Patches, xEdit, and what's necessary

[Venlafaxin]

Hey folks!

 

So, I'm using Horizon with -a lot- of compatibility patches (particularly for weapons).

So, my question is: Are all the patches really (in my own personal load order) necessary, or can I copy/deep copy the patch contents into the existing ESP, without issues?

 

Thanks in advance!

To give an example. I have Remote Explosives installed alongside the associated Horizon patch.

Loading these two up in xEdit, I can see the Horizon patch for it has edits under two categories. These are:

"Constructible Object"

"Weapon"

 

Now, deep copy (as override) will make RemoteExplosives.esp dependent on Z_Horizon.esp.

 

When that is saved, it should be safe to remove the Remote Explosives Horizon patch, right?
