Updated SFSE available on NEXUS

Those guys at Silverlock are quick! :)

Public Service Announcement for those new to Bethesda and mods:

Most mods do NOT need to be updated when the game gets a fix. The exception are binary executable mods. Due to how they work, ANY change to the base game files will cause them to stop working. This is normal. This is expected. This is NOT Todd's fault. This is not Bethesda's fault. This is not Microsoft's fault. This is just the way that these mods work.

SFSE, and indeed ANY script extender, falls into this category. So if you use SFSE your game WILL break when it is updated. This is expected. What you need to do is to turn OFF automatic game updates. I know this is difficult because Steam will keep turning it back on behind your back. But do try. Then when SFSE itself gets updated, then and only then update the game.

Do not worry, the script extender team is very quick and on top of things. Some of the best modders around. But they are not instantaneous, nor do they force push updates on you. So if you use SFSE then you need to be proactive and keep track of stuff.

That is all.

p.s. We learned all this in Skyrim. Then forgot and had to learn it all over again in Fallout 4. Once again we have a new crowd of people unfamiliar with modding Bethesda games. I hope this helps.

Mods that use https://www.nexusmods.com/starfield/mods/3256 no longer need to be recompiled with every SFSE version.
Again and again, everything gets a little fluffier. At least there are still brains :)
Oh, one more note on the side:
If you use SFSE and your game crashes despite updates (all successful), then start it without SFSE so that the shaders can be rebuilt. Then you can start again with SFSE.

The new version appears not be not working. I get a CDT on startup or on attempting to load a saved game. Looks like something needs more work.

Attempting to start in SFSE after starting and running without. Maybe I'll try reinstalling.

In general? no. But just old version has compatibility problem with new game version. And fixed by new mod version.
