Vortex wont let skyrim start?

[dude wahat]

i installed 5 or 6 mods using the vortex modding software and if even one mod is enabled the game does not even attempt loading. no error message, nothing. in my steam library after i press play, for a few seconds the game says "running" and then for a split second turns to "syncing" and then.... nothing. the game just reverts and nothing happens. i know this is caused bu my vortex because when i disable all mods from vortex the game boots up fine. i should also note i have a few mods installed from the mods tab from the in game menu. not that im sure this matters, but my skyrim is special edition. please help.

EDIT: well i used tool to try and open my skyrim. and for the most part, it did it's job. here it get's confusing, so i wouldn't blame you for leaving this behind, BUT... tool essentially told me that one of my mods required SKSE. so i installed SKSE, put it in my vortex and came back to tool for the results. the type of SKSE was "invalid" i used 7zip to put SKSE into my skyrim folder. is it possible that i need to use the steam download or something like that for SKSE?

Run Loot, there is a addon tool within Vortex itself, run it, and check on dependencies on the mods that you have installed, any of that goes wrong and you will CTD.

And why on earth would you use mods from ingame menu, use Nexus hehe.

Yep had the same problem and got Loot. Still cant use the skyu thingy download because of the plug in being buggy but all other mods work thanks to Loot

Make sure you have All Required mods for those mods you have loaded, and make sure you Do Not have versions of the mods for the old skyrim.
90% of the 32-bit skyrim mods will not run on this 64-bit version of the game.

SkyUI works fine. Many I know use it and so do I.

you need this version along with SKSE64, and launch Through SKSE64 Loader exe

Read the mod descriptions for the mods you installed.

Modding is pretty easy, but it does require a lot of reading.

skse is not "buggy". I've been using it for years. The install can be difficult for those who have trouble reading the instructions.

Download the version of skse that matches your game version from silverlock.

Open the archive and follow the instructions in the readme. There are multiple files and a directory to move.

Configure vortex to use skse_loader.dll to launch the game. There should be a tool in sse dashboard for skse but you do have to edit that and browse to the skse_loader.dll in the target field. Exit back and click on the dots for skse and make primary. Launch the game by running skse.

If you don't want to use vortex then launch your game by double clucking skse_loader.dll not the sse executable.

Oh, and you can check after install by typing getskseversion in the console. .
