I was wondering whats the consensus or at least reccomended Mod Organizers and Load Order Tools for Oblivion,Fallout 3,Fallout NV,Skyrim Regular and SE and Fallout 4 ?
I know for Morrowind its Wrye Mash with Mlox and some other utilities.
But what is it for those games ?

For Fallout 3, Oblivion, and Skyrim I used the Skyrim Mod Organizer (Link). I loved it, and it was just a beauty to use. I struggled with the Nexus mod manager for a while, and I tried FOMM, but seriously, Skyrim Mod Organizer.

For load order, I've always done mine manually (I never have more than 10 mods at a time), but I hear good things about LOOT.

I can use Mod Organzier for Oblivion,Fallout 3,Fallout NV and Skyrim.

Does that mean I don't need Wrye Bash or OMM for Oblivion ? Also Wrye Flash or FOMM for FO3,or FO:NV? Or Wrye Bash or any other mod manager for Skyrim ? Does it work with FO4 or Skyrim Special Edition ?

regards to LOOT does that mean that BOSS is no longer needed?

Last question any other reccomended programs or utilties for modding in regards to MW,OB,FO3,FO:NV,Skyrim,FO4,Skyrim SE ?

I can only get Oblivion to work using OBMM and loading the game from physical media.

I can't remember if I used FOMM for FO3 and FNV or NMM.
I've uninstalled/reinstalled both several times and I'm not sure if the last time for FO3 was FOMM or not.
Pretty sure FNV was installed using NMM.

I used MO for Oldrim but it seems like MO's talent works for Nexus now.

I'm using NMM for FO4 and Skyrim SE.

I use BOSS for Oblivion and LOOT for FO4 and bothrims.
I relied heavily on Gopher's videos and mod instructions to refine BOSS's LO for FO3 & FNV .

Here is my setup now

Morrowind

Wrye Mash
Mlox
Other Utilities


Oblivion
Wrye Bash (For Bashed Patches and save game fixing)
OBMM(For OMOD Support)
Mod Organizer
BOSS
I heard LOOT doesn't work so well with Oblivion

Fallout 3
Wrye Flash (For Bashed Patches and save game fixing)
FOMM (For FOMOD Support)
Mod Organizer
BOSS I heard LOOT also does get along with Fallout 3

Fallout New Vegas
Wrye Flash (For Bashed Patches and save game fixing)
FOMM (For FOMOD Support)
Mod Organzier
LOOT

Skyrim(Regular)
Wrye Bash (For Bashed Patches and save game fixing)
Mod Organzier
LOOT

Fallout 4
Nexus Mod Manager
Not sure about Load Order tools

Skyrim Special Edition
Nexus Mod Manager
Not sure about Load Order tools

How is this setup ? I scoured the web and had such a hard time finding a straight answer.

Now I just gotta get my utilities then I can starting mod.

Any utilities you would recommend for all these games that I shouldn't go without ?

TES4Edit

TES5Edit
Skyrim Performance Monitor
ENB FXAA SweetFX Manager and Remover

SSEEdit
Skyrim Performance Monitor 64
ENB and ReShade Manager

If you use ENBs and/or reshaders, the two I listed worked well for me. Both from the same mod author.

I used the performance monitor for oldrim and it did what I wanted.
I haven't used the one for SSE. Again both are from the same mod author.
