I need help

[Artrys78]

I wanna try to mod for my first time and I looked and watched how to. I don’t really have help, and I need someone more experienced than me. And when I download se lab framework and SKUI it I get  get these

Well, are you launching skyrim directly Or using something like mo2? If your using mo2 remember to switch the launch from skyrim to skse. 

((I had similar issues until i realized i accidentally switched it from skse to skyrim))

I don’t have mo2 idk where the link is in order to download it. I did it with the Skyrim.Se or Skyrim.Se launcher and it gave me this

I strongly suggest you don't install anything but the base vanilla game (not even skse). Then secondly I suggest you install a mod manager.

Maybe use Vortex https://www.nexusmods.com/about/vortex/.

 

I myself as a veteran modder still use this for it's simplicity (never used wabbajack it looks complicated).

 

For you first mod you install USSEP (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/266).

 

After that you can bypass any starting issue with the Alternate start (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/272). This mod saved me soo much time testing mods. From that point you should be able to continue modding.

 

With installing skse maybe read this tread: https://www.loverslab.com/topic/216650-after-a-break-from-skyrim-problems-to-start-a-new-game/#comment-4161636

 

Do not atempt any kind of modding without mod manager, like EVER!

Which is the base vanilla game? Cause rn I have Skyrim Se. And I downloaded Vortex

[PandaIGuess]

Skyrim SE, or Skyrim AE? If you didn't backport your game you're modding AE, even if you don't have the additional dlc content. If you're downloading mods that specifically say they're for one of the SE versions, they aren't going to work on any of the AE versions of Skyrim.
Make sure you're also launching the game via SKSE, if you don't any mods that require it won't work. Not entirely sure how you do that with Vortex, but there's probably just an SKSE button somewhere lol

Do not try to install mods until you at least run the vanilla game first to make sure that works.

This is the one I have on steam
