Dynamic Weather

• Author: Xepha
• Version: v3.0
• Notes: In conjunction with Enhanced Weather this mod adds rain, sand storms, more weather variation, and sneak bonuses that depend on weather conditions.
• Installation: The file is not packaged in a way that it can easily be installed.

Install the mod normally with MO, and get the optional "Dynamic Weather - Green Tint Remover" file installing it on top of the main file with [Merge]

Right click the mod in the left pane of MO, select Open in Explorer, and open the Optional Files folder.

Open the "Dynamic Weather - Weather Machine" folder and drag all the files to the top level Dynamic Weather folder.

Do the same for the Dynamic Weather - Sandstorms, Dynamic Weather - Rain, and Dynamic Weather - Dynamic Sneak Bonus folders.

Open the Dynamic Weather - DLC folder and drag the Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Main + DLC Merged.esp to the top level Dynamic Weather folder.

Go back to the top level folder and delete the Optional Files folder and Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Main.esp.

Close the Explorer window.

Double click the mod in the left pane of MO and select the Optional ESPs tab.

Move the Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Weather Machine (Quest Added).esp to Optional ESPs, the quest takes place in an area that is much too dangerous for low level players. Move either Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Weather Machine (Quest Added).esp or "Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Weather Machine (Start Game Added).espto Optional ESPs; for systems with limited CPU and GPU capability use only the Start Game added version of this plugin.

Move either Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Sandstorms + Armor Damage (FOSE).esp or Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Sandstorms.esp to Optional ESPs.

When running LOOT make sure that the Green tint remover plugin is very close to last.

 

Red emphasis mine

 

You mention that "Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Weather Machine (Quest Added).esp" should be moved to Optional ESP's twice. Did you mean "Xepha's Dynamic Weather - Weather Machine (Vendor Added).esp" instead in one of these mentions (the file is not mentioned anywhere else and thus is still in activated ESPs).

Flora Overhaul

Core 

MedRes 

Cleaning 

• Author: vurt
• Version: v1.5
• Fallout NV Equivalent: Flora Overhaul, an equivalent mod by the same author.
• Notes: Version 1.5 changes only the Forested edition.
• Installation: The preferred options are the Forested or Dead versions, but the Total Devastation and especially the Lite versions have much less effect on performance. The Dead version has less impact on performance than the Forested version.

 

It is noted that this mod needs cleaning, but xEdit shows no ITMs or UDRs to be fixed.

[Nozzer66]

Pretty sure with the Flora Mod that the cleaning depends on which version you choose. It's been a while since I've set Fallout 3 up so I may be wrong.

K9 Breeds - Random dog breeds for Fallout 3

MedRes 

• Author: hikky71
• Version: v1.1
• Notes: Randomizes the appearance for nearly all dogs (except Dogmeat) so there are 40 variants of how dogs look in the game.
• Installation: Get the main file and install with MO.

Now all dogs won't be exactly the same!

 

This mod includes a compatibility file called:

 

• K9BreedsPatchMMM.esp

 

For compatibilty with Mart's Mutant Mod. This extra esp file is not installed though as the fomod (I'm guessing) checks for installed mods at this time MMM hasn't been installed yet.

 

Is this file needed?

Bornagain Combat Armor

MedRes 

HighRes 

Cleaning 

• Author: EmeraldReign and Cabal120
• Version: v1.02
• Fallout NV Equivalent: Bornagain Combat Armor an equivalent mod by the same author.
• Installation: Lite versions: Get the "BornagainCombatArmor2048" and "BornagainAnchorageCombatArmor2048" and install separately with MO. Get the optional "BornagainGhoulCombatArmor4096" and "BornagainZetaCombatArmor4096" and install if desired; these two need to be optimized with DDSopt to reduce the texture size.

Combat armor is big, bulky, and makes soldiers look ridiculous, which is the most accurate representation of combat armor. This will just make it look more big, bulky, and ridiculous.

 

This mod has a "cleaning" tag, but none of the files installed is an ESP or ESM, so nothing to clean.

eXcalibr - ammo eXpansion pack

Core 

LowRes 

• Author: Earache42
• Version: v2.3
• Requirements: CALIBR (installed as part of FWE - FO3 Wanderers Edition )
• Fallout NV Equivalent: CaliberX a port of the mod to FNV.
• Installation: Get and install the "eXcalibr_Ammo_Pack_v2-3_Full_FOMOD" main file.

If the external fomod installer is used (not typically needed with MO 1.3.x) there are two Override options; do not install these. After the main mod is installed install the "Weapons patch for 20th Century Weapons" and [Merge] it with the main file. Double click the mod in the left pane of MO and move CALIBR.esm to Optional ESPs; FWE provides this plugin.

The greatest bullet mod ever created.

 

If not installing the 20th Century Weapons mod does one need the "Weapons patch for 20th Century Weapons" ?!?  It's written as if it's needed no matter what.

20th Century Weapons

Optional 

LowRes 

Optimize 

• Author: Einherjrar
• Version: v5.12
• Requirements: CALIBR (installed as part of FWE - FO3 Wanderers Edition)
• Notes: This mod includes hundreds of weapons including many not included in any other Fallout 3 mod; it is labelled as optional since a number of users don't feel the need to add so many new weapons to the game. It was previously on the Nexus but is unfortunately no longer there. The main host site in the url above only allows download requests from a limited set of countries, and it requires answering a survey question before downloading. (See GameFront download policy). Alternatively version 5.1 of the mod is also available here, and the version 5.12 update is available on the Files tab of the same mod page here. The Mods Reloaded site also has an additional file 19th and 20th Century weapon conditions fix on the Files tab with a plugin that retains weapon condition when adding/removing scopes, silencers, etc. vs. fully repairing the weapon when doing this.

 

The link in the title (20th Century Weapons) links to Gamefront which has now closed down and been taken over by The Escapist. Change link or remove link?

The Wasteland Patch Collection

• Author: Deadmano
• Version: v1.4
• Notes: This mod includes a set of patches to improve mod compatibility; many of these patches address compatibility among mods in this guide. For example, one of the patches restores some subrecords from UPDATED Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch andFWE - FO3 Wanderers Edition that are not included in Descriptive Icons for Fallout 3. If multiple patches are installed from this mod it is recommend that Merge Plugins xEdit Script is used to combine the patches in the mod to reduce plugin count.

Since the patches are loaded after the bashed patch to prevnt problems with Wrye Bash, any FormID list or Leveled List subrecords from other mods not included in lists contained in the patches will need to be manually inserted into these lists with xEdit or they won't be used. Pne example of this is that the Zealotlees ACR won't be in the list of weapons available to Supermutants. The TWPC patches add all the plugins needed by a patch to the list of master plugins for a patch even though some of these are not actually master plugins. This was done to help users remember which plugins are needed for use of the patch even through some aren't actually master files. This has unfortunately caused a lot of confusion among users of the patches. These show up in MO when you right click the plugin in the right pane of MO. Some of them like diff.esp are not actually masters so the game itself ignores this addition. Since they are not actually masters the game itself will ignore this addition. If desired, open a TWPC plugin in xEdit, right click and use the Clean Masters command it will remove these falsely-labeled master plugins that are not actually masters. There is no need to try to add these additions elsewhere with Wrye Flash or xEdit. These falsely-labeled master plugins can safely be eliminated (if desired) when merging plugins with Wrye Flash or in the plugins included when using the Merge Plugins xEdit Script.

 

 

 

Red emphasis mine..

 

Okay.. I'd love to do that... how? :)

The Wasteland Patch Collection

 

 

Problem:

The FOMOD instructions advice to choose or not choose certain options depending on if you are installing the last option, the STEP option. Problem is that you don't know if you are installing the last option, before you actually get to it.

 

Solution:

Have a small text before the FOMOD options explaining what is needed to install the STEP patch so it's easier to decide while going through the options.

[JUNKdeLUXE]

Conditional Patches List  and  Conditional Mods

As these options are after the Wasteland Patch Collection, do I keep them below (ie. bigger priority number) then the Wasteland Patch Collection in the left pane?

 

As I understand it, no matter what the Wasteland Patch Collection should always - WITHOUT exceptions - be lowest (ie highest priority) in the right pane?

 

RH_IronSights FWE- WMK compatible

Core 

Cleaning 

• Author: stabbycarrot
• Version: vlatest
• Requirements: FWE - FO3 Wanderers Edition., WMK, RH_Ironsights (original version or the recommended Paradox Ignition merged version).
• Notes: This mod allow iron sights to be used with all FWE modded weapons without messing up their damage values.
• Installation: Download and install the ESP patch file with MO.

This mod combines the "WeaponModKits - FWE Master Release" plugin from "FOIP - Weapon Mod Kits and FWE 6-03" and the "RH_WMK_Bridge" plugin from RH_Ironsights, so those two plugins are no longer needed.

 

 

 

Red emphasis mine

 

Am I to understand this as if I can (read: SHOULD) go back and move these plugins to the optional EPSs?

[JUNKdeLUXE]

 

Run LOOT

Open LOOT through Mod Organizer and sort the mod list. LOOT does not have Unrecognized Plugins since it uses computer algorithms to sort the files, but check the plugin order and use LOOT to look at conflicting plugins and to move plugins when needed. LOOT will remember these changes for future runs. The video LOOT : Load Order Optimisation (by GamerPoets) is for Skyrim but the steps are the same in Fallout 3.

LOOT uses a file named userlist.yaml located in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\LOOT\Fallout3 that contains any local changes to the LOOT masterlist. A version of this file for use with this guide is available here. The userlist.yaml file extracted from this download can be copied to that location, or if a user has already created entries in userlist.yaml the data in this file can be added to the existing userlist.yaml. The file for the guide includes recent updates to Bash tags and plugin cleaning needs, and some plugin order data designed specifically for users of this guide. The Bash tag and mod cleaning data will gradually show up in the LOOT masterlist, while the plugin order data will not as it is specific to this guide. The file for this guide will be updated frequently since a new script is available that makes identifying useful Bash tags much easier, so if you use this file check the guide to regularly to see if it has been updated. The most recent update was 7/3/2015. There may be a few plugins that are not yet in the masterlist. If a mod has a cleaning indicator in the guide and LOOT does not mention that one or more plugins need cleaning, it is recommended that the xEdit cleaning process is used on plugins in the mod in case they need cleaning.

 

 

 

Red emphasis mine

 

I'm not sure if I would call this regularly. If the date is wrong is should be updated, if it's correct then maybe remove the point about it being updated regularly.

[JUNKdeLUXE]

Add Bash Tags
 
 
There is a big difference between the 2 suggested methods (manual and script) of adding Bash Tags to the various plugins. Not knowing anything about Bash Tags and what effect they have in game, I'll try to list the differences between what LOOT tells you to add and what the xEdit script "Generate Tags for Wrye Bash" adds automatically.
 
The big difference in these 2 methods could potentially have a big impact on your game (I guess?). Which of the 2 methods are correct? are both correct? With this "research" I hope to uniform the result no matter which of these 2 methods you use.
 
 
Please have in mind, I have ONLY tested those plugins that LOOT mentions should have Bash Tags added. This potentially means that xEdit could have added or removed Bash Tags from all the other plugins not mentioned in the LOOT output!!!!

Now that I'm doing doing my first batch of adding Bash Tags (via the xEdit script) I'm left with a feeling that something is rotten in Denmark (and I live here :) ) Because there is such great difference in what LOOT suggests and what xEdit suggests.
 
Which of the 2 methods do I follow? do I follow both so I add tags from both sides? What do Bash Tags even do, and what effect will it have on my game if I skip a tag or 2?
 
This step in Clear and Present Danger has been the one filled with most irritation for me, because had I not done the work I've just done, I would have no idea that there were such big differences between the 2 methods. That means that my install will be different from another persons, it will make troubleshooting difficult, some problems happen to some people, but not to others? It's an administrative hell :)
 
Kelmych, I'd love if you could take your time to completely rebuild this step so we're all doing the same thing, and for my install I also need to know if I should trust xEdit or if I should trust LOOT...
 
 
 
Thanks in advance.
