Seems like this is really an issue with using Creation Kit, not Vortex. Please ask on the appropriate forum. There is probably some setting you are missing in CK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortexposer Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago It's more or less a random LOOT warning/notification to say it didn't or couldn't (at that time) sort the plugin properly. Can usually be ignored - unless plugin doesn't actually assign to an index. E.g. shows "?" in load order column, iirc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
