RepConn Basement Black Screen

[ConJohnner]

Hello people, I've run into a problem.

During the Jason Bright quest you have to enter the basement of the RepConn facility.

After entering the basement there's a brief loading pause then i come out the other side, but with only my hud visible. No pipboy visuals either, just the sounds. I can however bring up the middle mouse click wheel menu from Lazarus mod i believe.

 

Also animations for burning show up, as in, i shoot a flamer at my companion and just the flames show up. Looks pretty cool not gonna lie.

 

Here is my mod load order via LOOT. I have a bunch yes and none have been merged.

I'll attempt to disable mods and see which one is the issue, but it'd be nice to see if anyone else has had this problem/knows a solution.

 

Also, i've had no problems with anywhere else so far with these mods. I've only been to places you would normally find on a normal play through though.

Try moving the deactivated plugins out of the Data folder first. Even though they are inactive, the game engine loads them to check if they are required by other plugins. This can cause problems.

 

That basement is intentionally very dark. Try "catseye" or some other nightvision enhancement before assuming you have a problem. Though the Pipboy visuals should not be affected. That does seem like a conflict, but might be due to the inactive plugins pushing you too close to the plugin cap.

 

Re-read the install instructions, and the top comment for "Clean-Deluxe FNV". You have to have the ESM, and should only have the "All DLC" ESP file from the main package, without all the individual DLC files. I'm really surprised LOOT let you sort things that way without complaint. I would expect "Clean-Deluxe FNV.esp" to come before any compatibility patches, and to complain of a "missing master" with the ESM deactivated. Same for the FCOMaster.ESM.

 

Edit: I'm not familiar with "Clean-Deluxe", but considering it's age (2012) and that it compares itself as essentially the same as "Better Game Performance" and "Performance of the Gods", suggest you look at the "Towards Game Stability" section of the wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article.

 

With all those "compatibility patches" you really need to be using a "bash/merge patch" file. Please see the 'Third Rule: The Rule of One', 'Smaller Plugin Cap', and 'Merge Patch file' sections of the wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article.

Thanks for the detailed reply Dubious

It ended up being as simple as an unchecked esp in my fomm.

You're right though i should merge patches and what not, i've tried using merge plugins standalone, but i'm not sure how to integrate it with fomm.

Also about the performance mods, clean deluxe was the only one that seemed to get me better fps. although at that point my load order was not optimal so maybe there's a better performance mod.

 

Anyways i ended up having other random problems related to the steam launcher and nvse launcher, so i decided to clean re install.

 

Thanks for your help.

You don't need or want to integrate "Merge Plugins Standalone" (MPS) into FOMM. MPS is a much later tool and FOMM doesn't know about it and it shouldn't matter. The resulting "merged plugin" files are "just another unpacked, non-FOMOD plugin" to FOMM.

 

Note that MPS does not produce the same sort of patch file as a "merge patch". It does not resolve "record level conflicts". They are two different beasts. Please see the wiki "Merged Plugin Guidelines for Personal Use" article first.

I'll definitely have to read that wiki and learn about merged patches bashes and plugins.

I'm not too concerned about the plugin limit, but would like to shorten my load time.

Thanks for the information and guidance.
