Contents.About xEditxEdit is an advanced tool for analyzing and editing Bethesda's game plugins. It works by loading one or multiple plugins (.esp), along with their explicit masters (.esm), and displaying their contents in a specific user interface. It provides a clear layout and useful navigation controls to visualize the data of the loaded plugins, as well as powerful editing functions to clean, edit, or even create new plugins for mods and mod patches.xEdit was originally developed by ElminsterAU as TES4Edit, for TES: Oblivion. It then was updated to handle Fallout 3 (FO3Edit) and Fallout New Vegas (FNVEdit). Finally, support for Skyrim (TES5Edit), Fallout 4 (FO4Edit), and Skyrim SE (SSEEdit) was added by the authors: Hlp, Sharlikran, and Zilav.
These different versions of the tools collectively became known as, 'xEdit' within the modding community. Therefore, xEdit is often used to refer to the specific version for whichever game is being discussed.It is important to note that whichever version has been downloaded, they are all the same executable. It's possible to switch from one version to another by simply renaming the executable to the proper name, or by attaching an argument to the executable, which switches the program for use with a specific game.Installing xEdit. PrerequisitesOnly the latest official version of the game for which xEdit is being used for.Installation. Download either the official release on. Developer (beta) versions can be found on.The official topic for discussion is on. Extract the archive, then put this folder somewhere smart.
Using a 'Modding Tools' folders is a good practice. For Mod Organizer users, it's critical to add xEdit to the executable list. If not, installation is already over, but it's recommended to create a shortcut for easy access.Post-Installation: Language SetupIf using a non-English game installation, there is an additional step required to complete the setup of xEdit. This step requires users to launch xEdit and launch a session. Please view the 'Launch and Basic Features' section below on how to do this.To set the language once the session is loaded:. Right-click anywhere in the left pane to bring up the contextual menu. Navigate to Other - Localization - Language - Choose your language.Available options are dependent on the string-translations files found in:.SteamsteamappscommonGameFolderDataStrings.
Notice: This doesn't change the language of the xEdit interface, only the way xEdit deal with String data.To prevent having to modify the language manually each time xEdit is started, it's possible to start with an argument (MO can do it directly, non-MO user have to setup a shortcut). The argument should be: -l:XX.where XX is the tag of the language ( en for English, fr for French, etc.).Additionally, if using xEdit to work with Fallout 4, languages with accents will need UTF-8 encoding support. Medal of honor ps4. To do so, xEdit must be started with the following argument:-cp:utf-8 Launch and Basic FeaturesxEdit is launched by simply double-clicking the icon for standard users, or launching it through Mod Organizer for MO users.It will automatically detect the game folder as well as the current Load Order.Launch Arguments -AllowMasterFilesEditStarting with v4.0 xEdit no longer allows editing of master files (ESMs) to prevent unwanted edits that may cause issues. This parameter allows editing of master files again, however, it must be combined with -IKnowWhatImDoing to be active.-autoloadAdded in v4.0This parameter will skip the Plugin Selection dialog and load all plugins that are active according to plugins.txt. It also skips the ModGroup Selection and automatically loads all valid ModGroups.-autogamelinkAdded in v4.0Implies -autoload. The parameter will automatically activate GameLink in Reference mode at the end of the Background Loader.-B:Path to save backup files.-cp:Set which encoding to use to read STRINGS files.-cp-general:Starting with v4.0 general strings always explicitly use codepage 1252 (ANSI - Latin I). This parameter overrides this coding, where is either utf8 or a codepage number.It should normally never be necessary to override this!

This works even for games that do not have ESL support in the game engine.-quickcleanAdded in v4.0After selecting a single module, the module and required masters are loaded. A filter for cleaning is automatically applied for the selected module only, and 'Undelete and Disable References' and 'Remove 'Identical to Master' records' are executed for the selected module. Loading MenuThe first menu is the Master/Plugin Selection Menu. Closing this menu instead of pressing OK will close the program.This menu is used to determine which plugins will be loaded and analyzed in xEdit. By default, plugins already checked are those plugins active in the load order. Plugins are sorted according to your load order.To select which plugin to load, it's possible to:.
Check/Uncheck plugins manually. Use 'Select All' from the contextual menu to select every plugins. Use 'Select None' from the contextual menu to deselect every plugin. Use 'Invert Selection' to select currently unchecked plugins and vice-versa. Notice: This is not possible to modify the load order from xEdit. Load order should be modified before launching the application.On top of the selection, a 'Search' field allow to highlight plugins name that contain the typed text (non case-sensitive), and set the view to the highest highlighted plugin.This allows the user to quickly choose which set of mods (or which single mod) to load.Most common uses for end-users are:. Use the default selection to check the current load order (in order to spot/resolve conflicts).

Use 'Select None' first, then select a specific plugin to load, or double-click on it for instant-load. Notice: There is another type of dependency that sometimes needs to be addressed which will not load the needed plugins by double-clicking. This is called implicit dependency.Once the selection is done, clicking the OK button or pressing Enter will load the selected list.xEdit will display messages both in the 'Messages' tab and in the footer of the application, while running the Background Loader. Saving MenuThe Saving Menu layout is similar to the 'Master/Plugin Selection Menu', except it only display mods which have been modified during the session, and contains a 'Backup Plugins' Checkbox.To save changes made to a plugin, this plugin need to be checked in the save menu.If the 'Backup Plugins' Checkbox is checked, original plugins will be saved under the 'Data xEdit Backup' folder. (MO users: The ' xEdit Backup' folder will be created in the overwrite.)Plugins backup see their name modified from PluginName.esp to PluginName.esp.backup.
YYYY MM DD HH NN SS where the last part represent the instant the backup got created.Unchecked plugins won't be saved. It allows to cancel manipulations mistakes during the session (unwanted edits on a mod).Using Ctrl + S will save the work done during a session without exiting xEdit.This is useful for long sessions.
Saving won't actually save the plugin with it's modification, but create a 'backup' of the plugin with the changes, following the same convention as the backups created when exiting with the 'create backup' checkbox ticked.

Warning: As the default color is the standard used in related discussions and guides, including this one, it is highly discouraged to modify it.Records Font, Messages Font and Viewer Font:These settings change the font used in the related parts of the UI in xEdit.Default for all of them are:.
font: 'Segoe UI'. style: normal. size: 9. Column width: Set the standard column width for the view tab.
Default: 200. Column width: Set the standard line height for the view tab. Default: 18.Interface. Notice: Those aren't undo/redo buttons, only previous/next! They're intended for navigation only!The location displayed in the text field is formatted as follows:XXPluginName.espGRUP.FormID Where:.
XX is the index of the plugin currently being looked at in the session's load order. PluginName.esp is the name of the plugin currently being viewed. Group is the group of records being viewed. Tree Panel SortingWhen looking for a specific record, it can be useful to sort the Tree Panel table by FormID, EditorID or Name, depending on the information known about the record(s) to find. To do so, a simple click on the desired column header will sort the table.When sorting the table as such, it's recommended to right-click on the column header to bring up the contextual menu, and select Files - Always by Load Order. This way, sorting the table won't affect the order in which plugins are displayed in the tree, but instead sort the records in each of them according to the chosen sorting column.Other options for this contextual menu are 'As Selected' (default), which will sort everything, plugins and records alike, and 'Always by Name', which will maintain plugins sorted in the tree by alphabetical order instead of their load order position.
This last option can be useful to quickly find a plugin in the tree when only knowing its name but not its position in the load order.Navigation and SelectionIt's possible to expand/collapse each plugin to see it's content. This can be down by clicking on the + icon on the left of the plugin's name, by double clicking on the plugin's name, or by pressing → when the plugin is selected.To quickly browse elements in the Tree Panel, it's possible to use ↑ and ↓ keyboard controls to select elements, as well as → and ← to expand or collapse clusters.When expanding a plugin, it display a list of 'records category' called GRUPs. GRUPs can usually be expanded as well. Notice: The following explanations related to the file structure are simplified to allow a quick understanding of what is displayed on the View tab. For detailed information on plugins' structure, read the theThe xEdit View tab is a table.
The 1 st column on the left provide information about the label of each row displayed:. The 1 st set of rows constitute the Record Header of the selected record. Each row named this way: XXXX - Some Wording represent a field, i.e. A piece of information defining the record. XXXX is the signature of this field. Some Wording is a name associated with this signature by the xEdit interface, for easier understanding.It isn't part of the game data structure. Depending on cases, it is possible to see the same name associated with different signature.
The 1 st subrecord of the table, no matter for which type of record is selected, is always EDID - Editor ID. This sub-record define the EditorID of the record (also used and displayed in the Tree Panel). Non-indented row without a signature in their label are irrelevant of the actual file structure. They doesn't represent a field.
They are generated by the xEdit interface to allow easier reading and editing. They either represent a list of similar field, or a pack of field that are usually edited together.While field associated by the xEdit interface to such list or pack are indented in the View tab, they represent a whole field as much as any others. Indented Rows without a signature in their label are simple sub-elements belonging to a field. They doesn't represent a whole field either. The indentation allow to see which field such element belong to. They're displayed on their own line for reading convenience.A block of row following a hierarchical parent-child structure is what is called a node.
A node with no childs is a pit-node, but a node none the less. A node can either be a field, a list/pack of field, or a list/pack of sub-elements belonging to a field. A node differ from a row as it refer to both the parent row and all of it's child nodes. It is an important concept, as in xEdit it is possible to copy/delete/edit nodes as a whole.Other columns are 'plugins columns', they represent the record as it is saved in a plugin.
There is as much plugin columns as there is mod in the load order session overriding the selected record. (minus mod which have seen their record hidden by the user. ).The title of a mod column is the same as the plugin's line in the Tree Panel: XX ModName.espMod columns width can be resized manually, of by clicking anywhere in the View tab and right-clicking to bring up the contextual menu and using options from the 'Column Widths' sub-menu.Options for column widths are:. Standard: Each column width is set to the same standard. The standard is defined in the options' General tab. (default: 200).
Fit all: Each column width (excepted the title column) is adjusted to be the same, modified in order to see every columns in the tab without the need to use the horizontal scroll bar. Fit text: Each column width is set independently, in order to have data fully displayed in each field without being truncated.The entry at the intersection of a row and a column will usually be referred to as a 'field data' or 'data' for short in the following guide.
Depending on which field this data is associated with, it will be of different type. However, xEdit allow to modify any kind of data like a string.Field datas may vary from a plugin to another and are what xEdit is mainly designed to analyze and edit. When two distinctive and independent plugins try to set a different field data for the same sub-record, this create what is called a conflict. The plugin loaded last in the load order is referred to as the 'winner', with a green font color in xEdit, and the other one as the 'looser', with a red font color.Notice: This is't the only way a conflict can arise. Two plugins editing two different fields of the same record will create a conflict as well.

This known as the rule of one.In a similar situation, except where the winner plugin would refer the looser as an explicit Master, this isn't considered a conflict, since the winner is actually expected to modify some of its master's record. The master is then displayed with a purple font color.More information on this subject are available in the and in the section of this guide.Hide no conflicts row FunctionalityWhen browsing through records to detect and analyze/resolve conflicts, it is interesting to use the Hide no conflicts row feature, by right-clicking anywhere in the View tab and checking this option.To re-enable every rows, the same operation will restore hidden rows, 'Hide no conflicts row' behave as an ON/OFF toggle. Notice: Records without conflicts and single records will display as a completely blank View tab.This setting persist between xEdit sessions. Do not forget to turn it off when not needed.' Hidden' FunctionalityIn specific cases, it can be interesting to hide a record from a specific plugin to analyze conflicts and overrides between specifics plugins only, ignoring others.To hide a column from the current View, right on its header and select Hidden.This functionality only hide a single record, not the whole plugin. Notice: When used in the Tree Panel, this functionality can also be used on a whole group, or even a whole plugin, to prevent every records from this group and/or plugin to be displayed in the View tab NavigationTo navigate from one plugin to another in the same record, the 'Jump To' feature from the contextual menu (right-click on the column's header of the plugin you want to jump to) can be used.
It's useful as it will quickly re-focus the Tree Panel on the record in the plugin jumped to, allowing to check which other records from this plugin and GRUP could need the same attention. The currently focused plugin containing the visualized record can be checked by looking at the Navigation bar.To visualize the content of a record referenced in a field data, use Ctrl +Left Click. This will refresh the View tab to display this record's data, and focus the Tree View on this record. To quickly come back to the previous record view, use the previous button from the Navigation Bar.Reference Tab FooterOn the left of the footer is displayed the last line of Information you can find under the 'Messages' tab in the right pane.On the right is a quick link to access TES4Edit's flattr page, where you can donate to ElminsterAU, the original author. Cleaning plugins with xEditPlugins often required cleaning in xEdit to remove unnecessary and erroneous edits from them. GamersPoets explain how to clean mods with TES5EditReading, Analysis and Manipulation Color Code in xEditThe color code in xEdit is designed to make it easy to spot overrides and conflicts in the session.There is two different colorations for each element: the background color, and the text color.Background ColorThe background color of a given element is the same across all plugins. The background color represent the state of this element in the session.White: SingleThis element is only present in a single pluginGreen: Multiple but no conflictsThis element is present in at least two plugins, but there is no conflicts.
For records, this usually means that there is an ITM, or the record have a sub-group which contain different records while its own fields aren't overriden, or that multiple mods use the same injected record.Yellow: Override without conflictsThis element is present in at least two plugins, but only master's data have elements overriden. This means that a plugin make changes to the game by editing some of its master records.Red: ConflictThis element is present in at least three plugins, changes from lower-priority plugins aren't applied in game. The plugin which override changes don't refer overriden plugins as master. This is what most patches such as STEP Patches are solving.Fushia: Critical ConflictThis element is present in at least two plugins, the formID in its master doesn't belong to the plugin's range (it's an injected record, the first two digits of the formID are different than the plugin's position in the load order)., and they're different. A fushia background mean that multiple plugins are trying to inject different records with the same formID.Text ColorThe text color of an element depend on the plugin it is saved in.
It represent how the data from a plugin is affected by others in the session.Black: SingleThis element is only present in a single plugin. It is usually is associated with white background. Can also be seen on fields with a yellow beckground, which indicate a benign conflict, meaning the record will actually be merged at runtime and don't need conflict resolution.Purple: MasterThe element is in its master.Gray: Identical to masterThis element in this plugin is identical to the one in its master. For records, it means that this record is somewhat useless, and is known as ITM.
ITMs are what's cleaned by the automatic cleaning procedure.Green: Override without conflictThis element is overriding data from its masters.Olive: Identical to master but conflict winnerThis element is identical to its master, but override changes from other plugins not reffered to as master. This usually means that an ITM is preventing some changes from another plugin to be applied.Orange: Conflict WinnerThis elements is in conflict in multiple plugins, and the change from this plugin is the winner (i.e. It is the one seen by the game). This means that this plugin have the higher priority of all others plugins editing the same element.Red: Conflict LooserThis element is in conflict in multiple plugins, and the change from this plugin is the looser (i.e. Its changes aren't applied in game). This means that this plugin have a lower priority than an other one editing the same element.Ohter formatingSome more informations can be taken from the text formating in xEdit:.
Elements with italic font belongs to injected records. Elements in bold are elements which have been edited in the current session. Elements underlined are elements referencing an injected records not injected by the same pluginFiltersFilters can be applied to visualize only a selection of records matching specified settings. To apply a filter, right click anywhere in the tree panel and select 'Apply Filter'. Saving and Loading PresetsPressing the 'Add' button will save the current filer settings under the specified name. Notice: A co-file is a file with a name identical to an other, but with a different extension.
Skyrim.modgroups is a co-file of Skyrim.esm.If both PluginName.modgroups and PluginName.esp are present in Data, PluginName.esp is loaded into xEdit, and PluginName.modgroups include valid modgroups, those modgroups will be available in the modgroup selection.This feature was originally intended to allow patch-creators to provide co-file with their patches to prevent xEdit from displaying remaining intentional conflicts.Simple Functionalities Compare To. Add, Remove (Tree Panel) Add, Edit, Remove (View Panel) Compare referenced records in this row. Drag&Drop, Copy as. Worldspace BrowserThe worldspace browser is accessible by pressing Alt+F3 within xEdit.The map is generated with the LODs textures for the visualized worldspace. (by default, LOD32).By right-clicking anywhere on the map, it's is possible to 'Jump To' a Cell in this Worldspace.
This will close the worldspace browser and focus xEdit on the record of the exterior cell selected.
