winstondg Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I have created basic mods and understand the concepts, but have no real programming experience. I would like to take pieces from 200+ mods then put them together my way, for myself to enjoy and be inspired. Best success I've had is with RPFM, using 'copy as override into' to merge .esps and manually moving the data between mod folders, but this gets complicated fast and I generally don't know what I'm doing Looking for experience or suggestions on the best ways to get this done, thanks!

YouDoNotKnowMyName Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Well, taking only parts of certain mods and merging them IS complicated and you need to somehow keep track of what you have merged with what.(Just merging mods is not that "complicated", there are lots of tutorials for it) I would recommend to merge a few things, test if it works, then add anohter mod (or a part of a mod) to the merge and test it again ...That way you can see when things "break".If you just merged hundrets of mods and then tried it in the game, you would have almost no idea of what mod caused the merge to "break". Also, merging mods that that use scripts is generally a bad idea. But I don't know much about merging mods either ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winstondg Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 Thanks for the reply! How about breaking mods apart, any experience with that? For example, adding one gun from a mod that adds dozens, or one script for an item from a game overhaul mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouDoNotKnowMyName Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 No, I have never done anything like that ...But I am sure somebody else knows something about how to do this ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
