@Tomo «This thing not working,i was download file but there is no exe». U lier )) lol

This thing not working,i was download file but there is no exe file like it say in desc. so fuck this.

Hello o7
Which folder does the SE Launcher download mods to?

I know that this is deprecated, but I still wanted to say thank you for keeping this here as a reminder as to where to find the launcher.

Does this still have to be subbed to along with the extra download and setup?

Cant upload plug in on steam. Due to security issues probably. Due to how plug ins work. But can still get them from the launcher.

Can understand why did it. But still sucks. But at least can still get your plugins.

Can someone tell SE to load Workshop mods from workshop folder when your connection su*ks (Steam in offline)

@DISCO429 There is.

is there a discord for plugin loader?

well this sucks! now i need to do the extra stupid steps

@Kham thanks, I wasn't aware of the discord. Glad to see this is working again :)

@S Boogy Avaness already posted in the Discord to say he should have a fix for the new game update within the hour. Using the launcher it will auto update when available.

This is back to not working after the 1.202.1 update. I sent a ticket to keen hoping they'll help fix the issue. heres a link if you guys want to follow

I launch my Steam games from shortcuts on my start menu that tell Steam to launch specific app IDs... I don't think you can do this with non-steam games added to your Steam Client... Perhaps I should double-check though.
The benefit of launching a game through Steam is Steam UI, especially if the game utilizes Steam UI such as opening workshop links upon uploading something.

@ShArPy1o1 No problem, glad you got it working! It's a much neater way of doing it to preserve normal loading through Steam.

@Kham... Works Perfectly, Thanks heaps as I tried similar but did the end quote at the end instead haha... mind if I show your comments in my YT Tutorial Video?

@ShArPy1o1 You have a space in one of your folder names so you might need to surround the path in quotes.
Like
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Bin64\SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe" %command%

I got mine working with just downloading the "SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe" and putting in in my Bin64, opening game using .exe and installing whatever plugin I want using old method of selecting that option at the Main Screen of SE... Simplest way i've experienced doing it so far... All I need to do is figure how to launch that .exe through steam using the 'launcher options' Automatically

Easy guide on how to get it sorted

Tried multiple times and variations using mine... C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Bin64\SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe %command%
but none worked

@Kham Thanks heaps for this tip as I didnt know it existed... So much easier... Thanks again :)

@ShArPy1o1 Instead of running the game by using the EXE you can also just add this to your Space Engineers launch options in Steam so you can continue to load the game via Steam as normal.

E:\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Bin64\SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe %command%

Obviously changing the path to match where your game is installed.

HOW TO INSTALL NOW..... Go here: https://github.com/sepluginloader/SpaceEngineersLauncher/releases/tag/v1.0.2 ... Download the File called "SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe", put said 'un-Zipped' file into your "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Bin64" or where your game is located etc, (make sure your antivirus isnt blocking it or run in Admin?), Open "SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe" in its location and it will install the Plug-in Loader, from there install your mods! DONE!
Please note that for the Plug-In to load, you must use the downloaded .Exe to open the game

i have no idea why i cant get this to work this BS

I'm currently making Another YouTube Tutorial on How to Install and Use this as I had 1 previously but that video is now broken :(

If Keen really did make that decision, it was an INCREDIBLY stupid one. I hope they know that.

Anybody looking to figure it out i have it all working fine with no problems pm me if needs be

god it is such ass that keen made this more difficult than it needs to be, FFS

@Velik right click the launcher, go to properties, then down bottom in the attributes section if it says "blocked" click to unblock it.

Github launcher gets blocked by Windows smartscreen. I'm too uneducated to even do anything about it so rip Plugin Loader

I didnt read the README

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Bin64\SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe" %command%

that or copy your file path and make sure you have the quotation marks

@only1tiberious thank you

on a side note, how do I set the launch options to launch the new launcher?
is it -run "SpaceEngineersLauncher.exe" or something?

L keen for causing this. Just removed a massive thing a lot of peopled used.

hope someone finds this comment useful, if your game keeps on crashing unexpectedly at start-up and gives a crash log, the plugins are the problem, you will have to clear the game launch options as the creator stated.

soo...
When is it gonna be updated?

i did have a how to for the git hub one on here but its been deleted cause i have it working

me too it tries to access System.io but keeps crashing

tried to get the github one working but doesn't work at all

OK, I found it: In the display settings, Video Mode are three options: 1) Window, 2) Fullscreen Window 3) Fullscreen. I was on Fullscreen Window, changing to Fullscreen fixed it.

maxmad, check what graphics adapter is set in your display settings

im not sure dude, my resolution is still the same and nothing has changed, could possibly mean your drivers need updating or resetting, ive had that issue with other games and driver update has cured it

Ok, so the "How-To" from Genesis_Viper works for me, the plugin menu is there but upon start the game does not have the resolution I normally drive, but much less - can't figure out which one, but it's all quite blocky. Any idea why? Changing resolution in the game settings don't change anything.

No worries buddy, i knew with how i struggled you could guarantee that others might

Thanks. Genesis_Viper it does helps! Hope the issue will be resolve soon.

Never mind I figured it out. Forgot to check the unblock lol.

It's the same with and without the quotes.

Replace the quotation marks

I keep getting "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."
