Dual Sheath Redux - How do you "update it"


Question

Posted

Hi there... I followed your youtube chan tutorial on getting DSR working and have it all functioning fine (or so it seams anyway).. but I am confused about one thing..

 

Here is your tutorial video (7:20 into it)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=JG3qJ73MrIQ#t=440

 

The video says if you chaneg the loot order or add new mods to run the patcher again, and "drag the files into the pacth each time"... but he dosn't tell me how to do it. Like I have run teh patch and have it working. now installed the last few mods (perma) then I run the DSR patch again...

 

How do I add the new patch files to the existing patch?

In Mod Organizer create a DSR output folder. Run DSR. After it is finished it will place the patch (a Skyproc Patchers folder and a Dual Sheath Redux Patch.esp file).

Double click the red Overwrite folder at the bottom of the main mod window pane. It will open. You should now see the two files. Drag and drop them into the DSR Output file.

You can also skip creating the DSR Output folder and instead after running DSR simply right click the Overwrite folder and create a mod from there and name it DSR Output as lond as there are no other files in the folder.

 

When updating after making changes to you load order you just delete the files in the DSR Output folder and after rebuilding a Bashed Patch you simple have to run DSR again and drag androp the files again.

I'll put it another way. I am assuming you have DSR properly configured in the drop down tools menu. All he's saying, and what you have to do if you change anything, is do all the final steps over again. Which means:

Use Mod Organizer.
Run LOOT.
Run Wrye Bash.
Look for orange boxes.
Use TES5Edit to right click each one at a time and sort masters.
Once you're done with all those run Wrye Bash again and build a Bashed Patch. Drag and drop into a Bashed Patch folder (you have to create) from the Overwrite folder.
Run DSR (Dual Sheath Redux) if you use it. Drag and drop into a DSR output folder (you have to create) from the Overwrite folder.
Run FNIS (Fore's New Idles in Skyrim) if you use it. Drag and drop into a FNIS output folder (you have to create) from the Overwrite folder.
Make sure all the correct boxes are ticked.
For good measure close Mod Organizer and restart your computer

 

You have to do this every time there is a change to the load order which is why don't recommend updating until there are several mods you can update at once. If you are browsing Nexus and see one you like just track it until you have a decent amount of mods to update. If you were to update each reinstall each individual mod as they were updated you have to go through the whole process everyday.

 

Does this answer your question?

If you double-click the 'Overwrite' folder it will open as an explorer window showing the folders/files contained within.

Keeping that window open move your cursor away from it and, if your mouse has a wheel, scroll the background modlist until the DSR Patch mod is visible. If your mouse doesn't have a scroll-wheel you can still scroll the modlist pane by clicking the scrollbar or it's arrows at the top and bottom.

By the scrollbar I mean the UI element similar to that which you can see in your browser now at the extreme right.

 

Once the DSR Patch is visible use your mouse to select everything in the 'overwrite' folder and drag/drop them onto that DSR Patch mod. Answer yes to any questions about replacing files.

 

To be correct you aren't actually adding files to 'patch', each time you run the DSR patcher you are creating a new 'patch' and dragging these files is simply replacing the existing patch with a new one, but it is essentially the same thing.

Yes! And that way is actually a bit quicker with a few less clicks. Just delete the whole DSR Output folder, run DSR, right click Overwite "mod", click create new mod, and name it DSR Output. Then of course you have to place the folder in the right place, after the Bashed Patch and before the FNIS output, and make sure it is ticked.
