chronosmagus Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 You don't 'activate' mods with the GECK. You simply install mods by placing the files in the /data folder, which is usuall located at c:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\fallout new vegas\data, and the enabling the .ESP in the launcher or preferably FOMM (fallout mod manager). When you load up the GECK to edit mods, simple find the ESP in the list (it'll search in the /data folder for you) and set it to active. It will load all required files and you can begin editting.

FluidFire Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 GECK is for editing / creating mods. You don't need it just to download and use mods. Most mods can simply be unzipped and put in the /DATA directory. Other mods need FOMM to install. If you want to use a lot of mods together you really need to use FOMM as many have specific requirements on load order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
