game wont launch on steam and vortex?

[zephoraleon]

im new to the modding scene. as i just started 18 hrs ago. i was playing just fine and then decided to watch some youutbe. when i came back to play i tried to launch the game via vortex and.. nothing? so i was curious and checked steam and when i click play it will try to launch (greyed out play button) then just stop to the point where it gives me the option to launch again. did i do something wrong and mess my whole skyrim game up or is this due to the update?

Todd Howard decided to break your modded game by putting out a 500mb patch that does nothing. You need to download the latest skse and address library. They are up on nexus already I think.

And in future, make sure you set updates on steam to only update when you launch the game. Then never ever launch the game via steam, only through skse.exe.

I didn't think this would stop the game from launching in steam but thank you for your help I shall do this

That did not fix the issue. Still cannot launch from steam or vortex

Then you have another mod that uses dll which requires updating. The only sure way to find out which, is disable one at a time.

As you use Vortex, right click on the mod's name and open the nexus page link. If it has a dependency on SKSE, then disable it. If the game still doesn't launch on to the next one.

Note; You won't be able to continue an old save with this method.

When you install mods via Vortex it places the files in your game folder which Steam uses (unless you are installing mods to a backed up copy of the game).

Also Vortex will not automatically launch the game via SKSE instead. You have to assign the command line yourself(unless that has changed recently).

When you launch from steam it will still load up your game based on your load order, so if you have mods that are broke, it will still cause your game to crash to desktop.

Around the 2 minute 30 mark for Vortex users.

The game is not saved and crashes. When saving it says - Saving error. Before this update everything worked fine
