[edit]

Mods dependent upon this patch are tagged RED in the left margin of guide mod tables.

Plugin Header

The header has some specific information or settings to be applied.

Flags

The Patch does not have any flags set. They are not ESLs due to the nature of some edits. Making them ESLs would require compacting them in the CK every update. It's simply not a feasible or a recommended practice for conflict resolution patches that encompass entire mod lists.

Form Version

The Form Version for the plugin needs to be v44. The Creation Kit will set the proper Form Version for the plugin, itself, as well as all the records within. This process is very simple but results in require cleanup. This process is completed any time new records are added to the Patch.

Modifications

This section holds references for records included that are not merged from other mods. These are edits created from scratch using either the CK or xEdit. Some of these changes originated from other mods, however, the changes are so simple (one or two value changes) that if the author didn't have open permissions, Step simply recreated it. Nonetheless, Step gives credit to these authors for their original ideas or discovered fixes:

Spell

Adds conditions to the Nord's racial power, Batter Cry, so that it only effects hostiles; thus only hostiles will flee from the use of the power.

Battle Cry Fix (thanks, NTense)

Leveled Lists

The Step SkyrimSE CR Patch includes hand-merged leveled-lists for the Guide. These merged lists would have been similar to what was being provided by Wrye Bash's Bashed Patch. These merges are created by hand and each conflict is checked to ensure only the correct and desired forwards are made vs WB's default output, which is full of issues. This provides a far cleaner (and proper) merge of the Guide's leveled-lists.

Mods dependent upon this patch are tagged YELLOW in the left margin of guide mod tables.
