Question on "General Patch" and "Ars-Smim Patch"

[sgensemer42]

In your original SR Wiki, Neovalen, you recommended creating a "General Patch.esp" made from sections of the Dawnguard and Dragonborn ESM's. I notice that is not in your latest build. Do you consider the General Patch not necessary anymore? If not - why not?

Also in your original build, you used Ars Metallica Smithing Enhancement. This is not in your current build. Just not using it? Since I am still using it myself - would you still recommend creating a ARS-SMIM Patch.esp? Or is it not necessary with the current release of SMIM?

To be honest I think Complete Crafting Overhaul is superior in just about every way except a few that are subjective.

General patch is now included in the merged conflict resolution patch. Ars Metallica was replaced by CCO.

You talking about from the guide or the patch you posted?
