Newbie to Mods needs a mentor!!

[GQSmooth]

Hey all,

 

I have been playing Fallout on console since it was released and wanted to add some new content so I got it for my PC as well. I have been trying to Mod just using guess work but nothing is working and It's time to break down and ask for directions. I have FOMM but I can't seem to get it to pick up any of the Mods I download. I just created a new folder on my desktop to where all the files will be sent to but like I said, it doesn't seem to work. I have looked around on the forums but can't find a detailed description of exactly how to do set up everything from start to finish. Any help would GREATLY be appreciated!!!

So I followed the above instructions to the T and still nothing. I was able to get it to where I was able to Activate a mod but in game, nothing showed up. I tried to download the Mod, JoOs Armory to see if I had it set up correctly but I see no footlocker anywhere. ):

You activate mod in FOMM.

First you must copy all the contence of the mod in the data in New Vegas directory.

You must have archive invalidation also.
