Aeradom Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 You know at this rate, I might be able to start my Skyrim playthrough by Christmas. I suppose that's the price of being too cautious. In any event, I'm on the step where I'm downloading the optimal textures and need a little clarification (and I couldn't find an exact answer when I searched). It says to install the part one version of the mod, but not if I should extract that as well. From what I can gather, it seems to be a preference thing, but I have little experience with this sort of thing so I can't really reach an informed decision. My instinct is to not extract the BSA as that seems the simplest option, but just wanted to double check to make sure I'm not suppose to extract them as well. Link to comment
SwedishElk Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Yes extract ALL bsasUnless stated otherwise, like Immersive College of Winterhold. Most important of ALL, read ALL text in every section. It's very easy to miss some instructions first times doing this. Link to comment

After deciding it was better of not to, I continued on and then reached the regular mods where it said as much. Oh well, thanks for the response anyways. Link to comment
Nebulous112 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Yeah, early on in the SR:LE guide it has a big warning saying to make sure you extract everything. Every mod in SR:LE can be extracted, I believe. There are a couple in SR:LE Extended that cannot. Link to comment

Every mod in SR:LE can be extracted, I believe. There are a couple in SR:LE Extended that cannot. I think only two mods Inigo and Immersive College of Winterhold are from SRLE Extended. These are not unpacked because the author recommends this. Link to comment
Greg Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Are there any specific reasons you wouldn't extract a BSA? Link to comment
paul666root Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Immersive College of Winterhold - (Error while trying to unpack the BSA so left it unpacked)regard to Inigo, there is a weird mesh issue when you first meet him in riften jail and after speaking with the mod author he suggested to leave it packed in the BSA.
