Cannot get Color/UI/Sorting/Component to play nicely

[Sboy86]

Hi team.

I've been trying for the last few weeks to get a few mods working, namely:

DEF_UI/DEF_INV
A Realistically Weightless Colored Sorting Mod
Gold Kit for Color Pipboy
HUDFramework
Valdacil's Item Sorting

Here is my mod list, everything installed works fine, but when I try installing the aforementioned mods, I either, CTD, have weird tags before or after item names, have no component tags, icons that are missing in inventory, unsorted items or any combination of the these.

I am guessing it has something to do with the order and which files should/should not be overwritten when i am installing them.

Can someone point me in the right direction? Possibly incompatible mods? Install order? Load Order?

I use NMM to install, and LOOT for load order, however to be honest, im not 100% on what I am doing.

Ultimately what I'm aiming for, is the colored pipboy, with the icons for items in inventory/barter/trade/world, with a sorting mod and to have the component tags show in the world.

I'm a bit out of my depth, and would love a bit of a hand.

FYI, all DLC and latest version 1.9.something.
