RC8051 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Ok, here is my problem: I've installed some mods into my Data Folder and everything looked good to me. Then I checked the mods in the Launchers Data Files section. But when I start the game it crashes almost instantly. Anyone a suggestion why this is happening when I activate the mods?

Fraktyl Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Some things to try to help with trouble shooting: 1) Turn off all mods. Launch the game. Does it run? Yes? Go to next step. No? There are other issues besides mods, what are your system specs2) Are all your mods in the \data directory Yes? Go to next step No? Reread the install instructions. All files will be under the \data directory, and you may have to create directories under that depending on how the mod came packaged. 3) Check the dates on your mods. The falloutNV.esm file has to be the oldest. The way the game handles mods is oldest file in the list is loaded first.4) If all the above check out. Start enabling your mods ONE BY ONE. Run the game. 4a) Did the game crash upon startup? Yes? This mod is your culprit. Check for updates No? Try the next in the list. There are other tools you can use. Currently there's no New Vegas mod manager. I would guess one is being worked on, until then you'll have to be careful with your timestamps. There is also FNVEdit which will allow you to modify the .esm's .esp's directly. If you have specific questions about that, you can ask in the other forums. Hope this helps.
