Since it won't let me copy and paste onto here, I just put the new load order on a google doc so you guys can see. tinyurl.com/FOMMload

Sorry for being a pain. >_< I tried to run boss for FOMM and it said it couldn't locate the master list. I tried checking for an update as it says to, but every time I click that, FOMM crashes.

It's a little long, but here you go. Here's everything exactly as it appears in FOMM right now.

That's what I do already. Dragging them and dropping them. It's still freezing, so I'm guessing it's a little beyond that. Though I'll go through FOMM and rearrange the mods accordingly. Edit: So I read up a little more than I had before on the subject and I've got a pretty good grasp on how the load order works and why it's important. However, how would I know which mods go first when they're seemingly unrelated? Does it not matter in that case?

So then the biggest problem is the installation order. Can this be fixed manually as easily as going into the FO3 folder and changing the order in which the mods are listed?

How often does Fallout 3 typically freeze or crash for you?

Yeah, I don't know how this thing works at all. ._. Could this also fix the mesh issues I was having on my other post?

How do I change the load order once they're in FOMM?

Well, usually I download the mod and updates if it has it, add them into FOMM, then activate it. I'm guessing now that I've been doing it terribly, horribly wrong.

So usually, I'd go about thirty or twenty minutes of playing without a crash. Now, it's crashing every thirty seconds or so and I have to replay the same part over and over. Right now, I'm nearing the GNR building but not in the plaza yet. I'm running a good number of mods, but I've even tried disabling a few of them in spite of the fact that they were all working before. I can't play with the game in this state currently.

What if I use FOMM to install mods? Will that help?

There was a mod like this back in Skyrim, but it's been way too long for me to remember. The basic idea of this is that all the buildings, small and large, are still easily connected to the outside world. You could see in and out of broken windows, enemies can siege a building held by their foes, etc. The idea for this game around when I was running through Downtown DC and I was ambushed by a few super mutants armed with rocket launchers, assault rifles, and miniguns. Obviously taking a lot of fire and having low health, I ducked inside the nearest small shop. Went through a loading screen and suddenly, with the war raging outside gone without a trace, the immersion was killed. How could would it have been to have ducked into the store but have to use the shelves and walls for cover?

Hey, everyone! I'm new to these forums, so forgive me if this question has been asked before. I've had this problem before, especially with the mod "Kikia's Equipment" (it adds in a new shop with a bunch of new items) but it's shown up in other mods in the past. The basic problem is this: the new items can be bought and used, but when they're supposed to be visible in-game, they're replaced with a giant red diamond with an exclamation mark in the center. I do have FOSE if that helps at all. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
