How can I pack mods into *.BSA?

[Xenoramos]

Hello! As topic name said, I want to know, is there any possible way to pack mod's folders like meshes and textures into BSA file? I want to do so, because it's easier to keep them on PC for reinstallation in packed state. I'm not talking about script-heavy mods, just armor/follower mods.

You can use Creation Kit for armor mods, for NPC CK won't automatically include the facegen files so it is easier to copy all mod files to a folder, replicate the data mod file structure and use Archive.exe from Skyrim folder and pack; this method gives you more control on the files than CK.

 

There are some tutorials about that, this one covers both procedures: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLAVpjjfJKw

 

Good luck!
