bastardodentro1 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Alright so after 2 years i came back to fallout 3 and decided i wanted to play it with mods, so i watched Gopher's series on the main mods(very nice guy and all).In his first video he says, when installing FWE, to avoid ticking the followers enhanced option, because we currently dont have the mod.However, when i go to the FWE website, i find out that its not the support for another mod but its an extra feature of FWE, so i told myself: i want that! since followers are so dumb in the vanilla game.In his next videos i also notice, that Gopher HAS infact the followersenhanced.esp, so i told myself: fair enough, he probably made a mistake, reinstalled fwe and forgot to tell us, it happens.I also notice that he has many files that are named like: "Project beauty - fwe followers enhanced patch" ticked, so again, he probably made a mistake fair enough.So what is my problem then? Basically, if i try to tick the followers enhanced - broken steel option (ONLY that one, im not a retard and if it wasnt for this i would have fo3 modded running without problems) it installs no problem, but when i apply the 6.0.3 hotfix, it gives me this error: BOSS_API_ERROR_INVALID_ARGS: Master files must be load before other plugins.I did activate also the part 2 with my NMM, so i dont really see what im doing wrong. Please help.I also did try to search for a "followers enhanced" mod, but didnt find any, so this must surely be a FWE feature.Thanks in advance for the help.

M48A5 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 "I did activate also the part 2 with my NMM, so i dont really see what im doing wrong." What you did wrong was using NMM to install this mod. You need to reread the ReadMe and/or the mod page. Nowhere does it say you can use NMM to install this mod. It is not in a Fomod form and needs to be made into one. You have to do this manually or use FOMM. Also, you reason you are getting the message is that Followers Enhanced is an .esp, not an .esm. FO3 Wanderers Edition - Main File.esm must be created and loaded before any of the optional files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bastardodentro1 Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Well first of all, Gopher says you can obviously use nmm, so i dont know..And i am loading the ESMs before, NMM doesnt even let you load esms after esps, its just the hotfix not working.Anyone else? How did Gopher install followers enhanced WITH nmm then? Since it appears in both his mods/plugins.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpartanVOO1 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Remove .esm flag from FWE Alternate Travel with F3Edit and sort plugins with BOSS. After that, install part 2 and hotfix. Also, Gopher in his videos says that you don't need 3 optional plugins for MMM because of Master Menu Module - it is not right, because Master Menu don't affect that options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowfx78 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 @SpartanVOO1 thats not correct about the master menu module it is because FWE contains those plugins already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartanVOO1 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 @SpartanVOO1 thats not correct about the master menu module it is because FWE contains those plugins already.FWE contains Natural Selection, Tougher Traders, Increased Spawns?

bastardodentro1 Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 I tried editing all of the files that come with FWE(with fo3edit) and none of them is an esp marked as esm, at this point i really dont know what to do, i looked this up and NOBODY else has my problem?

M48A5 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 You are installing in the wrong order. First you do part one of FWE, then part two, then do the hot fix and then you can install the additional plugins. If you are still confused as to the order, watch Gopher's video again.

bastardodentro1 Posted October 26, 2012 Author Share Posted October 26, 2012 The part one asks me if i want to install followers enhanced, if i say no, it never asks me again. What am i supposed to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
