Skyrim Script Extender suddenly not detected

Recommended Posts

I just did a fresh install of Skyrim about a week ago...installed ALL the mods I wanted, etc. SKSE was working perfectly fine, installation is very simple. The game ran fine and I was able to play with no problems for about 3-4 hours. Now all of a sudden I load a game an it says "Skyrim script extender not detected....breaking and entering won't work properly, etc". Apparently the B&E mod has detected that my game doesn't have SKSE and is recommending I install it. So SKSE isn't loading now.

 

The weird thing is my launcher is SKSE_Launcher, same as before, and the game starts as it normally did before. I reinstalled SKSE just in case but it still say "not detected". Typing GetSKSEVersion in the console yields -"invalid command" (paraphrasing).

 

The only thing I have done is re-install my old Morrowind game and Morrowind overhaul 3.0...If anyone could offer a suggestion as to why this would be happening it would be much appreciated. Seriously, why in hell would SKSE just stop working, NOTHING has changed. I did re-scan for installed games in NMM when Morrowind was installed but how could that have anything to do with this? I can't find any similar cases with a google search.

 

Again thanks in advance for any advice. I did already try to reinstall SKSE - I also turned UAC off when installing Morrowind Overhaul ... I doubt that has anything to do with it but who knows.

I did try reinstalling - thanks though...should have mentioned that that was the first thing I did. I actually had not reset my computer since the Morrowind Overhaul installation, apparently something that gets run in overhaul installation program will disrupt SKSE from running if you don't restart. I had put the computer to sleep for several hours but never reset. So if you run into the same problem (anyone), a good ol' fashioned restart will set you right.

 

As for the comparison between Morrowind Overhauled 3.0 and Skyrim, the building and vegetation textures/models hold up decently (I'm running Skyrim HD texture packs), but the NPC/Faces are worlds apart...still love both of them though!

Looks like patch/version issue. The first thing is to grant SKSE is indeed working, open the console by the tilde key (the key above the TAB key) and type

 

GetSKSEVersion

 

that should print it's current version at the console.

 

If it is not there use the first information to start the troubleshooting.

 

Edit: Notice that each part must be in the correct version toward the other, is expected your game is at the last patch version, SKSE must be the correct version for that patch and finally SKSE plugins should be updated to that SKSE version.
