Do I need this if I already have SSME installed with its own d3dx9_42.dll file? I remember modding the game several times now with both installed and no problems but, funny enough, I'm noticing several mods I install have the same file. Just curious.
edit: Just realized another essential mod I usually get requires this so nevermind. Answered my own question.
Got this working through MO2 and with Keyzama's Root Builder (Its internally downloaded via MO2's Plugin Finder and is practically backwards compatible with LE) Works wonders and just ignore the "no valid data structure" its fine. Same applies for OG SKSE version when making that work with Root builer too!
Given all this update fiasco ive gone back lol and its fun
Was wondering about dxvk also, i use the last dll loaded by enblocal. I'll test. I experience crash with dxvk itself, the game crash or freeze sometimes anywhere.
If guys you are using wine or any wrapper with DXVK to run the game (me, using Winlator on a phone with SD870), could try this way:
1. Normally download the version 2 of the mod, unzip files to the game root folder; 2. Replace the d3dx9_42_.dll with the system's d3dx9_42.dll (you MUST copy it from c:/Windows/System32 or c:/Windows/SysWow64); * 3. Create a new log file name d3dx9_42.log then run the skse_loader.exe. 4. Enjoy!
* DXVK wraps the DX API requires to itself using the d3d9 related files, so the SYSTEM with DXVK its DX files were replaced with all DXVK wrapped files, so we just need to copy the TARGET SYSTEM ONE to the game root, and NOT THE MICROSOFT ORIGINAL ONE.
I followed the instructions and put the file in the Skyrim directory folder. I then tried to launch my game and got this error "SKSE/Trampoline.h(187): Failed to handle allocation request" I set UseOSAllocators=1 I dont know if I did anything wrong. PLease help me fix this.
@ VinceCZ, GoatBoy11; The root directory or directory is where the game's main files are located. The primary folder containing your game's files would be considered such. So under E:\SteamLibrary E\steamapps\common\Skyrim "Skyrim" would be considered the directory. The directory usually contains the .exe for the game. SkyrimSE.exe (SE) or TESV.exe (LE) are both the same thing for different versions of the game. Just look for the main ".exe" file for your game. Do not install this SKSE plugin under "Data", but here's a brief example of how you would normally install other mods: -

The "Data" folder in your directory is where you usually want to put your mod files and folders. Extract them using 7zip or Winrar. (Hold right-click on the .zip, drag and drop it where you want it to be extracted, and you're done.)
E:\SteamLibrary E\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Data Extract your mod folder into the "Data" folder in order to manually install it. It's that easy.Yours is probably installed on your C:\ drive under a different name. I am only posting examples. Wherever your Data folder is, that's the target.
*After manually installation, you have to activate your mods in your mod organizer or manually when launching the game afterwards. I hope this helps.

edit: nvm, wrong mod
DXVK makes the game run and look much better, but with it your .dll won't work / the game will crash.
I would really love to use DXVK with your mod, though if there is no way to make it work I will use your mod only.
I experience crash with dxvk itself, the game crash or freeze sometimes anywhere.

To install it, you need to put d3dx9_42.dll in Skyrim's root directory (where TESV.exe is).
