Not using the four add-ons pack

[Craigsters]

I removed the files with extensions Bethesda File Archive, esm and NAM from my game to do with Mercenary Pack ,Tribal Pack , Caravan Pack and Classic Pack sense I never use the weapons, or clothes or canteen from them, there where 12 files in all to do with all four packs that I removed!..

 

I also removed them hoping to easy load time and potential ctd's

 

Is this the best method to totally disable the pack add-ons?

 

thx :cool: Craig

That's sort of overkill, and may actually cause more issues with crashing.

 

It would be far more simple to click the "Data Files" option in the launcher and uncheck all of those files instead, leaving only the main FalloutNV.esm file checked.

Understand that in theory

 

buy there is also a mod to remove these blighters from your game

 

because it seems that they are very insistent

 

and automatically get shoved into your game

 

even if you tell them to bugger off.

The most recent update for NV mucked up the plugin system somehow, and the game loads ALL files regardless of their status in the Data Files menu.

 

The pre-order DLC get replaced constantly by Steam unless you put it into "offline mode."

 

If you want to disable mods, either move them to another folder or create FOMODs to use with FOMM.
