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

    You need a tool to edit mod load order you can easily manually mod but once you get a list the needs ordering. a sorting tool will save you a huge headache and MO2 and vortex do work on linux there’s many guides on how to set it up. But yeah its not easy to mod on linux still. Check out steam tinker launch it will set up MO2 or vortex for you read the instructions though

      Does there exist a file on the filesystem that stores the load orders? Where is the thing that replaced Plugin.txt? (since it doesn’t work anymore)

      When manually installing mods, what do I have to do besides putting all the respective files and folders in the correct locations? I think that’s the million dollar question here.
