HOWTO: Patch FISSES in Vortex after recent Skyrim update

[annathepiper]

Like a bunch of other Skyrim players, I’ve been spending the last several days waiting for various mods to catch up, after Bethesda dropped their new update to the game.

FISSES (FileAccess Interface for Skyrim SE Scripts) was the last one I was waiting on, but unfortunately the author of that mod does not appear to have seen calls for it to be updated. So in the meantime, someone else has posted a patch update to their Github. I tried this out tonight and can confirm that yes, this eliminated the last of the error messages I was seeing when trying to load one of my two modded playthroughs.

This post is to document what I did in case it helps anybody else. Please note that I am specifically using Vortex, so if you’re a Mod Organizer 2 user, you are on your own for adjusting these instructions as appropriate for that tool. (But if anybody else gives me information about how to do this in MO2, I’ll be happy to update this post to show that.)
