Help with GECK

[Vurumai]

Please don't dismiss me as a moron who doesn't research and doesn't read, and give me standard copy/pasted responses..

 

Currently, My game is very extensively modified, about the only thing still vanilla about it is the menu screen. Right now I'm using the Requiem for the Capital Wasteland mod that's becoming popular for those adventurous enough to dig around in and modify the files that need to be tweaked in order to use it, and so far I'm very pleased with the results. However, the capital wasteland regions are, of course, still using hideous washed out vanilla 'weather' patterns.

 

For the Mojave wasteland, I do use the Nevada Skies mod, and all attempts to ask for help with weather mods on the RFCW discussions, Nevada Skies discussions, and anywhere else I've asked has been completely ignored. None of the weather mods for Fallout 3 (such as Wasteland Weather Overhaul, or Wasteland Mood Series) don't work, at all. I recently had my heart set on trying to make a plug-in to expand Nevada Skies to affect the Capital Wasteland regions as well.

 

Here's where the problems begin.

 

In order to change the climate patterns of CW regions to use the Nevada Skies climates, the Nevada Skies mod has to be loaded into the GECK, of course. Nevada Skies, since I'm using the Honest Hearts edition, has New Vegas and Honest Hearts set as its masters, which means loading Nevada Skies automatically loads those two masters as well. First problem arose with the "multiple masters" error. I edited the line in the GECKCustom.ini file to allow multiple master files to be loaded. Trouble is, now when the GECK tries to load multiple masters, it simply freezes and crashes. I cannot even load Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas, let alone both of those AND Nevada Skies, in order to make my home brew plug-in. Is there something else i need to do in order to load three or more master files? Or is there a way to duplicate an ESP file and change its master files? Some way i can load Nevada Skies, and Fallout 3, so i can change the climate setting for Capital Wasteland regions...

 

I'd rather not copy Nevada Skies in full, that'd feel like theft, Id rather just make a small plug-in that just utilizes whats already in Nevada Skies. A little help would be very much appreciated, and if possible, please send me private messages; I have a horrible habit of forgetting about forum threads.
