how to launch nvse from steam

[Kombat]

Hi, I like to launch games from my Steam Library. I've installed nvse and mods to New Vegas. How do I launch nvse_launcher when I click the Play button and not the default .exe?

Hmm okay. My nvse shortcut works great. Just want to be able to launch all my games from the steam library.

In the nvse readme.txt it says:
'2. Launch NV via running nvse_loader.exe. Enabling the Steam Community option (enabled by default) will allow you to launch the game via Steam's standard UI'

I thought this meant what I want? I probably misunderstood that. To bad.

Thanks

I would use 4gb fallout, which if you use the proper version autolaunches nvse anyways.

You have to be one of the few people that actually launch games from the Steam UI lol.

In your "/steamapps/common/Fallout New Vegas" folder, rename FalloutNVLauncher.exe to something like "FaloutNVLauncher-original" so you'll remember what it is in the future. Then, rename nvse_launcher.exe to FalloutNVLauncher.

This should work because when you launch the game from Steam, it looks for FalloutNVLauncher.exe and runs whatever file has that name. If the NVSE loader has the same name as the New Vegas launcher, Steam should run the NVSE loader. That's what I did for Skyrim, so it should be the same.

All of my friends run games from the Steam UI.

Will this disable achievements?

What do the NVSE page and .readme mean by "the Steam Community option?"
Do they mean Steam Cloud synchronization? I've never once heard of a "Steam Community option" before.

You don't need to do anything except put all the NVSE files included in the archive you downloaded, into the games directory. Just launch the game from Steam after that. You can confirm that this works by doing so, and typing "getnvseversion" in the console at the main menu.
