Tools and Mods to Avoid

This is not a permanent ban list. It is a mobile-first caution list for this TTW guide.

Tools to avoid for this guide

ENB

Avoid

Not a good fit for this Android/GameNative target.

Wabbajack

Avoid

Desktop MO2 automation does not match the current DML mobile setup.

Automated LOD generation on Android

Avoid

Useful later, but too many generated files and too many variables for this guide right now.

Old New Vegas mod managers

Avoid

This guide is written for DML. Old managers make troubleshooting harder.

Random INI packs

Avoid

Use BethINI Pie and your own saved INIs instead.

Mod categories to avoid for now

Generated LOD setups

Avoid

Needs its own Android path later.

Huge texture packs

Testing only

Can work, but storage and memory cost climb fast. Test separately after the base guide works.

Heavy grass or landscape overhauls

Testing only

Extra render cost and more variables.

Heavy particle overhauls

Avoid

Test separately with FPS and crash logs.

Picture-in-picture scopes

Testing only

Can be expensive on mobile. Test after the main guide.

Large NPC face and body overhauls

Testing only

Asset-heavy and patch-heavy.

Big quest and worldspace stacks

Testing only

Add one at a time after the guide list works.
