Add launch option to make skse-loader silent (for Steam Deck users)

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Right now SKSE loader outputs its logs in a terminal. On a normal desktop PC this is fine, but on Steam Deck it could be an issue. While Valve fixed the bug that made Skyrim unplayable from this, I believe it causes sound issues when activating sleep mode, which isn't fixed by the pause plugin from Decky due to there being two windows instead of one.

Easiest solution I feel is to add a command line argument that toggles the console output so that the game just launches without a window filled with debug info. That way it's there by default, but users playing on Steam Deck can toggle the debug output if they wish.

Many processes write to stdout. This needs to be fixed on the Proton side.
