    I did not enter this vid with high hopes. I never seem to have any luck with technology, or modding my game files manually, which is why I always stuck to autoinstallers like Nexus, and a big reason why I wanted a steam deck in the first place, for its console-like PC gaming interface... but the temptation of modded skyrim on a portable was too strong, so I swallowed my fear and tried to follow along with your instructions, simple, precise, clear, easy to follow... and am a grown man weeping with joy to see the game working, in all its modded glory. Thank you kind sir. Blessings of akatosh apon ye.

    Small tip: I decided to do a custom large mod list and followed this video's advice, mostly to the letter. I used vortex on my under-powered personal computer to just make sure the load order was good.
    1) I used SKSE, but DID NOT rename it to the launcher until AFTER I transferred all the files to the deck. Vortex refuses to acknowledge that little workaround and thinks it doesn't exist.
    2) Avoid SKYUI mods, mostly because the gamepad makes it terrible. The original menu layout works fine as it's most similar to the console.
    3) I used the 2k shader mods, there's no reason to go crazy.
    4) I avoided Open Cities. I could not get it to work *well* but YMMV.
    5) If using CBBE and body slides, do those on the computer, then transfer them. The Deck doesn't have good mouse and keyboard. I instead used presets to avoid this.
    6) Don't forget to rebind your keys and make your life easier! There are a ton of unique controller layouts. I use a customized FF14 controller style, where I press and hold L1, which creates new bindings for my letter buttons on the right pad. I then do that for R1, which means I have 8 equipped quick spells.
    Have fun!

    I was able to follow this tutorial, but with Mod Organizer 2 and Explorer++ and it worked perfectly. My slow PC doesn't handle this very fast, but it was worth it. I added Explorer++ as launchable program in MO2, ran it with MO2, selected everything in the virtual game folder, then Edit>Copy to Folder to copy all the virtual folder stuff to folder that I then put in my flash drive.

      - For info on how to use MO2, there are TH-cam videos for this.
      - Add Explorer++ as a custom executable.
      - Create your profile setup in MO2.
      - Make sure SKSE is installed.
      - Run Explorer++ through MO2.
      - Select the Data folder in Explorer++
      - Select Edit > Copy to Folder to copy it to the flash drive.
      - Then follow the rest of this video for moving it to the Steam Deck.

      Putting windows on an SD card will wear it out super quick from all the write cycles if you just install as is, they're not built for that level of endurance like SSD chips are.

    I thought I followed the directions but get a message "couldn't find TESV.exe" when I try to launch Skyrim on my deck and on my PC. Anyone know what I should do? 😭

    If already have a vanilla Skyrim save file on my Steam Deck will this method preserve it?

    Would this method also work for Oblivion and Morrowind?

    probably a dumb question but I am completely new to modding ... Is there a reason that you have to download and install the mods on a windows version of the game then manually move them over via USB? Would it be possible to run Vortex on the Steamdeck desktop mode and install them directly?

      Vortex to the best of my knowledge still does not have a linux version.

    Will this method work with FNIS or BodySlide? Since those bake each time you boot, wouldn’t the steam deck need a localized instance of those .exe’s?

      I'm likely using wrong terminology here, and forgive me it's been a while since I've used it...
      Iirc In MY experience with FNIS, once you set everything on the PC itll transfer fine on steam deck. But if you need changes made or need to add other FNIS based mods, youll need to initialize it again on your PC first before transfering it over.

    Mine crashes every time. I’ve followed instructions and it’s till not working (aside from renaming the files as the first time I did it I had an error message even after changing it back and I’ve read that that’s not an option anymore and you have to manually launch the skse itself.)

      I sent a reply earlier and it isn't visible to me so i assume i triggered something that blocked my comment. In brief, google "Pikdum's Tools" and you should be fine from there. Good luck.

    I got this to work using the normal version of Skyrim. But for some reason it doesn’t work for my Special Edition? It’ll load the mods but not the mod order, I can’t change it in-game because it won’t let me move SkyUI above anything else. Don’t suppose anyone has a solution for this? A lot of my mods require it unfortunately 😅
    (Quick edit just to say I did run this perfectly on my laptop before transferring it to my steam deck, this is only a steam deck issue)

    I don't know what I did wrong I followed everything you did but when I launch the game it just doesn't open. I tried multiple protons like excremental and the newer one but it just wouldn't open

    So I have Skyrim installed and it says on Vortx that the game is not discovered and hasnt been automatically discovered. How do I manually set the file and how do I make it do it automatically?
