You will need to get good with mods if you are planning on running a modded server because the more mods you add the more conflicts and issues may occur. That being said, you can’t really know how each of the mods is coded but there are some basic rules which should work in the majority of the situations.

The mods lower in the list will overwrite the mods in the upper part in case of conflicts. For example: if the basic game level is 60, AoC level is 120, EEWA level is 300 and Paragon is 300 + extra perks you will want to load them in this order. AoC will overwrite the base level 60, EEWA will overwrite the lvl 120 of AOC, Paragon will overwrite the level 300 of EEWA and add the extra perks.

Another example: Emberlight and AoC both add extra drops from plants which creates a conflict. If you load Emberlight after AoC, you won’t be able to get any AOC plant drops. If you load Emberlight first, you won’t get the Emberlight ones. So here you need to make a choice about what is more important to you: Emberlight or AoC. As the plant drops in Emberlight aren’t as essential as the ones in AoC you would want AoC loaded after Emberlight.

Next IQoL changes appearance of thralls for example. If you want it to work on all thralls, you need to add it after all the mods that add thralls and so on. While I really like IQoL mod, I must warn you that it may take days after a game patch for this mod to be updated and many servers have to remove it until the update is finally released because it causes crashes. If you remove the mod though, any thralls modified with it may disappear.

As your list is not too long, I will attempt to sort it out for you but I don’t have the experience of running all these mods together, it may or may not work 100%. If you have an issue with a specific mod, try loading it lower in the list.

Have in mind that while adding mods is easy, it is not always so easy removing them without losses. Some mods may also leave lines in your database even when removed which could cause errors. Always look for mods that are actively supported by their mod authors and consider twice any mods that may appear abandoned (scrolling through the steam comments is usually a good indication whether the author is active or not). Check mod pages for recommended load orders as well.

On another note, the more mods you add, especially if they are large in size, the harder it will be for people with weaker pcs or slower connection to log in. They may experience authentication failures caused by them being timed out by the server because it takes them too long to load all the mods.

Hope this helps.

P.S. Some mods are coded in a way that they would work well no matter where they are placed in the list. I find it hard to tell which mods these may be without asking the mod author, so I go with the safer option by following a “logical” to me load order.

Thank you for helping me Narella i really do appreciate it :slight_smile: I will test this out right away. I always through that AoC came near the top of the list it is why i asked.

If i get any problems then i will try to remove Emberlight first if this is something that does cause conflicts. Thank you.

There are many servers running AoC and Emberlight together. The conflict between them is minor (the plants) and it is easily solved by load order. As long as you load Emberlight first and AoC after you are good.
