Hello there, EssArrBee I've been following your guide for New Vegas for some time now. I cannot thank you enough for the work you've put into it. My load order is more or less exactly the same as yours, give or take one or two armor mods. I also use FNVRWL instead of Nevada Skies. Anyway, I updated my load order to the changes you made on October 21, 2014 and I found that, upon loading the game, the main menu wouldn't appear. It would just play the intro music and show the menu background, but no HUD to interact with. At first I thought it was due to the UI mod changes (addition of UIO - UI Organizer etc), but even after removing those, the problems persisted. I then went through the process of elimination and found the culprits. They are: Merged Fixes.esp This is the one that contains: Armor Replacer Child NPC Fix.espReload Speed Game Start Fix.espREPCONN Test Site Fixes.espSafe ShowRaceMenu.espand the ILO - Merged Patches.esp, which in my case only contains: ILO - New Vegas Bounties.espILO - New Vegas Bounties II.espIf those two merge files aren't loaded in my load order, the game runs fine. Now, I do know how to merge plugins. I've done it many times before. Merged plugins using the same method work without issue. The YukiMergedMods.esp, NewVegasUncutSeries.esp, Sandbox6 Mods Merged.esp, all work, for example. I followed your steps twice just to make sure and tried both 1.75 and 1.7 versions of the Merge Plugins xEdit Script. Is there something you missed out of the guide perhaps? Did they need Renumber FormID unchecked? Thank you for your time. I hope to hear from you. Ormr Snaethorsen
