extern/CommonLibSSE is pinned to CommonLibSSE-NG 4.38.0, which cannot run on Skyrim 1.7.99.
Two independent reasons, both already fixed upstream:

  • 1.7.99 is the first release to move the minor version, from 6 to 7. Older builds map only
    minor == 6 to AE, so they classify 1.7.99 as SE and look for version-1-7-99-0.bin, which
    does not exist.
  • 1.7.99 ships the Address Library in format 5 (fixed 64 byte name field, dense
    direct-indexed offset array). A parser for it arrived in 6.4.0.

Without this, FLICK stops at load with:

Unsupported address library format: 5

This bumps the submodule to 6.6.3. 6.6.1 through 6.6.3 are all 1.7.99 correctness fixes,
including RUNTIME_DATA offsets and the MapMenu/LocalMapMenu layout, so 6.6.0 alone is not
enough for a UI framework.

No source changes were needed. The diff is the submodule pointer and nothing else.

What I verified before opening this:

  • Builds clean with no new warnings (MSVC 14.51, x64-windows-static).
  • Both address library IDs the hooks use still exist in versionlib-1-7-99-0.bin:
    77226 resolves to 0x1007910, 68617 to 0xCF9390.
  • Both AE hook sites still begin with E8, the near call that stl::write_thunk_call expects:
    0x1007910 + 0x275 (Renderer) and 0xCF9390 + 0x7B (Hooks).
  • Runs on 1.7.99: ImGui initialises, translations load, the console command installs, hotkeys
    enable, and the menu opens and renders in game.

4.38.0 cannot run on Skyrim 1.7.99. That release is the first to move the
minor version from 6 to 7, which older builds classify as SE and then look
for a version-1-7-99-0.bin that does not exist, and it ships the Address
Library in format 5, which they cannot parse. Both were fixed upstream in
6.4.0, and 6.6.1 through 6.6.3 add further 1.7.99 corrections.

No source changes were needed.
