In Wrye Bash, I cannot mark these as Mergeable. Any tips? Sorry.

I've had that problem, too (not that I had to create a shaderlist.txt). The problem vanished on its own and my game eventually allowed me to use it after a couple days. Of course, that was just me. I know someone else will kindly help, but I would also like to know the reason for it, too.

Thank you for your help, Hickory. I really appreciate it.

That is good to know. I will bash a patch. But isn't the BC patch arleady supposed to take care of the conflict? That's where this puzzles me.

I told you your BC \ UL \ Patches were wrong, not your load order. It's all about extra steps that you do not have to take with a set up BOSS userlist. Everything gets done with one keypress. But have it your way. And you honestly think the rest of the mods before BC and UL would change everything when a rearrangement of the BC/UL order is what fixed my problem? I'll post it for you.

You don't need to see my mod list to understand how it's set up, especially after you telling me that my load order was wrong. <whoooosh!> I didn't absolutely and completely miss your point. Everything you described to me about BOSS sounds exactly like me just importing a Load Order file in OBMM. Which again, is pointless for me load up BOSS for any reason.

That load order is incorrect. It should be: xul ... BC ... BC-Patch Except I had it that way and the load order didn't work, but the new way did. Explain that one to me. That's what BOSS's userlist.txt file is for. There is no reason to not have your customized load order while using BOSS to order everything else. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of BOSS? Why have my custom load order and have BOSS fix the other stuff which is mainly "unknown" and puts it at the bottom of the list? The one's BOSS recognizes, messes up. So my custom load order fixed that problem. Then I have the unknown mods placed at the bottom which I have to sort out myself anyways. Seems kind of pointless.

I will further look into those. :thumbsup:

People think these early shots look bad..................because they want it to. Qarl's texture pack looks great, but it also doesn't have consistency. Skyrim's early shots look much more detailed than Oblivion. To me, the lighting in games these days make most of the graphics. So even if Skyrim has just decent textures, the lighting system will make Oblivion look like an original Xbox game. Everything is obviously more polished. You all need to see the game in action, point blank period. We'll see how many people will be saying it looks like Oblivion then.

I did that load order, and it seems to be running fine. Thanks. I stay away from BOSS. Each time I use it, it messes up my load order. I use the latest list and all. No offense to the creator(s). I think it's a great idea. I just don't agree with it. There's just too many mods and updates for a program to sort out people's load orders the way it thinks it's "correct". Some things work different for other people. I carefully and manually set up my load order by hand and I get little to no crashes and everything loads just fine. I think I just about completed it with this fix. Also, thank goodness for the importing/exporting load orders feature. {edit} I really appreciate your help. :smile:

Do you mean the patches that come with BC? and if so, a load order such as: BC BC BC BC BC xul xul xul xul xul BC-Patch BC-Patch BC-Patch ? I know there's a separate OMOD file here, but it states it's for other mods that aren't BC and claims that BC already comes with those patches. I'll load my order as you suggested and see how it goes. Thanks for the insight.

I fix one issue, I find another. I have all the Unique Landscapes mods via compilation. Same with Better Cities. UL obviously states that BC should load after the UL's. I've always had it that way. Outside of Cheydinhal is a UL, Cheydinhal Falls. Half of the water was gone and fish were floppin' around everywhere and died. The other half was fine. It was very out of place, though. Better Cities takes care of these problems (supposedly) since it has patches integrated for compatibility. Cheydinhal Falls is one of them. I did a little experiment. I only took one of the UL's being Cheydinhal Falls and placed it at the very bottom of my load order. Fixed it right up. My question remains the same as the thread's title: What's the real load order? Are there certain exceptions and has this issue been brought up before? Are the one's that need patches required to be loaded after Better Cities? Just tryin' to figure it out.

If it's absolutely necessary, then sure. I run OBSEv19. It's stable and seems to run just about everything I need to. I'm not sure of any changelogs between 19 and 20, but I'm presuming not much change. But heck, if 20 runs better, then that would be the one to choose. I'm in no hurry, though. 19 gets the job done.

Wow, old topic is old. Also, OBMM is really good for organizing your mods, enabling/disabling at ease, archive invalidation & maintaining load orders. HOWEVER, in many cases ticking the ESP through OBMM isn't an official way of doing it. Always make sure to open Oblivion Launcher and select the Data Files choice to tick any ESP's you want. Sometimes ticking it through OBMM is fine, but it still won't be ticked in Oblivion Launcher; depending on how the omod conversion installs your mod. When something goes wrong with an OMOD, I usually install it through OBMM and manually add the necessary files by hand to the correct folder locations. When in doubt, examine the mods files and use common knowledge of where they should be placed. It's pretty odd the ESP didn't show up in Oblivion Launcher. Are you sure it wasn't hiding inbetween other mods? At any rate, it seems as if the ESP is enabled, otherwise you wouldn't get those specific textures & meshes to be identified as missing. I'd say it's all about manually adding the folders or try to install the mod again. Never forget to Archive Invalidate. Also, are you sure you didn't copy a 'Data' folder into 'Data'? It's a common thing to do sometimes.

Sometimes FastExit conflicts with certain FPS and Crash Prevention mods. Not always, but for some people. typing "qqq" without quotes in the console helps exit smoothly. Just in-case you have that problem.

I manually edited my load order close to what it was before and it still seems fixed. I'm assuming it was the bash patch. This topic may be closed if that's what's necessary, but I'm welcome to more answers before it closes.

Yes, I installed BC after UL. Update: Not sure what fixed it.... but here goes. I remember a little while ago I created a bash with Wrye. I uninstalled Wrye. The Bash folders still existed, however. I deleted the folders. I just now installed Wrye again and it gave the option to load BOSS. I didn't know loading BOSS would mean it would automatically update my load order. I was kinda upset about that. I'm not sure if it's the load order or me deleting the bash, but outside and inside of Bravil seems to be working just fine now. Question: it could be either one, right? Does deleting the bash patches reset it? or was it BOSS that fixed the load order? I didn't appreciate BOSS doing it automatically, but if it fixed it then great. I just hope it doesn't mess up my load order to where I'm going to crash to desktop all the time. Manually doing my load orders by hand has pretty much perfected my CTD's to be nonexistent.

{edit} sorry, I think I meant to post this in the Mod Troubleshooting board. I understand there might be an incompatibility issue between Bravil Docks and Barrowfields (wait, they're different right?). My Better Cities is up to date and my Unique Landscapes is a compilation mod. I was looking on Nexus for any compatibility patches and the patches I did find say they were not needed if Better Cities is installed. I guess pics would help, I'll get to that if needed. Pretty much, outside of Bravil, especially near the gates have see-thru grounds and blurry textures. Directly in front of the main gate. If I happen to step into one, it gives the message of "You cannot go in that direction. Turn back.", even though my boundaries are disabled. Once in that position, I cannot move from that spot even with collision off. I can fast travel away from it, but that's it. So I enter Bravil and everything is out of place. Hollow grounds, floating doors, etc. I have Better Cities at the bottom of my load order with UL just before it. So Better Cities is last. Is there something wrong with the load order or do I need to change anything around? Also, do the patches really help for Better Cities? Thanks in advance.

Hey, thanks for the words.

Banned in January and I'm still not allowed in. Whatever happened to automated ban appeal lifts? I refuse to believe I'm permabanned over hi bye chit-chat. If an admin or mod would kindly lift the suspension, that would be great. Sometimes I have questions and wanna come in chat and ask something I can't find the answer for. Yeah, Google can be a pain sometimes believe it or not. I'm not trying to say anything out of place that would keep me banned, however, it sounded like someone was just butthurt that day. What's the deal with airplane peanuts? etc.

Usually spammers come and go, but the ones who repeat themselves like okei and his other usernames tend to give up when people either 1) don't feed the troll, or 2) have caught on and keep fighting the good fight. They most likely move onto other sources to do the same thing. Just a simple plain & bother, all while spreading spyware/trojans at the same time. Looks like we won here.

oh, look. a new member posting the same thing. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=37141

a recently added file called "faster boot" seems to be some spyware. Apparently it seems this user tried to upload it before and is his/her's 2nd attempt. The file is currently being investigated by mods, it says. It's a very suspicious .exe file. It doesn't even load anything. If you look in your task list, it labels itself as "winupdate.exe" Stay away! Also, I was banned in chat on my first day joining here in January. I'm still banned. I don't believe in permaban over nothing. Please lift it!
