FNV - Unified HUD / oHud / UIO

[GamersCircle]

I am still in the learning process here, but with what I have been able to gleemed so far, my FNV is so much fun; however I would like to add a couple of mods and they are giving me a bit of trouble.

Mainly because they have HUD elements and if I have read and watched correctly

uHud became oHud and now UIO is preferred over the both?

The mod that I having problems with is the Flashlight. I do not have uHud installed, but I have both oHud and UIO installed.

I suppose, my first question is, so I need both oHud and UIO? Can I simply have UIO and when it comes to load order. Right now UIO is pretty high, right under MCM.

Advice / Suggestions?

Oh.. I am now using Mod Organizer instead of NMM.

thanks,
Andy

Just install them all you shouldn't be anywhere near the esp limit now.
.I'm not too sure of what they each do as I do not use them the nexus fourms would probably know about though.

I actually posted a note out there and here hasn't been anything on it. I konw that Gopher said that you can have uHud/oHud installed, but that if you are using UIO you don't really.

Perhaps I will intalled uHud as well and see if that helps.

Just do what you think is right,

UIO is a UI mod wrangler that dynamically manages all of the UI mods it detects in order to make them all play nicely with each other. If you have any UI mods then you should use UIO. If you use UIO then you don't need Unified HUD.

One HUD is a merge of Gopher's HUD mods. If you want Adjustable HUD, Immersive HUD or Extra HUD then use this mod instead of the individual mods because Gopher no longer supports them.

As an aside, UIO does not exist in your load order. It's a NVSE plugin, not a game plugin. I think you're confusing MO's left panel (mod priority, analogous to NMM's install order) with the right panel (plugin priority, what LOOT generates).

You are correct, I am still pretty new when it comes to modding, but I do pay very close attention to the tutorials/clinics.

You are correct, I was getting the two columns and I think I know what I should do for the flashlight.

1.) Uninstall oHud [and patch]
2.) Install flashlight fmod
a.) It will detect NVSE, MCM and a hud.xml file, I will click install
3.) Re-install oHud [and patch] replacing when prompted

That sound about right? I know that it is an easy mod to install, but for some reason, this one is throwing me for a loop.

Thanks again,
Andy
