Why don't you split your actor, devices, and other stuff into different .rtes? Then put them together for the final thing. A easy way to change filepaths are the old B18 to B19 converters.

Little off topic, but so thats why my comp crashes when I play oblivion for too long.

Anyway I can imagine the frustration of modding kind of. Just imagine converting the apocalyptic towers with a 4 minute loading time(poor hair, I had nothing else to take my anger out on. ).

Also we're getting a bit off-topic ain't we.
