DominusAnulorum Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 So I am new to installing mods into Fallout 3 and I want to know what a good load order would be for the following mods and what mods these will render incompatible (I will be using the fallout mod manager): Fallout 3 Wanderer’s EditionFallout 3 ReanimatedProject BeautyNMC’s Texture PackFOOK 2+Compatibility Patch for WEEnhanced Weather I will be adding more mods, such as mission mods and new area mods, but this is enough for now (although if anyone has recommendations, let me know). Forgive me if this is in the wrong forum, I am new to these forums (although I have used it extensively for skyrim).
M48A5 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Do not try to use FOOK and FWE together. If you try you will be asking for trouble. To manage your load order, download and install B.O.S.S.and to use FWE or FOOK, you will need to download and install FOSE. Also, to make it easier to manage your mods and to launch the game, download and install FOMM. To help to resolve conflicts, download and install FO3Edit. Make sure you also get the training manual for FO3Edit.
DominusAnulorum Posted July 22, 2012 Author Posted July 22, 2012 Does the patch which is supposed to remove incompatibility issues not work? I found it here. And what is B.O.S.S.? I have not heard of it. Can you not manage load order using the mod manager, like with skyrim.
M48A5 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 B.O.S.S. is Better Obilivion Sorting Software. It is a one click mod sorting software that will do 90% of the work in sorting your mods. It is highly recommended by just about everyone that uses mods on Fallout3. Again, you can try to use FWE and FOOK2 at your own risk. You should read through the Mod Troubleshooting forum before you make you decision. I tried to use FOOK2 alone and gave up due to CTDs and went back to FWE.
DominusAnulorum Posted July 22, 2012 Author Posted July 22, 2012 Thanks for the advice. I will give it all a try. I will try to use that patch to get FOOK and FWE to work, but if it doesn't I will probably go with FWE as well. Thank you.
