Heavily Modded FNV Install Order(Not Load Order)

[grinninglich]

I have finished FO3 without a single mod. On my first playthrough in FNV i decided to heavily mod the game. I've downloaded many mods and prepared them in FMM to install. But many mods overwrites other mod files. I have some questions i hope you can help me?

 

1-) Can you help me to sort the install order so everything will be in order and get the best and lore friendly textures?

 

2-) I have 3 big texture mods. NMCs, Ojo Bueno and Textures Over Time. Which one to install first? To overwrite or not overwrite? Strangely, Ojo Bueno seems to overwrite its own textures.

 

3-) There is also work to make EVE, WRP, WMX, Weapon Animaton Replacer, Project Nevada together. Total mess for me. Some of them seems to overwrite Menu and UI files too? Is this a problem?

 

4-) Do you suggest Quest, NPC mods and AWOP on a first-time play?

 

5-) Do you suggest body replacer mods? A lot of retexture mods seem to use them. But if i install them will they be incompatable with vanilla armors?

Realized that it has been what, 4 years since you posted this, but since you have not stated whether you've resolved it or not, might as well give it a shot.

 

1. Use LOOT.

 

2. Don't know. Never used them. If it's just minor details, I can't be really bothered with it. I like to focus on the atmosphere part of my game (turn it into Dark Souls), and the action part (zweihander, AK47, a f***ing bolt action deathclaw ncr ranger raping shotgun, and a s*** ton of IWS npcs coming to taste the bass cannon), some glorification of the best faction (CNR turns the legion into a proper superpower), and new areas. If you pick the right enb, it can conjure a pretty damn fine imagery. Check out my images in my profile if you don't believe me. But if you insist on using the texture mods, then pick only one.

 

3. Install Project Nevada first, then the others.

 

4. NPC overhaul mods for a first time play. The characters looks ugly, and that would seriously dampen the ardor of your play. I suggest getting the mannequin race replacer thingy. That one's really good, and is essential in every playthrough I make. Sure near all the female characters will look like anime girls, but that's a damn good thing if you ask me. FCO is good, but I prefer a realistic anime (something like Berserk) look all and all. Depends on the quest. If its a legion based quest, then stick it in. The best faction in the game is sadly undeveloped. Adding quest for them would make them as glorious as they should be. If story quests, then I would suggest saving it for later. Those like Death's Last Whisper and The Empire Wasteland is best experienced later. AWOP is best added later. That mods add hours more of content (I'm talking like a hundred hours of content), and you might be burned out of exploring everything. In any case, New Vegas is not like Skyrim. With Skyrim, you must play modded, even if its your first time. The game just feels pretty damn dull. New Vegas however is not that. But do whatever you want. You're your own boss.

 

5. Depends on the armour you want really. I play a Moonshadow female legion vampire courier, so I use Type 6 as most of the armours I want is in Type 6. If you're worried about incompatibilities, use body compatibility mods. They'd fix it. I never had the need to use it, so I can't really confirm on that. Most armours just worked fine for me.

 

If none of these advises are helping you, then I'm sorry. These are the best I can come up with.
