Are you using a mod manager, such as NMM or FOMM? If not, then you should - the default game launcher is unsuitable for a modded game.

Reddit is not what I would consider a reliable source for mod info - they tend to go off topic within two or three posts and the trolls will jump in with misinformation. Yes, I do look at reddit. But not for mods. :tongue:

 

1. If you have a pirate version, and it doesn't work - that's very likely the problem.

2. FONV is a steam exclusive game - and is kept up to date by steam - if you are not up to date it may not work - not the fault of the mods.

3. Many mods require something else to work - On the Nexus there is a description that usually includes information on what else may be needed - If you don't read that information you will not know. Other things needed may include NVSE, One or more of the DLCs, some other mod.

4. Not every mod is compatible with every other mod - Read the mod description to see what it changes - if some other mod is changing the same things - they will very likely conflict. And either one will overwrite the other, or you will crash.

5. Load order can be important - some mods need to load before others

6. Patches - some mods require a compatibility patch to work with some other mods.

Modding is not a download and install and it works kind of thing - you actually need to know a little bit about what you are doing. Or you WILL become frustrated and probably rage quit.

 

Mod managers are not required, but are recommended - especially for neophytes - but no manager is perfect - and New Vegas was made well before the Nexus Mod Manager came out - so not every mod will install properly using NMM. You can usually get more install info from the mod description or the Nexus forum for that specific mod (EVERY mod on the nexus, all 99,129 as of this morning ) have their own separate forum just for discussing that mod and any problems with it.

And i dont know why i read the description of the mods etc.

 

And yes i have a legitimate version. I hope someone can help me with this.

NVInteriors has two files at least. The NVInteriors Core and NVInteriors Combo. Get them and you'll have the entire mod. You can also just install them with NMM's package manager or download with manager button. In your load order make sure the Core loads first.

 

As for ILO it should install simply because it come as a FOMOD same thing use the NMM package manager or Download with manager and it will ask you what options you want to use.

 

I don't know about the other mods.

Weapon Mod Expansion (WME) and Weapon Mods Expanded (WMX) are incompatible with each other. If I had to chose one... I would chose WMX because there is more support for various other mods for it. However the WME author has recently been active again, so maybe he will make up to date compatibility patches for other mods.
