Description:

In short, Blackened is a compilation of patches meant to improve compatibility between many of the bigger and/or more popular overhaul mods available for Fallout 3.

The following patches are available for download:

  • Fallout Wanderers Edition + Energy Visuals Enhanced (Unified Paradox version).
  • Fallout Wanderers Edition + Mart’s Mutant Mod.
  • Mart’s Mutant Mod + Energy Visuals Enhanced (Unified Paradox version).
  • Energy Visuals Enhanced (Unified Paradox version) + Project Beauty.

Combo patches:

  • Fallout Wanderers Edition + Energy Visuals Enhanced + Project Beauty.
  • Fallout Wanderers Edition + Mart’s Mutant Mod + Project Beauty.
  • Fallout Wanderers Edition + Mart’s Mutant Mod + Energy Visuals Enhanced.
  • Fallout Wanderers Edition + Mart’s Mutant Mod + Energy Visuals Enhanced + Project Beauty.
  • Fallout Wanderers Edition + Mart’s Mutant Mod + Energy Visuals Enhanced + Project Beauty + Destruction.
  • Mart’s Mutant Mod + Energy Visuals Enhanced + Project Beauty.
  • RH_Ironsights (Paradox merged version) + Fallout Wanderers Edition + Energy Visuals Enhanced.

These files all require the original versions of their respective mods, and all of their DLC addons. No exceptions.

Please note that EVE-related patches can only be used in conjunction with the Unified Paradox version of EVE.
The latest EVE installer will now provide you with this version of EVE.

Project Beauty related patches only work with the high-resolution version of Project Beauty, not the standard version.
Do not activate the plugin labled "Mart's Mutant Mod - Project Beauty.esp".

Note that, as of version 3.3 of this mod, any and all MMM-related can only be used in conjuction the Paradox Ignition merged version of Marts Mutant Mod. Failure to do so will result in your game crashing on startup.

FWE installs well with FOMM, but if using NMM:
Manually download part 1, 2, & hotfix. Extract all 3 into a new folder called Data, being careful with overwriting order (hotfix last). Right click folder to create an archive from it, and add via NMM clicking "add mod from file".

  • Added compatibility patch for RH_Ironsights, FWE and EVE.
  • This patch is exclusively compatible with the Paradox Ignition merged version of RH_Ironsights.

September 30th 2014 update:
