== SkyrimPrefs.ini Tweaks ==
=== Z-Fighting Fix ===
I highly recommend reading and applying a [http://wiki.step-project.com/Guide:Z-Fighting#tab=What_is_your_fix_3F Z-Fighting Fix].
== Mod Installation ==
As with my custom STEP install, I install in category groups when possible rather than a set order with the following priority:<br />
<b>Utilities -> Bug Fixes -> World Meshes/Textures -> Effects -> Sound -> UI -> Actor Meshes/Textures -> Animations -> Equipment Meshes/Textures -> Gameplay Changes -> Content</b><br />
Obviously, these categories are not always exclusive (textures included with meshes, etc). All mods are in LOOSE file format rather than BSA where available.

== Final Steps ==
Now that mod installation is completed, we only have a few steps left to do.

This will order your esp/esm files properly to run in the game.
My load order from BOSS/WB is as follows:
TBD
=== Step 2: Activate ESPs / Create Bashed Patch ===
Start Wrye Bash and right click on the Bashed Patch, 0.esp and select "Rebuild Patch". Click skip for any pop ups calling to deactivate mods. Make sure only the Leveled Lists check box is checked, do NOT merge Patches or Alias Mod Names. This will merge the leveled lists from the installed mods so there are no conflicts.
=== Step 3: Enjoy! ===
Your done, have fun!
