Difference between revisions of "Mod Merging"

There is currently no tool available for easily merging Skyrim mods.  No tool that works as quickly, easily, and effectively as TES4Gecko does for Oblivion.  Hopefully a programmer write a utility for merging Skyrim mods at some point.

Open up the two or more mods in the CK at the same time, with the file you want to merge the data to being the active file.  Select an item you want to copy and give it a new name.  When asked if you want to create a new object, say yes.  Be sure to copy every little detail that you want to merge.  Let's say you want to merge your NPC into another mod.  You may not be able to just copy the actor object into the other mod and get away with it.  Your actor might arrive naked, confused, broken, and helpless.  If your actor has custom armor, custom AI packages, custom dialog in a custom quest, carries a custom sword, and belongs to a custom faction, you better copy all of those objects into your mod too.
