MO Won't launch SKSE? SKSE won't launch game? IDK

[GamerPoets]

I'm guessing this is an MO issue. Nothing has changed on my system. No OS updates (turned off). Also happens with FONV and FO3 so I'm guessing its not a script extender wide issues.

 

-Open MO. Launch game. Window opens "Click OK when steam is open" or something to that effect (steam is already open before that window). Click OK. Game tries to launch (large black box). MO reverts to its initial state. Game launcher opens (game should be launched already. launcher should not open). Launch game through launcher. MO profile is ignored as game is launching directly from folder (no mods load or anything as if MO was skipped over)

 

-Launch SKSE from game folder just to see what happens. SKSE opens the game launcher instead of launching the game. 

 

 

... any ideas? Hoping that someone else has had this issue in the past and its something fixable. 

 

EDIT: If i launch the TES5.exe through MO the launcher menu opens as well (same whole scenario).

 

EDIT2: If I launch the TES5.exe via the game folder it opens the launcher... now thats just weird. The launcher menu shoudl only open if you open the launcher.exe I believe?

... alright... so lol.. I restarted the PC and the games launch now (no more forced game launcher... all games work)... weirdest thing I've ever seen. I had just started the PC previously to the issue but I figured why not try the old kick the machine and reboot it. Weird.

Probably just something wonky going on with Steam making the game think Steam wasn't running is my guess.

Good to see you Greg = ) 

 

Yeah, Steam isn't always the most perfect lol. Appreciate you checking in.
