Reference my personal WIP Modlist Spreadsheet to see specific mod separators and load order placement if desired. ** Warning: Not a Guide. Plus, it can make your head swim. Color legend is in the upper right.
Mods that are Higher in Load Order than the main DC/Hangman's group:
00. Tales from the Commonwealth (3.01 in my case) - top of my Quest Mods section.
- DLC Commentary for TFTC v2.5 and up
- CBBE Version of Lola's Dress by Oussebon
1. The Fens Sheriff's Department This mod uses an ESM so it loads very high.

1.3 Optional - The Fens Sheriff's Department - Random Encounters Patch

- Complex Sorter users have an .ini file available: Mojave Manhunter Complex Sorter .ini
3. Eli's Armour Compendium - breaks precombines in the DC area and conflicts with leveled lists
3.1 4estGimp - Eli's Armor Compendium Edit - fixes precombines and uses Leveled List injection
4. Crimsonrider's Convenient Resources (Food-Water-Power) . Adds a lot convenience for settlement builders at Hangman's Alley. It has several functions which are all nice but I especially appreciate power radiation from terminals being doubled and powered turrets don't require wires. It's is installed quite a bit higher than the DC mods.
5.4estGimp - Diamond City Outskirts (The Hole Redux) Edit- Stand-alone mod. Do not install the original. Yes, we are loading it high intentionally.

9. Tales from the Commonwealth - Patch Previsibines - installs the plugin 3DNPC_FO4[Previsibines].esp . It is the conflict winner over Visual Fixes as necessary.
10. Diamond City Ambience - This is loaded with other audio mods a few sections higher than DC mods. it would be a good practice to quick auto clean this mod in x-Edit. On my previous DC page this could lead to issues but it does not now.

Warning
- Load Order is critical for this list to work.
- 99% of Vortex users can't run this modlist - LOOT dependent users can't run this modlist.
- This modlist does not use PRP - it will conflict unless you can control your load order and load it above these mods.
NOTE: Do NOT use any "Performance Optimization" mods which precombine these mods. They will create huge load order and previsability culling issues.
Please visit us on Discord:
LOAD ORDER IS KEY. Well, mod selection helps quite a bit also. Even though all of these mods are not required, the Load Order must be preserved. Don't even attempt this list if you can't make your mod manager use this specific load order.
Reference my personal WIP Modlist Spreadsheet to see specific mod separators and load order placement if desired. ** Warning: Not a Guide. Plus, it can make your head swim. Color legend is in the upper right.
Those who do not run FSD but prefer to instead run only The Great Green Jewel, DCIR, or Old Bleachers should use my Previous DC Mod Page

THE MODS BELOW GET PLACED AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR LOAD ORDER. ONLY PATCHES GO AFTER THIS GROUP.
11. Location Cleaning Mods - We use the location mod Hangman's Alley Optimized which is near the end of this list. I no longer run settlement cleaning mods globally but rather pick and choose the locations which matter. The Deep Clean series has the best features and least conflict of the various location clean-up mods. I use Sanctuary Deep Clean and Remodel plus Red Rocket Deep Clean I then add Settlement Blueprints for those locations. Users of the full Commonwealth Deep Clean and Remodel Collection should remove the Hangman's Settlement. It will probably break the location but I have not yet tested it. 12. Fourville
