Libloadorder

Libloadorder is a cross-platform library for manipulating the load order and active status of plugins for the following games:

• TES III: Morrowind
• OpenMW
• TES IV: Oblivion
• TES IV: Oblivion Remastered
• TES V: Skyrim
• TES V: Skyrim Special Edition
• TES V: Skyrim VR
• Fallout 3
• Fallout: New Vegas
• Fallout 4
• Fallout 4 VR
• Starfield

This repository hosts two Rust crates: libloadorder is the Rust library, and libloadorder-ffi is the C FFI that wraps it. The doc directory also hosts an mdbook that provides a general introduction to load orders.

To build libloadorder and its C FFI and generate C/C++ headers for it, install Rust and run cargo build --release --workspace --all-features.

Tests

The tests require testing-plugins, put them in testing-plugins in the repo root.

Run cargo test and cargo bench to run the Rust tests and benchmarks respectively.

To run the FFI tests, make sure you have CMake and C and C++ toolchains installed (e.g. MSVC on Windows, GCC on Linux), then run:

mkdir ffi/build
cmake -B ffi/build ffi
cmake --build ffi/build
ctest --test-dir ffi/build --output-on-failure

Minimum supported Rust version

The minimum supported Rust version is 1.82. This may change at any time, but there is a CI job to check that it does not change unexpectedly.
