Mod Load Order Question

[taylormatthew88]

hello i just have one question i have used the oblivion mod manager to detector and there are quite a fe how do u get the mod order to load automatically?

[lubronbrons]

hmm.... I think about load order, you should use BOSS

here's the link https://boss-developers.github.io/

and for manager, try learn using Wrye bash. it pretty much hassle in first

but, when you get a hang of it. Wrye bash is the best tools for Oblivion, especially bashed patch feature

try googling it, many tutorial of know how to use this tools

[taylormatthew88]

so just so i understand this the webpage pop up is the proper load order?

[Striker879]

BOSS uses your browser to display it's report. The actual sorting is done using the masterlist and any userlists you create (for unrecognized mods for example).

[taylormatthew88]

okay i get how to do the report but i dont see anything to use for a master list to sort it, its a first for me :/

[Striker879]

BOSS can automatically update it's masterlist when you run it, though for some (and I'm one of those some) the masterlist update doesn't work. I just download the masterlist from BOSS Masterlist for Oblivion. It is exactly the same one that BOSS would use automatically. You just download to a folder and exact it, then copy the file masterlist.txt to your BOSS\Oblivion folder (so the full path is BOSS\Oblivion\masterlist.txt). The masterlist really only needs to be updated on your machine after you install a newer mod that is then added to the masterlist by mhahn123 (or perhaps an older mod that never made the list). If you have an unrecognized mod in the report you can use the userlist to arrange it in your load order (I generally use trial and error to find the best spot, using other mods of the same type as a guide). You can then post a comment for mhahn123 and it will get added to the next version of the masterlist.

Well for starters according to the Oct 02 2015 masterlist your All Naturals are in the wrong order, should be All Natural.esp then All Natural - SI.esp and then All Natural - Real Lights.esp (though I didn't search to see if any of your other mods should come in between any of those). The masterlist is just a text file. You can use Find off the Edit menu in Notepad to search for anything.

 

Did you check to make sure BOSS is set to use the masterlist (make sure the Sort Plugins radio button is selected in the BOSS GUI ... if Update Masterlist is ticked below that it should check for an updated masterlist before it runs as well).

 

- Edit - Load order in the game is achieved by file dates and times. You can manually change load order simply by changing the dates and times on ESP files using something like File Date Changer 1.61 (though to do so for your entire load order it would be a bit tedious). In OBMM you can use the buttons to move ESPs up or down in your load order and it just changes the dates and times as required to reset your load order.
