Thank you so much for this video, I’d reached 255 mods and wanted more and spent a week trying to choose which ones to leave out, because every other merging tutorial just confused me but thanks to this one I’ll be able to install enough mods to turn my pc into an IED if I try to run Skyrim
Side note to anyone struggling with missing textures (Fallout 4 in my case) : Under General Assets tab in the final settings, you should copy assets as well. Thanks for the tutorial!
YES IT'S HERE!! FINALLY HERE!! Love you gamerpoets man you're the best!! Please keep zmerge coming!! I need to make more room in my load order to get ready for beyond skyrim and the mods that will edit them!
another thing to consider when choosing which mods to merge is how often they're updated. everytime one of the mods in your merge gets updated, you'll have to redo your merge from scratch
Honestly this sort of depends. If some mods have less critical updates, "fixed neck seam on Boomboom Robe," they can probably be put off on updating for a bit. One can also just use profiles to group the mods if using vortex, which keeps the merges organized to their types. For example make a profile and shove your armor mods into it, and when one updates you just update and then remerge that profile.
inb4 somebody comes looking for help with skyrim mods four years from now when this is the only relevant tutorial. In all seriousness tho, what are the odds this video is released TODAY, which marks day three of wrestling with my modlist 😮
i LOVE this channel! literally everything i try to do for games your channel has it. I use to have to search and click in and out of videos and now i just automatically come to your channel and browse when i need to do something because it seems like something you'd cover and you always do! i appreciate you
Hadn't messed around with making merged patches in a few years so I needed a good refresher course, instead I got a great refresher course. Thank you so much for this, it was absolutely perfect.
you know... I've been playing skyrim for 10+ years, and your tutorials are opening my eyes for the first time. For the first time in 10+ years i understand some things that have been lost to me. Great. Comprehensive. Understandable. CALM and throughoul. Please keep up the great work
Hey brother your sweet sultry voice has taught me many thing in my days and I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are an excellent teacher.
I stopped paying attention to the instructions because I just needed time to adjust to that voice. My body was not ready. Casually gonna play the rest of your vids in the background.
For the first time in the past 6 years of modding Bethesda games, I have come across a simple solution to a what I considered severe and difficult issue, all thanks to you. Your videos and tutorials are incredible, I can't believe I didn't find your channel earlier!
The main strength of this whole channel is how the stressful process of modding Skyrim becomes bearable and lighthearted. Thank you for the Modding ASMR, sir!
Wow this is awesome, thank you so much for doing this! I have not hit the 254 point yet so I won't be using this all just yet but thank you for letting me know that I didn't really need it... YET!
Extra tip for MO2 peeps: in the Tools Plugins menu (the one with the puzzle icon) there is an option called "Merge Plugins Hide". using that option will bring up a list of merge files. selecting one and hitting 'disable all' will take any .esp that is a part of a merge and hide it from the load order by changing its extension into nameofthemod.esp.mohidden. Helps tidy up the load order and prevent redundant plugin shenanigans. To re-enable any hidden plugin either use the aforementioned tool again, or for a specific mod just right click on it in the Main list, select 'open in Explorer', then delete the ".mohidden" portion of the esp. MAKE SURE YOU DELETE THE PERIOD *AFTER* .ESP! If you've done it right the plugin should pop back up in the load order when you refresh MO2, but you might have to toggle the mod. Also keep in mind that MO2 typically won't remember where in a given load order the mod was after it gets unhidden.
Thank you so much for this tutorial, truly. I've finally run out of stuff to easily ESL-ify, and I'm so glad I'll be able to keep on expanding my modlist. :)
I really hope the plugin limit won't be such a pain in the ass in TESVI :( Also hope they improve compability for different body types. Outfit Studio is amazing, but I get a lot of clipping with stuff thats not designed for CBBE :( I absolutly love having a ridiculous amount of mods, gameplay content and outfits. I am at 2400 mods with a stable game based on Wabbajack - Project Skyrim but I really started to struggle squeezing more into it xD
GP you are great. Your voice is pleasant and your guides allow me to play the game i love. Thanks to you making th emodding and thus my life easier I am grateful. Thank you very much for your great work. Keep up the good work.
I'm having a little issue, hopefully someone will see this! I have all my MO2 mod stuff set up customer per the original MO2 installation video you put out. My paths are as follows: Base Directory: C:/Games/MO2 Organizer Downloads: E:/MO2 Downloads Mods: C:/Games/MO2 - Mods Caches: C:/Games/MO2 Organizer/MO2 - Data/webcache Profiles: C:/Games/MO2 Organizer/MO2 - Data/profiles Overwrite: C:/Games/MO2 Organizer/MO2 - Overwrite I went to set up the Integration settings with Mod manager: Mod Organizer 2 MO2 instance: Skyrim Special Edition (that's the one listed in MO2) Mod manager path: C:\Games\MO2 Organizer Mod manager mods path: C:\Games\MO2 - Mods (I thought it was weird one set uses "/" and the other uses "\" so I tried switching it up and it's the same thing) When I copy it over and set it up, there's nothing that pops up and it's just blank.
I feel like I'm in an abusive relationship with my PC at this point watching a video to extend my number of mods beyond 255. I mean I kinda feel bad for it but you wanna know what feels worse? Not being able to pay taxes in skyrim.
I just realized the plugins tab for merging has a CTRL+F to pop open a search box.. that saved me a lot of time manually looking over the list to find the plugs i wanted to select :D but ty for video :D
Just wanted to say a HUGE HUGE THANKYOU Michael! GamerPoets videos have been complusory viewing when modding for years, but the new ones are clearer, more entertaining, and sometimes include puppies! Brilliant! Making the switch to SE finally, so I appreciate the guidance. Lots of virtual hugs.
Dude my first ever youtube comment goes to you. I just got a new pc and the next day this vid shows up. Thank you for your hard work through the years it is extremely appreciated. Time to spend 300 hours modding Skyrim again!
Vortex users! Ghost those plugins! It helps with mods like simple item spawner (what I use for VR) or add item menu. Otherwise the load order will have a bunch of plugins in slots that aren’t actually being used (even if disabled) and it confuses those mods. Tbf I don’t know if it actually confuses add item menu, because I don’t use it, I’m guessing the mechanics are similar. But you can still ghost either way.
Recently started using zMerge and the moment when you get to 6:16 & realize there is no search bar in the plugins tab for the 1.3k mods you have.. Time to binge some music for 2hrs!!! Never the less thank you for the tutorial!
I installed it again the other day too. I've never really used any of the "big mods" for graphics/textures etc because I found it frustrating, but this time I decided to give them a try and this video helped me a lot to get my game running :) (And WOW this game looks amazing. And on my new laptop, the loadtimes are almost instant--I don't even have time to read the text!)
Was genuinely surprised by the quality of this video. Great voice, oddly entertaining for a tutorial video, and so quick and easy. Thanks for making this :)
dude - THE QUALITY OF YOUR VIDEOS ARE TOP NOTCH! i just stumbled into modding Fallout: New Vegas a few days ago and knew nothing about the 'modding community'. your videos are SO spectacularly done!! ive watched several of them several times, both for the info, AND b/c they are so engaging. WOW. thank you. I'm *blown away* that you don't have a minimum of a couple hundred thousand subscribers...
This channel is consistently the most thorough, helpful, and professional one helping guide me through the intricacies of Skyrim modding. Thank you sir.
Funny how I first looked into merging many years ago when I first looked into moving over from LE to SE, and found your old merging video (plus a couple extras). Now, after returning to SE after the Creation Kit updates finally stopped, I found myself right back here again. Good work, dude! Appreciated it back then, appreciate it today as well.
holy mother of god your voice. incredibly helpful, thank you so much. look forward to hearing you explain things I have no real requirement to understand.
Searching for my mod file path taught me that instead of putting it in a seperate folder as i intended, i put in directly inside the mod organizer folder.... i already have mods installed so i guess i'll live with it ^^ Thanks a lot for everything you're doing, i finally got the courage to mod skyrim properly and your tutorials helps a lot
YOU ARE THE BEST!!!! If I had any money, I would give you some. Your tutorials are top notch quality. You are a pro at this. Very few people have a knack for the succinctness that you do.

This is the 2nd time I've commented on one of your videos. So you've gotten 2/5 of all my comments. That's how good you are. And probably just as many subscriptions. You've definitely earned it. Live long and happy my dude.
one of the most useful youtubers! i might not be very smart at all when it comes to modding but you sure do make it a hell of alot easier to understand
@@gamerpoets Don't worry always watch on UA-cam they sit on an external storage drive in my cupboard, supporting useful community mods/videos is always my first priority!
You are legit the most helpful youtuber when it comes to SSE modding. I'd been looking on tutorials for how to merge plugins cause I went over the 255 limit. Thank you so much for your hard work!
It's quite ironic that I just got back into Skyrim modding, wasted countless hours and probably reaching a few days now with downloading mods to see what works and what doesn't. Now I've yet again hit a new limit of plugins but my hunger for more is not yet quenched, find this video after a day after I looked at the Dyndolod video. It's a surprise to be sure but a welcome one.
What to merge? Rule of three + 1 - no conflicts (SSEEdit, load all mods, apply filter for conflict (selected items only)) 2 - mods merged must not have mcm menus 3 - mods merged cannot have navmesh records (check for "Navigation Mesh Info Map" in SSEEdit) (4) - mods merged cannot have .dll files (typically SKSE mods) (5) - try never to merge masters that have many dependencies, or make sure to pack them all in Just gathered this watching GamerPoets and SinitarGaming's videos on the topic, figured I'd share
Before this video I have been trying for hours on end to trying to understand merging and doing it the old way and just couldnt get it working for my setup in MO2. Now with this video the entire process took less than 10 minutes. God bless you GamerPoets
Thanks for your help. I think you and gopher helped me, by far, the most. And i frikkin love your voice. "IF you havent reached your plugin limit, close the program - stop it" :D
You don’t understand how long I’ve looked online for a video explain how to do merges for mods! This was so helpful! Thank you for the video! Brilliant work! Thank you! Saves me so Mandy headaches for reaching the plug-in limit because of the gun mods I had lol :) thank you once again for the video ! Your a god send lol
bruh this is literally the best tutorial i have ever seen, so comprehensive and easy to follow, no matter what mod manager you use! And you have a great voice, very soothing. (and if i would have watched the zEdit installation video before, i would have know that in order for zMerge to detect my plugins, it needs to be added as an executable to MO2.... i am sooo dumb xD)
I think I am gonna download a bunch of random apps and commission this guy to do tutorials simply because it's so awesome listening to him explain stuff :D
Woo, thanks for the help, my first question was answered inside the first minute or so and the rest was all very useful. Especially the bit about not merging things that other mods are reliant on, that might have caused me issues if I didn't realize.

another thing to consider when choosing which mods to merge is how often they're updated. everytime one of the mods in your merge gets updated, you'll have to redo your merge from scratch
That's a good point... but don't update your mods mid game.... same as don't add mods mid game unless you know what you're doing :)
@@gamerpoets well sure, but if you have so many mods you need to start merging them, you're probably going to spend a lot of time testing everything

@@gamerpoets haha, there will always be dumb-dumbs, but mods from my huge load order see updates on the nexus almost every day
Honestly this sort of depends. If some mods have less critical updates, "fixed neck seam on Boomboom Robe," they can probably be put off on updating for a bit. One can also just use profiles to group the mods if using vortex, which keeps the merges organized to their types.

You are legit the most helpful youtuber when it comes to SSE modding. I'd been looking on tutorials for how to merge plugins cause I went over the 255 limit. Thank you so much for your hard work!
:) welcome
It's quite ironic that I just got back into Skyrim modding, wasted countless hours and probably reaching a few days now with downloading mods to see what works and what doesn't. Now I've yet again hit a new limit of plugins but my hunger for more is not yet quenched, find this video after a day after I looked at the Dyndolod video. It's a surprise to be sure but a welcome one.
What to merge?
Rule of three +
1 - no conflicts (SSEEdit, load all mods, apply filter for conflict (selected items only))
2 - mods merged must not have mcm menus
3 - mods merged cannot have navmesh records (check for "Navigation Mesh Info Map" in SSEEdit)
(4) - mods merged cannot have .dll files (typically SKSE mods)
(5) - try never to merge masters that have many dependencies, or make sure to pack them all in
Just gathered this watching GamerPoets and SinitarGaming's videos on the topic, figured I'd share
Before this video I have been trying for hours on end to trying to understand merging and doing it the old way and just couldnt get it working for my setup in MO2.
Now with this video the entire process took less than 10 minutes.
God bless you GamerPoets
😊🙏
You are just the coolest channel on YT man. Love your content so much. You make modding Bethesda games so easy.
Honestly one of the best Guides I've seen in a long time.
That was one of the cleanest and best tutorials i've ever watched.
Thanks for your help. I think you and gopher helped me, by far, the most. And i frikkin love your voice.
"IF you havent reached your plugin limit, close the program - stop it" :D
You don’t understand how long I’ve looked online for a video explain how to do merges for mods! This was so helpful! Thank you for the video! Brilliant work! Thank you! Saves me so Mandy headaches for reaching the plug-in limit because of the gun mods I had lol :) thank you once again for the video ! Your a god send lol
Always smile when I see a new video in my feed =)
=)
"ESL Mods don't count towards your limit" is the single most beautiful thing I have ever heard thank you
Well, they all count as 1 slot (combined.. so like 100 = 1 ) ;)
Your videos are truly a God-send. Your editing is so simple yet so genius.
like i have never seen such a professionally done modding tutorial video
thank you so much. I remember your voice and not understanding a fucking think 8 years ago. 26 now, stable load order, perfect timing.
bruh this is literally the best tutorial i have ever seen, so comprehensive and easy to follow, no matter what mod manager you use! And you have a great voice, very soothing.
(and if i would have watched the zEdit installation video before, i would have know that in order for zMerge to detect my plugins, it needs to be added as an executable to MO2.... i am sooo dumb xD)
not dumb = ) Thank you for your kind words.
You're amazing, GamerPoets, I don't know what I'd do without you.
I think I am gonna download a bunch of random apps and commission this guy to do tutorials simply because it's so awesome listening to him explain stuff :D
man i just love you. such a nice guy and so informative, and no useless blabbering
😊 🙏
Woo, thanks for the help, my first question was answered inside the first minute or so and the rest was all very useful. Especially the bit about not merging things that other mods are reliant on, that might have caused me issues if I didn't realize.
You always have the best tutorial vids to follow! I'm kinda slow, but its so easy to understand
Thank you. Attempting my third try at Modding and Merging. This was a great refresh and clarification.
Thanks for this! I have played and modded Skyrim for years and newer did the extra step to ensure stability, until now.
an overview of what all these tools do and how they relate to one another would be really helpful
i just made my first merge,...
i put 50 SLab mods in a merge. Everything working awesome.
You and your voice deserve a medal.
