Much of this will be obvious to anyone who has gone through this process already but it may help a few people.

For those using Nexusmods this is usually not necessary, but learning how to do it is the only way to have a chance of porting any mod to XboxOne. I finally got my mod working on PC and XboxOne, and figured I'd make a quick beginner's tutorial on how to upload a simple texture replacer mod, from start to finish, for Skyrim SE using Creation Kit 2.0. I didn't expect this much difficulty but quickly learned that CK has been buggy and/or awkward to use from the beginning, and not much is ever done about it. What followed was a three-day struggle with working out how to use the Creation Kit and upload mods to while working out why a number of Creation Kit freezes, crashes and dysfunctional mods were the result. It's just a simple texture replacer right? How hard could it be? Someone liked my mod and asked if I would be able to port it to XboxOne. Hi guys, I recently made my first (and probably only) Skyrim SE mod, No More Blurry Constellation Stars (Optional No Galaxies), and uploaded it on Nexus.
