About the NG fork

‍CommonLibSSE NG is a fork of CommonLibSSE which tracks upstream updates but adds a number of enhancements

CommonLibSSE NG has support for Skyrim SE, AE, and VR, and is able to create builds for any combination of these runtimes, including all three.

This makes it possible to create SKSE plugins with a single DLL that works in any Skyrim runtime.
