MagicSpammer Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'm brand new to modding and was able to get some simple graphical mods with the help of a friend, but my computer crashes every 30 minutes or so when I enter big area like Camp Macarran or The Strip, or when I engage a large number of enemies. Normally my laptop, (Predator Helios 300) handles it just fine but my game freaks out and crashes.The only Mod I have downloaded outside of NVSE is NMC's Large Texture Pack, so I'm thinking the problem is there but I don't know what to do or where to look. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/43135?tab=files I also have the NMC LOD texture patch that is needed for the texture mod to work.https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/64698 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gromulos Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) This is your problem right here, from the description page for NMC's Large Texture Pack You need to use the 4GB Fallout New Vegas (by MonochromeWench - Hendricks266 - Roy Batty) I've linked the mod you need below, https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/55061 also, you may have missed this IMPORTANT:Activate 'Archive Invalidation' in the tools (spanner/ wrench icon) tab of NMM. Even if it is already activated, switch it OFF then back ON.***Resetting archive Invalidation should be standard practice after installing any new graphics mod***. In the future make sure you read the description page for EVERY mod you decide to use, "MOST" of the time any instructions for a mod will be located there :smile: Edited August 22, 2018 by gromulos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubiousintent Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Please see the wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article, which among other things points you to Grimulos' excellent guide for beginners. The vanilla game has so many problems that we have a collection of "Essential" fix mods you should install before trying to mod for game play, which are listed in that article as well. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
