Hunterborn Campfire Patch(Ensures compatibility with both Campfire and Frostfall 3)
Load Order
Better Vampires by Brehanin is an overhaul mod for Skyrim. It maintains balance and provides a much better experience for those wishing to play the game as a Vampire. It is HIGHLY customizable, compatible with all DLCs, and works with or without Dawnguard. Made with “compatibility in mind”, the “Warmonger Armory” mod adds just that to Skyrim. Everything included in the mod is based on the classic lore from the entirety of the Elder Scrolls franchise, with outfits and gear going as far as to being categorized by race. Here's a preview of my first ever public Skyrim mod, giving each race unique textures to make them appear more distinct. Releasing in a matter of days. So my first public Skyrim mod is nearly complete, just need to tidy up some leg seams, create the FOMOD installer and alternate options like smaller texture sizes, and I thought I'd give you all.
You should, in general, try to load Frostfall.esp as high (lowest priority) in your load order as you can.

In particular, Frostfall should load before any mods that edit inns and taverns. These are mods like JK’s Skyrim by Jkrojmal and Teabag86.
This is to ensure that the Rescue system in Frostfall will transport your character to the right place if your exposure reaches maximum.
Campfire
Keep in mind that Frostfall requires Campfire, and Campfire has its own Compatibility page. Please check that page as well if the compatibility or integration you’re looking for isn’t on this page; it might be specifically related to camping as provided by Campfire.

Incompatibilities and Quirks
Mod | Incompatibility |
Frostfall 2.6 or prior | Strictly incompatible. Do not load Frostfall 2.6 or prior (Chesko_Frostfall.esp) alongside Frostfall 3 (Frostfall.esp). The game will prevent you from continuing if you do so. |
SKSE 1.7.2 or prior | SKSE 1.7.3 or greater is required. You will receive a warning in-game that will not let you continue until you upgrade. |
W.A.T.E.R. Get Wet - Water FX Plug-in | The W.A.T.E.R. plug-in that displays water droplets on the player should not be used because Frostfall already includes a water shader when the player is wet. If you would prefer to use this visual effect instead of Frostfall’s, be sure to turn off Frostfall’s Player Wet Shader in the settings. Your water droplets will not match Frostfall’s wetness game mechanic, however. |
Hypothermia (Nitor) | This mod adds essentially the same mechanics already added by Frostfall and should not be used with it. |
Dynamic Fires (Woodbyte) | This mod adds essentially the same feature already added by Frostfall and should not be used with it. |
ScriptDragon | This is a very dangerous, old, unsupported and unstable framework for executing custom script files that predates Skyrim’s Creation Kit and should not be used. |
