New to installing mods. I have no idea what i need to do. help please&


Recommended Posts

dont bother trying to add them through package manager, i dont think its for zip files.

just unzip the files to your data directory as usual, then using the mod manager the check them off. if the .esp is in your data folder it will show up in the list and if your mesh and texture folders get put in correctly everything should be ok

sorry i didnt see hackeysacks earlier post talking about the package manager, it may very well work, i just dont have any experience with it.

 

so my suggestion is to open the josef grey makeup zip - drag the data folder inside into your fallout3 folder - it will then say that there is already a data folder and do you want to overwrite - you say "yes to all" - then do the same thing with the hair pack

 

[for the hair pack drag both the folders "textures" and "meshes" inot your fllout3\data directory, then drag the hair add npc.esp and hairpack.esm files into the data directory and then take the eyes_hairpack_en.esp file from the folder called "plugin" and put that in your data directory too]

 

then if you havent already run archiveinvalidationinvalidated, do so - then launch FOMM and check off the english version of the hair pack and launch the game.

 

like i said, i havent used the package manager so im only guessing about it working or not with zip files. but if its giving you troubles dont bother because you can install mods easily in the way i just described.

 

hope that helps

Sorry if i'm being an idiot, but when i try to install the faction mod where every BOS wears a T-51, then i try to install the mod where there are American BDU at the germantown, I was warned that the mesh and the texture file are about to be overwritten. Its that okay to do? Are they merge together? Please help, i really don't understand.

im not familiar with those mods specifically but unless they both change the same texture or mesh files (which it doesnt sound like they do) then it will only slot them in with each other

you should be fine to click "yes to all"
