If you've installed both FOMM and your mods correctly, all .esp and .esm files in your data folder should show in FOMM automatically when you load it. Have you pointed FOMM to the correct install directory?

You should have Fallout NV.esm checked you know

Have you unpacked the mods into your NV data folder?

Hi just thought i'd update this, i managed to get it all working last night after some fiddling,

installed
some texture packs,dof,fellout,centered 3rd person camera and remove gambling cap.

i might leave the texture mod tho as it cripples my HDD so might wait until i have an SSD before trying these again. Basically it stutters really badly while loading the UHQ textures.

Tried a defragg?, the 2.67GB NMC texture mod for Fallout 3 works fine on my 7200rpm WD drives (now and again I see about 1 seconds worth when its got a lot to bring up on screen)
