Recommended Posts

Hi to all, it's my first time to play TES on the PC and currently im studying on how to properly use the mods i've downloaded. They are all great although the backside is im having problems with it because it keeps on crashing my game and exiting. Can you please give me a few insights about the mods im using, currently these are all the mods installed in my game.

 

Francesco's level creatures mod

Bab Biu Final mod (includes the body mod and the awesome bab trading post)

Natural Environments mod

Enayla's Facial Textures

Improved Facial Textures

DMC stylish Special anims

DMC stylish addon Sword dancer

Armanterium Katanas

Darnified UI (Improved BT mod i believe)

Corean Hair

Babe Hair or Bab Hair

 

My oblivion is updated to version 416?(i really dont remember well but the last numbers are 416) its the updated patch i believe, installed Shivering Isles pack but can't update using the SI patch, only the oblivion patch worked.

 

Also installed Wyre Bash + Python combo and Oblivion Mod Manager though im much familiar with OBMM.

 

When i played my first game, i made an imperial and used bab hair, everything's all right until I reach the end of the sewers where im prompted if I like to edit my character for the last time, after exiting the sewer, it'll load for a few seconds then crash outside of the game with an error message...wonder what mod is conflicting my game. Im trying to use OBMM's mod conflict detector and everythings fine..can you help me? :unsure:

General Load-Order Guidelines

Here are the guidelines that I adhere to, personally.

 

~ Unofficial Oblivon Patch should always be first on the list. The fixes are great, but most aren't essential, so if a mod overwrites them its not a big deal, and the fixes have the potential for screwing up other mods if loaded later.

 

~ Offical Content (DLC's) should be loaded last, until you complete all quests associated with them (that includes buying all furniture for the houses and whatnot). Once they're complete, they can be safely moved up in the list. This is especially important for Knights of the Nine, which will have some fairly major problems unless loaded last (unless you get the UOP for KotN)

 

~ Major overhaul mods (OOO, Frans, MMM) should be loaded near the end. That gives you the most complete experience with any of those particular mods. It also lets you carefully choose which other mods to load afterwards... only move mods that you know will conflict and that you want the changes from. For example, I have Improved Soul Gems below OOO because I know that OOO changes the icons of some of the SG's, and ISG needs to be below to show through.

 

Some people will recommend putting larger mods first, but personally I disagree. There are a number of mods out there that make minor tweaks, and loading after a large mod will end up completely overwriting a chunk from one of the bigger mods because of the way conflicts work in Oblivion (even one minor change will take precedence over the entire record... for example, simply tweaking the speed of a weapon can cause every stat of that weapon to be retained to vanilla levels if loaded later).

 

So basically, it stacks up like this...

 

Oblivion.esm

Unofficial Oblivion Patch

<Minor Mods / DLC's (Post-Completion)>

<Major Overhaul Mod/Mods>

<Mods that specifically conflict with overhauls and need to take precedence>

<DLC's (Pre-Completion)>

 

 

 

Expanded Load-Order Guidelines

I would extend this to include:

 

Oblivion.esm

Unofficial Oblivion Patch

<Weather/Environment/Sound Mods>

<Minor Mods/New Items/Houses/DLC's (Post-Completion)>

<Major Overhaul Mods>

<Mods that specifically conflict with overhauls and need to take precedence>

<DLC's (Pre-Completion)>

<Quests>

<Compatibility Patches/UOMP/Merged Leveled Lists>

 

And a special-case warning for Knights.esp (Knights of the Nine) -- you may not be able to move it earlier than some other mods (some people have had problems after moving it before OOO, for example).

 

That's basically the structure I use and I have 140+ mods working well together.

 

Another way of describing this (posted by DMan77):

....

Oblivion

unoffical patch

Deeper realism mods that add sights and sounds

added content like weapons/items

gameplay changes, like 'must eat and sleep'

The OOO type

the 'new begining' type mod..
