What is 'Archive Invalidation', and why is it necessary?

Besides that it's a mod, I know that much, I want to know what exactly the operation is. I keep seeing mods that say 'archive invalidate' and similar, and I've looked it up. The only thing that comes up is two mods, and that's it....What is archive invalidation, why do we need to do it, and how do you do it without the mod?

Try giving this a read: http://devnull.sweetdanger.com/archiveinvalidation.html

 

Basically, it's a way to trick the engine into reading the loose files rather than the original files within the BSA archives.

 

You don't need to download a separate mod for this kind of thing anymore. There are options included in the mod managers so all you have to do is toggle it on from one of their menus.
