Combining mods

[Commanderx]

Suppose I want to use a mesh for an outfit from one mod, but another mod overrides it with it's own version. How would I go about fixing that?

You should change the path of the meshes. I'm not good enough in english to explain in details. But does the mod overrides the meshes or is it the .esp that override another ?

Assuming the files have the same name, just install the one you want to use last.

For example, I use type6 body, but I want the type3M powder ganger outfit. So I install the typ6 mod, download type3M clothings mod, copy the PG outfit from meshes/armor/powdergangers or something to that affect and then overwrites this particular file in my game directory.

Does that make sense?

[Commanderx]

Yeah that makes sense thanks

Commanderx, also you can open the GECK and add a new armor with the other mesh so that you can enjoy both

Slightly more complicated but if you have two same named items this is going to end up being your only way to get both into the game unless you find another outfit that you overwrite.

A word of caution, learning how to use the GECK will be frustrating but soon you will find yourself doing more with it and the other tools than actually playing the freaking game A slippery slope....a slippery slope indeed my friend!

I'm not sure, does the CS work with New Vegas?

Sorry, meant the GECK

Good catch!
