if the mod states it's obmm aware (it'll have an extra folder with pre made OBMM configuration) you just need to do the steps you posted and the omod file is built. Once it's done that omod file appears at the OBMM's right window with an icon color: if the color is green no conflict is detect and you can "activate" it, what is the actual installation and the icon goes blue. Remember only blue icon indicate the mod is indeed installed. If the installed mod have ESPs and/or ESMs they will show up at the left window and will be already ticked activated by default and it's just play afterward.

 

If the mod is already omod you need only "Load" and activate it.

 

It the mod is not OBMM aware, you'll need to be sure it can be simply turned into omod, most will be but some ask for decisions and choices and so will need scripting and it'll be beyond the scope of your actual experience level with OBMM. Better you just install that mod second it's documentation.

 

Does not matter if the mod was installed by hand or OBMM, all and every ESP/ESM will show up at the left window and MUST be ticked to work. The advantage OBMM offer in this case is being ease to change the order those ESPs/ESMs will be loaded.

 

In Time: if the OMOD file is red it implicate it have conflicts with something already installed, most of times it's expected and you can go ahead and activate it. If it is black so a very serious conflict and ESP overwriting exist and the mod should be verified carefully BEFORE activating it.

Thanks Nosis! I have ones that are black but on the left Side of the Obmm is arranged correctly. Does oblivion (acutual game) go by the order on the right?

 

Second I have Djinn race mod. When I start oblivion it instantly crashes, its this a load order problem or something with my mesches?

 

thanks for everything :biggrin:
