i had played skyrim on my steamdeck an year ago… and put mo2 on, added some mods, played a bit and moved on to other stuff. now, i would like to start a serious playthrought, but mmh i can’t for the life of me get mod organizer 2 to open. if i try to open Skyrim script Extender, it says that i don’t have a licence for the game (wich is sort of true as i have the special edition -upgraded to anniversary, i think?-)

either way, i remember than mod organiser 2 used to open on its own whenever i would launch a game, but only with a specific proton. i cycled throught all of them, and with some there’s like a pop up showing on screen for few seconds, but then the game start normally… with other protons, the game just straight launches.

i don’t know what do to…

i’m considering uninstalling, wiping EVERYTHING skyrim related and re-do the whole process from scratch. any advice on what i could do to get mo2 to open and let me mod it again, like i used to?

    your suggestion would then be to switch to (the more reliable) vortex?

    mmh, i definitly can try.

    as far as mo2 i can just delete the folder or is there an uninstallation process of some sort?

      It pains me, but yes. For any other device MO2 is still the king, but Vortex just runs better on this platform.

      Uninstalling MO2 might depend on how you installed it. I followed the walkthrough by rockerbacon, which I think was a simple “delete the folder” uninstall. But it’s been a few months so I could be misremembering.

        lol i must have been damned, somwbody did me a hoax or something… so i followed a guide 100% throught and installed vortex on my sd. tried to download a few mods and the game recognises them qs in the mod menu, while in game, i can see the .esp for each mode i have installed and they can be activated/deactivated, but they just don’t work in game 😅
