Toc Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I reinstalled Oblivion the other day and have been having problems with my mods ever since, I tried using the mod manager to find the problem and from what i can tell a number of them no longer have "parent files" i think if i could re designate the parent files or something like that then the problem would be fixed, I'm just not sure how I would go about doing that. Any help on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help on that? Post your load order first, at least. It seems you did not install some masters, most likely. (These are mods you downloaded but not mods you created yourself, is that correct?)

Toc Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 well with the files I'm running on the conflict detector it says on all the files that (master file: No) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myrmaad Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 well with the files I'm running on the conflict detector it says on all the files that (master file: No) That just means that those files are not master files, it does not mean that they do not require master files. In fact every single oblivion mod requires at least one master file: Oblivion.esm Anyway, where's that load order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwaxalot Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 well with the files I'm running on the conflict detector it says on all the files that (master file: No) Using Vista? Try turning off UAC. If that works, post back here for an explanation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toc Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 I just want to know how to tell those files to use the oblivion.esm as master, i think that should make them work like they are supposed too. oblivion.esmdlcshiveringisles.espkt_customracefix.espunderwater.espcapucine's aquamer race - exnem.espstockclothingarmor-forexnem.espakatosh mount by saiden storm.espTabaxi race2.0.espexnemEC_Rogue01.espIDKRRR_C_race.espSky Haven.esptona_simple_dress-armor_ver3.espGloria Armor.esp that is just about everything I'm trying to run right now, i have Eye candy as well as OMOD and unofficial oblivion patch running as well, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Getting a load order list from OBMM Of course you have to be running OBMM first to do this. On the right, click on the box that says Import/Export Select the top entry on the drop down list, View Load Order Your load order will be displayed. Note that any inactive mods will not show in the list. On the top left, click in the disk icon – a save box will pop up. First you need to tell it where to save your list – the desktop is a good place and easy to find. Next, go down to the second block at the bottom to select the save as type: Pick Plain Text (*.Txt) Now, in the File name block type in a name, such as Load List-1 Copy and paste the load order directly into to your post. If you want to keep a copy for your own use, make a text file and past the same list into it. Then 'save as' and give it a name that you will remember, such as Load list-1.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BossDweebe Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Did you reinstall according to the pinned topic at the top of this page (Tech support) ?What is telling you you are having a problem with parent files ?Did you reinstall all your mods one by one, and play test ?You don't have all that many running just yet. Turn them all offand see how the game runs. Then re activate them on by one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toc Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 game runs fine by its self, and some of the mods run fine such as the akatosh mount mods as well as the eye candy mod, but none of my race mods are running, and i just tried out a couple of simple clothing mods that i didn't have before, neither of them is running, but the mod manager says there are no conflicts the only thing is that it says they are un parented.

BossDweebe Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Clarify what you mean by the race and clothing mods not running. Are you trying to run the game with old saves ?The un parented may have something to do with old saves, but it is not something I have come across. You have read all of the comments in the reinstalling thread ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
