Gageownssorry Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Alright so im pretty much an idiot to this modding stuff. After about 2 hours of frustration yesterday, I was able to figure out how to get my mods on oblivion. So far ive put in Castle Seaview, Dread Knight Armor, Frostmourne Sword, Midas Spells, and the 1.2.0416 Oblivion Patch. Here are the problems. Castle Seaview: I can get barely close enough to see it, but when I try to go much closer, the game crashes. Pretty much everything else: When I go to A Fighting Chance in the imperial city and buy the Dread Knight Armor or the Frostmourne Sword, they are invisible in the merchants inventory and my own. And when I then try to equip the items, I get the huge "WTF im a missing mesh" exclamation point. The same things happens when i try to use Midas Spells. Once again im extremely new to adding in mods so dont be to tough on my noobness. Any helpful information as to fixing these problems would help a LOT, thanks. :thanks: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyfieriinaratmask Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Have you tried setting the mods to Wumbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XJDHDR Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 What did you copy into your Oblivion's data files. With some of your mods, you probably have some folders called "meshes" and "textures" with the ESP files. You need to extract the contents of these folders into your Data folder as well. As for Castle Seaview, try the link in my signature and see if that solves your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Brasher Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 It is very easy to put your meshes and textures in the wrong place. You may need to merge folders, and the computer will ask you something like "Foolish mortal! Are you sure that you wish to do that?" It might be rather intimidating, but you do want to do it. You will also want to copy and replace duplicate files when merging the folders. If your mesh and texture files are lost in your directories, give up on them. Uncompress another copy of them and merge them with your data folder again. Someday you will find the lost files by chance and you can erase them then. Occasionally a careless modder will also put the files in the wrong folders, and it won't work and it won't be your fault. You can keep on referring back to the compressed mod file of the one you are trying to install, and make sure all the nif's and dds's are where they belong.
