Merging plugins and mod order/patch questions

[justaking]

Hello,

I thought I had a good idea, to merge all of my armour and weapon mods into one single plugin, in TES5Edit with 1.9. I didnt think it would be too hard and shouldn't cause any conflicts or problems, but after I followed the instructions for using it through MO, my game became completely unstable. I'm not sure what i did wrong. At the end, after the plugin is created, do you disable the original mods in the left window or only the right window? I also many errors in the creation process while creating the plugin and I'm sure that was not good. I will try to do it again to copy the errors here if needed.

I'd also like to post my load order for anyone who knows of these things to do me a favor and take a look at. If you see anything wrong, out of order, patches missing, etc. please let me know. I know it's huge.... also, anyone know how post spoilers so it doesnt take up a huge space? I forgot how to do it. Thanks for any help friends.

I'm also getting error messages from DnyDOLOD saying cannot find files every few seconds.

 

What is the best way to find a txt version of your mod order in MO?

You armor and weapon mods most likely edit the leveled list, that is very hard to merge and will case problems.

Go to MO folder, there is folder titled profiles. Go to the profile, there is a text file named mods list.

Ok, so merging the armour and weapons is out of the question? I don't know which ones alter the leveled list or how to disable that in each mod or give control of it to one single one.

 

I found the folder, thank you for the directions, but the mods one is all mixed up so i'll post the plugins one instead. Is that the same or different somehow, besides the order?

sooo.... any ideas anyone?

[justaking]

I'm now experiencing random crashes while just browsing the smith stall vendor's wares in windhelm.... very frustrating.

[justaking]

And now I'm getting the eternal hang if i try to load any save game or start a new game and try to go outside for the first time..... No one has any ideas?

[justaking]

really need help here....maybe its such a simple fix no one is bothering to say it? I have been searching for days now, altering .INI files, changing mods, and restarting my Laptop continuously as it continues to either eternal load screen on me or outright freeze. I'm getting so frustrated. What could be the problem here.....?

If you are talking about Mator's script to merge plugins in TES5Edit, I've done that and it works great. You have to follow the directions carefully, which means the plugins you select have to be in sequential load order, and have been cleaned and checked for errors BEFORE you do the merge. If you are getting errors during the merge, you are going to have serious issues in the game. I don't use MO, I'm using an older version of NMM. I just deleted the original esps from the data folder once I had an error free merge - you can't have both active! I also pack all the merged mod loose files created by the script into a single bsa file, named the same as the merged esp, and unload the original mods. Doing that I was able to get a load order that looked like yours down to a handful of plugins. Can't thank Mator enough for such a great tool.

Thanks for the reply. I just decided to keep all of them separate. I tried the directions several times and I just dont know what I am doing wrong. I keep getting errors. Moving on from that though, does anyone see anything missing or outright wrong with my load order? I am just having random CTD's with no apparent common cause. I know it's a long list and something is bound to conflict with something, but if you could just give it a quick glance and let me know if anything is majorly wrong or needs to go, I would appreciate it.

 

P.S. I installed the safety load which seemed to resolve the eternal load screens I was having before, but then the crashes got worse....I tried taking the safety load off and immediately had the eternal loading screen again.
