Aqua Trenoble Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Sorry for the wordy title, just wanted to make it easy to find for others with this problem. So I had the problems listed in the title and noticed that this guy did as well: http://www.thenexusforums.com/index.php?/topic/436636-please-please-help-me-i-beg-you/page__hl__mod__st__20. I had already figured out that it was my 200+ mod list that caused the problem but it was good to confirm that I was correct. So now I'm playing and there are no problems so far. However, how can I circumvent this issue? Am I doomed to wander the Capital Wasteland and various other regions with only 225 mods installed? I'll post my load order if you think you need it, but for now I think that it would just make this page impossible to read.

vforvic Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Well I guess you could use FO3Plugin to Merge Plugins. I have done this in the past for various reasons and its easy and painless...for the most part. For example, lets say you have 5 mods that all add a simple weapon or two each. You can use FO3Plugin to Merge the 5 mods into 1 mod and just use that single mod file. Then you can just uncheck the other 4 and keep the one you merged the mods into as active in your load order. Keep in mind that you cannot "uninstall" those mods if they have resources that are needed such as meshes and textures. You just uncheck them in your load order and they will not count towards your limit.Start by just looking for those little simple mods files that really don't do much, but still count towards your limit and merge them. If you keep it to simple mod files then you should have no problems. If an issue pops up then you can just replace the Merged file with its original from the Pack and recheck the others.Before you Merge mods you can also open them up in FO3Edit if yo like just to make sure they don't do something you are not aware of that might cause issues.If you open a mod with FO3Plugin and go to "File" you will see "Merge Plugins" down the list where you can pick what plugin or plugins you want to Merge into the open one. Just keep it simple and it should help a little with your numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqua Trenoble Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) That's a good idea. Hopefully it will work. I'll go try it. Edit: Kudos to you, you magnificent bastard! Edited December 15, 2011 by Aqua Trenoble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
