olafreinhardweyer Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) Yesterday i could not start my game because i got no connection to steam.The solution below might work if your variables and problems are the same: Problem: - Starting the game steam wants to update itself ("Updating Steam")- You get an error message that you could not connect to steam, consequently the game won't start. Variable:- You are a rightful owner of the game and your skyrim exe's are legit- BELOW VARIABLES MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT BE NECESSARY:- Skyrim is chosen to be played in offline mode - automatic updates are disabled- steam overly for ingame use is disabled Solution - Start your game with skse- Wait till the steam error message pops up. - Ignore that error message box. In fact leave it open, resting untouched on your desktop. Neither confirm, retry or do anything. Let that gray little box open!!!- click skse again. Enjoy the game. In short: Open the game with skse, leave the steam error message alone altogether without pressing any buttons in it and click skse again and the game will start. Enjoy!

On that note I give you a Kudos. Many times stupid ass Steam prevented me to play the game. Do you start with the SKSE tab in the NMM or, can you do it through the SKSE_ loader file in you Skyrims files list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olafreinhardweyer Posted March 8, 2012 Author Share Posted March 8, 2012 I don't know about NMM but the loader works, yes :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
