AlmightyArnold Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Just downloaded vortex and I downloaded the correct version of SKSE64. I downloaded it the shown on guides and other places and for some reason whenever I click on the .exe it wont start up. I do have a few mods installed on vortex. I downloaded the data file to vortex as well and it doesnt show up in the plugins tab either. If anyone knows how to fix or help it would be greatly appreciated.

HadToRegister Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 SKSE64 won't show up in the plugins tab because it doesn't have an ESP.The proper way to install SKSE64 is this way.Did you follow the instructions in the zip file? [ Installation ] 1. Copy the .dll and .exe files to your Skyrim SE directory. This is usually in your Program Files folder under Steam\SteamApps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\. If you see files named SkyrimSE and SkyrimSELauncher, this is the correct folder. Do not copy these files to the Data folder as with a normal mod. The "src" folder is only useful for programmers, most users can ignore it. 2. Copy the .pex files in Data\Scripts\ into the Data\Scripts\ folder of your installation. The .pex files are needed by all users of SKSE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pex files (Script files in the Script Folder) When you open the SKSE64 zip, you should see a folder named after the latest version of SKSE64Example: Open skse64_1_5_53.7z, and inside is a folder named "Skse64_1_5_53" Now double click on the folder, and inside that is A DATA Folder, (that needs to be extracted from the zip to the GAME folder so that the pex files inside it are written to Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\ folder Thenskse64_steam_loader.exeslse64_loader.exeskse64_1_5_53.dll need to go in the same folder as the SkyrimSE.exe and SkyrimSELauncher.exe Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I wasnt supposed to do that because it would cause issues later on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
