Unofficial Skyrim Patch Missing?

[generaldurandal]

I have a mod I want to use that needs,
Unofficial Skyrim Patch.esp
but I can't find it anywhere.

I found,
Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/71214
though.

But it's esp is,
Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch.esp
(and it is giving me a warning saying it's actual a master file)

The mods that need,
Unofficial Skyrim Patch,
say I don't have it and are red.

If I change the name of,
Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch,
to,
Unofficial Skyrim Patch,
will that just brake things?

"...will that just brake things?" --Yes.

Unless you own all of Skyrim, Hearthfire, Dawnguard, and Dragonborn, the Legendary Edition patch will not work.

Your options are:
1. Live without the patch (not ideal, but workable), and live without the mods that require the patch.
2. Buy the DLC on Steam (links are in pinned topic "Helpful Links and References, first item in section 1). This is generally viewed as not cost effective.
3. Find a copy of Skyrim Legendary Edition on a reputable third-party website, which will almost certainly be cheaper than Steam. Mod to your heart's content.
4. If your computer will run it, buy Skyrim Special Edition. Its programming has been updated to 64-bit, is still supported, and comes with all the DLC already built in. If price is an issue, it usually is discounted during the Spring and/or Summer Sales. Mod to your heart's content.

Yeah...the Unofficial Skyrim Patch is no longer supported. Even if you could find a copy of it, I don't know how well it would work. Skyrim has been updated several times since its disappearance. I would see if I could live without it first...and then take it from there.

Everyone talks about finding Skyrim Legendary Edition...I wonder if anybody has looked for the Elder Scrolls Anthology both have the same price tag and you get LE, Morrowind and whole lot more with the Anthology.

I have all the DLCs,
so does that mean I can just rename it?

If you have all 3 DLC's you have the correct patch, its esp does say Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch.esp, that is correct.

Hope someone can help you, because I have used it and it works.
Remember seeing if someone has USKP installed that a script was needed to change dependencies.
Also I believe it has been esmified so it might give warnings. Cannot remember.
(Knowing what I am like I most likely ignored the warning, not advisable unless you are sure.)

Hope someone can help you more.

What mod are you trying to use that is dependent on the Unofficial Skyrim Patch? Also, what mod management program are you using?

The Mod is Realistic Needs and Diseases.

Nexus Mod Manager.
I looked for LOOT,
but it doesn't seem to have a classic skyrim version.

Ok, this makes more sense. On the mod page for realistic needs and diseases on the downloads page, try downloading and installing the RND_USKP-Patch under "Update Files" and load it after all the other Realistic Needs .esps.

Alternatively, you could use the RND merged esp 2 and tell NMM to overwrite when prompted, but NMM has known problems with uninstalls if something goes wrong. Installing the RND_USKP-Patch is probably the safer option.

I decided to switch to iNeed because of another mod,
Complete Alchemy and Cooking Overhaul,
which doesn't have RND support.

Thanks for the help though.

The thing that matters most is that you got it working.

As for LOOT, you can get it from the Special Edition nexus page, and it will still work for Oldrim, although as GamerPoets says, it can be easier to install a separate copy for each game, though not required.

Here's the GamerPoets LOOT video, on the LOOT nexus page. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1918?tab=videos#lg=2&slide=0

Hope it helps.

You're welcome. There are other vids on that same page, so if you don't see the GP video for LOOT, just back out to the video page itself.
