Hello all! I recently purchased NV on a whim and was surprised to see my computer actually able to run it fairly decently, so the next obvious step was to mod my game. I'm very new to modding so I was curious what the proper organization for the load order is? Obviously esm files should load first before esp's, but I'm talking more along the lines of load order itself. So for example, patches first, then UI mods, then overhaul mods, and so on and so forth. If I could get some help on how it should be organized, I'd really appreciate it.

P.S. I do have the LOOT tool and FNVEdit downloaded, but are those the only tools I need? Oh, and once I've finished downloading the mods that I want, I'll edit the OP with my mod list at a later date if you guy's would like some more info as to what mods I'm using. :)
