Is it recommended to play with the unofficial patch? (PS4)

[basketcaseNZ]

Hi denizens. I'm starting a new game and I'm wondering if I should use the unofficial patch. I ask because on my last playthru it caused some pretty big bugs, like not getting any thieves guild special jobs or the being contacted by the dark brotherhood.

Cheers.

Thanks for that, I appreciate it. I'll definitely use it then. I guess I can disable it, get the quests and then enable it again.

Can I just ask a stupid question? Does the game load mods from the top of the list or the bottom? So the patch says to put it at the top of your load order. Does that mean the top of your list?

Cheers.

The game loads your mods from your load order top to bottom. Yes.


for example.

Mod1
Mod2
Mod3
Mod4
Mod5


lets say thats your mod list. Lets also say that is your current mod load order.


the game loads Mod1 first all the way down to mod 5 last, in order.

I had it right. Thanks again.

It's disappeared from my load order but it's still showing enabled in my favorites. Has that happened to anyone else?
