Could the problems I'm experiencing getting step to work be caused by unpacking BSA files? Â I did that whenever prompted by Mod Manager.

I've been having a lot of trouble getting STEP to work, as well as other mod configurations I was playing around with, and I'm beginning to wonder. Say I want to use mod A and mod B, they are incompatible on their own but one of them has a compatibility patch available. Do I install the patch into Mod Organizer as the mod it patches and use Merge to combine the patch with the mod (what I've been doing,) or do I rename the patch and place it down the load order? Do I do something different if the patch is put out by a third party? Thanks for your advice!

THAT is helpful, thanks for pointing me to it!

I have installed most of STEP, run it through BOSS, and cleaned up some of the files. Â Now I'm looking at the mods in Mod Organizer and I see that several of them are being completely overwritten by other mods. I actually removed some of the redundant mods in aggravation, the one still around is HD Enhanced Terrain, placed after Enhanced Distant Terrain 1 and 2, along with the DB patch, it still says it's a redundant mod. Â What did I do wrong? Â Am I supposed to make sure the mods on the list conform to the STEP order after running boss? Â If so, mods with ESP files don't get moves, right? Thanks in advance! Aliased.
