decompressing BSAs...

So I have read several times that manually decompressing the default BSAs can increase loading times and performance dramtically. My question is this: Can I do this now, after I have installed nvamp on top of several other mods? Will it overwrite all the textures I have achieved through mods when I decompress the files? Is this something I have to do with a clean install and no mods to get it to work right?

It depends where you decompress the BSA's to.

 

If you unpack to the game data folder, it will not only slow down your game, it will also overwrite any texture or body replacement mods you have.

 

If you unpack to a folder outside the game directory, it won't have any change on performance, won't overwrite anything, but you'll have to manually move files into the data folder if you want to use them in the GECK.
