Need some help making merged patches

[Noan Sumoy]

So I've been having some crashes recently (not often, but still there), and I was thinking of making some merged patches in case some of my mods are causing problems. Tbh though I have no idea which ones I should merge. Can someone help me out here?

I'm also thinking of adding a FO3 weapon mod: http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/40007

Which specifically recommends making a merged patch, though I'm not sure with what.

EDIT: While I'm here, I just ran BOSS and it's telling me all my official DLC have some dirty edits and need to be cleaned, anything in particular I should know about this?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Well are you talking about merging mods or a merged patch? Two different things. What your talking about is merging mods, but a merged patch is easier and will probably help a lot.

Ah, I wasn't aware there was a difference (I'm semi new to PC gaming in general). Could you tell me (or direct me to a source) about what I'd need to do in terms of merged patches?

The fnvedit training manual, tho some info is dated.

 

To make a merged patch just load up all the mods in fnvedit, right click in the left window, go down to other, and hit create merged patch. That's the simplest way, more info is in the manual. :)

Merging Mods is easy too.

 

I found that there is a tool in Java (by ScripterRon) that lets your merge .ESPs which is good to to if you hit the limit of how many plugins can be loaded by New Vegas (like me).

 

Here's a link, it is on the Nexus.

Great, thanks guys. But does anyone here know any items from my list that I could put into a merged patch?
