If I DDSopt my textures, can I skip the HRDLC in step 2.F. ?

To clarify, I optimized Dawnguard, Dragonborn, Hearthfires, HRDCL1, HRDLC2, HRDLC3, and STD.

 

Then, in order:

 

* 7z all of those individual folders.

* Move all 7 of those BSAs out of the Data directory

* Move all of the 7z archives into Wrye Bash

* Install

 

So, do I install the NexusMods HRDLC Optimized mod then, if I already did it myself?

I'll keep it out for now...

 

Right now my problem is I've moved the Dragonborn/Dawnguard/Hearthfires BSAs OUT of my Data directory, and replaced them with the respective 7z files. Now, in Wrye Bash, those .ESM files are red in the mod list. Is that normal?

Alright here goes. I've moved Dragonborn, Hearthfires, Dawguard, and SkyrimTextures BSAs back into the Data folder.

 

I've uninstalled ALL of the STEP mods.

Launched to make sure it works

I'm currently re-installing ALL of the STEP mods.

Then I'll run the GenerateFNIS, and the Skyproc patch.

 

Hope this works...

Okay, everything seems to be running fine.  Played 3 hours last night without a crash.

 

I decided to leave out SMIM for a while, since some people were reporting problems.  But, I added it today, and here's what happened:

I also installed Tobe's SMIM patch, and the ELFX SMIM patch.  Everything's in the right order, but when installing SMIM, those metal (iron?) textures are missing...

 

Here's my mod list:

Apparently you forgot to include the modified ini for DDSopt from the wiki guide. This texture got corrupted, because it wasn't skipped as it is supposed to. Had you used the updated ini from the guide, you wouldn't have had the issue in the first place.

Just curious' date=' if the original BSAs are needed, why does the guide say to move them out?

If you followed the steps in the current version of the guide you don't need the Skyrim textures BSA or the HRDLC BSA, and you do need the DLC BSAs. You should have archive files with the optimized textures from Skyrim - textures and the HRDLC BSA. In addition you will have archive files for the optimized textures in the DLC BSAs. You don't need the three HRDLC esp plugins either.

Oh man...

 

I just looked through the guide, and it wasn't entirely clear that I needed to download a NEW ini.  

 

Does this mean I have to optimize ALL of my textures again?

No. You can just copy the original versions of these textures (which are in Vanilla Extracted) on top of the ones that were optimized. You can copy them to the "Vanilla Optimized" folder and then rearchive the files, or you can just copy them from where they are in "Vanilla Extracted" directly into the same location in the 7zip archived optimized texture folder (this will work quite easily as long as you followed the instructions to create a non-solid archive; if not it takes longer). You won't typically have all the textures included in the DDSopt.ini file, so don't worry about the ones you don't have.

 

The need to use a modified DDSopt.ini file is mentioned in Setup of DDSopt here, in DDSopt Configuration here, and in DDSopt Initialization File here  in the guide.
