Thanks for the help (and the guide) DarkladyLexy!

Would some kind soul with a working installation mind opening up your mods in SSEEdit and telling me which records are supposed to "win" on something like Form ID 000e1695? (I suppose ZEdit would work as well.) I can't figure out if there's a valid reason for NPC Retexture Merge to be overwriting changes to Dialog Topics made by Relationship Dialogue Overhaul. Am I missing a patch?

I'd appreciate any insight anyone can offer on a specific section of the guide: under the WICO section, it says to delete "meshes\actors\character\character assets\femaleheadraces.tri" after the BSA is extracted. Why is this suggested? Although I'm following the guide somewhat closely, I'm trying this install with Vortex and, more importantly, I have skipped some mods in the guide and added others. Hence, I can't follow the guide's suggestions blindly - I have to understand the "why" behind each step. I know it's not the responsibility of everyone on this forum to help me with my "off-the-books" install, but I'd appreciate any help!

Memoso, can you open the console and click on one of the purple objects? The first two digits of the object id (shown top center of the console screen iirc) should lead you to the missing textures. They will be associated with the mod's load order. Find the mod and try to download/reinstall it. (Actually, try to click on a few of those purple things to make sure you're really selecting the problematic objects. It's sometimes easy to select the wrong object in the console.)
