Bethesda Creation Kit Launching Issues: What You Need to Know Before Getting Started

If you're planning to convert your mods from the old version of Skyrim to the new Skyrim Special Edition (SSE) using the Bethesda Creation Kit, it's crucial that you read this information carefully before duplicating your mod pages on the SSE Nexus site. Here are some essential tips and considerations to keep in mind.

Firstly, make sure that the Creation Kit is installed on the same drive as your Skyrim Special Edition. If not, you won't be able to launch the CK. This may seem like a simple step, but it's easy to overlook, especially if you're new to modding.

Another important consideration is protecting your changes from being erased when updating the Creation Kit. To do this, create a new file called CreationKitCustom.ini in your SSE installation folder and add the following setting under the 'CreationKit.ini' section: bAllowMultipleMasterLoads=1. This will ensure that your customizations are preserved even after updating the CK.

Before moving on to the code, it's worth noting that Pete Hines has shared a Twitter code allowing access to the Creation Kit for Skyrim Special Edition. Additionally, as of 'update', the Creation Kit is now live for all users. Simply restart the Bethesda Launcher and it should appear in your library.

If you're a Skyrim mod author waiting patiently for the Creation Kit for SSE, we have good news: you can now get started with converting your mods to the new version of Skyrim. The Creation Kit provides a powerful toolset for creating and editing mods, allowing you to customize your game experience like never before.

By following these simple tips and considerations, you'll be well on your way to getting started with the Bethesda Creation Kit for Skyrim Special Edition. So why wait? Dive in and start exploring the possibilities of modding today!
