How much is too much ?

Hello there,

 

I was browsing the nexus to grab interesting mods, since I only played vanilla, and then I figured I may have a problem later: I didn't browse half of the nexus yet and i'm already at 100+ mods of various size and effects.

So now, I fear that even without conflict with the mods, the game is going to die because of the overload, making my PC slow, freeze or crash every two minutes.

 

So, in your opinion or tests, how many mods can you play with at the same time without creating space time meltdown ? How smooth your games are ?

without conflicts, even with 100 mods installed, the game will run at vanilla speeds (or faster if you downsize textures etc).

 

some people are able to run the game with over 150 mods installed.

 

i myself use around 70 at any one time - i uninstall ones i am bored with as i go.

 

there are various ways you can limit conflicts between mods,

 

using FOMM with FOSE installed is essential and FO3Edit might be needed to create a merged patch.
