I wonder if anyone combines their game-play altering mods together? (Via S3pe) I usually merge plenty of cc such as CAS stuff or Buy/build stuff, but never those others (I attached an image as an example of what kind of mods I'm talking about)
If someone does merge that stuff, have all those mods usually worked fine?
So, anybody there ready to share some advice about this

I have done in the past but updating was rather irritating this way, so I stopped. Overall, it worked fine, as long as you keep a backup of which mods did you merge with what. Otherwise finding out why different merged packages might conflict is a pain in the proverbial backside.
However, if that's all the mods you use that aren't merged, it won't make a difference anyway. I think it only gives a boost once you have more than a 100? Someone else might know better.

It works fine to merge mods, I've done it for ages. I always keep the single files separately though.

I never merged major mods that I know will need updating with new patches, but I have merged others that were already stable, and no issues. Now that the patch situation is more or less done with, I'll probably merge the rest as well.

Oh those I listed as example are just half of the mods I use, there are too many to show them all I considered merging them so the game doesn't have load so many package files since all my other cc is merged except those.


Exactly - I plan not to update my mods anymore since I won't patch. Though if I did decide to do so I'll just make sure to keep backup folder where all those mods are separately like 310175 mentioned.


Huh? which mods are "single files" this sounds unfamiliar to me.

A single file is a file which you haven't merged.

wow, I sure asked a really stupid question.

Anyway, thanks for the advice guys, it's much apreciated
