· Load the Creation Kit as normal. Load your plugin (or create a new one)
· In this example, we’ll pretend our active plugin is “nifty.esp”
· Launch Skyrim as normal.
· Make some changes in the Creation Kit, such as moving or adding a static.
· In-game, open the console (~) and enter the command: “FCF”
o This step only applies if you loaded nifty.esp in the Data files section of the launcher
o This only has to be done once per boot of the game.
o FCF is shorthand for “force close files”, and allows the Creation Kit to save a loaded plugin
· Return to the creation kit and save nifty.esp
· Return to the game. If possible, position yourself where you’ll notice your changes.
· Open the console and enter: “HLP nifty” (or the name of your .esp file)
o HLP is shorthand for “Hotload plugin”
· The scene will re-load. Your changes show now be visible in-game!
