Resource:XEdit

xEdit is an advanced graphical module editor for Bethesda games. It is a technical tool written by ElminsterAU, used by editors to validate information added to the wiki, add content, and confirm data.

About
The datamining tool works by loading one or multiple plugins (.esp), along with (.esm), and displaying their contents in a specific user interface. All versions regardless of the game accessed are the same executable.

Install

 * Download from here.
 * extract the archive to your folder of choice.

Run

 * To switch from one version (game) to another, rename the file accordingly. For example, to access FO4, right click and select "copy" on the "xEdit" file, and then paste. Rename the pasted copy "FO4Edit" and then double click to open. It will automatically detect the game folder and load order.
 * In the plugin window, check the boxes of what games or add ons will be loaded.
 * The references will build at this point, which may take time and is normal.
 * Once completed, this message will appear in the "Messages" tab and in the footer: [01:00] Background Loader: finished.
 * xEdit can now be utilized, objects found by searching in the Editor ID and Form ID fields.
