I'm following the instructions in the STEP Skyrim SE 1.0.0 guide, and I've reached the LOD section. It's asking me to extract am ESM file to a mod folder. does anyone know of a good guide explaining how to do this? I'm specifically in step 5 under the section labelled xLODGen. Any help would be appreciated.

1. Visit the Step Forum and download SSE-Terrain-Tamriel.esm.

Download SSE-Terrain-Tamriel.esm using your browser and note where you store the file on your local computer. After you download SSE-Terrain-Tamriel.esm, open File Explorer and go to the folder where you stored this file (most likely your Downloads folder).

2. Extract the file to the (TEMP) - SSE Terrain - Tamriel - xLODGen mod folder in MO.

Hold down the Ctrl key and double click the (TEMP) - SSE Terrain - Tamriel - xLODGen mod (or right click the (TEMP) - SSE Terrain - Tamriel - xLODGen mod and click Open in Explorer) to open the mod folder in Windows Explorer. If you position the two File Explorer windows next to each other, you can drag "SSE-Terrain-Tamriel.esm" from the Downloads folder into the mod folder. The other choice is to right click on "SSE-Terrain-Tamriel.esm" in the Downloads folder, select copy, and then right click and Paste into the mod folder.

So you don't have to unpack the ESM, you only have to move the file to the mod directory? I thought that since it said extract, that it meant you had to unarchive it.

The this step is just using the wrong word since the ESM file is not packed in a zip/7z/rar archive. It may be clearer to change this step to "Copy the file to the (TEMP) - SSE Terrain - Tamriel - xLODGen mod folder in MO."

I fixed the wording in that section and rewrote some of it for clarity.
