(I'm not saying the current skyrim script extender is one, I'm just saying their layers would strongly advise against it.)

The mods themselves are limited to what the game exe itself can do, in other words, Beth can be safe knowing that no one can make a mod file that does anything besides corrupt skyrim's world data or saved data. Once you toss a code injector into the mix, things get pretty hairy from a legal standpoint. In a lot of places, they would be responsible for willingly coding such a security flaw into their game if it supported it out of the box.

The reason they are ok with us using the extender in the first place is because it so far hasn't done anything bad. They may support what we do inside their own offices, but if asked to make a legal statement about it, they have to stay silent and pretend they don't see the script extenders.

Ta for that, yea makes sense and very well written. BW

Would somebody be willing to upload one of the modded .exe's, just like the old one, but for the new Skyrim patch and SKSE? I just don't trust myself with that. :/ And I bet some of you have already done it.

Edit: With the new SKSE installed, and the newest patch, it still says my game version isnt supported. Is this an error on the SKSE-teams end?

Here it is:

I was having some problems when I changed to TESV_.exe in the file so I kept the same number of elements in the string. So, just change TESV.exe to ESV2.exe in the Skyrim directory.

Thank you so much!

Hi, is there a new modified skse exe file yet for skse 1_04_14 (skyrim 1.5)? If so could someone please post a download link.

I, too, would like a modified .EXE file. Perhaps someone should make a sourceforge page for this.

This is how to launch SKSE with the default launcher.

1. Just get a hex editor (XVI32 http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm#download is freeware one) and open skse_loader.exe with it.
2. Search for TESV.exe and change it to ESV2.exe
3. (Make sure you're not "inserting" any bytes, just overwrite empty(00) areas or skse may break)
4. After that rename skse_loader.exe to TESV.exe
5. Rename the original TESV.exe to ESV2.exe
6. Copy Modded SKSE loader and other SKSE files into your Skyrim Data Directory.

This works with latest SKSE loader. Thanks kdh7807 & Siegfried22 !

Awesome!! Worked great, thanx for the info! For those who have never used a hex editor, open the hex editor program, then at the top click file, open, search for the skse loader and open it. Then at top click the search button and type in TESV.exe, make sure the search is set to text string. It should take you to it and highlight it. Now Put you curser in front of the first letter which would be T like so |TESV.exe and type ESV2 and it will just type over the TESV close and save hex and follow the rest of the instructions in the post above. NOTE: DO NOT put your curser after the TESV.exe in hex editor and try to use backspace to delete it, it doesnt work that way. Another good hex editor to use is HxD I found this the easiest one to use.

Quick question...I have the current SKSE build successfully installed for Skyrim version 1.6.89.0. Since the 1.7 patch came out this obviously does not work anymore...Therefore I downloaded the beta build (http://skse.silverlock.org/beta/skse_1_05_10.7) that is supposedly compatible with Skyrim 1.7.7.0.

This Beta build is only One .dll plugin file (Plugin.The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim.dll). Where the heck do I put this file? Under the main Skyrim folder? Or possibly under the SKSE Plugin folder? I've tried both and it says my version of Skyrim is newer than my SKSE build...What the dilly?
