BabattKhan Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 (edited) Why would I be unable to activate any mods requiring an .esp or .esm? I have both SkyrimPrefs.ini files including the bEnableFileSelection=1 line under launcher, and I have a Plugins.txt file in The_Elder_Scrolls_V_Skyrim/%USERPROFILE%/Local_Settings/Application_Data/Skyrim. Am I missing something basic?Any help or even partially related advice would be appreciated. Thanks for the help but I'm on a mac and I don't use steam. I guess I'm just looking for any common errors I may have made but am not aware of. Edit: Update.esm is working as I can engage in combat on horseback, but still no other mods which require .esp/.esms. Tried changing load order of Update.esm and deactivating it, but still no other mods work. Edited July 7, 2012 by BabattKhan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonreac Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Run steam and supported games outside the Program Files (x86) folder structure. Then you don't have to worry about UAC checks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasti89 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 What do you mean with "I don't use Steam"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomerY Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 If you have pirated the game then you deserve to not have mods, go out and buy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
