Starting over - nuked my Anniversary Edition install - questions re: 1.5.97

[chajapa]

Nuked previous anniversary edition install.

Cleared the directory and reinstalled fresh.

First thing I did was downgrade to 1.5.97

Not going to reinstall Creation Kit until I have SE running again properly.

 

SKSE seems pretty straightforward. I need the 2.0.20 version for SE 1.5.97

 

SKYUI is a bit puzzling. 5.2SE or 5.1SE? 

Version 5.1SE - Requires SKSE64 2.0.2 alpha or newer and and Skyrim 1.4.2.  I have SKSE 2.0.20 but my SE version is 1.5.97

Version 5.2SE - Requires SKSE64 2.0.4 alpha or newer and and Skyrim 1.5.3. I have a higher SE version but I don't see anything about SKSE 2.0.4 alpha anywhere.

Which one should I be installing?

 

Racemenu has the anniversary edition version as its main download. Is the 0-4-9 version the one I want for SE 1.5.97?

 

My plan is:

SKSE

Back up Update.esm, Dawnguard.esm, Hearthfires.esm and Dragonborn.esm, then QuickAutoclean with SSEdit

Then SkyUI

SkyUI Flashing save game fix

UIExtensions

PapyrusUtils

Jcontainers

Address Library for SKSE

Engine Fixes

RaceMenu

FNIS

 

Sound about right? 

If I could get some clarification on SkyUI and Racemenu, I'd appreciate it. I don't want to go through this again if I can help it

Thank you 

 

And Racemenu? 1.4.9 the one I want?

Thanks. Didn't even notice they were not in chronological order.

I am finding that while Engine Fixes works fine, Bug Fixes does not. It complains about an incorrect SKSE library file when I know I have the correct SKSE and Library. Apparently Bug Fixes is compiled for a very specific executable and my 1.5.97 apparently ain't it.

Did you make sure you've installed Address Library for SKSE Plugins as well?

yes.  The all in one for 1.5.x

There were other people saying that Bug Fixes was causing issues.

Haven't experienced any myself. But I also never bothered to update to any newer version since v2.

There are two files for Bug Fixes, verify you're using the correct one. I have no problem using the Special Edition file on my 1.5.97 game / 2.0.20 SKSE.

yes, I'm being careful to look for 1.5.97 versions. I may activate it again just to see the exact error message, but it said I didn't have the correct libraried. It seemed to be looking for versionlib-1-5-97-0, but the file names for the libraries for 1.5.97 are version-1-5-97-0, not versionLIB. I checked the AE libraries and those use versionlib file names.

I have the correct SKSE version as confirmed by going to console and using getskseversion. Checked my library file and the version-1-5-97-0 library is in there. 
I'll check again when I get home.

Well... for whatever reason, Bug Fixes started working with no errors. I didn't change anything. Continuing on...
