Update Files: Should be installed with its parent files in a single mod.If the mod page has more than one Main File to install, each should be installed AS A SEPARATE MOD in Mod Organizer 2. Some mods will not let you proceed with the installation properly unless other required mods have been activated. All required custom LOOT rules can be found on the Finishing Line page. DO NOT run LOOT until directed to do so on the Merge Page as it will also help prevent any confusion that may arise over LOOT sorting errors that will be fixed with custom LOOT rules at the end of the guide.There are a few 'best practices' to keep in mind while building this guide: In these cases, the asterisk means to delete all files matching this pattern. Throughout the guide, you will find many places where you are instructed to remove files with a * in the path. These errors will be fixed later in the guide.

When going through this guide, I strongly advise following it to the letter.
