Lot's of WTF Mesh errors on a clean save

[jagged203]

I recently added a lot of mods to Oblivion. I probably have around 80, I haven't done a full check. I assumed I needed to do a new save, as a large amount of the mods I added created new objects. I haven't had any WTF errors before, they started appearing on this new save. In case it helps, this is my load order:

I'm not sure what the problem is, but I doubt it's fixable. I just wanted to check here first before I do a full re-download of Oblivion

[DrakeTheDragon]

The 'WTF - I'm a missing mesh' error indicators do not come from load order or different savegames. They're exactly what they say, a NIF file a plugin is pointing to is physically missing.

 

If you say there are a lot of them, my best guess would be one of the bigger mod packs not installed correctly, maybe only an update without the main resources, or missing some additional resource packages along the road. Also possible would be a BSA from one or more of these not being loaded by the game, due to it neither being plugin-bound (BSAs with a name similar to an active plugin get loaded automatically, as is the sole purpose of the 'empty' DLCShiveringIsles.esp) nor listed in your Oblivion.ini in the list of BSAs to be loaded (a change to your INI the readme would've instructed you to do).

 

OOO, FRAN's, Cobl are immediately jumping out to me in this regard. But it would have course help knowing what things those are which are missing their meshes now. The famous mod/tool "FormID Finder" or similar may be of help here.

 

(edit: Why does it always turn "of" into "have" when I try to fix it? It's not "have course", it's "of course", of course!)

The missing meshes issue happens when the directory of the meshes and textures of an object don't match.

 

Since the directory of the meshes is the one you should use to edit the directory of the textures, I advise you check your mods folders.
