I have a quick question about the guide, I think I have the right idea but I wanted to double check real quick. So when the guide says to delete every record beginning with "00" in non player characters, that includes the ones like this "000156F0" (<-- just an example) right? Or am I supposed to leave them there? I assume not since they do actually begin with "00".
Okay, thank you for clarifying that, the only two other merges I have done didn't load the DLC with it when opening the mods in FNVEdit so I wanted to make sure not to do something stupid out of impatience (Which I sometimes happen to do) and figured the best thing would be to consult a forum full of more experienced modders. Once again, thanks for the help.
I thought I said that sorry, this is what it says in the guide: "In the Merge Plugins pop up, tick all the plugins listed above and click [OK]." He says "all plugins above" The DLC files are the top-most ones, It just seems to me like merging them with mods would be bad. I just want to be absolutely sure that I am not gonna mess things up.
When I load up the three esp files in fnvedit as instructed by the guide, it drags in DLC too and then when I need to merge them and the guide says to check all the files in the window that comes up. What confuses me is that the DLC esm files are in that window? Won't that cause problems? I am not an advanced modder by any stretch of the imagination, I have installed mods and such but merging is new to me and in me newbie mindset merging the DLC esm files with mod esp files just seems risky. I might be completely wrong though. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
