I have a problem anyway and it is that my game CTD and it only says SHV stopped working. Don´t know why is this happening, i mean i only have the base mods...
Any idea??

Sorry about my english anyway
1) by base mods - do you mean this mod? MMM mod?
2) are you using Steam version and trying to apply TDW's .exe patcher?

1) yes, only the MMM mod + shadows improvement which came with the optional mods

2) Boxed version patched to 1.2, did the Ram thing that allows the game to use more Ram. Dont know about the patcher you´re talking about, i just did what the creator of the MMM says in the instalation post

try running w/o the RAM patcher (restore original .exe file)
It has been discovered some time ago now, that SH5.exe came with ability to use more than 2gb of ram already, so when you are using the RAM updater you are reverting this (this actually might be the cause of your problems).

not sure if I would call you 'lucky', but at this particular moment, while bored to death at work, I'm jealous...

Also, try not to put too high TC (above 256); that might cause such crashes too.

Not lucky, the game was running fine but then it just got crazy, the interface turned white and when i tried to load a savegame to see if that solved it, CTD in my face.

Also, sometimes i see a merchant with no texture, maybe its related?

that sounds like badly installed mods, tbh.
I don't use MMM myself, so I don't know (haven't looked really) what is included in there. But you might go through this thread and see if there are others with same problem and see if there is a solution.
Also, when you run the game, I would recommend running Dbgviewer (considering that NewUI is included in this mod it should be in /data/Applications/ folder) when you run the game. That might help detect the problems.

The rest is really up to the creator of the mega-mod, this is a good feedback for him.
