Thank you! I kept digging and playing around after posting, and managed to find the Creationkit backup files. I never actually knew those were there. Found a good one, re-did the recent changes, and all is right with the world again. Thank you!

So, I Have a nice mod that adds a bunch of NPCs to hearthfire houses. I created a separate little mod that altered their appearances/races. When I made this mod, I correctly went through the steps of making the base .esp file a master in TESVEDIT, then changing it back when I was done. Everything worked great. Just today, I decided to open my addon file back up and fiddle with the carriage drivers, too. This time, though, I forgot to change the base mod to a 'master' first, so Creationkit scrubbed it out when I saved. I realized my mistake, made it a master again, re-opened and re-saved my addon... but now all of the character are registering as [DUPLICATE] in my addon and not overwriting. Is there a way for me to make them read as overwrites again, or else an easy way to copy the changes I made to all of the NPC from the duplicates over to the originals again?
