Ok so I looked through this whole thread and have not found my problem. I have looked at videos on how to do this. I have more than one mod that has a 'mesh' and 'texture' folder. The videos said that you just drag the folders into the Data folder and if there was another 'meash' and or 'texture' folder there say 'yes' to merging the folders. My problem is that I don't get that option, I only get "There is another folder with that same name. Would you like to overwrite?" How do you get them to merge?

So if I have a mod already installed and it includes 'mesh' and 'textures' and I add another and I do overwrite it. will both mods work?

jep, their folder structure inside those folders differ.

Here's another guide if you want, which suits a little more to XP

Ok long time no see. I just read your posts and they still didn't help. I have the ligtsaber v 0.9 and the commander mods that I want to install. I installed the lightsaber mod and it worked just fine. then I decided to try the commander mod. I did what you said and put the mesh and textures folders in the data folder and said yes to replacing them. now neither of them work. I have to uninstall and re-install the game and start from scratch...

I have a problem.

 

so, I've turned UAC off (using win7), install the game not in program files (D:\Fallout 3), and activate the 'archive invalidation'

 

then some weird things happened:

 

main menu

Pip Boy menu

container menu

the first two problem is alright for me. just some messed up menu.

 

but the third is very annoying. I can't click to take or store items.

So It's impossible for me to reverse pickpocket, store items, take items, buy, sell, exploding anyone pants, anything related to click to take/store items. and every time I open the buy/sell menu, the game crashes.

 

can anyone help? thanks.
