So, as pretty much 50% of the user base here, I enjoy to mod my game to the point where it's almost unrecognizable from the vanilla version. So of course I was excited when I saw that there's a bundle of useful mods up already.

Only problem is, I can't get them to work.

I download, extract to data folder, start the launcher, go to data files, tick the boxes near the mods I want to run, and hit ok. But as soon as I start the game, it crashes. Sometimes I get a glimpse of the first loading screen, but that's all. I've tried trial and error by unchecking single mods so on, but nothing works.

Since there's no FOMM or FOSE yet, I put the blame on the loading order. But some workaround would be highly appreciated.

Sincerely yours,

The Nuka-Cola Dude

You may want to post what mods you are having issues with as I have not had trouble with any of the 12 mods I have checked in my Loader and those include the ones I have made myself or downloaded from the Nexus.

But somehow I'm able to run these just fine:

They are crashing because the mod creators put some of the Pre-Order DLC packs as being required to run the mods and you do not own one of the packs the esp is looking for.

Goodspring definitely has an issue, which the dev has acknowledged and will be fixing soon (if he hasn't already).

Kind of a similar problem here, I just made a couple mods for myself to try the new GECK out, and every time I try to activate them in the launcher, it just crashes entirely immediately upon activation. Anyone have any clue what the reason could be?

Edit: Fixed it myself. I have to manually add .esp names in Fallout_default.ini

I hope a mod manager comes out soon so I don't have to do this forever.
