xEdit Exclusivity is a template.

  • Include for this template: {{xEdit Exclusivity}}
  • Only the portion of the "Details" section in "onlyinclude" tags is included when called.

Overview

This template is so it may be included in several instances in the articles:

Programs and Tools

  • A plain text editor like Windows Notepad.

Detail

NOTE: Do not use xEdit with any "mod organizer" or other "plugin aware" tool open at the same time. While some might be compatible with sharing the plugin with xEdit, others grab the file with a "write lock" to prevent any other program from changing things. Play it safe and give xEdit exclusive access unless you are absolutely positive they are compatible.

According to the TES5Edit Support Forum: "All plugins from the Data folder are sorted into 2 groups by extension (and extension only, ESM flag in plugin's header doesn't matter): *.ESM and *.ESP, then each group is sorted by plugin's file timestamp. Then xEdit loads all ESM, then all ESPs. The order of masters in plugins doesn't affect anything." This suggests that whenever possible, you should move any "false ESM flagged" ESP files to the bottom of the list of ESM files in your load order if you want xEdit to match your game "load order" when it loads or sorts a plugin's master files.
