SweetBearCub Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 If I start Skyrim SE from Vortex without SKSE64, the Steam overlay works with no issues. However, gameplay is broken without SKSE64. If I start SKSE64 from Vortex, which also loads Skyrim SE, then the game works properly, but the Steam overlay is not accessible. How can I play the game with both SKSE64 and the Steam overlay? I like to chat with my friends, have quick access to a clock and a simple web browser, etc. Following these instructions (found on the sticky posts section of https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/10694/?tab=posts, since I had a similar issue with MO2) do not seem to help. If I follow the instructions below, SKSE64 loads properly, but the Steam overlay is not accessible. ------------------------------ Make the folder Data\SKSE (if you don't have it)- Inside Data\SKSE make the file SKSE.ini- The file should contain:[Loader]RuntimeName=SSE.exe12. Rename SkyrimSE.exe to SSE.exe13. Rename skse_loader.exe to SkyrimSE.exe14. Disable showing of RivaTuner OSD (maybe MSI Afterburner folks will fix it in the future, currently it prevents Steam Overlay from showing)15. Now if you start the Skyrim Special Edition Launcher from MO2 and hit START, you will play with Steam Overlay :smile:----------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarebuS Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Just run SKSE outside of Vortex. You don't need to launch Skyrim from inside Vortex for your mods to load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toriko Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Run all 3 in administrator mode worksVortex.exe skse64_Loader.exe and Steam.exeThen you can make skse64 primary and run SSE from inside Vortex and still use steam overlay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sopmac45 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Run all 3 in administrator mode worksVortex.exe skse64_Loader.exe and Steam.exeThen you can make skse64 primary and run SSE from inside Vortex and still use steam overlay. How do I do that Toriko ? I am running SKSE64 outside Vortex and playing my game and not problem. Anytime I try to launch SKSE within Vortex, it is giving an error about steam.exe not found or something like that, so how can I make the changes that you are suggesting please ?

HadToRegister Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Run all 3 in administrator mode worksVortex.exe skse64_Loader.exe and Steam.exeThen you can make skse64 primary and run SSE from inside Vortex and still use steam overlay. Or, set all three to NOT run in Administrator mode.That would be much safer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
