I found the pattern in the .exe file and it seems to be fine, but I have no idea what's wrong with the first part...I've read what LAROmega said but I dont get what "copying in the entire exploded package, with the modified file" means.


That just means to unpack the main.pak and placed everything you just extracted into the Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition\Data folder.

The game engine logic is such that it loads assets from within the Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition\Data\ folder. Assets can either be stored in a regular file tree, or as a an archive (a .pak file). The game engine prioritizes loading from folders over paks.

Mine worked fine by just moving the file I modified over.

The error you're getting seems to indicate you've corrupted something. It would probably be easier to start clean than trying to find the source. Get the game working again by restoring your backed up files, and then make the modifications.
