help! "there are files in your overwrite mod"

[mstate803]

im just very very confused about the correct steps i have to take to get rid of this issue, i am using mod organizer and it says make the stuff in the overwrite mod a separate mod or add it to another mod but how do i know what mod to add the stuff to? and ive had the overwrite mod get files in it a lot so i cant just create a mod everytime it does that.... ive tried looking for the answer but everything i find isnt super helpful in being more specific in what you have to do

Depends, what files are there.

If its SkyProc folder from using Reproccer, DRS or something similar, then its safe to delete. If you used tes5edit for esp merging and created new esp, then you can drag it over to related mod or make new one. If its Racemenu tri-files, then updating to newer version helps (doesn't create files into overwrite anymore). Same for using CK.

There isn't one rule for all. Those were just few examples.

^. That

 

Also, if it's something custom like FNIS behaviour update, right click on overwrite, select create mod and just name it FNIS patch or something and make sure it's activated.

Where is 'overwrite'?
