Odd HUD glitch

[mosdeftho]

Hello, this is my first time posting a troubleshooting request on nexus, so please be kind ;D

 

After plowing through all of Gopher's fallout 3 videos multiple times over, I finally got my game modded to an acceptable state with FO3 standards such as FWE, MMM, Ironsights and WMK in addition to more cosmetic ones, everything has been working dandy so far, until I encountered one last glaring error in Springvale Elementary.

 

 

 

A weird HUD glitched graphic started appearing by my ammo and CND meter. In this screenshot, it is shown as o2, but would flicker between that, some sort of meter graphic and a messy corrupted looking image, possibly mapped in some way to my cursor as one would always show up when moving close to an interactable container.

 

Given that everything else had been near perfect up to this point, one can tell something like this would instantly break immersion. I've looked all over the place for similar cases, assuming this to be some kind of DUI, A or Ihud screwup, but couldn't find any relevant info on the matter. My load order is as follows:

This load order garnered pretty much no crashes at all with what I was running, even with 20th century weapons (which was the mod I wanted to play with in the first place), just the HUD bug outlined previously, I know I am using a few older compatibility patches, such as FOIP over blackened, which is due to the 20th century weapons mod preferring FOIP for compatibility with FWE and MMM. My particular version of 20th century weapons is version 5.12 enhanced with xcalibr and the reborn pack as well as some after the fact compatibility and merging patches (notice I don't need any v5 ALIVE esps). I don't think 20cw is the main problem, as its issues tend to be memory based, but out of all running mods, it has the most capacity for "trouble" I'd assume.

If I had to guess however, this would probably be something to do with the install order of my UI patches, or possibly even the ironsights mod as one of the flickering graphics appeared to fire whenever I'd sight up, assuming my supposedly airtight load order isn't a piece of poop. Any help or counsel on how I'm running things would be greatly appreciated, I only just got into modding on PC, but its damn good fun.

First, your DLCs are out of order.

 

They should be:

Anchorage

ThePitt

BrokenSteel

PointLookout

Zeta

 

This means the your DLC plugins are out of order. The DLC plugins need to go in the same order.

 

You could reduce your load order by using the compatibility patches offered by BlackRampage: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/18173/?

 

You must first read and understand the requirements before installing any of the Blackened patches.

 

Making these corrections may or may not solve your problem, but they won't hurt.
