NVR and NVR-Electro-City Patch cyclic interaction error #31

Closed EvilOssie closed 7 years ago

EvilOssie commented 8 years ago

I'm using LOOT for my new NV build for the first time; I get an error message during the sort process (NVR- is from New Vegas Restoration)...

ERROR Failed to sort plugins. Details: Cyclic Interaction detected between plugins "NVR-Strip.esm" and "NVR-Electro-City_Patch.esp". Back cycle: NVR-Electro-City_Patch, NVR-Strip.esm.

Afterward, the sort process apparently stops there. I have absolutely no idea what that means, aside from it not wanting to sort those two...can someone help here, please? Google is no help at all.

I've edited your comment to include your original forum thread post for context, and taking a look at your log now.

Well, the reason it's failing is that NVR-Strip.esm is a master file and NVR-Electro-City_Patch.esp is not, but you have load after metadata telling the former to load after the latter, which can't be done.

Crap...I would have sworn that I removed that entry. Only thing I can guess (recall that I said that I'm still learning LOOT) is that I forgot to save the edit after doing it.

My (kinda embarrassing) bad, and thank you, sir.

EDIT - As long as I have your attention...LOOT tosses warnings about Project Nevada - Core.esm and oHUD.esm needing NVSE installed; I do have the current stable NVSE but I use the modded FNV4GB loader, available on the NVSE site, in place of the default NVSE loader. I ignore the warning since everything seems to be fine (in-game console command for NVSE shows that its installed, etc), and I mention it now only in case you were somehow not aware of LOOT not recognizing the 4gig launcher for what it is and throwing up essentially a false warning.

Could you open a new issue for that and provide the warning message text?

Sure.
