I notice hitching when crossing cell boundaries. I tried removing OBIS (and started a fresh game) since it adds extra scans; helped a bit perhaps but it's still there. SiC is set to no extra spawns as well. I only added a couple of items on top of SRLE, none of them scripted.

 

What's the most likely culprit? XMPSE? It applies skeletons by script now, right? Just trying to smooth out my gameplay a bit. My rig is not quite as powerful as yours.

As many of you know, my STEP-based mod guide Skyrim Revisited has been in development for quite some time. I estimate it currently is about 85% complete until release. I get feedback pretty much every

The guide will only ever recommend free versions of mods. I will not be updating or providing conflict resolutions for paid mod versions.

Hey Neo - I got your Nexus PM, and just wanted to mention that STEP / SR:LE users should definitely NOT use the new AOS "smart" installer.   Because you handle compatibility patching elsewhere, choose

I'm going to start by just adding the loot rule for Vividian ENB Extended after the base esp. Can someone else compare my load order with theirs and see if anything else is off?

My load order is quite a bit different - though I'm uncertain in what ways that might be significant. I'm not sure how to post it here - is there a way to export it from MO?

 

[Edit] I think I figured it out.

If there's a bug, please report it on the GitHub issues page so I can address it.

 

 

You're not using the program correctly.  You should NEVER move the plugins out of the mod folder they're installed in.  That folder is the key to how merge plugins copies general assets, so if you want to use the copy general assets option to make a completely standalone "mod" in Mod Organizer, you absolutely have to leave those ESPs in their original folders.

 

I don't really understand what your process for merging is.  Mine is far simpler:

1. My mods in the left pane of MO are organized by category.  (you can also sort by category in MO, if you don't have them in the by-category install order)

2. I select all of the mods I want to merge from a particular category by clicking on the top mod, holding shift, and clicking on the bottom mod.

3. I press SPACE to activate all of the mods.

4. The mods are already in a single solid block in my load order, so I start Merge Plugins, add them to a new merge, resolve any issues with the merge (you can ignore non-contiguous errors if you want), and then build it.

5. I select the block of mods in Mod Organizer and deactivate it.

6. I right-click -> All Mods -> Refresh Mod Organizer's mod list, and then activate the merged mod, which is the last item in the mods list.

 

As you yourself have found, Merge Plugins Standalone has a massive number of advantages over the Merge Plugins Script.  If you're having problems with it, you're probably doing something wrong, because it's pretty solid.

 

That said, the next version will have a plugin selection form (already built) so you can choose not to load certain plugins into the application if you so wish.

Hi Mator,

 

This is a nice post with some useful tips. I use a somewhat similar approach to yours when using Merge Plugins Standalone; but...cannot deny that there a lot (I mean a lot) of times that i feel kinda "nostalgic" for the the Script version. Reason solely being that I love working in TES5Edit environment...just make me feel that I have a bit of a better control on the outcome of the merged plugin.

There are of course cases (various NPC mods comes to mind) that the plugins I am merging need conflict resolution on the final merged plugin. This cannot be done with the standalone version as you need to conflict-resolve them in this very first session of the merging process and before you save the merged plugin. Otherwise, you might end up with master dependencies (that depends on whether any FormID on the individual ones has been renumbered) on the merged plugin of some of the individual plugins that you have already merged.

 

Unfortunately this is not possible (from what I know) within the standalone version as there is no way that TES5Edit can be called upon before saving the merged esp for the first time.

 

This is the sole reason that i keep using the script version.

 

Please do not get me wrong...standalone is a great great tool with a lot of potential; just not suitable (pls do correct me if I am wrong) for every single occasion out there!  ::):

Well here's the thing... I don't have issues. However, from the above you can see other people are getting different (incorrect) results. Therefore more rules are needed despite me getting lucky because my starting order was "better".

You know, I once made separate BOSS rules for Every. Single. Mod. I installed, so that I could play around with load orders to solve land tearing issues and easily put them back when I lost track of how they should have been. I tend to plan mods in geographic areas - so I have a category for "Whiterun Hold" (for example) and would add all the location mods I liked from that hold, play around with load order to get as close as I could, then merge them and create a patch to take care of any obviously broken areas. Then I'd adjust my load order rules in BOSS and move on to the next area.

 

Talk about tedious! My mod list was insane. It's no wonder I have 957 hours into the game, and have only ever met the graybeards once.

something ive been wondering : the  .esp's that are merged in the Bashed patch and are disabled , does it still matter where in the loadorder  those disabled .esp's  are located or are they now useless  and their location no longer matters ?

I don't quite understand the merge esp section. Should I

1. move the mods that I am merging to the bottom of the right MO pane and leave all mods activated 

2. move the mods that I am merging to the bottom of the right MO pane and only activate the mods I am merging an their masters

3. move the mods that I am merging to the bottom of the right MO pane and activate only the mods I am merging

When I ran the Merge Standalone program it wouldn't initialize for me.  It seems like ALL esps that are patches must be unchecked.   It does tell you which esps are tripping you up.   Once I unchecked them I was good to go.

Not 100% sure about the merge process.  For example the RSChildren merge.   After the successful merge it looks like the new file -----RS Children Merged has all the assets of of RS Children Overhaul and the 3 patches(booksofskyrim, Falsk, Wyrms)  Except for the ESM file.  So in this case I can uncheck the three patch files but I need to keep RS Children Overhaul checked in left pane unless I move the ESM to -----RS Children Merged.   Is this correct ?

Very interesting mod for Mod Organizer https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/71625/? .  First MOO https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/71383/? another mod for mod organizer.  There are a few other mods for Mod organizer but yea.  I'll probably test it out when I get a chance *which is not very soon at the very least still saving up for custom build -_- *

 

 

The one thing I might be nervous about are the merges and making a few mods that is dependent on one of the individual unofficial patches to have USLEEP as a master.   But other than that I think it will be quite fun in a way.

Well I'm done with my SRLE build and have come across this issue.  Is anyone familiar with what mod might be causing this?  It's a flame source in the Great Porch that's in mid air.  Is it a SMIM issue maybe?   I don't know if something hanging is missing or if it's floor base and out of whack.   Thanks all...

I'm going to say something is wrong with either ELFX or one of the other lighting mods most likely ELFX.

It's funny how LOOT works,  I don't have any other mods installed on top of SRLE yet it's different (notice ELFX plugins are higher up) than NEO's and some others who have posted...
