Tauto: If I get some enquiries then I'll oblige, otherwise sail on by.
I might add that there is a lot to do and it is time consuming and you will need to be able to d/l mods from Nexus. There are videos on this but no written way to do it. The videos are fine to get an idea but they fall a long way short of the problems that you will come across.
I had a Fallout3/NV/TTW install setup back in 2017 with a few others. Can share this if you like. It is TTW version 2.9.4. Haven't been back and updated since then though, so would be nice to see a nice modlist/load order.
-------------------------------------
1) Install F3 full
2) Install F3:NV full
3) Install FOMM - Mod Manager to NV
4) Extract Tale Of Two Wastelands
5) Follow this to install
---
Launch the installer .exe file by right-clicking on it and choosing "Run as Administrator". THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL.
When the installer loads, make sure it has found the correct location of both your Fallout 3 and, Fallout New Vegas Installs. If not use the browse button to navigate to the correct game directories.
In the install location field, use the browse button to navigate to your preferred TTW installation directory. DO NOT INSTALL DIRECTLY TO YOUR FNV DIRECTORY.
Click Install.
Watch the log and the progress bars to see how things are going.
The installer can take between 10 to 30 minutes depending on the speed of your computer. Primarily, it is based on your hard drive speed. For example, users with solid state drives, fast processors, and lots of ram will have about 10 minute install times.
When the installer finishes it will ask if you would like it to make a FOMOD; TTW is much easier to install with a mod manager - see below for recommendations. If you would rather do a manual install (not recommended) see the instructions in the next section.
MOD MANAGERS:
- RECOMMENDED: Fallout Mod Manager (FOMM) 0.14.11.12 can handle the install perfectly, even on lower-end systems. If you have issues and are sure you are on FOMM 0.14.11.9 you can swap out the exe with this LAA patch.
Make sure your mod manager is closed. Navigate to the TTW install directory and move the FOMODs (TaleOfTwoWastelands_Main.fomod, TaleOfTwoWastelands_Options.fomod) to your FOMM FNV mods folder (C:\Games\FalloutNV\mods by default)
Open FOMM and click on the "Package Manager" button. A new window should open and you should see two new FOMODs (Tale of Two Wastelands - Main files, Tale of Two Wastelands - Optional Files). Install Main Files first and the Optional Files afterward.
NOTE: FOMM will become "(Not Responding)" and freeze for a while when installing the main TTW fomod, that is because the size of the fomod file is huge and FOMM needs to unpack and move several GB of data, this takes time. Do not close FOMM until it finished and loses the (Not Responding) status.

6) Install the hotfixes, to do this expand the zip to a folder, then package manager, create fomod from folder, then activate the fomod
7) Install Marts Monster Mod by:
---
Create a work folder and call it Data
Extract MMM 1-RC61 and move the meshes, sounds and textures folders into the Data folder you created
Extract the files from this post and copy the contents to the Data folder you created
In the Data work folder you created, navigate to meshes\creatures\smspinebreaker and delete the following files:
smcaptain.nif
smspinebreakerbare.nif
smspinebreakerbare2.nif
smspinebreakerheavy.nif
smspinebreakerheavy2.nif
smspinebreakerheavy3.nif
smspinebreakerlight.nif
smspinebreakerlight2.nif
smspinebreakerlight3.nif
smspinebreakermedium.nif
smspinebreakermedium2.nif
smspinebreakermedium3.nif
Compress the Data folder you created with winrar or 7zip , call it MMM-TTW or something and install it with your mod manager of choice
???
Profit!

4. Extract the Fallout 3 pack.
5. Extract the script package.
6. Select the script that corresponds to the Fallout 3 pack you downloaded
and copy it into the TEXTURES sub folder of the extracted pack.
7. Double click on the script to execute it. It will remove textures that
do not exist in the Fallout 3 BSA's and remove textures that are
duplicates of the files contained in the Fallout 3 BSA's. When the scrip
has finished, delete it.
8. Extract all the files of the New Vegas Pack (1 - 3 archives). If you've
chosen the Medium or Large versions, you need to copy the TEXTURES
folders into the same place. I recommend you copy 2 and 3 into folder 1.
9. Select the script that corresponds to the New Vegas pack you downloaded
and copy it into the TEXTURES sub folder that you moved the other
TEXTURES folders into.
10. Double click on the script to execute it. It will remove textures that
do not exist in the New Vegas BSA's and remove textures that are
duplicates of the files contained in the New Vegas BSA's. When the script
is finished, delete it.
11. If you downloaded Washed out Wasteland extract the archive and continue
to step 12. If you did not download Washed out Wasteland skip to step
15.
12. Select the script that corresponds to the Washed out Wasteland pack that
you downloaded and copy it into the TEXTURES sub folder of the extracted
pack.
13. Double click on the script to execute it. It will remove textures that
do not exist in the New Vegas BSA's and remove textures that are
duplicates of the files contained in the New Vegas BSA's. When the script
is finished, delete it.
14. Copy the TEXTURES sub folder of the extracted Washed out Wasteland
extracted pack to the New Vegas pack directory where the other
extracted textures are.
15. If you downloaded the Large Texture Pack Patches continue to step
16. If you did not download the Large Texture Pack Patches skip
to step 18.
16. Extract the Large Texture Pack Patches pack.
17. Copy the TEXTURES sub folder of the extracted Large Texture Pack Patches
to the New Vegas pack directory where the other extracted textures are.
18. Copy the MESHES and TEXTURES folders of the combined cleaned New Vegas
pack to the extracted and cleaned Fallout 3 pack folder and overwrite
any files.
19. You now have a cleaned and combined NMC texture pack which you can
pack into an fomod or archive to install with your favorite mod
management application.
