Help me get Perkus Maximus working with my load order?

[Deleted1790188User]

Hello! I hate having to ask this but I'm having trouble on my own and can't seem to figure this out. I want to give Perkus Maximus a try, but while some things register [Wintermyst in MCM menu, the change from one-handed to light weaponry] things like the Wayfarer tree or change from Pickpocket to Dexterity aren't. I've followed the instructions for installation/patching, but it still doesn't seem to be working and I suspect a mod conflict or load order problem, as I'm starting a new game every time I test it. I've been using LOOT to organize it, but to no avail.

 

The solution might be right in front of my face, but I'm not seeing it. Thanks for any help.

Remove Project Ultimatum, it the only thing I can think of.

 

Also:

You have all three cut throat merchants on.

There is a mod like Acquisitive Soul Gems, but a SKSE plugin, not a esp.

[Deleted1790188User]

Dang - I tried removing Project Ultimatum, but now I get a CTD upon logo with no error message and can't figure out why. I've redone my load order and the patch, but now the patch is giving me the error of 'thrown exception.' I'll keep fiddling, but any further advice is hugely appreciated.

 

As for the cut throat merchants, odd, because in my NMM I only have one activated - the other two are inactive and unchecked. And I'll look into the soul gems plugin, thanks!

 

Anyone else have other thoughts for Perkus Maximus?

[Noortje]

put all the non patchusmaximus.esp perma files right above the bashed patch.

Oh and the CTD upon logo means you have a missing master file. Probably your bashed patch or patchusmaximus.esp require that mod, rerun the patchers to remove the requirement.

[Deleted1790188User]

No dice. I managed to redo the debug patch by changing 2048 to 1024 according to a reddit post I found and switched the plugins around to the non-patch files are above the bashed patch, but while it now doesn't CTD I'm still not getting the new skill trees. I'm really uncertain as to what I'm doing wrong here. I'd like to avoid completely uninstalling and reinstalling everything but at this point I might need to. Any more advice? Thanks for the help thus far, I appreciate it!

 

EDIT: It works now! I honestly have no idea what happened - I think I must have had one of the non-patch mods in the wrong spot and didn't see it because when I had them all moved down just before the bashed patch, and the patchusmaximus after, I got the right skill trees and everything. Thanks so much!
