    Do you have the weidu of Darkest day or just the regular one? Either way I am pretty sure TDD is not the most compatible mod around. Sadly I can't really help but I'm sure someone will be along pretty quickly

    Yes, if you are running the non-weidu version of TDD, is recommended you don't install any other mods. This goes for any non-weidu mod.
    As for the weidu mods, usually it doesn't really matters in what orders you install them as long as you remember to read the readme's included with the mods. Still, try to not to use too many mods at the same time. 5 or 6 at max are usually more than enough.

    I'll quickly point out that WeiDU was designed by Weimer and is used as the installer for all modern mods, not just ones Weimer makes. So where you've written (weimer), although they're all WeiDU mods they're not all by Weimer. :)

    Oh and the Darkest Day fills up all the kit slots so if any other mod adds kits then its a no go unless you get the kit remover... which I can't remember where is.

    I see, i am pretty sure the darkest day i downloaded is weidu. and i got the big picture mod so i can play big mods together... does that mean i can only play the mods that work with big picture? I suppose i can get rid of some mods if it comes to that
