Seriously. I don’t know that it can be done on Linux. There was a user on protondb that claimed the game works “even with lots of mods” but there’s no way to message people on there and ask them how the fuck they got something to work.

Every single mod requires “Unnoffical Skyrim Special Edition Patch” just about. That mod has esps in it. Esp mods cannot be installed without LOOT which can’t run on Linux. Even if I add my mod load order in plugins.txt and write protect it, the game still somehow erases it and refused to load any mods.

Has anyone here got Skyrim special edition mods working on Linux? How did you hack the mod loading and the load order to work without LOOT?

WHY THE FUCK DO THEY HAVE TO MAKE THINGS MORE COMPLICATED THAN DRAGGING AND DROPPING SOME FUCKING FILES

    I’m sorry but not using a mod manager is just stupid and asking for all sorts of trouble. It’s downright impossible to manually keep track of all the mods you install in case of updates or potential removals.

    I use this version of MO2 in Starfield just fine, just had to use the pipx version of Protontricks since the one from the Fedora repos & the Flatpak version were both borked and caused an error during installation.
