Setup

We recommend using the Crowd Control desktop app if you are new to modding with this game. If you want to apply the mod yourself, feel free to follow these steps.

If you are confused about what version you have, check the in game pause menu. Under SYSTEM, in the bottom left you should see the full version details.

Anniversary Edition Support (v1.6.1170)

Use the Crowd Control desktop app to automatically install our mod!

If you want to manually add the mod, follow the below steps:

1. Download the full skse + Crowd Control mod here.
2. Copy the contents of this zip to the Skyrim Special Edition steam folder. (Right click Skyrim SE in Steam > Manage > Browse local files)
3. “Replace files in the destination” if asked.
4. Copy the CrowdControl.ini file from the zip to Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\.
5. Select “Skyrim Special Edition (PC)” from the Crowd Control desktop app, and Launch gam!
6. Confirm you see “CrowdControl.esp” from the title screen Creation menu.
7. Press START in the Crowd Control desktop app.

Anniversary Edition Support (v1.6.659)

Use the Crowd Control desktop app to automatically install our mod!

For a manual setup, follow these steps:
1. Download the full skse + Crowd Control mod here.
2. Find your install of Skyrim and copy the contents into the folder.
– This should be where you find “SkyrimSE.exe”
– If you are not sure, try “C:\GOG Games\Skyrim Anniversary Edition”
3. Copy the CrowdControl.ini file from the zip to Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\.
4. Select “Skyrim Special Edition (PC)” from the Crowd Control desktop app, and Launch game!
5. Confirm you see “CrowdControl.esp” from the title screen Mod menu and make sure it’s enabled.
6. Press START in the Crowd Control desktop app.

Pre-Anniversary Edition (downgraded) Support (v1.5.97)

This is the same process as above, but we are using a different plugin dll to support v1.5.97. You can also use the One Click Install, just replace the files as needed.

• Use this full SKSE + Crowd Control mod instead of the one listed above.
• You can also run the One Click as normal and replace the new plugin with this one. Just extract the dll to Skyrim Special Edition\Data\SKSE\Plugins and replace CrowdControl.dll.

Mod Organizer

Please keep in mind before installing Crowd Control alongside other mods that we only officially support the base game. We’ll do our best effort to help you if something goes wrong but be aware that conflicts could arise that we may not be able to help resolve.

We assume you already have SKSE installed as part of your instance, if not, run our Mod Setup and create a new instance. This is currently fully tested using Skyrim Special Edition v1.6.1170 only.

• Run our Mod Setup to grab the ccver which installs the base install of Skyrim.
  • Or grab the file here: ccver
    • It should be placed in your main install folder of the game, outside of MO.
• From there, install this stripped down version of our mod, MO-CrowdControl-SkyrimSE-1-6-1170.zip using “Install a new mod from an archive” in MO2.
• Make sure our mod is set as Priority 0.
• Select Skyrim Special Edition from the Crowd Control desktop app, which activates the connector.
• Launch Skyrim with SKSE from MO2.
• Press Start Session from the CC desktop app.

A working setup example looks like this:

Troubleshooting MO

If your setup is not working with the above info, it’s best to setup a new instances with ONLY the Crowd Control mod setup. Then test to confirm everything works as expected.

Once you confirmed CC is working, add in your other mods!
As another warning, not all mods may work with CC, so test before going live!
