BlueSteelRanger Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Salutations, So, I have a rather puzzling conundrum on my hands.In the midst of working on a rather massive update/upgrade to my first-ever mod released to Nexus (whoo, that was a bit of a moment for me, not going to lie), I found some assets that I've fallen in love with. Before I continue, I have been granted permission (with proper credits, which shall be given as is their right), to use said assets. The issue: Whenever I try to add these assets into the CS, the thing literally just crashes to desktop and I lose all as-yet-unsaved data. I've been mainly experimenting with figuring out how to resolve this issue, so I haven't lost any major thing, thankfully. The assets in question are from this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/13275 I went through the process of copying the meshes and textures to their matching folders in my directories.I have other assets (also with permissions granted) that are working flawlessly. C:/Games/steamapps/Oblivion/Data/meshes/Furniture/C:/Games/steamapps/Oblivion/Data/textures/ It's likely that I've missed something small, or missed a minor step. I figured I'd ask, since I've tried everything I know to do. --BSR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I have not used that specific mod but I do use assets from a furniture mod that has one of those tubes included. To prevent crashes, do not load that esp from that specific mod into CS as you load Oblivion and maybe your mod as well but only Oblivion if you just wanna make a test.Add a bath tube manually as a furniture, save it as a separate esp if possible or at a copy of your espGo into the game and make a test. Report back here. Well I do know I do not need to tell you that, considering all similar dialogues that we had within modding :D Some esps will cause similar problems. If the problem is inside the mesh, load it into Nifskope, clean it and save and maybe you did turn on auto filter or auto clean in your Nifskope already? Reload CS or CSE and repeat the process again that I did mention at the beginning of this reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyskel78 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Whenever I try to add these assets into the CS, CTD.i'm assuming you've already checked Construction Set Extender.log for errors, could ya post em?the hyperlink is dead at 9:37 CST. please re-update, not sure why it's dead, this was a ref ... correct?

Pellape Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Load those assets into Nifskope, make sure you have auto clean/update activated and save them - Make sure it is set to Oblivion in the header as well. Nifskope can make wonders to any NIF / Mesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSteelRanger Posted September 18, 2021 Author Share Posted September 18, 2021 Salutations! My apologies for such a late reply. I never got word anyone had responded (and I had to deal with power outages. Ew. Fun). I have tried the manual route of creating a new piece. I can create the thing, but if I try to put it into the render window, I get a crash.I've even tried extracting via BSA Unpacker, which, except for the issue with these resources, has been flawless. I must also confess that I have not yet had the Extender put in. To put it plainly, offline life got crazy and it's going to get crazier still soon, as I am preparing for a cross-country relocation. Moving. Gotta love that, no? You can clean a mesh? How does one do that?Honestly, I've never had an issue with Nifskope or mesh/textures now that I've learned all that I have. I even managed to create a newly textured outfit I've wanted for a while! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I am not sure if it is turned on by default or not as I do think mine was. Load it in Nifskope and save, and it will become a new mesh but do check the options in Nifskope to see if it turned on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSteelRanger Posted September 18, 2021 Author Share Posted September 18, 2021 Ahh, okay. Thanks, Pellape. I have a slow-ish day or two coming up, so I'll look into that and CSE during that bit of down time. If I may be so curious, is it possible to import animals/creatures in a similar fashion? Specifically non-vanilla animals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Yes, Everything is possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSteelRanger Posted September 19, 2021 Author Share Posted September 19, 2021 Hmm. I shall have to look into how to do that. I ran a small test and got messages of ".kf" files not being found, yet the animal moving and behaving flawlessly in-game. Anyway...time for a little dive to learn CSE stuff. Or rather, to begin it. My player home ideas are expanding into "Worldspace" territory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Maybe the .kf was in a bsa archive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
