Can anyone give me the best clean start for fallout 4 using vortex mod manager

Currently, there isn't a way in the UI to export your load order. You may be able to locate your plugins.txt file within Vortex's appdata folder. Or take a screenshot, I suppose.

Is it the most common thing we would do on a forum to upload an image and ask for help; this is such a waste of time and energy. Is there any simple instructions to upload an image of my load order since the plugins.txt cannot be uploaded. Why is there not a simple button to say upload image. Sorry for my rant but I am really running out of patience with this awful process and method to use a forum. It should be as simple as putting an emoji at the end of my sentence :sick: Cheers.

open your plugins.txt file, select it all and copy it.

come to the forum, add a reply.

paste the contents of your plugins.txt between [ quote ] and [ /quote ] tags. job done.

whats so hard about that?

If going somewhere like https://postimages.org/ , is above your skill-set, then I suggest you stick with NMM, because you're going to have a difficult time with Vortex.

 

It takes some effort on YOUR part as well, in order for us to help you.

postimages.org = message from this forum "you can't use that extension on this forum" ( Ha ) :nuke:

 

So found the plugins.txt file opened and pasted it here. However, I notice all the plugins listed are not actually active I reduced it all down, so that is a little awkward to know which order they are in maybe?

I see one problem with your load order right away.
The mod SUIT DREAMS, on the Description page says to only install ONE ESP, but apparently you didn't read the description page, because you have all five esps installed

 

 

 

Choose 1 "esp" among 5 versions, (i dont merge the 5 versions to avoid a list of 120 items):

- "1.Very Light" for those who are fearless.
- "2.Light" for those who fear by the deathclaws.
- "3.Average" for those who fear by the raiders.
- "4.Heavy" for those who fear by the molerats.
- "5.Very Heavy" for those who are afraid of their own shadow.

Hi not sure what you mean really the suit dreams mod is disabled in Vortex all of the esps are disabled for this mod according to Vortex Cheers

[Guest deleted34304850]

have you installed and enabled then disabled the unofficial fallout 4 patch?

according to that load order, i can see it listed, but it's clearly not active.

if you have installed/enabled it, then disabled it, then that will, at some point, if not immediately, cause you problems.

 

Removing all the mods that are not active, according to the list above gives you this;

 

*Homemaker.esm

*SpringCleaning.esm

*ArmorKeywords.esm

*Water Tower.esl

*Lazman_Bikinis.esp

*slootyVaultSuit.esp

*Armorsmith Extended.esp

*PrewarCommunities.esp

*CheatTerminal.esp

do you have the absolute latest version of armorkeywords and armoursmith extended? those can give you ctd's if you're not running the latest versions.

you may want to check all those mods listed and make 100% sure you're running the absolute latest version of each of them. update any that require an update and see how you go. you may want/need to start a new game if you are getting ctd's as the corruption is probably baked into your save.

It would be easier to use the snipping tool to show exactly what mods are enabled and disabled in your load order.

 

As well what mods you have installed, although you are using a mod manager there are external changes - so you could have inadvertently over written some files causing the crash.

Totally, agree - OP needs to provide a lot more specific information otherwise it will be very be difficult to trouble shoot.
