ArtNile Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Hello! I recently installed Skyrim again and tried to get into the modding scene this time. I've spent the last 2 days familiarizing myself with modding rules and basic principles and choosing about 30 mods that I want to use. Now I've reached a critical point (of no return?) where I would need help from some experts. I've played around with LOOT and mod descriptions to achieve an optimal load order for my mods. The next step would be to create a bashed batch via Wrye Bash, after which I should (theoretically) be able to play the game. I would like to receive some feedback on my load order. From what I have heard, after creating a bashed patch managing your load order becomes far more difficult, so I would have to finalize my load order at this point. If you can spot any fatal mistakes or non-optimal ordering, then I could really use some help! :smile: A list of my mods; exported with NMM: A Quality World Map and Solstheim Map - With Roads User interfaces 10.04.2015 17:54:42 8.4 8.4 IcePenguin Climates Of Tamriel - Weather - Lighting - Audio - Climates Of Tamriel - Dragonborn Patch Overhauls 11.04.2015 20:42:06 3.1 v3.1 JJC71 Climates Of Tamriel - Weather - Lighting - Audio - Climates Of Tamriel - Sounds Overhauls 11.04.2015 20:42:22 3.1 v3.1 JJC71 Climates Of Tamriel - Weather - Lighting - Audio - ClimatesOfTamriel-Dawnguard-Patch Overhauls 11.04.2015 20:42:25 3.1 v3.1 JJC71 Climates Of Tamriel - Weather - Lighting - Audio - ClimatesOfTamriel-Sound-Dawnguard-Patch Overhauls 11.04.2015 21:15:15 3.1 v3.1 JJC71 Cloaks of Skyrim - Cloaks of Skyrim 1-2 Clothing 10.04.2015 20:13:07 1.2 1.2 Noodles Cloaks of Skyrim - Cloaks of Skyrim 1-2 Dawnguard Clothing 12.04.2015 17:09:51 1.2 1.2 Noodles Convenient Horses - Convenient Horses v5_0 Animals, creatures, mounts & horses 12.04.2015 15:55:46 5.0 5.0 Alek Dual Wield Blocking Animations - Dual Wield Blocking Animations Animation 12.04.2015 17:20:35 1.0 1.0 Daljo Dual Wield Parrying - 00 Dual Wield Parrying SKSE 3_1 beta Combat 12.04.2015 17:18:44 3.1b 3.1b Borgut1337 Enhanced Blood Textures Visuals and graphics 12.04.2015 12:24:35 3.6a 3.6a dDefinder Follower Commentary Overhaul - FCO - Follower Commentary Overhaul Immersion 10.04.2015 19:01:39 1.3 1.3 terzaerian Footprints - Footprints v1_00 - Legendary Visuals and graphics 12.04.2015 11:18:35 1.00 1.00 jonwd7 Frostfall - Hypothermia Camping Survival - Frostfall 2_6 Release Immersion 10.04.2015 18:46:25 2.6 2.6 Chesko Immersive Sounds - Compendium Audio, sounds and music 11.04.2015 21:22:33 1.12 1.12 lazygecko moreHUD - AHZmoreHUD_v2_1_3 User interfaces 10.04.2015 17:52:11 2.1.3 2.1.3 Ahzaab Morrowloot 4E Edition - Morrowloot 4E Edition Collectables, treasure hunts and puzzles 10.04.2015 18:52:00 v4.3 v4.3 Fuma Perkus Maximus - Maximum Perk Overhaul Overhauls 12.04.2015 21:50:19 1.2 1.2 T3nd0 PerMa Compatibility and PaMa Patches Patches 12.04.2015 21:54:33 1.2 2.6.1 Raulfin PerMa Compatibility and PaMa Patches Patches 12.04.2015 21:54:06 2.6.1 2.6.1 Raulfin PerMa Compatibility and PaMa Patches (PCaPP) - PerMa Survivalism Patches 12.04.2015 21:54:54 2.6.1 2.6.1 Raulfin Project Reality - Climates Of Tamriel-V3 Overhauls 10.04.2015 18:31:33 3.1 v3.1 JJC71 Pumping Iron - Dynamic Muscle Growth - Pumping Iron - Dynamic Muscle Growth v1_0_1 Immersion 10.04.2015 18:42:27 1.0.1 1.0.1 Gopher Real Shelter - Full Release - Real Shelter 1.4 Beta 4 - Install this 1st Immersion 10.04.2015 20:05:39 1.4b4 1.4b4 ThreeTen Real Shelter - Full Release - Real Shelter Patch Template - Beta 4 - Install 2nd Immersion 10.04.2015 20:06:32 1.4b4 1.4b4 ThreeTen Real Shelter-Frostfall Tents WIP - Frostfall Tents - .9a2 - No Small Tents Immersion 10.04.2015 20:12:46 0.9a2 0.9a2 ThreeTen Realistic Needs and Diseases Immersion 11.04.2015 13:29:27 1.9.10 1.9.10 perseid9 Skyrim - Enhanced Camera - Enhanced Camera Immersion 10.04.2015 19:54:54 1.1 1.1 LogicDragon SkyUI User interfaces 10.04.2015 17:51:44 4.1 4.1 SkyUI Team Ultimate Combat - Ultimate Combat Combat 12.04.2015 14:19:47 2.52 2.52 tktk Unofficial Dawnguard Patch - Unofficial Dawnguard Patch Patches 12.04.2015 15:55:11 2.1.1 2.1.1 Unofficial Patch Project Team Unofficial Dragonborn Patch - Unofficial Dragonborn Patch Patches 12.04.2015 15:55:16 2.1.1 2.1.1 Unofficial Patch Project Team Unofficial Hearthfire Patch - Unofficial Hearthfire Patch Patches 12.04.2015 15:55:21 2.1.1 2.1.1 Unofficial Patch Project Team Unofficial Morrowloot-Skyrim Overhaul - UMSO Ingredient Crafting Modular Add-On Overhauls 11.04.2015 20:43:00 v1.00 v1.50 Archiphres Unofficial Morrowloot-Skyrim Overhaul - Unofficial Morrowloot-Skyrim Overhaul Overhauls 10.04.2015 17:36:31 v1.50 v1.50 Archiphres Unofficial Skyrim Patch - Unofficial Skyrim Patch Patches 10.04.2015 19:47:31 2.1.1 2.1.1 Unofficial Patch Project Team Weapons and Armor Fixes Remade Bug fixes 12.04.2015 17:46:50 5.1 5.1 kryptopyr My load order (I haven't created a bashed patch via Wrye Bash yet);

UMSO's mod description states: Remember to load in this order:Frostfall (wilderness survival mod, would recommend)Morrowloot (this mod is an unofficial expansion to Morrowloot)Overhaul (main/dragonborn)OverhaulDG (dawnguard)UMSOperkUMSOsmithingPerkDescriptionsUMSOingredientCraftingUMSOfortsUMSOenchantBashed PatchASIS (should be used for improving AI and NPC potions *only* when combined with this mod, would recommend)Perkus Maximum's (PerMa) mod description dictates the order of the mod's plugins somewhat vaguely. Because of that, it seems that corresponding plugins' ordering is all over the place as well. Perma's mod description (FAQ) states: The fake master: As early as possible.The patch: As late as possible.The small modules: In between; laster is usually better, unless you want to override certain features. But that is for you to figure out.Wintermyst: Before PerkusMaximus_Mage.esp Two of the installed mods: Perkus Maximus and Real Shelter have additional patchers (Perkus Maximus even has a different mod page for this) that you need to use to achieve the mod's functionality. I installed these patches immediately after downloading and installing the corresponding mods. However, I just watched the GamePoets Michael's video on Wrye Bash and Bashed Patches that stated (1:32) that these kind of patches should be installed AFTER the bashed patches have been made. It seems I am kind of borked in this area. I suppose I could just run the patch installers AGAIN and hope that the functionality will still be present. Just in case, I am also including the Real Shelter: Frostfall Tents recommended load order (as stated in the mod description):RealShelter.espRealShelterFF.esp (this file)[Any RealShelter Compatibility Patches]RSPatch.esp So yeah. I included as much information as possible. If any of you have any suggestions about my situation or any helpful tips, I would be really thankful. I guess I could also use some help on my next daunting task: successfully making a bashed patch. Thanks! :smile:Dan B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
