Best Mods? Also having some odd issues

[SingingThroughTheStorm]

So I am playing FO3 again (don't know how many times I have played it), and wanted to see if I was getting the most of it.

Played numerous times on the PS3, and now doing my second playthrough on the PC. First playthrough was using FOOK2, Cube Experimental, and a few other mods.

Now I am doing a playthrough with FWE, MMM, DCInteriors, Fellout, and Enhanced Weather. I can't really tell if DC Interiors installed properly, any ideas?

 

FWE also doesn't seem to be loading textures properly either. I know it is FWE because Armor and some weapons (very few) added by it are experiencing the problem, as well as the wasteland explorer.

I do have Archive Invalidation on as well AFAIK.

You need to download and install FOMM to handle your mods and to toggle ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated! and you also need FOSE, it is required by FWE to operate properly.

Hope this solves you problem.

Already have FOMM, and Fose installed. ArchiveInvalidation is also checked on in the top menu of FOMM. So that doesn't seem to be the problem.

I wasn't sure DC Interiors installed properly at first either. Look at the description to see what areas are covered, then travel to one. You won't be dissapointed.

 

Sometimes it is necessary to redo ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated! after installing a mod. This seems especially true of big ones like FWE. It cant hurt anything, so give it a shot.

 

You also asked for suggestions, here a few of my favorites

Playing with Firepower - Remote detonated explosives, including Mini-Nukes, plus a lot more. This is an under-appreciated gem.

 

Destruction - "A destroyable environments mod" Shoot terminals, Nuka Cola machines, etc. for explosive fun or tactical advantage. Shoot out the lights for better sneaking (note - doesn't always work with Fellout installed), and so much more...

 

CASM - Never worry about saving again.

 

Wrye Flash - Because many mods will require a "merged patch"(FO3Edit). The "Bashed Patch" does the same thing, allows you far greater control, and is more reliable.
