Is this needed if I'm installing the game on linux and using proton to run the game?

How do you do the left pane automatic sorting? Even if it gets it in the wrong order, I'm assuming it'd get it closer than my first attempt.

I was asking about sorting the left pane mod order, yes. I thought it might save me a lot of work if it would sort the thing automatically and I could just make a few adjustments where needed. I'm not sure that I am doing a STEP install. I was using the STEP 2.2.9 instructions listed here: https://wiki.step-project.com/STEP:Guide But I was going to pick and choose mods that I liked, many of which I was moving over from my Nexus Mod Manager files.

Is there a way to automatically sort installed plugin priorities to mirror the LOOT sorting of load order priority, or do I have to do that manually? I actually hadn't found the step guide for mod organizer until just now, I had gotten my info from Gopher's videos. I'll look through that now.

I didn't know about the nameplates thing. Thank you. The second request was with mods that need to be manually updated by replacing certain files. I used the merge function while installing to place them in the same folder and replace files, but I lost track of whether I replaced them already or whether I installed the replacements first. I had a lot of mod files in my downloads section.

Mod organizer needs a way to search installed plugins and to search downloads. It is very difficult to find a particular mod when I have a great many installed and/or downloaded. Also, with the ability to merge installations, it really needs a way to tell which particular file was installed by which particular download. I lost track of whether certain mods needed to be updated, or if I had installed them in the wrong order. I'd like to say that despite these issues, I'm really impressed by this tool. Thank you for developing and sharing it.

"10.2. SkyRe_main module has an ESP conflict with Werewolf Mastery. Open TES5Edit. Select WerewolfMastery.esp and SkyRe_Main.esp then click [OK]. Expand "Armor" under WerewolfMastery.esp and select the "0002AC60" node. Right-click the column for SkyRe_Main.esp and select "Copy as override into...". Select "" and click [OK]. In the resulting text box type "WM-SkyRe Patch". Drag "Script" under "VMAD - Virtual Machine Adapter" (Note: Not the entire "VMAD - Virtual Machine Adapter" node!) from WerewolfMastery.esp to "WM-SkyRe Patch.esp". Drag "DESC - Description" from WerewolfMastery.esp to "WM-SkyRe Patch.esp". Click the [X] in the upper right hand corner, uncheck "Backup plugins", and click [OK]. Navigate to /overwrite and move the new file(s) to /mods/Werewolf Mastery." I think WM has been updated since this was written. I don't find a 0002ac60 node, or an option for "copy as override into..." I'd like to know if this is still necessary.
