Fallout 4 GOTY Edition from GOG not loading F4SE scripts nor .pex files

[racofer]

The problem:

Mods that rely on F4SE are failing to load with the new GOG edition of Fallout 4. As reported on the Discord channel by multiple users, MO2 is not working properly with this new FO4 release since it's not injecting F4SE dlls and .pex files.

When manually copying the same mod files directly into FO4 install directory, everything works.

Environment:

• Mod Organizer Version that exhibits the issue: 2.4.4
• Game version: Fallout 4 GOTY Edition GOG 1.10.163.0

Having the same issue here!

And this is using F4SE version 0.6.23? Updates to the game exe almost always require updates to F4SE itself.

It would seem a workaround is required for this. Add -forcesteamloader to the launch arguments for F4SE for the time being.

You're a lifesaver

How do I do this?

Depends on mod organizer you use.

Could somebody please explain how i am supposed to add this line if i'm running Fallout 4 GOG through MO2?

Creating a FOSE shortcut and adding -forcesteamloader starts the game without MO2 and disables all my mods so i'm obviously doing it wrong.

You need to modify the executable definition in MO2, see https://github.com/ModOrganizer2/modorganizer/wiki/Executables-window

Hey, thanks for helping me out! I added -forcesteamloader in the Arguments box for the FOSE executable located in the Modify Executable window and i no longer have the presets options greyed out.

Did i do it right? And for future reference, is this something i need to do with other dll-based mods?

You usually do not need to add it, that depends on the script extender and game variant (you do not need that flag for the Steam variant of Fallout 4).
