Step optimized vanilla textures

So I've followed the guide, the revisited guide, and I'm at the "Optimizing The Bethesda Textures" part. It says to reorganize your load order to look like as listed.* Vanilla Optimized* Dawnguard* Dawnguard Optimized* Hearthfire* Hearthfire Optimized* Dragonborn* Dragonborn Optimized* HighResTexturePack01* HRDLC1 Optimized* HighResTexturePack02* HRDLC2 Optimized* HighResTexturePack03* HRDLC3 Optimized* Cleaned Vanilla ESMs* Skyrim Script ExtenderIf I understand this correctly, the Dawnguard, Hearthfire, Dragonborn, HighResTexturePack01, HighResTexturePack02, and HighResTexturePack03 are all the old dirty/unoptimized files, the originals.1. Why would I want them enabled at all when I have the optimized textures separated and cleaned ESMs in the Cleaned Vanilla ESMs folder being loaded?When I enable everything, it's showing in Mod Organizer that Dawnguard_opt, Hearthfires_opt, and Dragonborn_opt, the optimized textures, are being overwritten completely by the highrestexture packs, so none of those optimized files are even being used.2. If that's the case, why the eff did they have me optimize them in the first place? Or was that just optional in case I wasn't using the high res packs?3. Why do the HighResTexturePack files all say Unmanaged in front of them now? Do I even need them? Can I ditch those BSA files now that I have optimized textures?

There is a subfolder called 2The 1K textures will be inside folder 2Create a subfolder in the Working folder and call it "1" and make sure that it is empty for now.As a final check make sure that there are 2 subfolders in the Working folder called 1 and 22. Extract the Mod ContentsExtract TOP's contents (the mod archive) into folder "2".Leave folder "1" empty for now.3. Extract Vanilla Textures Using Archive2Download Archive2 (if you haven’t already).Open Archive2 and select File > Open.Navigate to your FO4 Data folder and open a vanilla texture.b file (e.g., Fallout4 - Textures1.ba2).Once Archive2 has loaded the contents of the .ba2 file, extract the contents to folder "1" inside the Working folder.4. Use Robocopy to Replace TexturesIn the Working folder, Shift+Right-click and select "Open command window here".In the newly opened CMD prompt, type the following command exactly (including spaces but without quotes):robocopy "C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\Working\2" "C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\Working\1" /s /xlReplace Owner with your Windows account name.Press Enter to run the command. There should be a flood of text as the specific files are automatically replaced in folder "1".If you don’t see any output, recheck the steps to ensure everything is set up correctly.5.

Add the Optimized Textures to the New BA2 FileIn Archive2, select Archive > Add Folder....Navigate to folder "1" and select the Textures folder.7. Save the Repacked BA2 FileSelect File > Save As....Save the file with the original .ba2 file name (e.g., Fallout4 - Textures1.ba2).8.

Clean Up Between Each BA2 FileAfter saving a repacked .ba2 file, go into folder "1" and delete everything before extracting the next vanilla .ba2 file.10. Important ReminderIt is crucial that you do each vanilla BA2 file individually.11. Replace the Original BA2 FilesAfter repacking all the .ba2 files:Move the original .ba2 files to a backup folder on your computer.Replace the originals in the FO4
