Your question wasnt that stupid actually :happy: , there was a data folder inside the data folder. I corrected that, but it doesnt work anyway. Not even with a new download and a nexus installation. Could you tell me the exact filepath for these textures? Nexus puts it in data/textures/actors/vampirelord right? The thing is that there wasnt a vampirelord folder before, whre the original vanilla textures should have been, is that correct? thanx for the help! Mine is "skyrim\Data\Textures\actors\vampirelord" so yeah, nexus used the right ones. hmm :/ maybe.. are you playing on ultra? i don't think that could be the course, but try if you're not. oh and textures are stored in .bsa files and not in folders, but by adding the folders, you can change the textures ingame. now that i remind myself. if you place the mod in your skyrim folder, the game should registrar a change. if you place the mod in here, but not in the data folder, "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim" the mod has a folder structure like this: data/textures/actors/vampirelord so what you'll need to do is to place the textures folder inside the skyrim folder and not the data folder, sounds a little complicated. but it should look like this when you're done: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\textures\actors\vampirelord" notice how it isen't placed into the data folder, but you'll still need to have it in your data folder anyhow. the game should update the textures now. hope i didn't confuse you too much ^^' thanks a lot for the help man. Im gonna try this and give you a feedback later! edit: its still not working... any clue why it works on harkons textures but not on mine?
