Updating the guide

Before updating the guide perform the following simple steps:
  1. Disable the finishing line.
  2. Use Merge Plugin Hide to unhide all merges.
  3. Pay close attention to the mods name in MO2 when updating.
  4. Hide whatever merges that aren’t regenerated.
  5. Regenerate any merges listed. Make sure for each merge to uncheck then recheck any plugin in zMerge to update its internal loadorder.
  6. Regenerate any Finishing Line stuff listed.
