Modding FO4 for the first time in over a year

How's it going gang, happy Thanksgiving!

So! I decided to buy FO4 GOTY cuz I never got to enjoy any of its DLC which despite the... lackluster outcome of FO4 looks very good :) I was wondering, do you guys think I'll be okay JUST using NMM to mod the game? If I recall I did that last time, but I don't remember if I used LOOT or not. Also does LOOT still sort of work itself out? I remember modding Skyrim and using LOOT to help with the load order and it sort of just did it's own thing. I plan on downloading only a FEW mods and would like to know if you think I should avoid NMM or if you could greenlight its use. So here are the mods I'm gonna DL by title...

 

-Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/4598

-Improved Map With Visible Roads - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/1215

-Enhanced Blood Textures - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/212

-Armorsmith Extended - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/2228

-Mod Configuration Menu - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/21497

-Fallout 4 Script Extender - http://f4se.silverlock.org/

-Start Me Up - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/18946

-See Through Scopes - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/9476

 

 

I'm assuming I'd put the load order like this in NMM.....

-Unofficial Patch

-Start Me Up

-Armorsmith Extended

-Improved Maps

-See Through Scopes

-Enhanced Blood

 

If anyone has any tips or a good (not half hour long video) to help out with these few basic mods. That'd be solid. Thanks everyone!

Enhanced Blood, both the standard (scripted) and basic (textures only) has caused replicable CTDs for me in big battles. I can't explain why, but it consistently did. Not apparent in a vanilla game or early game, though. I say test it out first before making it a permanent addon.

 

I could have easily blamed one of the monster overhauls I got (SM Redux, Raider Overhaul, etc.) but I had those mods before I tested Enhanced Blood and they never caused me CTDs, but when I applied Enhanced blood on a fairly modded playthrough, the crashes started happening.
