Hello. I was following the STEP guide and it recommends Crash Fixes by meh123. (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/72725?tab=description) I have used it once before in the past. But I'm wondering if there is more to using it that what the unclear instructions on the mod page suggest. Because as the title says, it is actually "causing" the crashes right now. The author of crash fixes appears to have abandoned it, the page has over 40 bug reports, and most people are saying its causing crashes with no helpful responses. So I'm inclined to think it would be better to find an alternative. In any case, i cannot go to the source for more detailed instructions. I am currently trying to perform STEP for both LE and SE and I'm going to use whichever one turns out best, as I have been struggling with both. I know LE best but SE is alleged to be more stable. In any case, please recommend for both. Alternatively, if it is indeed good to use, kindly let me know how to use it best. As it currently stands: Racemenu crashes with it installed whenever I try to export/import a sculpt. Without crash fixes, racemenu works but I am concerned other things will begin to occur that it "was" fixing.

Yes I think so. I do the same for xLODGen? Or just xEdit?

Is this step necessary or just cosmetic? Is this like FNIS where it needs to be done when certain changes are made or is it a one time run?

Okay then. Follow up question: How do i install and use it in the simplest way possible. (I am using MO2 if it makes a difference).

I am not asking for STEP support. I'm just seeking clarity as to what this particular thing is. The rest of my post was just me venting (which I admit was inappropriate of me. Just been a stressful series of weeks for me). I apologize. My questions are very basic. 1. What is LODGen? 2. What does LODGen do? (in very simple terms please. I do not understand tech very well.) 3. Is it necessary or can I get by without it?

Hello. My name is Aki. I'm currently making the switch from LE to SE for skyrim modding. i'm trying to follow STEP and I am lost. I'm up to the part about xLODGen. I don't understand a thing. I don't know what it is, I don't know what it does, I don't understand the installation, i don't understand the use. The guide turns to gibberish for me at this point. In fact a LOT of the STEP guide has been confusing me compared to the last time I set up LE skyrim mods.
