...and I think I see the problems on my own: forgot to install NVSE, and two of the companion mods use Lings. Seems to work now.

Because I can't bring myself to play a Fallout without modding it to the very bleeding edge of stability. It's a sickness.

I talked to Gary outside Megaton, but he can't fix the problem -- it's affecting K-9, and I can't talk to him at all. :( How would I go about altering the Jessi/Kelsey mods?

All righty, here's the new order. Seems stable so far. (I'm also running NMC's lite texture mods/minimum bumpmaps, and Dimonized T3.) I'd like to run Mothership Zeta Crew, for the lulz. Will that pop this build like a soap bubble? EDIT: Also, WMK and UWWUT. Finally, everyone says to make a merged patch with FO3Edit, but both times I tried that (albeit with previous flawed configurations) it murdered my build. I mean, everything seemed fine until I made the patch, then nothing I could do would stop it crashing on load. Not even using FOMM to delete all mods and roll FO3 straight back to vanilla! I had to delete the FO3 directory and reinstall from scratch to get it to run! This happened TWICE! Is there really so great an advantage to having a merged patch that I should risk butchering my game again? EDIT: Spoke too soon. Conflict detected -- form list NPCFollowersLIST. Conflict detected -- Star Paladin Cross object script. Sheesh. EDIT AGAIN: Are the FOOK2 Hotfixes necessary or not? I tried BOSS and it claims they're out of date. Thanks!

Thanks to you both. I decided to go with FOOK -- it's a hard choice, but honestly I'm more attracted to FOOK's features than FWE's. Still working on a new build, but that'll have to wait until morning. EDIT: Should I drop MMM as well? Is there a better compatibility patch?

So the FWE-FOOK merger modpatch is... iffy at best? I should have known... Hm. Of the two, which conflicts least with all those OTHER mods? :) EDIT: Off the top of my head, FOOK is harder to work with as it's too big for FOMM to install and I have to drop it in by hand...

After several days of beating my head against the wall I managed to achieve a stable mod order that lets me keep just about everything I want and not crash the game on loading... but while it runs, it does tell me that there's one or more conflicts involving follower behavior and my ability to give them orders. So here's my mod order, and please help the noob?
