An example of why pirated games are not supported by STEP.

Question

The original title set by this user was: "Mod Organizer 2 Textures not working" however as I've pinned this as an example of why cracked games are not a viable alternative for gamers, aside from the legal/moral issue, I'll edit this first post for posterity's sake.

 

This whole thread was conducted to provide verifiable proof of why cracked games are not just the game minus any DRM support. They can contain bad code that may play badly with all manner of things inside your game and, as shown here, mess with how other tools work with the game assets.

 

This user, in the end, relented and purchased the game legally, for which they should be commended. It is all too easy to fall into a laissez faire attitude and not make changes.

Anyone that reads this and thinks piracy is okay needs to re-evaluate that stance on a number of levels.

 

 

So let's get the questions you will ask out of the way (most of them i hope) 

 

1.) Mod organizer 2 is installed outside of game directory 

2.) I am using LATEST MO2 (2.1.1) 

3.) I ONLY have skyrim SE installed

4.) I ONLY have MO2 insalled and not original mod organizer 

5.) It happens when I enable .esp and even if I disable the .esp it will not work. I have to delete that MO2's profile and use default MO2 files to get it to work again

6.) YES I am running SKSE through MO2 

 

 

The texutres not working are nobel skyrim+ vivid All in one. 

Here are a few images

EDIT 

 

It seems like I am not the only person with Textures issue however that guy had a LARGEEE amount of mods. Also something iforgot to add, the textures don't show any  red color conflicts if .esp are not enabled. (in the left DATA tab)

When you get everything installed the easiest way to check is to go to Whiterun. The small market has examples of the modded foods on the counters and the doors to the stores are modified by Noble so you can see at a glance if both mods are working. That way no console commands are needed, not that that will cause issues.

Glad you got it working. Already noted down this case as a great example of why crack'd versions are bad. Thank you very much for your assistance.

I think it was just a bad crack at this point, I could have just tried a different cracked version, but since you were willing to help me against the guidelines I wanted to buy it. So basically your help made me buy it.
