FAQ

Q: Do I have to read this?

A: No, but if you ask a question that is in this document, you will likely be referred here.

Q: Why does my character look broken and glitchy?

A: You unlocked MO2 when launching the game. When you get the pop-up after launching, do not unlock. This will unload files, causing strange issues.

Q: My game crashes as soon as I try to launch it.

A: Reinstall the list to verify any missing/broken files. If you still have issues, go back and make sure you have all prerequisits (.NET, etc.). Install them even if you think you have them. Make sure you have disabled OneDrive.

Q: Why is my game window super zoomed-in?

A: Go to your Game Root folder, right-click SkyrimSE.exe, go to Properties, and follow the steps outlined here.

Q: Why is my map purple/missing?

A: You have a plugin loading below the paper map plugin. Either reinstall the list to restore the load order, or refer to the modification guide if you've added mods.

Q: How do I change my FOV?

A: first use the FOV console command like normal (fov x x) (yes, input the value twice).

Q: How do I change my brightness?

A: In the ENB menu, go to the ENVIRONMENT category, and edit settings such as AmbientLightingIntensityDay and AmbientLightingIntensityNight. You can also find settings for interiors, if interiors are too dark. If you break something, you can press LOAD CONFIGURATION at the top to restore your previous configuration, or reinstall the list to reset everything to default.

Q: I've modified INI settings (e.g. as dodge hotkey), why are they not applying?

A: Check the NS - Game Settings mod. Modify the INI files there.

Q: How do I get rid of those obnoxious category icons at the top of the inventory menu?

A: Enter the SkyUI MCM, go to General, change Category Icon Theme to SkyUI V5.

Q: Where did my compass go?

A: Press X to toggle your compass.

Q: How come I can't access this chest/steal this item?

A: You must be sneaking to steal items. You can configure this in the Better Third Person Selection MCM.

Q: Why is the QuickLoot menu not showing up?

A: If a container has a large amount of items, the QuickLoot menu will no longer appear, in order to prevent crashing.

Q: Why are dragons/other large creatures invisible?

A: If this bothers you, go to SSEDisplayTweaks.ini, find DisableActorFade=false and set it to true.

Q: Why does this quest not start?

A: There are likely different starting requirements. Please refer to this document.

Q: Why are no dragons spawning?

A: This is due to the Diplomatic Dragons mod. Random dragons will not spawn until Sahloknir dies.

Q: Why am I missing health/regeneration? How do I get rid of injuries/infenctions?

A: Sleep for 4 hours to cure minor injuries, 8 for major, and 12 to cure critical/all injuries. Infections act as diseases, so use a cure disease potion.
