i think this mod makes the MENU MUSIC stick on a loop in-game. sadly it seems the original uploader is no longer updating.
ALSO if you are using "Lighting Mods" like FO3 Realistic Wasteland Lighting Mod .. this will overwrite some of the Climate and Image space nodes for that mod, effectively making those weather and lighting mods not work in those locations.
i did read it before downloading and installing but when you say "ABOVE" do you mean it should apply the changes AFTER other lighting mods or BEFORE other lighting mods ?
That glitch is not specific to this mod. I have not had this in my load order for a while, and I still occationally have that happen to me. I am no expert, but I think it is more connected to how many mods you are running/have installed.
I am going to say no, as the author has not had anything to do with this mod in years, even though he has been active on the site as recently as October of this year. Can you even purchase copies of FO3 that are not GOTY anymore?
I have to agree, especially since the G.O.T.Y. version is about 1/3 the cost of what it was originally. Epic Games actually gave it away for free a few weeks ago.
People this might still work for fallout 3 IF you use tales of two wastelands! It allows you to play both fo3 and fnv in one game. I have been trying to find a decent perfrmance booster for the fo3 part of the game and i think i have found it.

So the main file CD GOTY along with the optional files were working fine until I had installed and uninstalled ENB-Boost as I was scared it would somehow mess up my game or my INI files.
Either way, after doing that, this mod is causing me to crash at the Main Menu every time no matter what load order it is in or what ESPs are ticked. If I even have one of them enabled, they just crash my game at the main menu with a memory error.
Don't know what the humpidity-dumpity f*** happened but it's really disappointing because it did give me like a 5 FPS increase which it vital to me as my machine isn't the best but can push 40 FPS with my settings/performance mods/tuning setup.
Oh welp, if this mod ever gets updated/fixed. That'd be great. I know your setup isn't the best for modding/testing so no worries. I wish people would take over old mods more often and update them. A lot of them could use 2016 refreshes but i'm going on a wild tangent now. SOMEONE PLS HALP WIT FIX.
--- EDIT: So apparently this mod may or may not be the case of my Start Menu crashes. My load order only has 51 Active Plugins at the moment but it won't even load the main menu now even though i've deactivated Clean-Deluxe. My PC isn't really the best but if my plugin count is capped at 51, that'll be f***ing ridiculous lol.
The moment I disabled it, it worked fine though. Right after that I installed a few more mods and the same things started happening even though they're completely different types of mods.
I added (Listing everything just incase that are ESPs.)
- UPP - Wearable Blackwolf Backpacks - Akira's SMG Beta from Wearable Black Wolf Backpacks - Optional Patches (Only the 3 game fixes for them) for WBB - Slower Degradation 50% - Item Weight Overhaul - Megaton Homes 2
I'm trying to use LOOT now since you brought it up but i've always felt comfortable manually setting up my load order as what makes sense to me just comes together. I usually add gameplay changes/armor mods to the bottom and and performance mods at the top along with misc UI mods.
How you see it setup right now is how it was setup before disabling the ESPs and i'm crash testing. The Fellout-Pipboylight and other optional SlowerDegrade ESPs were left unchecked as I have Smoothlight, Faster Pipboylight, and the SlowDegred50% on.
For the most part, your load order looks correct, but since your load order window in (what I assume is) NMM is not showing the complete file names, I can only guess that you have the Blackwolf backpack files in the correct order. Just to be sure, check that the Blackwolf Backpack.esp is at the top of your Blackwolf group. The Akira SMG file is fine where it is, as it is Mastered only to the Fallout3.esm.
If your Blackwolf files are in the correct order, then I am not certain as to what the problem is, especially since I am unfamiliar with the mods you have loaded below the Blackwolfs. Sorry about that. :/
I think it may be literally a plugin cap at 51, because the moment I drop down to 50 active plugins. My game just seems to work fine. I'm going to be really disappointed if this is the case.
So far i'm dropping Fallout for now as it's just giving me so much frustration. I've cleaned my files after using Loot for checking them with FO3 Edit. I also merged patch plugins to save ESP slots with MergePlugins however I didn't know exactly what I was doing as it said missing ESPs. I thought the merge wouldn't have to rely on any files but I think it was relying on the originals.
Honestly though, i've been so stressed just from this and wanting an easy time. This is why i've avoided FOOK and major overhauls that made a lot of changes to the game. I might just purge my fallout installation along with NMM and maybe reinstall another day. Either that or my Fallout 3 is going to be sitting for a while till I feel the urge to work at it again.
Also, in the future whoever reads this. Item Weight Overhaul and LightUpandSmoke conflict. Had to delete the item weight changes to anything cigarette related. I know this is the wrong place to post lol, just a random side note.
I find it odd that you seem to be "capped" at about 50 mods. The actual mod cap for Fallout 3 is, if I remember correctly, at least three times that amount. I have routinely run my FO3 game with about 100 mods, and had no problems except for mod conflicts. I wish I could help you figure this out, but it is a bit out of my experience.

Would have loved to use this mod for GOTY but it also removes CANS & BOTTLES. I like to pick them up, early in the game, to sell and feed the Rock-It launcher.
