How do I merge .esp files?

[BlackkPhoenix]

I have 13 different modders resources that I want to use to customize the Varenlor Manor mod to my liking. Because I do not want to fill up my mod list with resources purely to aid one mod, I want to merge all the resources and merge them into the main Varenlor Manor file. Is there a way to do this without messing up the esp file?

Its really easy work.

 

You load all esp you want to merge to OCS without choosing an active file. Then go to options, combine loaded plugins, and save the esp under a new name. Delete or backup all merged esps (deaktivating will do) and activate the new created esp. Done

 

Have fun

Can also use Tes4Edit, Tes4View, TesGecko and im sure there is one I am forgetting :/

Either way, you should do more than just combine, unless you know exactly what will happen. The two mods should be cleaned first, which can be done with most of the programs mentioned at the top.

I never knew it was that easy. Man, that would have saved me SO much hassle over the years.
