Crashing on Launch

[Magetorment]

Getting back into Skyrim and decided to go with the SE. Been slowly figuring out how to get back into things. Got all the visual mods working, but then the sex animations didn't start. Realized I fucked up and never ran FNIS. Did that and then everyone was A-posing with no animations. Realized I fucked up again and wasn't redirecting (using Vortex). Beat my head against that brick wall for a bit. Now the game crashes on load. I can launch it via Steam, but then I get swamped with error messages saying stuff isn't installed/running. If I run it through Vortex or skse64_loader.exe it just crashes instantly.

 

Here's my load order. Where am I being smooth brained on this?

Did you try occam's razor (using steams diagnostic function to download missing files.)

This is the reason i had for this kind of crash  after setting my game up.

Tried that, said all the files are there.

 

Did figure it out though. Apparently Simply Knock got fucked in a recent patch and needs a patch of its own, otherwise it crashes on launch. In the 5 years since I touched Skyrim I kinda forgot how jank the modding process was.

Simply knock hasn't been updated since 2018. As it contains a dll, using that 2018 version won't work with the current SKSE which is what you're probably using. Using the updated dll is enough to fix it.

 

Incompatible or outdated dll files should be detected after the first crash by most mod managers. So remember to keep an eye for any errors, warnings or similar messages that may point you in the right direction to fix the issue at hand.
