Game Crashing from bad mod load, noob reinstalling, my plan and your i

[DreadwizardDM]

Hello and thank you for taking the time to look at my post. I love mods! Problem is that I might have had some conflicting ones that crashed me, so I uninstalled and just reinstalled. Here is my system specs and plan of attack.. please let me know what you think and feel free to advise me.

 

SPECS:Operating System: Windows Vista™ Ultimate (6.0, Build 6002) Service Pack 2

BIOS Date: 05/19/09 12:44:57 Ver: 08.00.15

Processor: Intel® Core i7 CPU 950 @ 3.07GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.1GHz

Memory: 3062MB RAM (note on RAM I actually have 6 gigs of DDR3 tri channel)

Page File: 1033MB used, 5314MB available

 

DirectX Version: DirectX 10

DX Setup Parameters: Not found

DxDiag Version: 6.00.6001.18000 32bit Unicode

SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio

ATI Radeon HD 4890 1gig GDDR5

 

 

Game= Fallout 3 and Pitt and Operation Achorage.

 

Sorry for Wall of Text

 

Plan of attack:

1. Install into non default directory C:\Fallout3 ((off the retail DVD))

2. Install Pitt and Anchorage (off retail dvd))

3. Install any official update patches.

4. Install Archive Invalidation Invalidated

5. Install FOMM

6. "try to install FOSE".. I am having trouble understanding the script extender use. I did not have it installed before and after a few dozen extra mods today the game wouldnt load.

7. Install the automated Mod Load Order utility with XML export to FOMM.

8. Install the Games for Windows Live "KILL" tool.. dont know if I will need to do this because I installed to non default location and have FOMM.

 

 

Now some questions..

1. I assume you can only have ONE type of a body mesh in the game for a given gender?

 

2. Do I avoid clothing / armors that say to use a specific body mesh if im using a different one?

 

3. Do I really need FOSE? if so should I be launching from a shortcut to FOSE or use FOMM to launch the game?

 

4. How can I tell what mods are actually conflicting short of removing them all and manually installing them one at a time?

 

5. When it prompts to overwrite a non vanilla file should I do it?? or just leave well enough alone?

 

Thank you in advance for any advice or tips you can give me.. especially in regards to FOSE.

 

I will try and post my mod list of what I would like to use later.

 

THANKS!!! :thanks:
