Okay, so I just attempted to load both Dragonborn and Skywind in the Skyrim Creation Kit. However, although they finished loading, Dragonborn's Solstheim is completely empty, devoid of any NPC's, buildings, trees, anything. It's just an ash-covered land mass and nothing more. It's fine when Skywind isn't loaded, but Skywind is loaded along with Dragonborn, the Creation Kit shows nt only an empty Solstheim, but an empty Apochyrpha! I'm a little too cautious to save any plugins using both files because, well, what if I load the game with Solstheim and Apochrypha both empty!? I do not feel like taking that risk.
Anyone else have this problem? And I hope I posted this in the right section. If I didn't I apologize. But this is an issue. If you try to create a plugin using both Skywind and Dragonborn to, let's just say, smply clothe the guards in Bonemold armor. What if when the Creation Kit (or worse, the game) doesn't show any guards? Or any buildings? Or anything?
Does anyone know if this is fixable?
This is because the CK gives array errors when loading too much data. The same thing happens when trying to load Skyrim.esm and Skywind.esm. We have to use a stripped version of Skyrim.esm, and I'm guessing we'll have to do the same for Dragonborn.
To do that, just load Dragonborn.esm in TESV Edit (MAKE A BACKUP!!!!!!!) and then delete the cell and worlspace records. Then make sure to switch back to your original master for when you go ingame.
I'm closing this issue.
