VIitS Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 I have been using xEdit since Fallout 3, for both conflict resolution and just tweaking mods in general (such as if I don't think this mod-added weapon is doing the right amount of damage, or think that item is too light/heavy). And with the release of Fallout 4, I began making and releasing actual mods. The only time I ever touch the Creation Kit is if I absolutely have to, 99% of the work is done in xEdit. I would never have made a mod without xEdit, and the modding scene for TES/Fallout games would never have gotten nearly as big as it is without this amazing tool. If you are an avid mod user, please try and support further development of this tool, even if it is just $1-2.

dukeman Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 Interesting interview! He likes commodore 64 games! I like this guy. Thanks for xEdit! It is masterful tool.
Deleted42537105User Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 This has been the backbone of my modding the last couple of years and I would be quite lost without it now. I've even used it to completely create some personal mods from scratch that I thought would be way beyond my skill to do. There is still much to learn about this and I can't say thank you enough.

calscks Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Elminster has simply developed the greatest tool in such a large modding scene. Without it many mods cease to exist and the expansion of the modding community would have certainly slowed down. Edited January 12, 2019 by calscks
fftfan Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 A true modding Hero! :wub: Thanks so much for xEdit!! :thumbsup:My own mod has hit multiple points where what I needed to do was going to be extremely difficult, extremely tedious maybe or even outright impossible in the Creation Kit, yet Elminster's xEdit was able to solve it like literal magic. I would have had to redo Navmesh multiple hundreds of times, the time for that would massively outweigh the time spent doing everything else. xEdit allowed the ability to copy Navmesh between Statics, something that is literally, 100% impossible to do in the Creation Kit.With Bethesda becoming increasingly unreliable or not caring anymore, perhaps the Modding Community will entirely rely on xEdit for TESVI & Fallout 5. Bethesda's recent decisions make me question whether we may even get a CK at all in future games. Right now it's probably safe to say that xEdit improves the game experience for millions of players by enabling the enhancement of or creation of many mods, thereby leading to many more files on Nexus & Bethesda Net for Xbox One players.
