I Lost VATS Bloody Effects. Anyone know why?

[jermboy]

Hi, I recently installed a few mods (specifically FOMM, Archiveinvalidation Invalidated, Underground Hideout v4-4, My mansion Player Home, and Mini Hideout Katana) and since then I noticed in combat there are no more bloody special effects. No more gore, lost limbs, exploding heads, etc, the bodies just go down.

Does anyone know why this would happen? What files might have gotten messed up when placing the mods in the Data folder or a step I might have missed?

If anyone can help it would be greatly aprpeciated. Especially since VATS and all the effects are 90% of the game's fun. I even have the Bloody Mess Perk so you can imagine how boring it is when the bodies just drop.......

Thanks so much!

been alot of this going around lately.

 

deactivate your mods until it comes back

 

then post what mod caused it.

 

Several (in)active threads on this topic

 

so it seems that nobody knows what's causing it,

 

but its getting posted alot

 

so some popular mod has a problem.

disregard i seemed to have figured it out. For those who come across the same problem check your load order in FOMM. Mine was not set right and Fallout3.esm was not first.

Thanks for the tip, I will keep that in mind for the future. the load order was all out of whack for whatever reason. when i re-set it to the proper order it seemed to have returned to normal. My sniper rifle blew a Talon Merc's head apart like a busted zit so as long as that continues I'm good.

If you look at your load order in the fallout 3 launcher instead of FOMM, it goes all screwy. Be careful. :D
