How to mod a mod

[Syphon583]

A while back I created a personal mod that allows me to re-box ammo (as well as restack other items). Currently, I'm also running a certain weapons mod that was created by another author, which I absolutely love. The one thing it does not have, though? a way to re-box loose ammo.

Is there a way for my to alter my mod (or create a separate mod) that will allow my to re-box the custom ammo that is added via this other mod?

Yes, it should be fairly easy if you figured out the boxing part. Just have your mod run after the other mod with the custom ammo. Mods are loaded in alphabetical order, so I always name my personal mods z_xxxxxx.

Run with just the other mod loaded, then in your save folder you'll find a ConfigsDump folder with all the xml files as they have been adjusted by mods. Use those as a base for your altered mod, the same way you originally used the vanilla xml files.

Thanks, I'll give that a go!
