Hello,

 

I've installed a few mods for Fallout 3 but I'm having the same problems that I did with mods in Oblivion. I've modded Skyrim pretty heavily and that works fine, but when I go to Fallout 3, using NMM, the body mod, the eyes, the hair, the custom textures for clutter/ landscapes, don't work or show up really weird. Any texture I make myself works fine, it's just the ones I download that don't work properly or don't work at all. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

The most likely reason why you're getting pink eyes and whatnot is the same reason as why it also happened with Oblivion.

 

Most of the mods released here (and on the Oblivion Nexus) were released long before the NMM existed. Most of those mods are best installed manually. (best to consult the mod's description page/readme on how to do that or just download it manually and see for yourself)

It's neither a problem with NMM or a problem with those mods by the way. If an automated tool like the NMM does not (yet) exist, then why adjust your mod's file structure so some automated doesn't have any problems installing it?

getting pink (or black) eyes, face, hands or other body parts means you're using HQ textures and you're running out of VRAM and are close to CTD, to counter this I recommend using ENB Boost (even if you don't use an ENB) which frees up more Video Ram during play.

I'm using a pretty beefy computer. Would I run out of VRAM even if I have a really good computer?

Thank you! I will install them manually and see if that works!

sure, it depends on the ammount your video card has on board, you can use the secret NASA Mars Mission central computer with fifteen CPU's a zillion gigs of Ram it won't matter, if you run it with an integrated Intel Chipset GPU you're still going to run out of VRAM if you use HQ texture replacers like NMC's and such.
