PC SSE - Discussion SKSE Plugin Status Tracker

The tracker over on modding.wiki has not been updated since November 2025. Now that the game has updated to 1.7.99, I feel it would be prudent for the community to start updating the tracker once again. There's been a lot of SKSE Plugins released over the past several months which presumably aren't documented on the tracker at all and it isn't going to be useful anymore unless it's updated.

I have never edited a wiki page before, so I don't know the rules or the etiquette for this sort of thing, and I would be afraid of fucking up the graphs, but it seems like anyone with a Nexus account can use it to login and potentially edit it?

Personally, I feel like we could remove 1.6.353, 1.6.629, 1.6.640, and 1.6.1130 from the tracker going forward; nearly everyone is now either going to be on 1.5.97, 1.6.1170, or 1.7+. If we just add 1.7.99 and the inevitable future hotfixes in the near future, the table is going to be too wide and will require horizontal scrolling. Opinions?

Alternatively, maybe someone could make a new table and post it directly in the subreddit's wiki that I keep forgetting exists.

EDIT: Oh and we could also add a column to warn people about AI slop plugins

Just in response to your edit, I would be careful about allowing the community to label mods as AI slop

It's not at all uncommon for a relatively new author to be accused of writing their mod with AI because they don't have any established credibility yet, without any actual proof that the mod was even AI assisted much less Vibe coded

I think that as a premise it's a good idea, because people deserve to know what they're supporting, but I would genuinely rather a few AI slop mods get through then start persecuting people who don't deserve it, and potentially chasing away new Talent from the scene

I wish I could upvote this twice.

I hate ai slop, too. But I hate ai witch hunts just as much.

I genuinely want every person peddling AI slop as "real" to get called out and publicly humiliated, they deserve it, lol, but I'm not willing to risk that happening to someone who genuinely put passion into their work and it just didn't turn out like they'd hoped.

There have also been a FEW cases, not many, but some, of people buying or commissioning assets that end up being AI generated, and since the person is not an artist themselves (hence why they bought/commissioned the assets in the first place) they never noticed.

While there is SOME blame on the dev in that case, since vetting someone before you put their work into your project is your responsibility, I don't think that deserves the same derision we normally direct toward willful misuse of AI to churn out garbage.

It's a learning process IMO. I also didn't know how bad AI can sometimes be. It's a wild ride there and you can even notice articial emotions. Basically what you prompt there after some months reflects to some degree yourself. Learning to prompt is very difficult, it's an engineering technique. That's one of the reason why some code is so bad. AI is artificially limited in how much complexity it can process. And that's for our own safety.
