fingerschnipp Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) Hello Wrinkly, the new solution is just a wonderful invention by Bethesda. Unfortunately this makes the new system necessary. But I have a question, as i hear there is a new synchronization between two files essential, the loadorder.txt and the plugins.txt. A redundancy. Would it not make sense to put the inactive plug-ins in a bashedpatch_loadorder.txt file, only them?As the bashedpatch.esp of WB is the only tool I know to use inactive plug-ins, wouldn't it make sense to have only a list here, which contains the inactive plug-ins in the right order? in fact no synchronization would be necessary between plugins.txt and bashedpatch_loadorder.txt ( the name is just used by making it functionality obvious). I may lack knowledge about other tools currently using inactivated plug-ins, and I do apologize if so. PS:Why couldnt Bethesda allow to inactivate plugins by a simple ";" or "#" (modern programming conventions do it this way in general) Edited March 6, 2012 by fingerschnipp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other utilities need to show total load order (and allow editing of it) too, so a universal file is necessary. Otherwise you'd have Bash and NMM, etc. telling you different things. 2. Plugins.txt does allow '#' comments, but is Windows-1252 encoded so can only hold a subset of possible filenames, which isn't good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megiddon Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 How does one make merged files appear in the load order? I myself have been running boss, copy pasting the list into loadorder and plugins.txt then I set them both to read only so that no changes are made. But I am curious how the + files of files merged in bash patch should appear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog5769 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I am a little lost with all the information that is out on what needs to be done for load orders and the files that have to be edited. I currently use NMM, BOSS, and Bash. Is there a step by step guide out there that is current? What do I need to do, what files do I have to edit, and where can I find them? Thank you.

I did seem to find some kind of solution. when running wrye bash; copy paste the list into both plugins and loadorder.txt. If you're using bashed patch, put a ## in front of the green files. This seems to give me a "purple" save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentester Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) possibly I'm dumb...but I still can't find either of these text files. I run Windows 7 and I have Skyrim loaded into my D drive not my C (as that's a small SSD) I have made all files and folders visible but no plugins.txt or loadorder.txt anywhere. No idea where to try next so I guess I will just have to use the in game load order and hope for the best. :ermm:Ignore me..I just found them :rolleyes: Edited March 14, 2012 by gentester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
