Hey @SkyrimKing78! Before you start modding I recommend you get LOOT to manage your mod load order (helps prevent conflicting mods and crashing) and FNVedit to merge any mods that may conflict with eachother.
These two tools helps a ton!
LOOT:

FNVedit:

Ok here's a few things I'd recommend.
Try using a Mod Manager (NMM or MO) as FOMM is outdated imo. There's actually a guide on making tweaks to your ini files and what not over on the step forums. Make sure that your archive invalidation is on. LOOT
Hopefully this helps. I understand your frustrations as NV can be finicky at times.

The guys back at the TTW site itself said that its recommended that you use their suggested FOMM when installing TTW. So my best bet is you go with that first.
Another thing, when you get the TTW installer, you don't put that installer into FOMM, you need to use THAT installer in order to merge FO3 and FNV into one because the MERGED FILE that you will get from it is the one you're gonna INSTALL USING FOMM. And please CHANGE THE INSTALLATION DIRECTORY for the file. Put the merged file some place else other than your FNV/FO3 folder; put it in your Drive D or just your desktop really.
Sorry if I sound like Im shouting, i made some words on all caps so that its easier to see and take notice. And don't worry man, you'll be able to install it. BTW, you sure you want to use TTW now because the latest update is almost here.
