Falskaar & Consistent Older People Update Query

[Garfink]

Don't you love and hate updates, now I don't know if all my old patches work!

 

For falskaar I am using the following patches:

 

ClimatesOfTamriel Falskaar.esp

Falskaar Wildlife.esp

Closefaced helmets with circlets - Falskaar.esp

High Level Enemies - SIC Falskaar.esp

FalskaarRNDHotfix.esp

Falskaar SkyRe Faction Patch.esp

Falskaar Skyre Alternative Start Patch.esp

 

For Consistent Older People:

 

Skyre Consistent Older People.esp

DiversePriests_ConsistentOlderPeoplePatch.esp

 

I don't think the Falskaar update is essential so I haven't updated yet.  But Consistent Older people seems like an essential update as it brings changes from the current USKP.

 

What do you guys think?

Yeah this sucks. Sometimes patches that are old will overwrite the newer updated mod. Especially bad for USKP forwards.

 

The way I fix it is to create a new patch in tes5edit based on old patch plus the new updated mod. Hopefully the new mod has a good changelog. USKP has a good changelog so it takes a little trial and error to figure out which records to use etc. Basically I compare old and new mod, as well as old patch and USKP. Its a pain, but with really outdated patches it works.

Thought so.

 

That is most logical and it would be the way I would handle the problem..... if I knew how to compare and create a new patch using Tes5edit.  

 

I can follow instructions well enough when using Tes5edit, but I have not much idea what I am doing.
