Racemenu not working? (mods)

[AriahsVibes]

I downloaded and installed SKSE, then installed racemenu with the Vortex mod manager, but when I get into the game all that's changed is two extra tabs at the end - one labeled "$EXTRAS" and one labeled "$EXPRESSIONS" Help please?

EDIT: This was solved for me years ago now, but I realize people find this when trying to make Racemenu work. Check the comment by CannonFodder for what worked for me. I hope you find what you're looking for <3

it works fine (nexusmod + mod organizer)

and in-game:

Sounds like you have a mod overwriting the Interface folder in SKSE. Make sure you meet all the pre-requisites. And move racemenu lower in the load order. If that doesn't help. download a fresh copy of SKSE and BTW... that does not get installed with a manager. You have to expand the files and copy them into the game root directory... This should help.

Yeah, I decompressed it with 7-zip and followed the instruction of the readme with skse, and racemenu is at the bottom of the load order lol. It's just nothing for some reason ;-;

I have the same problem

I think i just solved the problem. If you are using Vortex then go to "Plugins" and enable Racemenu plugins. They didn't enable automatically for me for some reason.

@Mr. Helpless; for Vortex Go to "Settings" and under Automation make sure "Deploy Mods when Enabled" and "Enable Mods when Installed" are both checked. You don't have to do that but the option is there so you won't have to remember. Also, you can check to "Run FNIS on Deployment Event" if you have FNIS installed.

For SKSE64 Vortex can install the entire mod for you. This is something new they recently implemented (back in late June IIRC). So now Vortex will go and grab SKSE64 current version from silverlock for you, then show you which version it grabbed so you can verify it. Then it will install all the files so there is no need to break down the file anymore. Vortex will also inform you when a new version of SKSE64 comes out.

Gopher has a great video on installing the Script Extender for all Bethesda games that use Script Extended.

Here's the Script Extender Video

@Vlad 254 Thanks for this useful info about settings in Vortex. If it comes to SKSE, I installed it manually.

Manual is 100% fine but I did not actually let Vortex handle it for me until 2 weeks ago when I started a new Load order because it just felt strange and I'm a bit of a creature of habit. But I finally caved and it completed the task 100% on it's own.

As for the info you are most welcome. I will suggest you watch all of Gopher's Videos he put together for Vortex. They are extremely well done, highly informative and easy to follow. Highly Recommended.

this is what fixed it for me, stupid vortex. THANK U!

[Vexed Rats]

I'm having the same problem now with only have the "Extras" and "Expressions" everything is enabled for me, also some other mods arent working properly either

[Aioch]

This is going to sound stupid. But hear me out. If you're using vortex, click plugins and make sure racemenu is enabled there to. If it's a manual install. Do the same but inside the game via the mods menu.
For what ever reason the game / vortex like to install this disabled.

This was the issue for me back when I posted this, I hope it helps other people who wind up here. Thanks!
