3.Explain

The functionality of the mod is very simple. When compressing formIDs in SSEEdit you will get a log of all formIDs that are changing. After saving the log, you can check the source code files that now have changed IDs and you want to redirect those files to the new FormID. As far as I know, there are only two Papyrus functions that cause problems when compressed. AddItemMenu uses one of them, Game.GetFormFromFile.

menuBase = (Game.GetFormFromFile(0x3319, "AddItemMenuSE.esp") for UIMenuBase)

is our original code. Note the 0x**** formID, you need it. Now search in the formID compressed log (CTRL-S). You will find this line:

[00:00]Change FormID [01003319] in file "AddItemMenuSE.esp" to [01000802]

Now we know that this line must be rewritten as

menuBase = (Game.GetFormFromFile(0x0802, "AddItemMenuSE.esp") for UIMenuBase)

If you have any questions, I've included the source code in the downloadable file. If you still have questions, please feel free to PM me.

• Explanation

What the mod does is very simple. When compacting formIDs in SSEEdit, you'll get a log of all the formIDs being changed. Saving the log allows you to then check in the source code files for which IDs are now changed, and you'll want to redirect those to the new FormID. There are only two papyrus functions, from my knowledge, that cause issue when compacted. AddItemMenu uses one of them, which is Game.GetFormFromFile.

menuBase = (Game.GetFormFromFile(0x3319, "AddItemMenuSE.esp") as UIMenuBase)

is our original code. Note the 0x**** formID, you'll need it. Now do a search (CTRL-S)  in your formID compression log. You'll find this line:

[00:00] Changing FormID [01003319] in file "AddItemMenuSE.esp" to [01000802]

Now we know that this line must be rewritten as

menuBase = (Game.GetFormFromFile(0x0802, "AddItemMenuSE.esp") as UIMenuBase)

I have included the source code in the downloadable files if you have any questions. Feel free to PM me if still in doubt.
