Unable to get Skyrim Script Editor Pro to work!

[dwharper34]

I have installed and updated Skyrim Script Editor Pro to the latest version. When I try to open a file, I enter the file name without the extension and nothing happens.

At first I received an error about my Skyrim Path not being correct. I finally seemed to get that working, at least no more errors. Then I recieved an error from .Net about being unable to find the scripts\source folder. I created that and then in the log I received the following error:

Code: Select all

The only thing in the source folder is the TESV_Papyrus_Flags.flg file.
 
I am trying to load a .pex file.  I have tried using the File, Open menu and Drag and Drop.  I tried to associate .pex files with SkyrimScriptCompilerPro.exe and I cannot get my script to open. There are no files in the lower file open window, so I cannot select them from there.

I am running Windows 7 x64 Ultimate. My computer as stated in the log file is:

------------------------- Skyrim Script Compiler Pro V. 3.4.0.7 -------------------------

This error was before I upgraded.

I just looked in the config document and the path was still wromg and pointed to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Skyrim'. I changed it to the correct path of 'F:\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim' and saved it.

If I look at the error closely 'F:\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Data\scripts\source\.psc' the file you are trying to open as no name '.psc" is an extension. Use the file open then choose a file that exist in there to open it, if you type a file that doesn't exist that is why you will get that error

By clicking new and then cancel, I was able to drop my pex file in the window. I then created a psc file and yes it opens. When I make any changes and try to save it, I get the error 'The system cannot find the file specified'. I get the box that says there was an error, but I don't see anything new in the ErrorLog.txt file.

Don't drop the file just put it in the source folder the open it with the file open menu, after it's open you don't have to create a new one just edit it then save it. To create a new file you don't need to open anything just create new one then save it, if your still getting error send me the log from the error log, there is a button for that.

Note that your problem got me to find a bug that as nothing to do with your problem but thank you, the bug is that the error log stays behind settings, will fix today

I am glad I was able to help. The file I have is only a .pex file. I need to edit that. Is it possible to do that with your tool?

I tried putting the .pex file in the source folder and it does not show. The red error box said 'There is an error log detected you can view it in the preferences tab. Click me to close'. There is no Preferences Tab. If I go to Tools -> Preferences I get an error 'Sorry you need to have a file open to use this function.'. I am about ready to give up. I sure do wish it would have worked. Thanks for your help!

It can't decompile others work, so no it won't open any pex files.
If you want to see the settings just open a valid script file or create a new one.

As for a decompiler just make a google search for pex decompiler
