Slightly new to modding but Oblivion hates me -.-

I tried the day before yesterday with 30 mods and it kept crashing, yesterday it was working great with 16 mods but I installed some female textures and the game decided to shun me for being a pervert so it stopped working >_>

ANYWAYS today I'm only using 12 mods and it STILL wont work!

 

These are my mods and load order on OMM

 

Oblivion.esm

Unofficial Oblivion Patch

Better Cities

All 10 vanilla DLCs that came with the GOTY edition

Oblivion Citadel Door fix (part of the unofficial patch)

UOP Vampire aging and face fix

Basic Primary Needs

HUD Status bars

Speechcraft Enhanced

PTCombat Speechcraft

Maskar's Oblivion Overhaul

Alternative Start

 

And I just noticed ArmaCompleteResources and Vanilla Combat Overhaul aren't on my mod order list but are installed.

 

The only 2 files I copied straight into the Oblivion data folder are Blockhead and Menuque because OMM wouldn't recognize them.

 

 

 

So does anyone have any idea of what I'm doing wrong? I know my PC can run it since it can run Skyrim on High and I actually played it for a good 30 minutes before going "oh I think I wanna see people naked" and ruining everything

 

P.S. I did not TOUCH any ini because I know how easily that can break the installation.

If you have Arma complete resources, do you also have Armamentarium Complete? You need that too, both the main files.

 

Maskar's, Vanilla Combat Enhanced, Blockhead and Menque all require OBSE. Blockhead, OBSE and Menque will all go in the OBSE/PLUGINS folder, not the DATA folder.

 

All the above issues will cause your game to blow up when you launch it. Gotta have the mods and utilities in the right folders and have all the requirements as well. Gotta RTFM, amigo. While probably 80% of mods find their way into the data folder, quite a few have to go elsewhere. Not mods per se, but utilities that the mods need to run. Like OBSE.

 

You are probably going to want to start over with a fresh install. Means removing the leftover folders in the Steam and My Docs folders as well to be sure you don't leave bad prior mod install attempts and saves behind. Blow it all away and then launch your game, play for a min. Close it. Now install your mods. Until you know what you are doing, just one at a time and test that the game still works. if it suddenly doesn't after a mod, you know the culprit. Then go find out what you did wrong. What you didn't grab that you needed to for that mod, etc.

 

There is a learning curve, good luck.

Lastly, after you get em all installed, run LOOT. It's a program that will set your load order properly so you don't get problems.

 

Hopefully you are using a mod manager like OBMM or NMM to install and uninstall mods. To do otherwise is a real chore and for a new guy, almost guaranteed to hose your game often. Even then, some mods don't play well with one or the other of those. Always read the entire mod description and at least a few pages of comments so you know what the potential issues are.
