As nice as all the Synergies stuff sounds, it just isn't working well with the other mods I'm trying to use. Putting Synergies at the top is either overriding or eliminating some mod aspects of mods I like (for instance, it kills the 'costume equips' option from 'Noddyngineering' as well as not allowing even the use of that mod's items. they drop, but dissappear when I pick them up, never showing in my inventory). I think perhaps even the presence of the other mods are killing the "diablo-esque" tweaks done in Synergies (saw those showcased on youtube vids).

The mods I've noticed conflicts with Synergies on are:
-Armorless Mod
-Noddyngineering!!
-Torchlight ll Essentials (in solo play, just selecting the Tenebris class in character creation has crashed the game half the time. Synergies has also occasionally killed the Character customization options)
-UNLEASHTHERAINBOW
-Engineer Tweaks

All of these mods have have little to no problems at all working together before I tried using Synergies :/

I'm not exactly sure of all the conflicts, but I've noticed conflicts with these just just in starting the game and the first few minutes of play. I've only been solo playing, not multiplayer. I HAVE tried having Synergies as the 1st mod on the list and have even placed it below others as well as trying to use it without Essentials in there. I'm fairly new to Torchlight II and am still feeling out the classes and mod setups and such, but today is the first time I've attempted to use SynergiesMOD and after hours of tweaking the mod list order, I cannot find a valid ordering that will give me all the options I'd like to have. :/

When I'm up for a greater challenge, I'll probably try Synergies again. But for now, Synergies just doesn't have qualities that I want enough to try any further. Some options I'd like if you're looking for more input is:
-Costume options: I am a fashion ♥♥♥♥♥ in MMOs and LOVE being able to have a costume slot to drop items into in order to have the ability to control my 'look'.
-Let me be clear in saying that I am NOT asking for a nude mod here, but I find it stupid that I take off an armor and I find that I'm wearing non-functional armor beneath that! Drives me insane in a OCD way :P I picked up the GUTS program and MAY eventually try my luck with tweaking the "Armorless" mod so that you get the undies and have a set of starting equips that are the starting outfits (seems possible because there's mesh files in the wardrobes folders when I compared the armorless and nude mods for reference), but as extreme low level/useless clothing so you can still swap out. But since I've never created a mod before and was practically yanking my hair out last night trying to find beginner's tutorials for guts... I may not have any luck.
-Customization at character creation! Having more choices for hair colors, skin colors, etc would be GREAT! The maker of UNLEASHTHERAINBOW said that you actually had that in beta versions of Synergies but took it out? D:
