Invisible Models & Textures

[bill8872]

NMM has major issues with many mods. There are time when I download a mod through Nexus, and NMM will not even recognize I downloaded it, or places it in the unassigned category.

 

I find more often than not, it is NMM that is the problem, not the mods.

I too encountered the same problem with textures being invisible. I am just posting to say that if someone is playing Fallout 4 through steam, like I do, than I may have a solution (it worked for me).

Â

In addition to editing the Fallout4Custom.ini file within:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 4

Â

I also had to edit a 2nd Fallout4Custom.ini file within:

C:\Users\<user>\Documents\My Games\Fallout4

Â

*note the <user> is actually your Windows log in name

Â

And for anyone who doesn't already know the required edits for both these files are (should be able to copy paste what I have below):

Â

[Archive]

bInvalidateOlderFiles=1

sResourceDataDirsFinal=

Â

Be very wary of typos on both files including extra spaces.

Â

Omg thanks bro. You are best. Im so happy because my mods are working now!

Well, I got my game back and it's annoyingly simple HOW.

 

As many have noted, patching (or removing) the mod DEF_UI, I think it's called, fixed the problem of crashing with the bInvalidateOlderFiles flag in the Fallout4Custom.ini file. With the following change to the Fallout4Custom.ini:

 

[Archive]

bInvalidateOlderFiles=1

sResourceDataDirsFinal=

 

All my meshes and textures appear like they should. The reason I removed those lines was because "they" were causing me to crash. But it wasn't them, it was ~something~ in my INTERFACE folder. I still do not know what orphaned files caused the crash, but when I deleted the INTERFACE folder entirely, and restored the Fallout4Custom.ini file back to what it was pre-1.5 patch..... everything worked.

 

I tried deleting the INTERFACE folder before, but I was still crashing, but that could have been caused by anything. So this may not be a cure-all, but if you have ~any~ INTERFACE folder with files in it, remove any mods you think may have put stuff there (like a scope mod or the full dialog mod) and delete the folder. You can later install mods that alter the UI (if they are properly patched to 1.5, apparently) but clearing out the "orphaned" files that cause you to be unable to use the InvalidateOlderFiles change to the INI might fix your problems.

 

Sorry if this is rambling and long-winded --- this is my seventh hour tinkering with the game just to get things to work like they worked pre-patch. :tongue:

Wow, thank you, i had problems with equipping this mod - http://shiala92.deviantart.com/art/N7-Armor-and-Helmet-for-Fallout-4-601383301, and i busted my ass finding solution, but once i uninstalled this damn INTERFACE folder, everything works fine

Is nexus mod manager in the same same drive as your fallout 4 install? Also I had the same problem last night. I deleted everything related to NMM and Fallout 4 and reinstalled both and I no longer had this issue. I was running up to date NMM and Fallout and this fixed textures and meshes not installing.

 

I also moved my NMM to the same drive as my fallout 4 install. So it was either the reinstall of both or it was putting them both on the same drive.

 

 

Both on the same drive fixes it.

Try just reinstalling all your mods and make sure the textures are in the folder. But that's all I got

[AggaAgostini]

Its nmm it puts files in wrong places

Yes nmm doesnt copy all files to right folders

I run nmm to activate only then run game from launcher on pc.

Nmm has issues with online offline

It has issues everywhere

I dont play my games online at all ever im updated to i think is 1.8 somthing and apart frm nmm putting files in wrong folders the game runs fine for upto 6hrs before it crashes

[vlad9988]

Necro to help others, I hope.

 

I had the problem with invisible items from mods. Invisible Crossbow, invisible backpack workbench, invisible gun mods, etc.

Many hours of trial and error later, mine seems fixed.

 

Had to delete or rename \Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data\Interface folder

 

I also edited Fallout4.ini and Fallout4Custom.ini to include

[Archive]
bInvalidateOlderFiles=1
sResourceDataDirsFinal=

 

 

Until I renamed that folder the .ini edits just resulted in a CTD on load.

 

Now I have a CROSSBOW!
