Utilities
These tools help you mod and optimize your game.
MO, one of the best mod managers, this overwrites files instead of replacing them, essencial. This TES5 version is more updated. Guide
BethINI, INI configuration tool.
During the install use the BethiINI Setup tab and select their MO profile via the INI Path setting. After Bethini runs the INI files in this profile will be changed. Read the warnings.
When the new INI files have been created the Fallout Launcher will run to complete the generation of the INI files. Make any changes needed, including ensuring that the screen resolution shown in the Launcher corresponds to the resolution used for monitor being used for the game.
Exit the Fallout Launcher, which builds expanded versions of the INI files.
FNVedit, for creating merged patches.
FNVLODGen, allows the creation of lods, which are sort of a long range texture. Download the 2 main files.
Loot, organizes the load order.
Merge Plugins, the engine has a limit of plugins, some heavly modded games need to use this to merge them, this TES5 version is more updated.
Mator Smash, to create bashed patches.
Tweaking MO
Check if archive invalidation is ON in the profiles tab.
Link, follow this guide to use MO to donwload nexus mods instead of the original NMM.
Click the Executables button and set the programs that MO will run: LOOT, FNVEdit, FNVLODGen, Merge Plugins Standalone and Mator Smash.
Extra Setup Steps
LOOT
In the Executables menu select LOOT/FNVLODGen/Merge Plugins Standalone
Next to the Arguments text field, type '--game=FalloutNV' for loot, '-o:'C:FNVLODGenOutput' for LogGen or '-profile FNV' for Merge Plugins, everithing without quotations.
Click [Modify], then [Close].

Start Merge Plugin Standalone through MO and then click [OK].
Select the Settings (gear icon).
Go to the Integrations tab.
Tick the 'I'm using Mod Organizer' checkbox.
Set the 'mod manager path' to MO's installation folder.
Click [OK]

Extender
NVSE, extract into the FNV folder, NOT the Data folder. Expands the game scripting, used by most mods.
Create a new folder in data named 'NVSE' (if the folder doesn't exist), inside create a new text document, name it 'nvse_config.ini'. See the INI guide.
JIP LN NVSE Plugin, another extender, less required than NVSE, but still essencial.
4GB Patch, allows the game to use 4gb of ram.
Download and extract the contents into the FNV folder.
Run the patcher.
Use MO to call the game executable, not NVSE or the launcher. The game is now 'patched' to see 4GB of memory and will automatically load NVSE if present.
