Could someone help me through mod installation?

[Grunker]

Hi,

 

I think of myself as a pretty capable PC-user, and I mod most of my games. I also modded my previous playthrough of New Vegas, but I'm running into quite a few snags this time around. So I wanted to hear if someone hear could guide me through the few troubles I'm having installing this time around.

 

Alright, to start of I'm using Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition on a Windows 7 64bit computer. For mod-installation I'm using the Nexus Mod Manager 0.14.1.

 

The mods I'd like are:

 

CONELRAD

Inventory Sorters

Mission Mojave

New Vegas Bounties 1

New Vegas Map Markers

Warehouse War House

Willow - A Better Companion Experience

Weapon Retexture Project

DIMONIZED vanilla race presets

DIMONIZED facial textures

 

Now, of this list, only the last three cause me trouble. The rest install just fine. I started off just downloading and installing them via the Nexus Mod Manager, but this seemed to not work. So I decided to install these manually. This has proven a fruitless endevour too however.

 

First, with Weapon Retexture project, I simply copy-paste the Texture/Meshes folders into /data. I can't find an associated .esp-file though. Does this mod not have one? Have I correctly installed the mod by just copy-pasting? The reason I ask is because no plugin is listed in neither FNV launcer or NMM.

 

Second, I cannot for the life of me figure out the DIMONIZED stuff. My needs are quite simple, I want something like this:

(from here)

 

to be an available preset, and I thought that was what the linked mod did along with the retexture stuff from DIMONIZED. I don't want the clothes or stuff like that, just face/hair/make-up stuff.

 

The only thing I'm able to do succesfully with this stuff is making DIM CUSTOM PRESETS show up as a plugin on Nexus Mod Manager, but it doesn't seem to do anything when I get into the game.

 

So yeah, those are my troubles. I hope you good folks can help me!

Do you have ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated? For the body changers that would be a start.

[Grunker]

Yes indeed. I use this:

I don't care at all about the bodies, I just want the face-presets, since the default ones in FNV are pretty fugly and I'm an idiot at using the sliders to make something cool. In the comment-section of the presets however, it says you need the body-mod-thingy for the presets to look like the screenshots. If I can make this process easier by removing body-mods I don't care about I will. I was just under the impression I needed those mods.
