FNV File SummaryThere are zero file types associated with the FNV File Extension, with the most widely-observed being the Binary Data format. According to our database, zero distinct software programs (conventionally, Binary Data developed by Unknown Developer) will enable you to view these files.The majority of FNV files are considered.They are both mobile and desktop device friendly.With a Popularity Rating of 'Medium', these files aresomewhat commonto your average computer user.Although there is a lot more to know about FNV files, those are the most important details of these types of files. If you are having trouble opening these files, or would like more detailed information, please see our comprehensive information below.Open your files in%%os%% with FileViewPro File ViewerOptional Offer for FileViewPro by Solvusoft. Tip: If you know of another program that can open your FNV file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed. Wrong Version of Binary Data is InstalledIn some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Binary Data file that is unsupported by your installed application version.
If you do not have the proper version Binary Data (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize. Other Causes of FNV File Opening ProblemsAlthough you might already have Binary Data or another FNV-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening Binary Data files.
If you are still having problems opening FNV files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. Occasionally you might experience a flawed software installation, which may be due to a problem encountered during the install process. This can prevent your operating system from associating your FNV file with the right software application, affecting what is known as 'file extension associations'.Sometimes, simply reinstalling Binary Data will solve your problem, properly associating your FNV with Binary Data. Other times, poor software programming on behalf of the software developer can cause problems with file associations, and you may need to contact the developer for further assistance.
If all other steps fail, and you are still experiencing problems opening FNV files, it might be due to a lack of available system resources. Some versions of FNV files can require substantial resources (eg. Memory/RAM, processing power) to be properly opened by your computer. This is quite common if your computer hardware is older, and you are using a much newer operating system.This issue can occur when your computer is having a hard time keeping up because the operating system (and other services running in the background) might be consuming too many resources for your FNV file to open. Try closing all applications on your PC before attempting to open your Binary Data. Freeing up all of the available resources on your computer provides the best environment for attempting to open your FNV file. If you've tried all of the steps above, and your FNV file still won't open, you might be due for a hardware upgrade.
In most cases, even if you have older hardware, processing power is still more than adequate for most user's applications (unless you do a lot of CPU resource-intensive work such as 3D rendering, financial / scientific modeling, or intensive multimedia work). Therefore, it's likely that your computer is lacking the necessary amount of memory (more commonly referred to as 'RAM', or random access memory) to complete the file opening task.Try upgrading your memory to see if that helps you open your FNV file. These days, memory upgrades are quite affordable and very easy for even the casual computer user to install in their PC. As a bonus, you'll probably see a nice performance bump in other tasks carried out on your computer.

ENBoost v0.203 patch for Fallout 3 / New VegasThis is adaptation of code i did for TES Skyrim to reduce memory usage of the game and to fix most CTDs (crashes to desktop) because of 'out of memory' issue when many mods installed. Don't know if this problem exist for Fallout games, but let it be, if it's important, i'll add this to ENBSeries for Fallout, but now it's just a patch without any changes to graphics. What it's doing?
Utilize your videocard memory much better, compress resources and send them to enbhost.exe process, so you can install more mods with x64 OS (up to 4 gb game use by default and with this it's max about 10 gb at this moment).POSTING THE ENBSERIES BINARY FILES ON NEXUS SITES IS STRICTLY PROHIBITEDv0.194: Removed fix for transparency bug of some objects, because by uknown reason it not work for some users and makes objects transparent.

The DLC for Fallout: New Vegas is out on Friday. The announes that a humongous patch is set to arrive alongside the expansion. The update will add make 'massive world optimizations' and add a pre-ending sequence autosave for players who want to jump straight back into the New Vegas with all their gear.
A swarm of miscellaneaous bugs have exterminated for good measure. You'll find the full list of patch changes next to lots of little red boxes below. New feature: system save is automatically created prior to endgame sequence. After credits, user is prompted to load save game. This will allow single save players to play DLC without creating a new game. Fixed issue where Minigun audio could get stuck/keep playing indefinitely when fired out of VATS. Script fix to restore destroyed ED-E.
This should address issues players have with attempting to use certain companions (e.g. Rex) or when the player needs to clear his or her companions before entering an area (e.g. Zion / Honest Hearts). New “Companion Dismissal Terminals” added to Gun Runners and Lucky 38.
Contents.Overview If you aren't aware as yet, it's pretty much universally recognized that the default install location used by Steam (to the 'C:Program Files' folder tree) is a problem area due to the anti-malware security measures taken with it since the release of Windows Vista. Many unexplained problems are directly related to this location. Save yourself a lot of potential frustration and grief in the future by taking the time to move your Steam game (and really all games that did not come already installed) to a different location. The wiki article covers the reasons and procedure for moving Steam games.If you are new to using 'mods' with games on the PC, or just want some tips on how to quickly get using mods with 'Fallout New Vegas' (or FNV as it is known) with the least amount of hassle, this is the place to start.
This article broadly covers things you should know, and points you to more in-depth articles on particular subjects.Just to clarify: 'Fallout New Vegas' (2010) still uses the same 'Gamebryo Engine' as 'The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind' (2002), 'The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion' (2006), and 'Fallout 3' (2008). The 'Creation Engine' is an in-house engine created by Bethesda Game Studios (XnGine being the previous in-house engine by Bethesda) for Skyrim (2011), Fallout 4 (2015), and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition (2016). The 'Creation Engine' offers 'basic real-time shadows and more detail to distant objects.
The updated version of the 'Creation Engine'. Offers physically-based rendering, dynamic volumetric lighting, and more advanced character generation.It is important to keep the distinctions between engines in mind when attempting to transfer 'lessons learned' or tools from one game to another. The games based upon the Gamebryo engine tended to build upon prior knowledge from the older games, while games built upon the 'Creation' engine tended to 'go their own way' in important aspects.Terminology A 'mod' is a package (archive) of related files that make some change to the vanilla game (including official 'Down Loadable Content' (DLC) expansions as delivered by the publisher). The 'file extension', the characters after the last period ('.' ) reading left to right in the filename, indicate which program was used to create the archive package. (You can use the site to look up those you are not familiar with.) The ones most commonly used for mods on the 'Nexus Mods' site are '.7z' (created by the program), and '.rar' (created by the program.
There are a number of alternative tools which can unpack those types of archive files, but each archive tool has mutiple 'formats' in which it can compress a file. Some of these may be 'proprietary' and exclusive to a particular program, while most are common among many programs. 7Zip is the most commonly used program as it can unpack the most common, non-proprietary '.rar' formats as well as '.zip' files (a predecessor format, now natively supported by Windows).Within a 'mod' package are a number of 'asset files' which add to or replace the existing vanilla assets (meshes, textures, sounds, animations, XML files, etc.), and one or more 'plugin files' that tell the game about the existence and use of the new assets and where they are placed in the game. The 'plugin' files are the only ones that appear in the 'load order' (see below). 'Plugin' files have one of two possible file extensions: ESM and ESP.
There is generally only one ESM file, but there may be any number of ESP files (including none). The ESM files are loaded first, and are considered 'masters' to the ESP files that depend upon them. You should find all of your ESM files (vanilla, DLC, and mod) at the top of your 'load order'.' Modding' refers to both the process of playing the game with mods installed, and to creating such mods. More properly we should distinguish between 'mod users' and 'mod creators', but most people rely upon the context in which the term is used rather than explicitly stating which is meant.There are two important 'orders' to which you must learn and understand the distinction because they are going to come up over and over again: 'install order' and 'load order'.
'Install Order' refers to the sequence in which mods are 'installed' into the game 'Data' folder. Later installed mods that have a file with the same folder path and filename will need to overwrite previously installed files in the same location. So the last installed 'wins', as there can only be one file with a given name in a given folder. With mod managers, this can become less obvious than it would appear at first glance.
Some mod managers allow you to 'move' around the sequence of installed mods, and then resolve the new 'winners'. This is possible only if they have a copy of the 'vanilla' files to restore from when needed. Read the documentation of your chosen mod manager carefully to see how (if at all) this is implemented. The 'vanilla' files are typically all stored in '.BSA' extension archive files, but some 'loose' files (not in a '.BSA' file but visible as individual files) may exist in folders under the 'Data' folder. Therefor, best practice is to make a backup copy of the entire 'Data' folder somewhere outside of the game folder.
Then you will always have the original files and can compare the contents to see what has changed. For a solid guide (regardless of which Bethesda game) to organizing the sequence of mod installation, see. 'Load Order' refers to the sequence in which the game loads '.ESM' and '.ESP' (collectively called 'plugin' files) when the game is launched. These two files in turn take care of loading the 'assets' (sound, meshes, textures, etc.) from the mod into the game. Most of your problems with running mods will come down to problems with your 'load order' because two (or more) mods are trying to modify the same 'data record' in the vanilla files (both the original game and the DLC expansions. Similarly to the situation with 'install order', the last loaded plugin 'wins' out over all previous plugins that conflict by default, in an all or nothing manner. IF the other plugins make changes to other records that the 'winner' doesn't touch, they still lose out and those changes do not take effect.
This is known as 'the rule of one', and is why 'proper sorting' of your 'load order' is so important. Those files that are 'lower' (relative to the 'Fallout.ESM' files; higher numbered) in your 'load order' will be the 'winners' of conflicts. Fortunately there is a way to get around this 'all or nothing' winner in 'load order' by using a 'merged patch' file that resolves conflicts on a 'last modified record field' winner basis.
This enables multiple mods to change a record as long as they are the only one changing a particular field within that record. In the case of record field conflicts, the same 'rule of one' applies. More on this topic later in a linked article.For the user, a mod package essentially has three 'states': 'downloaded', 'installed', and 'activated'. Downloaded: the mod package has been copied from a server on the Internet (i.e. The Nexus Mods website) to a location on your computer. Installed: the 'downloaded' mod archive package has been 'unpacked' and the package/archive contents 'installed' into the same or a different folder (i.e.
A 'Mods' or the game 'Data' folder) on your computer. Activated (aka 'Enabled'): The game has been instructed to load the plugin as part of it's 'load order'. For FNV, this means it has had the 'checkbox' enabled in the 'Data' option of the first game menu.
Mod Managers take care of this for you when the plugin is enabled/activated in their interface.For some mod managers (i.e. 'WB/WF' and 'FOMM'; see under below), 'installation' means the mod files have been copied into the game 'Data' folder or sub-folders. This 'install order' is independent of the 'load order', and is considered the 'traditional' form of installation. Tekken 7 tier list. For others (i.e. 'MO' and 'NMM'), the 'mod' or 'install info' folder is separate from the game folders, and only 'links' to the actual files are placed in the game 'Data' folders, and that only when the mod plugins are 'activated'.
In these mod managers, the 'install order' initially equals the 'load order', and changes when the 'load order' of the plugins is re-sorted. However, mods often include the previously mentioned 'asset files' that are placed in sub-folders under 'Data', which are used instead of vanilla versions of those files.
Merely 'deactivating' a mod plugin does not remove such added or restore replaced files, so the mod must be either uninstalled or it's unused/unwanted 'asset' files manually removed from the 'Data' folder path so the vanilla versions will be used. The game engine still loads every file it finds in the 'Data' folder into memory and checks it's references for 'master files', regardless of it's 'active' state.
This is why they count against your 'plugin cap' (described later). If it fails to find any of such referenced masters, it causes a 'missing master' CTD without warning. This is the primary reason you can't use a patch file designed for mods you do not have installed, as they will always be missing the 'master' plugin of the absent mod and 'mysteriously' crash.Most mod packages are 'simple' in structure and can be installed with any mod manager. They just need to have all their contents installed into the correct folders under the game 'Data' folder, which is what all mod managers assume.
They normally have any sub-folders already included in the archive. You should always 'overwrite' any existing files they encounter with the same name. (This is why 'install order' is significant.
Last installed is the last to overwrite, and the only version of that filename to exist.) Note that some mods, such as Script Extender plugins and tools like FNVEdit, need to be placed elsewhere than under the 'Data' folder, which is why they should not be installed with a mod manager.Some mod packages are more complex, with optional files that need to be copied when other specific mod files are also found to already have been installed. The mod may have specific instructions in the provided documentation (aka 'ReadMe.txt' files), or on the download page, or under 'optional files' on the mod's 'Files' page. But some have 'scripts' or 'wizards' which the manager will automatically execute (if it recognizes them) that will detect the files of the other mods they are designed to work with, and automatically install the correct components or offer you options to choose among. (This is especially true of FOMM mods.) However, these 'scripts' are not 'universal' in that they do not work will all mod managers. Such scripted mods will normally specify on the download page which mod manager they require to process their 'wizard' (i.e.
'install with FOMM').It is not absolutely required that you use the mod manager a script is designed for, if you don't care about actually executing the script and know how to interpret it. The script itself is a text file with basic 'if. Else' style instructions you can follow manually or rewrite into a different scripting language if you have the skill set.

But most will find it easier to simply use the manager the script is written for. However, mod managers generally only can 'manage' mods they themselves install. They won't 'know' about mods installed by other managers unless they happen to place them where expected. ('Management' in this case typically refers to 'installing', 'uninstalling', and 'restoring' the previously existing mod components cleanly, as opposed to 'activation'. Depending upon how your manager works, it may be relatively easy to get it to 'activate/deactivate' plugins from sources it did not manage.) So it normally is beneficial to plan ahead and use the mod manager suited to the majority of mods you plan to install.There is an important consideration with 'complex' structured mod packages (i.e. ' being a popular example of this).
YOU need to know which 'optional' components or 'compatibility patches' are needed. (Often others than the original mod author will produce 'compatibility patches' for additional mods. Be sure to seek them out by searching on both the 'full name' and 'nickname' of the primary mod, such as 'Fallout Character Overhaul' and 'FCO', as well as under the 'optional files' of the secondary mod, like one for 'Hair styles'.) Installing package component files that are not needed can prevent the game from starting. (See the entry on below.) Do not install every optional file without a reason: pick and choose only those you know are needed. It is much easier to add a missing optional file later than it is to figure out which are not needed and are preventing the game from loading. Seek assistance on the Forums when in doubt.'
Post Processing' is used in the video and film industry to improve the quality of images once they have been processed. In real-time 3D games, they are applied to the rendered effects to supplement the game engine.According to:Instead of rendering 3D objects directly to the display, the scene is first rendered to a buffer in the memory of the video card. Pixel shaders and optionally Vertex shaders are then used to apply post-processing filters to the image buffer before displaying it to the screen. Some post-processing effects also require multiple-passes, gamma inputs, vertex manipulation and depth buffer access.
Post-processing allows effects to be used that require awareness of the entire image (since normally each 3D object is rendered in isolation).There is a whole host of effects that can be produced. See the sub-topic if this interests you.First Timer Advice Bandwidth Considerations refers to how much data (measured in bits) you can move between point A and point B in a given period of time. All Internet communications consume bandwidth. In the most general terms, the faster your connection speed ('bits per second' or 'Mega bps' or 'Giga bps'), the more bandwidth you have at any given moment. However, the amount of data you have to move has to be divided into 'packets' that do not exceed your bandwidth.
So, the more data you have to move over a given bandwidth, the longer it will take. This is called your 'throughput data rate'. For this reason you generally want to minimize the amount of data that has to use bandwidth to increase your 'throughput data rate'. Your 'Internet Service Provider' (ISP) typically has a maximum amount of data transfer each month or given period called a 'monthly data transfer cap', after which it charges you extra or 'throttles down' your available bandwidth to a slower throughput rate.The Steam Client has to be running in order to play a 'Steam' game. As this (in 'online mode') consumes bandwidth, if you have a slower connection speed or 'low transfer cap' you will want to take steps to minimize how much throughput the Client requires. If this is a concern for you, please read one of the articles:.However, if you previously setup the 'Steam Client' (under 'Steam Settings') by disabling (unchecking) the 'Don't save account credentials on this computer' option at the bottom of the page so it will save your account data locally, then you can start the Client in 'offline mode' and play the game even without an Internet connection.
NOTE: Do not use xEdit with any 'mod organizer' or other 'plugin aware' tool open at the same time. While some might be compatible with sharing the plugin with xEdit, others grab the file with a 'write lock' to prevent any other program from changing things. Play it safe and give xEdit exclusive access unless you are absolutely positive they are compatible.According to the: 'All plugins from the Data folder are sorted into 2 groups by extension (and extension only, ESM flag in plugin's header doesn't matter):.ESM and.ESP, then each group is sorted by plugin's file timestamp. Then xEdit loads all ESM, then all ESPs. The order of masters in plugins doesn't affect anything.' This suggests that whenever possible, you should move any 'false ESM flagged' ESP files to the bottom of the list of ESM files in your load order if you want xEdit to match your game 'load order' when it loads or sorts a plugin's master files.For those who wish to use a manual sorting process, see the wiki article for one such approach to FNV.Also recommended is the S.T.E.P. Project 'Fear and Loathing' guide for FNV (linked below under the sub-topic).
While oriented around using 'Mod Organizer' (MO), it can be used with other mod managers as well, with appropriate changes for their peculiarities.' Auto-saves' are dangerous because they are seldom able to tell when the game is in the middle of doing something else critical. Most importantly, completely disable all manner of autosaves in the game options. The and mods attempt to provide more control over such situations. Provides timed interval 'full saves' without all the features of CASM, but only keeps 5 versions before it starts overwriting older files after the 5th save. They are all better than the built-in mechanism, but don't rely upon any auto-save exclusively. Manual 'full saves' after waiting about five seconds with nothing happening are still safest.
Also, you can use to create a new 'quick save' file every time, which is safer than overwriting an existing file. You will need to periodically clean old ones out (they count against the total number of 1000 save files you are allowed), but the purpose of a quick save is as a 'temp' for safety's sake rather than a place to resume the game session from. They do not save as much data as a 'full save'. QSaves are best reloaded when you are still in the same cell (preferably in the same position) as when you saved. And always remember the when loading any save.Should you 'Clean' the game master files?
The internet is full of mixed advice, and it varies over time. We know more now than back in 2010.
The current argument is that it should be the responsibility of the mod author to 'clean' a plugin, as they presumably know what needs to be there for their mod to work correctly. By the time of FO3 and FNV, the 'dirty edits' and ITMs/UDRs in mods were well known to be an issue. Any present in the Fallout games and DLCs presumably are either necessary or harmless. So, as a general rule the advice is to leave the vanilla and DLC master files for both games alone unless you have very specific reasons for doing otherwise.
BOSS and LOOT numbers are based on user reports of what they found. The mere fact that ITM/UDR records exist is no longer a reason to clean them out. Guidance varies by game and edition of the xEdit tool.The 'Tales of Two Wastelands' (TTW) team has had to look into the matter in order to get FO3 to run on the FNV game engine. Their FAQ page has the following:» I read everywhere that we should clean Skyrim core files (.esm &.esp), so by association I decided to do the same to my Fallout games, did I do the right thing? «I am sorry, but you did the wrong thing.
Fallout is not Skyrim, and so not everything that works for one also works for the other, they don't even use the same game engine. Note that 'Mod Organizer' (MO) uses its own copies of the 'Users' INI files 'Fallout.ini' and 'FalloutPrefs.ini' (from when the MO profile was created), located in 'steamappscommonFallout New VegasMod Organizerprofiles'.Restoring to 'Vanilla' It is often useful to have a copy of the original, unmodified game for testing purposes with a saved game just after you have created a basic character, or if a mod conflict forces you to 'start over'.Sometimes, if you didn't plan ahead for this, you want to restore the game to the original 'vanilla' state, for instance to restore an original file. The following 'verify files' procedure will NOT remove any mod plugins or asset files it finds in the game 'Data' folder, nor any files in the 'Users' folder, but will restore any files in the game root folder with the same name as vanilla ones that do not match the originals on the Steam server.
This can break a mod that intentionally replaced a vanilla file, so it is best to re-install mods after you 'verify'.If you made any changes to any of the game INI files, remember to change it in all three files. (See the section.) Otherwise you tend to lose track of which you actually changed if you have to 'verify files' or re-install. Note that if you are currently or have used 'Mod Organizer', MO uses its own copies of 'Fallout.ini' and 'FalloutPrefs.ini' (from when the MO profile was created), located in 'steamappscommonFallout New VegasMod Organizerprofiles'. As of 21 March 2017, the 'Lutana NVSE Plugin' has been merged into the (version 40.0 and later) following Lutana's removal from the Nexis site. You don't need the 'FNVLODGen NMC LOD texture fix-58562' with 'Much Needed LOD - NMC Patch-64805-1-1'. They do the same thing for landscape LOD. You also don't need 'LODadditions-update-61206-1-06'.
This was an update file for that mod from v1.05 to v1.06 (and you should already have v1.06).Other optional mods (such as the ' mod) load before or after those that conflict depending upon which you prefer to win. Run FNVLODGEN.exe.
(If you have your game installed under the 'C:Program Files' tree, then you will need to have 'Administrator' privileges.). UNCHECK 'tree LOD' if you have Vurts floral overhaul installed.
Otherwise, enable it. Select ALL Worldspaces. Generate LODIt is necessary to leave any ESP files for these LOD resources 'active' in your 'load order' after re-running FNVLODGen to ensure that the LOD meshes unload when seen up close. However, they are usually 'fully mergeable' into the 'Bash Patch' file.Testing 'Testing' is not about 'playing'.
It's about pushing boundaries and isolating problems that tend to only show up in the 'edge cases'. There are so many possible permutations of mod combinations no one mod creator can test them all. You can't count on anyone else to have tested your particular combination of mods.You want to keep your 'test' save files and your 'game' save files separate.

The easy way is to simply rename the 'C:UsersDocumentsMy GamesFalloutNVSaves' folder to something like 'Saves - Game'; and create a new, empty 'Saves' folder to replace it.In very general terms, you want to create a 'test character' just for that purpose. Simply take the defaults, unless you are testing a 'character overhaul' mod. But 'quick and dirty' is all you need; don't waste time customizing it. Once you get past the character generation, make a 'full save' using the Menu 'Save Game' option (not a quick or auto- save). This will become your 'baseline test' starting point; as close to 'vanilla' as is practical. Make a backup copy of this save game somewhere else.Now use the console (typically the ' key) to toggle on 'God Mode' ('tgm').
This is so you can go places a 1st level character normally can't with impunity.GoodSprings is a good initial test cell because many mods initialize scripts there and you will be able to notice game lag as a result of scripts running pretty quickly. One known culprit in this regard is the 'Cheat chest' from the 'Weapons of the New Millenia' mod.
If you initially don't see a problem, this is good. But if you do while in GoodSprings after installing a new mod, then you have an idea as to why.Run around GoodSprings, into and out of buildings, interact with NPCs, etc. Then push outside of the GoodSprings cell (just ignore the opportunity to modify your character, which is how you know you're leaving that cell for the first time) into the wastelands. Be sure to test the Pipboy first (default: ) and equip both armor (even though you are invincible in 'tgm' mode) and weapons. Go play with the Geckos to the NE and test both 'First Person View' (FPV) and 'Third Person View' (TPV) aiming to check for the differences and see if there are any animation or aiming point issues.From this point you want to get to areas of the game that stress various aspects of it. Toggle on the console command 'tmm 1' to show all map markers so you can 'fast travel' to them. ('Fast travel' is one of the things you want to test anyway.

But be sure to turn off the built-in game 'AutoSave' feature first. You don't generally need save files while testing, and that will corrupt them.) Places with lots of NPCs, such as battlefields ('Camp Forlorn Hope', 'Camp Searchlight', and 'Cottonwood Cove'), rich textures (i.e. 'Zion Canyon' of Honest Hearts and 'Red Rock Canyon' where the Khans hang out), and cities which are their own cell 'worldspaces' such as 'Free Side' and 'New Vegas'. If you are testing a mod that adds new locations, be sure to test those locations. Whatever a mod is supposed to bring to the game is what you need to test as hard as possible to see if it 'breaks'. Don't forget to also work through changes to the HUD, UI, or Menus such as MCM if they are affected by a newly added mod.Anywhere you see a 'loading' screen is changing between exterior and interior cells, or loading a new 'worldspace'.
Things operate differently between the two so be sure you include such cell changes in your tests. When running through the wastelands you will also trigger cell changes, but these will be less obvious.
But they are where your character may seem to momentarily 'pause' for no apparent reason. The longer pauses are called 'stuttering', and mean you are pushing the limits of what your graphic system can handle. The pause is the result of it having to load graphics out of the video memory (VRAM) and then load in the graphics from disk.
The more 'high resolution' your graphics, the less room there is to 'pre-load' adjacent cells into the same amount of VRAM, and the more likely you are to get stuttering. There are also INI file settings that affect this. (See the 'TweakGuide's General Fallout Guide' link in the sub-topic.)Once you feel you have tested a new mod addition sufficiently and haven't encountered any unresolved problems, make a new 'full save' and leave the mod in your 'load order'. In future tests, you will probably want to start from this 'cumulative modded test' save point, but may on occasion (depending upon the mod) want to start from the 'baseline test' save. You should delete older test saves between those two just to keep the used disk space down.Now repeat the same test cycle with the next mod you add to your 'load order'.When you have tested all your mods and have eliminated conflicts, rename the 'C:UsersDocumentsMy GamesFalloutNVSaves' folder to something like 'Saves - Test'; and rename your 'Saves - Game' folder back to just 'Saves' (or create a new, empty 'Saves' folder). Whichever version of those two 'Saves' folders ('Saves -Test' or 'Saves - Game') is NOT present is the one which is the current 'Saves' folder.Now build your 'game character', this time with the full mod 'load order' installed and functional, and again save after the character generation.
Be sure to disable the game 'Auto-Save' feature, and now you can play in earnest. But remember, if you want to add any mods once you start playing, restore the 'Saves - Test' folder as the current 'Saves', and test fully before adding it to your existing game.You do not want to ever remove a mod once you have included it in your saved game file. Common Game Problems These usually occur shortly after loading a 'save game' in your first 50 or hours of play, or trying to get past the 'loading screens' to the game's Main Menu, or after you made a change to your 'install or load order'.If the vanilla game (no active mods) launched without problem, most likely you have a problem.All of the following may not apply to your specific situation, but are worth repeating anyway. These are the most common solutions to problems. Be aware that one error may mask a number of other errors, which will not appear until those masking them have been resolved. Building a stable game consists of resolving each problem individually until none remain, and then realizing that every change you make thereafter (including updates to mods already installed) run the risk of introducing new problems.
Be prepared to revert to a previous save if you do so. Did you install Steam to it's default location?
If so, please see the wiki ' article for why the original default Steam behavior of installing games to the 'C:Program Files' folder tree was bad (they learned better, and don't do that any more); and why 'disabling UAC and running as Administrator' is NOT sufficient, with instructions how to move it. This is the single most important thing you can do to fix and protect yourself against problems in the future. As much of a PITA as that is, it's never going to be any easier than now.
Please see the section of this article as well.If you did move Steam out of the default location, then likely any access privilege problem is one of ' on the parent 'root' folder under which you installed the games. If this is not set correctly to allow at least 'System', 'Administrators', and 'Users' to have 'Full Control' then you can't overwrite other files or make changes. You then need to enable the 'Properties Security Advanced Change Permissions' setting of the parent folder to enable the box: 'Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object', so those changes get applied to the existing files and sub-folders. Are you running Win10?
Did you get the 'Fall Creator's Update' of 2017 (FCU aka 'RedStone 3')? Do you have 'New Vegas Stutter Remover' (NVSR) installed?
If all three are 'true', then please see the ' and ' entries in the 'Solutions to 'Crash To Desktop' (CTD) problems' section in the wiki ' guide.These 'Creator's Updates' are Microsoft's replacement to the old 'new release' and 'service pack' improvement and bug-fix mechanism. They are scheduled to occur every six months, so they will be in the 'Spring' and 'Fall' of each year.
The FCU 2017 update was released in mid-November 2017, so a 'brand new' system probably did not come with it installed. However, the default configuration is usually to have OS updates automatically installed. (Those usually start being distributed on the second Tuesday of each month, but may take a week or more to get to everyone.) See the MS ' article for how to check your version release and manually pull down the update if necessary. It is important to keep your OS always 'up to date' to prevent malware infections. If you are suddenly having a 'slowdown' or lag; or a lack of sound; or problems getting NVSE to load, or really anything new unexpectedly, please see the ' entry in the wiki ' guide. This may be due to a Windows Update for the ' Meltdown and Spectre Vulnerabilities'.
Are you using the 4GB Patcher? If not, please see the section of this article. The game has 'memory leaks'. Getting 2-3 hours before a CTD is pretty good. You might want to try using the tool ', which periodically (you can set the interval; default is every 15 minutes) tells the OS to perform it's built-in 'clean up' of memory. It has a 'mini-monitor' that displays memory usage.

Doesn't seem to hurt and might help. If you are using the full 4GB of memory, most likely your CTD problem (now or in the future) is the default 'heap size' is too small. It's so common you might as well deal with it now. Please see the ' entry in the 'Solutions to 'Crash To Desktop' (CTD) problems' section in the wiki ' guide. Move any 'inactive' plugins out of the game 'Data' folder.
They count against the 'plugin cap' because they get loaded by the game engine if found, and can cause 'Missing Master' problems. Please see the wiki ' article if you get that error message.
Don't install every optional file for a mod. Read the install instructions carefully.
Optional files need to be selected on a 'case by case' basis. For example: with any mod you usually only need one ESP (and possibly one ESM) 'base' file depending upon whether you have all the DLCs active or not. Only if you don't have them all active do you need to install any specific DLC versions if there is an 'Ultimate Edition/ All/Merged DLC' version. 'Compatibility patches' to make one mod work with another need to be placed after (as in 'physically lower, higher numbered') in the 'load order' than all of the plugins they are designed to make compatible. ESMs should always be placed at the top (lowest numbered) positions in the 'load order', followed by the related ESPs though they can be separated from their ESMs by other plugins.
' does a good job of determining those basic orders. Getting the 'load order' incorrect will cause 'Missing Master' errors as well.FYI: The 'pre-order packs' (aka 'POPs': Caravan, Classic, Mercenary, and Tribal; available now in the 'Courier's Stash' addon), are not considered 'true DLC expansions' by most mods and 'compatibility patches' because they just add certain unique items. So their absence should not deter you from using 'All DLC Merged' plugins. Where they are included, they should come after 'GunrunnersArsenal.ESM' which is a true DLC expansion.
When in doubt, follow the process in the wiki 'url=Missing Masters/url' article to confirm they are not 'master files' for that plugin. Don't install compatibility patches for mods you do not have installed/active (e.g. Get rid of any 'TTW' patches if you aren't running TTW). Do not use an 'Auto-purge' mod for game play. (That was old advice from before we knew better.) They are designed for debugging by mod creator's only, according to the author of the JIP extensions to NVSE. See the ', 'Cause-2', 'Solution-3' entry in the wiki ' guide for the game settings that do the same job.
Please see the paragraph about 'auto-saves' under the section of this article. If you have been using the built-in 'auto-save' feature and you get the endless 'roulette wheel' when loading a save game, then your current save game file is corrupted and you will have to either go back to a save before the corruption occurred (hard to tell) or start over. If you have more than one mod that makes any change to the same record or set of records in the vanilla game, then you really need to use a 'Merge Patch File' with that collection of mods. Please see the and sections of this article.See the wiki article ' for tips on getting the basic vanilla game to launch. If you can't manage that, you have a major problem and most likely need to re-install the game outside of the 'C:Program Files' tree as suggested in the sub-topic in this article.Missing Masters The game engine still loads every file it finds in the 'Data' folder into memory and checks it's references for 'master files', regardless of it's 'active' state while determining it's 'load order'.
(The 'master files' are listed in the 'file header' of each plugin.) This is why they count against your 'plugin cap'. If it fails to find any of such referenced masters, it causes a 'missing master' CTD without warning. Similarly, if you attempt to load a 'dependency' plugin prior to loading a 'master' file (which is usually, but not always, an ESM file) that it depends upon for certain assets (i.e. If you have not sorted your 'load order' or have it wrong) it will also result in a 'missing master' situation even though all the files are present. This is especially true of the vanilla game and official DLC plugins which are masters for many mods. The 'pre-order packs' are dependencies of the vanilla game and expansion DLCs. (See the section.)Installing optional package component files that are not needed can prevent the game from starting.
This is the primary reason you can't use a patch file designed for mods you do not have installed, as they will always be missing the 'master' plugin of the absent mod and 'mysteriously' crash.Mods often include 'asset files' that are placed in sub-folders under 'Data', which are used instead of vanilla versions of those files. Merely 'deactivating' a mod plugin does not remove such added (or restore replaced) files, so the mod must be either uninstalled or it's unused/unwanted 'asset' files manually removed from the 'Data' folder path so the vanilla versions will be used.As the game engine fails to report WHY it crashed under these circumstances, we primarily determine it to be a 'missing master' issue by the timing of the crash: when the game is loading files during the display of the 'Main Title loading screens' (aka 'Before the Main Menu') or upon loading a 'save game file' (aka 'After the Main Menu'). This is not to say it can't happen later, upon the first attempt to use an asset that relies upon a missing file, but at least 95% of the time it will show up as a hang or CTD either before or just after the 'Main Menu'.See the wiki article for detailed instructions on identifying and resolving this issue.Mod Conflict Troubleshooting When you run into problems (which you will inevitably) there is the wiki article. It will help you narrow down the most commonly asked questions so you can get more directed help faster. It also contains links to all sorts of essential tools and stability mods, as well as some specific problems and solutions.It's always useful to post your 'Load Order' (LO) with your problem description. (Use the 'Special BBCode' button in the Forum 'Reply' menu bar as the third icon from the left in the top row, next to and left of the 'Font' pick-list field to put the LO in 'Spoiler' tags.) Screenshots are not the best way to convey your LO, because they usually can't include everything in one image.
(mentioned above) can copy your LO into a list suitable for posting on forums. (It's under the ':' with three dots to the extreme right in it's menu bar.) Most 'mod managers' have a similar 'LO List' capability. But the total number of mods you have installed in the DATA folder is also important, because even inactive plugins are counted against the so-called '140 cap'. LOOT provides both numbers: active and total installed.For help interpreting an error log, please see the wiki article.Modding a game takes time if you want the mods to work well together and be stable. Rushing the process will invariably lead to problems. Take the time to read and learn about the many new things that are involved, and you will have a much more enjoyable game when you are finished with the preliminaries.Post processing shaders Within the Bethesda gaming community the primary two graphic enhancements other than texture replacements used are: the ENB Series and the SweetFX Suite of shaders (though others exist). They are 'post processing' effects to enhance the graphic feel of the game as the cost of some processing power and 'frames per second'(FPS).
Their installation can make changes to the INI files in your 'User' account folder.I would suggest you skip them for the time being, until you get a stable game going. If your average FPS is below 30, any post process shader is going to be a massive hit according to this. Only if you are then still interested, the following may be helpful.They are two different approaches to the same issue and can be used together if your system can handle the load.
(Though likely you will have to learn the meaning of the configuration settings to deal with potential conflicts between them, they are considered generally complementary. Those settings, however, are very specific for technical effects and will require educating yourself.)The 'ENB Series' is developed by Boris Vorontsov and consists of a version for a specific game, and is available in either a 'wrapper' or 'injector' format depending upon which your system and game needs to work. (Some people can get the preferred 'wrapper' version to work with FNV, while others are forced to the 'injector' version.) The site for downloading the driver series is.The 'SweetFX' is a 'shader suite' that uses an 'injector' called 'ReShade'.
Reshade and SweetFX are described in the article along with a couple of others. Download (including ReShade) here.And then there are various 'presets' for both available for download from the Nexus, which are specific configurations developed by the authors and users to produce specific graphic atmospheres. These are a matter of personal preference.
Note that some 'presets' make use of files that appear in the game 'load order'. Such files go after any unless the author specifies otherwise.Refer to the wiki article sub-topic 'Issue: ENB is not working' for general ENB installation instructions.HUD-UI-Menu Issues Most of us sooner or later end up installing a mod that makes some change to the 'Heads Up Display' (HUD), 'User Interface' (UI), or some of the game's Menus. See the wiki article before you do so, and avoid potential problems.How to ask for help in the forums The wiki article applies to any game. Read it before posting any problem not found in the resources listed here in the forums to speed up getting to the correct solution. The time you are wasting otherwise is not just your own.For help on how to use features of the Forum Software such as linking or embedding images, see the wiki articleWant to create your own mod? Please see the wiki article. It provides a learning roadmap, a starting point and guide to progression; not a tutorial.
Consider it a collection of suggestions, tips, and links to more detailed tutorials, articles, videos, and tools. Be sure to look over the 'Programs and Tools' section first to obtain those tools you will need to work with this older 32-bit game. The 'latest and greatest' versions are not usually the correct, compatible choice. The GECK itself is a very buggy tool and this article includes setup solutions, warnings, and customization tips to help get you past those early frustrations.References.
