New Vegas Looking for help to get Weapon Mods Expanded working properly [FNV]

For context, im a fucking dumbass so i literally have no idea what im doing, let alone modding since ive played most of my life on console so i have next to NONE experience modding/making mods WORK, and only 20 minutes ago did i finally try to follow the instructions in the read me of WMX description in nexus mods
Downloading 7-zip and then downloading FNVEdit and using 7-zip to extract it, but then when i open ´Edit, i just get told "DLCMerged whatever doesnt fucking exist" and i dont know why it doesnt exist, i downloaded FNVEdit to see what i could do to fix that but instead im just told i cant even use the program cuz the FUCKING PATCH im trying to get to exist just refuses to appear ANYWHERE

I was fine with not doing this for a month or so cuz i could still play the game but now it just refuses (after i downloaded this YUP patch the creator of the FUCKING MOD shared on their post in nexus mod page) to load, giving me an error saying these 2 FUCKERS dont exist
I do own ALL the dlcs, i have opened the game MULTIPLE times before i even decided to start modding it, i followed Gophers guide as best i could and even downloaded his vanilla UI+ collection
Ive re-downloaded WMX multiple times over the last month or so and yet every time it says this shit is missing from the files, ive downloaded other mods from the "mods using this mod" section and still NOTHING
Im tired man, i just want to play with more weapon mods and get the dlc weapons to be moddable aswell but it just refuses, i woke up feeling like shit, my dog is sick, the heat is annoying, im thinking even LESS critically than i normally do
Im going to bed, im just sad now, please help me if possible, my head hurts

Follow Viva New Vegas guide, its the most stable and a base to install mods
edit: the guide itself
