Mods that effect other mods must load below the one it is affecting. When you download a mod, you REALLY need to read the descriptions and read me files from the mod they will often tell you if there are conflicts or issues with other mods, and many have patches to work with other big mods.

Some mods are 'parents' and require others to load. Ensure you read descriptions. A mod may contain 5 files that need to be loaded in different order. Not all files are for you! You may download a mod that has a 2nd file for all the expansions. You may not have all the expansions. You must deselect any files that are not fitting for you, or you WILL crash. Larger mods usually load first. Smaller mods usually go later in the order. If you have crashes, disable your mods one by one to find which is causing it.

After this, enable it again and move it around in the load order to try to fix your issue. Some mods may overwrite content of previously installed mods. It is important on large mods to READ their pages to see if they suggest installing certain mods before or after. Your load order will not affect this, if you install a mod that overwrites files, your load order becomes irrelevant and those files are now gone.

Another thing to note is that everything a mod adds has an ID number given to it this is important when using the console to add items, or in some mods that require user input. These ID's contain letters and numbers, and are always 8 characters long. So an item could be f this is caps If you have a mod, the first two digits change to where that mod is in your load order. In the NMM on the 'Plugins' section you can find those two digits by finding the mod you need and looking at its 'load order' It will consist of a combination of two letters or numbers.

This is needed for the fallout 3 example mod above it would be xxEA7 with the xx being where the mod is in your load order. The Script extender runs with Fallout 3 or Fallout New Vegas that allows modders to add a ton of new features to mods. This is very Important The Script extender is the one mod you MUST manually install, and install in a different folder then the rest of your mods. Click to download the latest build. You need a program like winrar to open the file.

Beside it is a link for the. Once downloaded, Open the folder. You will see a single folder inside. Open it. You will now see a folder called 'src' several. The Script Extender is now installed. Now tell the NMM that. Now when you press this, Fallout with load with the script extender, allowing mods to run fully. On a few occasions you will have mods that you cannot install with the manager, usually due to their age.

It is easier then it seems. Use an appropriate program such as Winrar to open this file. If there is a folder inside with the name of your mod, open it, otherwise we need to take all the files and folders in the archive. Load up NMM and on the plugins screen, ensure your new mods are selected. All done! Start your game. Load order can be difficult, so there are a few programs out there to assist you. I won't go into detail on how to use their applications, but you can check their pages to see full descriptions on their usage.

Some mods that contain the same content can override others. A merged patch helps these mods work together. Merged patches are a advanced aspect of modding and should not be taken lightly, read the pages, look for tutorial, and backup saves and data The mod maker describes it as 'If you don't know what this program is you should not be using it'.

For Fallout 3, Read the page in detail, and look up how to make merged patches, I wont go into detail about it here. For New Vegas, and again I will not be going into detail on merged patches here.

Lets get to the mods - Note, not all mods are for you. Some may fit your style, some may not. These are mostly generic and mostly Lore friendly mods.

These are mostly not content driven, but visual and game mechanic driven. Some mods require a high powered computer, so make sure you read their descriptions. Note that some major mods have smaller mods built in already.

Not Lore Friendly This mod adds a lot of new creatures to the game. I do not use it but a large number of fallout players do.

It gets rid of the terrible green tint and has the option of dark nights. Adds a player home with tons of cool features from weapons walls, companion housing, medical storage, etc. It is a fairly complicated mod for a beginner. It is not friendly with other big mods like FWE, so I would suggest one or the other regardless of patches.
