:*According to TheCompiler, "Tobes Highres Textures" overwrites "HD Misc", "Skyrim HD" and "High Quality Food and Ingredients", so check to be certain that this is the case. Files and package '''[Order]''' numbers that will be overwritten will be listed first under the "=Lower===" heading, and those that will overwrite the currently-selected mod will be listed under the "=Higher===" heading ('''Figure 16'''). Verify the accuracy of TheCompiler’s claims. | :*According to TheCompiler, "Tobes Highres Textures" overwrites "HD Misc", "Skyrim HD" and "High Quality Food and Ingredients", so check to be certain that this is the case.

**Once installed, the boxes preceding package names will be either yellow or green, and each will have a '+' symbol, which indicates that the package is installed.

Infrequently, packages that are highlighted in yellow or orange have not been installed according to the defined heirarchy. This can easily be corrected by right clicking on the package and selecting '''[Install Missing]'''. Afterwards, right click the package again and click '''[Anneal]''' or '''[Anneal All]''' to tell BAIN to consider all packages in the install list. The '''[Anneal]''' function simply tells BAIN to refresh its assessment of the defined install hierarchy and reapply those rules to correct any unintended conflicts. It never hurts to use this function frequently, and '''[Auto Anneal]''' should always be ticked in BAIN’s main context menu to honor the install hierarchy. | Infrequently, packages that are highlighted in yellow or orange have not been installed according to the defined heirarchy.
