Ive gone through and i believe did the appropriate edits to the.
I cant back out of the menu at all and am forced to reload to a previous save. However, when the mods i download attempt to add items to the armorsmith work bench ( Tnr shoulder lamp and tactical flashlights) the items show no display for model and seems to lock me into the bench as i enter that crafting menu. no problems with either creating items or accessing the armorbench. I downloaded Armorsmith extended and awkcr a while back through bethesda ( Like i said, easy methods) but due to the limitations of the mods i have started going to nexus to grab ones only available there using NMM to add them. I've done little modding and for the most part stayed with the easy methods.
