LOOT

LOOT (Load Order Optimization Tool) is designed to assist users in creating a working and stable load order, based on author and community provided "meta" rules, with minimal effort on the user's part. For this program to work correctly, a number of custom "user" meta rules need to be added. These have been noted throughout the guide when you were installing mods, though you may not have entered these customs rules at the time. Once you have entered these rules, they will remain persistent unless you clear all user metadata in LOOT or delete the local custom metadata file.

Idiot Check:

  • Ensure the following LOOT User Metadata Rules are entered, ensuring they are also assigned to the group indicated:

Instructions:

Perform the following steps on initial setup of your load order and any time an ESP/ESL/ESM file (other than those created on this page) are changed:

  • Start Mod Organizer 2.
  • Select LOOT in the executable selection box and click [Run].
  • Find the icon that looks like a horizontal bar graph (mouse over text should state "Sort Plugins") and click it.
  • After some processing, the calculated load order will be displayed in the right pane of LOOT. Click the [Apply] button.
  • Click the [X] on the title bar to close LOOT.

All mods currently installed will now be ordered based upon the master list downloaded by the tool and the user metadata that was created while installing mods in this guide. However, they may not be in the order the plugins themselves are expecting. Note that this will not affect the ability of the game to run the files, but can be fixed by:

  • Opening SSEEdit in Mod Organizer 2 and click [OK] (make sure you are not loading your QuickAutoClean profile of SSEEdit).
  • After the load is complete, select all files.
  • Right-Click, and in the menu that appears, select "Sort Masters".
  • After SSEEdit has completed working, click the [X] in the upper right-hand corner
  • A pop-up window will list all files that were altered. Uncheck "Backup plugins", and click [OK] to save the new versions. If no pop-up appears, no files needed alteration.

FNIS - Fores New Idles in Skyrim

FNIS (Fores New Idles in Skyrim) was created to allow for new skeletons (not the creatures, the 'bones' of a in-game character) and animations that the default Skyrim engine could not support. This includes new animations, gender-specific animations, poses, and so forth. This involves the use of an external patcher, "GenerateFNIS_for_Users.exe", which will analyze your load order and selected options to create specialized .HKX files to match your current skeleton and animation configuration.

Instructions:

Prior to initial run:

1. In Windows Explorer - navigate to your Mod Organizer 2/Mods folder.
2. Create a new folder to act as a mod for the new FNIS files. We recommend "FNIS Output".
3. Launch Mod Organizer 2. Ensure FNIS Output (or the name you chose instead) is checked and the mod activated. NOTE: Since the mod is empty at the moment, you will see an X on a grey background in the same line - this is normal, and will be resolved shortly.
4. In the top toolbar, select the Executables Option.
5. In the Executables window, locate FNIS. This should have been created when you installed this tool during the Mod Page. If it does not, create it now.
6. In the "Create Files in Mod instead of Overwrite" dialog box, select "FNIS Output" (or equivalent) from the drop down menu.
7. Click "Apply".
8. Exit the Executables window.

Perform the following on initial setup and any time animations are added, removed, or updated in your load order:

1. Select FNIS in the executable selection box, and click [Run].
2. The FNIS main interface should appear. If it does not, review the installation section for FNIS on the Mod Page.
3. In the "Available Patches" section at the bottom of the window, Select the following: GENDER Specific Animations, SKELETON Arm Fix, and tktk1's TK Dodge/Ultimate Combat.
4. Click the [Update FNIS Behavior] button.  Wait for a message to appear in the window stating "X animations for Y mods successfully included.". Note that the window may lose focus and appear to flicker while it is running - this is normal.
5. Click [Exit]. 
6. Verify that Mod Organizer 2 has automatically placed the generated files into the FNIS Output folder in Mod Organizer. If the red X mentioned earlier is still present, refresh the list (through the right click menu).
7. Activate the mod (if not already active).

For reference, the FNIS Output folder should contain the following:

  • a meshes folder, containing new hkx behavior files.
  • a scripts folder, containing 3 compiled scripts for version tracking.
  • a tools folder, containing logs.

A Quick Test

Before finalizing the load order and generating the last few patches we need, it's time to make sure the installation is working as intended. There are three main causes of CTD (Crash to Desktop) at this point in the guide - this test will help you identify both of these.

Instructions:

Perform the following:

  • Launch the game via SKSE in MO2.
  • If the game crashes before the main menu, see the Main Menu section below.
  • From the main menu, open the console (the ~ key on most setups).
  • Type EACH of the commands below, in sequence. In each case, you will be moved to a specific area of Skyrim. If the game CTDs at this point, make a note of which statue is associated with that area, then see Statues below.
1. coc ShrineOfAzuraExterior01 (Azura Statue)
2. coc FallowstoneCaveEnd (Malacath Statue)
3. coc Mehrunes01 (Mehrunes Dagon Statue)
4. coc MarkarthTempleofDibella (Dibella Statue)
5. coc KilkreathRuinsExterior03 (Meridia Statue)
6. coc MarkarthShrineofTalos (Talos Statue)
7. coc WinterholdCollegeExterior (Mage Statue)

Main Menu CTD

If you crashed at the main menu on load, two main possibilities exist.

  • You have a missing master. Check your Load Order in MO2, looking for a red triangle next to any file in the list. If these appear, identify the missing master and activate it.
  • You have not extracted a BSA archive associated with a Skyrim:LE file that you converted earlier. Go through the Mod Page to identify these mods, and verify that you have extracted the BSA files associated with them, if they exist.

Statue CTD

This CTD is caused by an incorrect renaming or file structure for "Stunning Statues of Skyrim" (SSoS). Review the instructions for this mod on the Mod Page, and verify that all file and path renaming/creation has been done correctly, then reattempt the test.

Wrye Bash

WARNING

Before proceeding, read the following important items:

  • DO NOT run LOOT on your load order after this point. All new plugins created will be added to the end of the Load Order IN THE ORDER THEY ARE GENERATED.
  • If you are updating your guide install, DISABLE ALL FINISHING LINE MODS (all mods created from this point forward) prior to updating. Run LOOT again once the updates have been entered, then continue with the Finishing Line (as indicated in the Changelogs).
  • SSE_Terrain_Tamriel.ESM should be disabled in the LEFT PANE at this point. If it is not, deactivate it at this time. DO NOT have this ESM file on unless specifically directed to do so.

Idiot Check: Similar to the LOOT rules previously posted, Bash Tags have been noted during the entirety of the Mod Page. Although LOOT provides for the ability to set Bash Tags, user feedback has shown that Wrye Bash does not always recognize tags set in LOOT. Therefore, it is our recommendation that Bash Tags ONLY be set in Wrye Bash itself. Bash Tags can be set by:

1. Select the mod needing the Bash Tag in Wrye Bash.
2. Locate and right-click inside the lower left window in Wrye Bash. It may already have some tags listed, or may be empty.
3. Select the Tag to be added. Repeat for all required Tags.

Make sure the following Bash Tags have been set before creating the Bash Patch:

Wrye Bash was originally designed to install and manage mods in the days of TESIV: Oblivion. While we are not using it for this functionality, it has a wide array of tools and features that we will be making use of - specifically, the Bashed Patch, which allows for the merging of leveled lists and the changing of core game settings.

Creating (or recreating) a Bashed Patch should be done on initial setup and any time you add or remove a mod that uses an ESM/ESP/ESL. Creating the Patch is performed by the following steps:

1. In your Mod Organizer 2 install folder, locate and open the Mods folder.
2. Create a new folder called "Bash Patch".
3. In Mod Organizer 2, press the Executables button and select Wrye Bash.
4. In the 'Create Files in Mod instead of Overwrite' drop down menu, select "Bash Patch".
5. Select "Apply". Close the window.
6. Select Wrye Bash in the Executables drop down menu, then select [Run].
7. After a moment, the Wrye Bash main interface should appear. Scroll to the bottom of the list and locate "Bashed Patch, 0.ESP".
8. Right click on this mod and select "Rebuild Patch". NOTE: This will always appear in this way, even if it is the first time you are building the patch.
9. In the options list that appears, ensure that ONLY the following have checkmarks:
* Import Graphics
* Import Inventory
* Import Keywords
* Import Names
* Import Stats
* Import Text
* Tweak Settings
* Leveled Lists
10. Click on "Tweak Settings" in the left pane. The following settings are recommended, but can be set otherwise if you so choose. Right-Click on each setting listed to set the value indicated - if the value does not appear, enter it manually via the "Custom" setting:
* AI: Max Actors => 50.
* Arrow: Speed => 1.4.
* Combat: Max Actors => 30.
* Crime: Alarm Distance => 1200.
* Timescale => 15.
11. Ensure that there are checkmarks next to the following settings:
* AI: Max Actors
* Arrow: Speed
* Combat: Projectile Dodge Fix
* Combat: Max Actors
* Crime: Alarm Distance
* Timescale
12. At the bottom of the interface, click [Build Patch]. This process generally takes about 3 - 5 minutes.
13. Exit Wrye Bash by clicking the X in the upper right of the screen.

Bashed Patch, 0.ESP should have been automatically added to the Bash Patch Mod. If it does not appear there, Refresh MO2 and/or check in your MO2 Overwrite folder.

Mators SMASH

Idiot Check:

  • Ensure "SSE-Terrain-Tamriel.ESM" is deactivated before running SMASH.

Prior to running Mator Smash for the first time:

1. Navigate to your Mod Organizer 2/Mods folder in Windows Explorer.
2. Create a folder called "SMASH Patch".
3. Launch Mod Organizer 2.
4. Verify that the "SMASH Patch" mod is checked.
5. Launch the Executables dialog. 
6. Locate and select Mator SMASH.
7. Locate "Create Files in Mod instead of Overwrite". In the drop down menu select "SMASH Patch".
8. Click Apply.

Perform the following for initial Smash Patch Generation, and again when updating the guide (when indicated in the Changelog):

1. Select Mator's SMASH in the executable selection box and click [Run]. The SMASH main interface should appear.
2. Select 'Skyrim SE' and click [OK]. 
3. In the popup window, select [OK].
4. Highlight everything from Update.esm down to Bashed Patch, 0.esp (this includes both of those mods as well).
5. Right click and select "Add to Patch".
6. In the popup window, call both fields Smash Patch. Ensure that the field for the file name contains the .ESP extension.
7. Repeat Step 4.
8. Right click => Smash Settings => Smash => "Smash.all"
9.Using the same process as step 8 above, locate the following files and set their Smash setting to "Smash.ForceAll":
NOTE: These files are located at or near the bottom of the list:
* RealisticWaterTwo.esp
* LOTD Patches Merged.esp
* MLU Patches Merged.esp
* Animals Merged.esp
* OMEGA CACO Patches Merged.esp
* NPC Retexture Merge SSE.esp
* ELE Merged.esp
* Lexy's LOTD Consistency Patches Merged.esp
* Lexy's LoTD SE OMEGA - Conflict Resolution.esp
* OMEGA NPC Retexture - Conflict Resolution.esp
* Bashed Patch, 0.esp
NOTE: These files are located between roughly halfway and 3/4 of the way down the list:
* MLU.esp
* PrvtI_HeavyArmory.esp
* Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim.esp
* CLARALUX SSE.esp
* CLARALUX Patches Merged.esp
10. Click the Hammer Icon at the top of the screen to build the Smash Patch.
11. Once the build is completed, exit Smash and verify the mod is active in the left pane and appears at the bottom of the right. If it does not, Refresh MO2 and recheck.
