General Settings¶
Warnings are highlighted in yellow and indicate issues detect by LOOT. They are usually easily fixable. Most of the time, warnings just tell you that you’re missing patches needed for 2 mods to work correctly. LOOT will actually tell you where these can be found and sometimes will even link you to their pages. Have you tried running SkyrimLauncher.exe again? For me, sometimes the Windows registry will 'forget' that the game is installed. Since LOOT relies on the game's registry entry to find it, this means it can't detect the game. Running the launcher should restore the necessary registry keys. I use NMM, have not tried MO, of what i understand you just need the newest Loot Dev version and it should find skyrim SE by itself, But as i stated above, its really important to remove everything related to Loot or you get errors.
- Default Game
- If set to something other than Autodetect, this overrides game autodetection. If the game specified is not detected, LOOT falls back to autodetection.
- Language
- Controls the language LOOT uses. Any plugin messages that do not have translations in the selected language will be displayed in English, if available, or in their available language otherwise.
- Theme
- Controls the theme LOOT loads. If the specified theme is not found, LOOT falls back to the default theme.
- Enable Debug Logging
- If enabled, writes debug output to
%LOCALAPPDATA%LOOTLOOTDebugLog.txt
. Debug logging can have a noticeable impact on performance, so it is off by default.
- Update masterlist before sorting
- If checked, LOOT will update its masterlist, should an update be available, before sorting plugins.
Game Settings¶
LOOT’s game-specific settings can be customised in the games table. New game profiles can be added, making it easy to use LOOT across multiple copies of a game, including total conversion mods. LOOT ships with settings for the “Nehrim - At Fate’s Edge” total conversion mod as an example. Game profiles can also be deleted, though the active game cannot have its profile deleted, and LOOT will recreate the profiles for the base games it supports (Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, Skyrim Special Edition, Skyrim VR, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4 and Fallout 4 VR) when it is next run.
Every game LOOT runs for must use the plugin file format and load order system of one of the following games:
- TES III: Morrowind
- TES IV: Oblivion
- TES V: Skyrim
- TES V: Skyrim Special Edition
- TES V: Skyrim VR
- Fallout 3
- Fallout: New Vegas
- Fallout 4
- Fallout 4 VR
The URL of the repository that LOOT uses to update its local copy of the masterlist. If left empty, masterlist updating will be skipped.
Masterlist repositories are Git repositories that are configured to allow unauthenticated read access and contain a masterlist file named masterlist.yaml
in their root directory. The LOOT team maintains a set of official repositories for the games that LOOT supports by default.

- Nearby dead and undead can be seen through walls.
Detect Dead is an expert level Alteration spell that allows you to see nearby undead creatures and dead bodies through any obstacle. Friendly targets will appear as glowing blue particles, while enemies will appear as red or pink particles. The effect lasts for approximately one second after you stop concentrating.

Notes[edit]
Loot Can't Find Skyrim
- Aside from detecting nearby undead, this spell can be useful to detect fallen foes that may be hard to find and loot after a battle, especially in grass-covered areas or in the dark. It will also make it easier to determine fallen allies, as it will differentiate between friend or foe.
- The game's definition of enemy or friendly may not always match what you expect. Some creatures or NPCs that will only attack you if they get close, such as sleeping draugr, will be highlighted in blue when at a distance. Once you approach and the enemy attacks, its color will change to red.
- Most skeletons' body parts will scatter individually, and will leave a faint trail from its origin when this spell is used.
- Also related is the Detect Life spell, which can detect living NPCs and creatures the same way this spell detects undead.
- Casting this spell with two hands or dual-casting does not have any effect on the range of the spell, thus only draining your magicka faster. This also applies to Detect Life.
- You will gain Alteration skill XP at a faster rate while casting this spell when there are more (un)dead in range, as you get XP for each affected target. Casting this spell in a raided dungeon, a crowded vampire lair, or after a battle scene can increase your skill level very rapidly. One could move bodies and collect them on a pile to keep them in range.
