ENB through MO2

[Senrul]

I know there are a few similar questions already answered, but I couldn't figure out how to do this myself.

I've not been having any problems using SKSE through MO2 with my regular mods installed through the organizer. I know that ENB is not a regular mod, so I followed a tutorial which instructed me to copy all but the text files into my SSE directory, which I did. When I run SKSE directly from the folder, it works fine; the ENB startup text shows in the top left corner just as it should. When I run SKSE through MO2, though, it doesn't seem that ENB is even on. I read that this has something to do with "editing MO2's .ini files," but apart from locating where they are (I think) I don't know what I'm supposed to do. Do I just take any ENB files I'd put in SSE's directory and put them with MO2's .ini files instead? Do I leave some and move others? Is there some sort of editing I need to do? I feel like I'm going crazy.

There's configuration needed for MO2 to launch via SKSE. See this page (and note the launcher configuration at the bottom).

If you still have issues, I recommend running through basic setup by following our guides linked at top of this forum. It's situations like these for which we created our guides.

I ran through the SKSE guide linked and found nothing changed - my mods worked the same (great!), as did ENBSeries (not as great). I read through the AE modding guide linked at the top of the page, and for all the references to ENBs, I couldn't find any sort of instructions on how to actually use them in tandem with MO2. Am I missing something?
