I need some serious help before I shoot this thing.

Ok, I recently installed a new motherboard and processer. Before, I was running Fallout 4 with close to 60 mods and had the Start me up mod running and all was fine. I have a fresh new install of windows 7 ultimate and Fallout 4 with only two mods installed, 63 special points and Start Me Up. The special points mod works, I went through normal play where you talk to the Vault tec rep. But I cannot get the Start me up mod to work, and I have been trying all sorts of things for the last 3 days. My system is up to par since I play Far cry 5 with no issue.

 

I do have it set up for modding correctly, I have skse installed(pretty sure neither require it though). Any ideas, no matter how stupid they may sound would be welcome. Although, it probably is something simple I am not doing right, but right now I don't know what that is. HELP ME PLEASE!!!!! :wallbash:

 

Also, I have tried rolling back all the way to 1.10.75.

I don't know what is going on with this piece of crap but it is all screwed up and I have no clue why. I added some ammo from the console which weights nothing and it added about 800lbs to my carry weight. Explain that one..

"I have skse installed"

 

your problem is right there, skse is skyrim script extender

 

you need f4se (fallout 4 script extender)

 

but yea, start me up does not require this

 

are you absolutely certain that you are starting a brand new game, as start me up only works after character creation, and kicks in as you leave the main room, where you created your character.

 

 

also you have to make sure that every option is selected for start me up to work, these are as follows:

 

1. Name + Special Points Assinging

 

2. Traits = just pick *none* for now

 

3. What am i doing in my life = pick what you wish to start as

 

4. where am i (not the actual option name, but something like that) = choose where you wish to start

 

5. how much gear do i have = select an option

 

6. how much do i know = choose what level you wish to start at

 

 

once these conditions have been met, you will then have the option to *wake up* (game fades to black, and then you spawn in the place you choose) start me up has worked

 

Note i did not want to start a new game to get the correct settings, but yea, basically you have to make sure you select an option in all options provided, in order to get the ability to wake up (i am ready to wake up) option

My bad on that one, I have f4se installed not skse. And yes it is a brand new game, the game comes up normally, I create my charactar go to walk through the doorway and nothing, I walk right through like the mod is not installed. However, the mod is installed and checked and there is both the ba2 file and the esp file in the data folder. I checked for that since for some reason a couple installs ago with nmm and it did not put the ba2 there so I had to manually install it.

I went and found a character save that is right before you come out of the vault. And now I have an issue now with adding ammo in the console that I never had before. I go and add 125 shotgun shells and it adds exactly that and they have zero weight, yet it added over 800lbs to my inventory.

 

Even though I am continuing with a character save, I would still like to get start me up to working, love this mod.

OK, I do not believe this but it starting working. There was an update for nmm, but, I would have never thought in a million years that this would have been the cause of my problem. So I updated to try it, It works. It even installed Start me up correctly. I haven't tried it as of yet but I bet adding the ammo through the console even works right. Dangit, I figured it was something I wasn't doing, but again, I would have never thought NMM's would have been the root of the cause. Thanks anyways.
