Skyrim Memory Patch - fixing ILS, uGrids CTD, freezes

[Uriel24]

Doubt it, the new functions are not even used in any mod yet.

Also tested it with 1024/512 settings and has been running fine for over an hour.

SSME works on a non steam copy of Skyrim doesn't it?

It does and so does the new SKSE Alpha build.

@MOONxo
Install SKSE Alpha as shown in Gophers movie.
Gopher runs Skyrim using Steam so he didn't tell/show an important step if you don't

- Create a shortcut to skse_loader.exe (right click on it and select copy to desktop)
- Right click on the shortcut on your desktop you just made and select properties
- Under target it shows something like "<path to your skyrim installation folder>\<main skyrim folder name> (where the TESV.exe is located)\skse_loader.exe"
- type -forcesteamloader at the end of that line (don't forget the space between " and -)

On my GF computer the end result looks like this: "G:\Games\The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim\skse_loader.exe" -forcesteamloader

I think Gopher did explain the SKSE.ini part in his video so I'm not going to repeat that here.

Important!: from now on always start Skyrim using your newly created shortcut.


or... you can just download SSME and throw the files in the main Skyrim folder and be done with it.

Thank you SOOOO Much!! Worked like a charm

All I had to do was add -forcesteamloader at the end of my shortcut target.

Love you Tuoni!!

Somebody please report to SKSE developers that they must not touch VirtualAlloc function or it's crash when ENBoost enabled.

[Uriel24]

Done.

[ENBSeries]

Downloaded SKSE apha and compared files, don't see important changes which may produce bug, will do some research a little more.

[ENBSeries]

Tested SKSE alpha, it work fine with ENBoost, so it's user side problem.

I never used the "EnablePatch=1" line and it works just fine.

Also you don't need the "[NotPlacebo] part when you use the SKSE 1.7 Alpha version of the memory patch.
Looks like you have your SKSE.ini filled with different leftovers from other versions of the memory patch.

One more thing, you need to change the "DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB=512" to: "DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB=768"

With the current values you're patching the game to the already default 256/256 memoryblocks settings.

@Tuoni
Thank you for your informative answer to my question I did suspect that I had some left overs from old patches, but with all the information on differnt forums its hard to keep everything in check
