I'd like to thank all the authors for putting this together. I've been modding Skyrim LE and SSE (more recently) for a long time, never quite getting round to playing it again. This time is no exception, however with the help of this guide I'm getting closer to the ultimate goal. I have a few questions and suggestions though: Is it worth converting some of the smaller mods that have no dependants / patches to ESL? Lock Overhaul for example. EDIT: It should in theory be possible to convert those with dependants to ESL and change the masters for the patches. Is it worth (rather than merging patches) converting to ESPlite? (ESPs with compacted form IDs, tagged as ESL) This is fairly easy, and there is now a script for the beta release of SSEdit that identifies ESPs that can be converted, either by just adding the ESL flag, or by renumbering and compacting formIDs prior to doing so. . . . Which brings me on to my final question / query: As there is now a move to OMEGA, would you please consider the following patch compendium by Quinn? https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/18369 These can be installed as ESPlite plugins and seem to cover many of the mods installed as part of your guide. (Thought it might free up some esp space?) Thanks once again. I'd happily contribute to the author's beer and wine fund if pointed in the direction of where I can do so? PS. If all of this sounds like too much work, and if anyone is happy to do some testing I'm happy to convert a few ESPs to ESPlite or ESL and stick them in a dropbox?
