Can you make a bad bashed patch?

Hi guys, I've been wondering if I follow a tutorial on how to make a bashed patch, can I do it wrong because of sexlab mods etc?

I wanted to follow this guide

Well you might be better off following a guide that is for Skyrim rather than Oblivion. There are a zillion video guides out there as well.

I made one bashed patch that would ctd my game every time I ran it a while back. So, I guess the answer is yes. But, that was only once out of hundreds of times.

Yes, It is possible to do so. I learned that the hard way.

 

1. If you use the SkyProc Patches, you MUST deactivate the generated files, like Patchus Maximus.esp, ASIS.esp and Automatic Variants.esp, before rebuilding the bashed patch. Otherwise the menu of Skyrim might never stop loading. Don't forget to reactivate them again, after you rebuilt the patch.

 

2. If you use merged .ghost fiiles, because you use more than 255 mods, and decided to use one big patch instead you need to sort those .ghost files at their correct load order positions, before rebuilding the patch, Wrye bash does that NOT for you. So load "LOOT", look there the files should be, and put them in Wrye bash manually at those positions, then rebuild the patch. If you don't do this, the changes from these merged fix files will be missing your game. Yes, I know that is a pain in the ass, but you need to do that.
