Maximum Destruction not working

[Landrick93]

For whatever reason, nothing activates the gore this mod should add to the game, not any death blows, or strong attacks, or finishing kills.

Double check your requirements, make sure they match your game version.

Some spells won't trigger maximum Destruction if they don't have the right keywords. So, say a spell from Spectraverse won't trigger the gore as an example.

Oh, I meant Maximum Carnage wasn't working, but still, the gore isn't present. I installed the 7.7 version, and have the required mods.

Still double check the requirements. This is the most common cause of Meximum Carnage not working, it's requirement MUST match your version of Skyrim or it won't work.

If that's not working are you using MCO without the Maximum Carnage patch?

Or are you mix and matching Maximum Carnage's newest version with stuff like the subsidiary mod that makes gore happen on every attack, which only works with an older version?

I installed that, and the attack animations are different, but the gore still doesn't show up with heavy killing blows or finishers.

You have to use the Maximum Carnage patch for MCO, it's included in the Maximum Carnage installer. Make sure you have the newest Maximum Carnage version installed from Nexus as that's the one with the patch you need!

It still didn't work, neither does Maximum Destruction.

You're definitely doing something wrong then, it works. Re-download the dependencies, make sure they're for the correct version of your Skyrim, Maximum Carnage is version agnostic but it's dependencies are not.

Then go in-game and use a kill move or power attack on an enemy. Preferably a human one.

If that works then you know your dependencies are correct and you can test out maximum destruction on human npcs. Fire magic is best for this. Use vanilla spells. Not all mods will be supported, they will need the proper keywords.

I... I don't understand... Vortex says that I did everything right. What went wrong?

Don't rely on Vortex to tell you if it's correct or not. You need to manually check the prerequisites to make sure they're the correct version for your Skyrim. I've made this exact mistake before, it's literally a problem with prerequisites or you're using a modded spell that doesn't have the correct keyword to trigger.

If you're 1000% sure that you're using the right prerequisites by triple checking and re-installing the prerequisites then you may be having issues due to extreme script lag (unlikely but possible) or the newest version could be bugged (also unlikely but possible, works for me on 1.5.97).
