1) No they don't need to be. If you've got the extracted textures (per the Optimizing the Bethesda Textures section) then it's redundant.2) Checking BSA's doesn't matter, the game will load them anyways. 3) I'll check it out... that note was from an older version of MO. Install as instructed on RCRN page then let BOSS do the sort. If I recall RCRN is just an esp and a dll so just run ATTK as usual and it should load fine. Again I wrote the section when I started SR in the previous version MO install, you may very well be correct. Will see what I find.
