LibertyPrime Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 I just wanted to know how do you guys organize your mods and also wanted to know how you guys install them when doing fresh installations. I'm not new to modding. My major concern is, what is the right order to install stuff? I was thinking major overhaul mods, 'minor major overhaul' mods (such as Living Economy), then companion system mods I'm guessing (MCS, I'm my case), then true minor mods such as clothing, weapons and armor mods, and also LAPF? Here is my current load order. Not that relevant but I feel like posting it in case anyone has questions about it. About two dozens of all of these won't go into my new load order either because they're unstable or because I didn't like them.

myuhinny Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 http://www.loverslab.com/topic/8893-installation-guide-with-lovers-mbp-and-wyre-with-bashed-patch/ Here is a quick installation guide. http://www.loverslab.com/topic/23-quick-installation-guide/ there is a sample load order towards the bottom of the first post. One thing has been updated boss is no longer the best mod sorter there is now LOOT so use that instead of BOSS.
rynak777 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 I keep backups of all my mods in a _mods directory.... when i make tweaks or cleaning to a mod, i repack it into that dir. I also tend to merge files of certain related mods... like for example, body, skin, equipment and skel replacers all into one isolated dir tree elsewhere on the hdd, built correct order. Then i copy everything to oblivion - if it works as it should, i zip the isolated dir tree up: In the future, i won't have to mess with this again - i'll just have to unzip "body and skin replacers.7z" Also important is to make backups of your entire oblivion dir periodically, so that if something goes wrong, you don't have to restart from scratch. The order of doing a fresh reinstall isn't as important as the PACE. Install one mod at a time, test extensively (at least an hour), then add ONE additional mod, repeat. As for the overall order - i tend to install things by theme.... like, first getting unofficial patch working, test. Backup. Get body replacers and stuff working, extensively test. Backup. Add companion related stuff, test, backup, and so on. The thing is that very often, it is mods belonging to the same "theme" that might interfere with each other - like i.e. companion mods interfering with each other. By doing them in a row i basically force potential conflicts to appear, so that i notice them as early as possible.
varenne Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 I keep what is core to all of my Oblivion builds, cleaned with TES4Edit in a 7z file. Next I do the same for those I know I will use like beautification and enhancement MODs; TES4Edit cleaned. Each of these is numbered or lettered in order of install. I use a combination of OBMM, Wrye Bash and manual installs, although the last has become less and less as I've added those to using WB also. It has been a while since I've reworked this though, as much has changed in regards to Lovers MODs since I built all of my core installs. But I wouldn't have to change much, maybe my later sets of installs, since I've learned much and dropped a lot of MODs I too either no longer like or use for various reasons. My largest change is what does and doesn't work well with LAPF. (I've pretty much ditched all of Monstergirls MODs as they just require way too much rework to be compatible with LAPF.).
