Transient3292 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I figure this would be the best place to ask about how exactly an skse mod is updated when they are made compatible with a new version. The mod I'm specifically interested in is the face to face conversation mod. I wouldn't call myself too much of a modder but i have messed with the CK and xedit, and i have a basic understanding of how most mods function. I assume something like face to face requires a but of programming language knowledge. Ive seen that other mods for skse require new dll files to be compiled when updated,and the source code for the face to face mod is available on the mod page. Even if its above my head, i would appreciate anyone giving a brief explanation on how skse mods update. I think its pretty awesome to see recent modders re-implementing some of the source code from chesko's amazing mods. That guy has left a legacy on the nexus and is the patron saint of skyrim mods. I was reading the description page of Simply Knock where he explains how it works, the programming mods are really what are super interesting to me.I've studied the CKwiki about scripts but its hard for me to fully grasp enough to just write some useful functions right now, i dont expect help with that but if i can learn how to update those mods that are aleeady written, it would be helpful.

Daermonster Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I've been wondering this myself, I hope somebody has a link to a guide or something on how to update our favorite skse mods :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterMartyr Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 You shouldn't need to upgrade Papyrus, but .dll (skse plugins) files will need to be upgrading with Microsoft Visual Studio, 2017, which unfortunately is above the pay grade of 99% of nexus members (me included). Go to Uni & do a Four Year Course if you must know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turingware Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 You shouldn't need to upgrade Papyrus, but .dll (skse plugins) files will need to be upgrading with Microsoft Visual Studio, 2017, which unfortunately is above the pay grade of 99% of nexus members (me included). Go to Uni & do a Four Year Course if you must know.  I actually am on that path, but programming is a ways in the distance. This is pretty easy to do.The problem is that the file in question (BeeingFemale64.dll) is compiled against an older version of SKSE. Trying to run it crashes SKSE because of the mismatch.Open the file in Visual Studios, and you'll be greeted with a table of 2 letter / number combinations (hex values). You can run it through a hex to text converter to see that the file is an XML schema file.You need to take the file and recompile it against the newer SKSE, which fixes it. If you know what your doing, takes about 3 minuets of futzing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
