Maigrets Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I gather you're trying to use items from another mod in yours. You can't just add items to your esp from another esp. You either have to use a process called Mod De-isolation:http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index...lation_Tutorial Or, manually add the items in the CS by first having the mod installed and creating new items. Start here for info and tutorials for beginners:http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index...tion_Set_Primer Also make sure you are using the CS version 2.0 and have your game patched to the latest otherwise anything you add to your mod will not show up in the game and can even cause it to crash. Another thing - are you making your esp ACTIVE when you load the CS. If not, then no changes you make will be saved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titaniumsoul Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Ok i'll try this thank you. sorry that my question made no sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titaniumsoul Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Well I looked at the tutorial's and they dident solve what i needed to figure out, heres my question again. I was wondering, how do you take a mod that's labeled a rar file in the data folder and put it into the game to put one problem simply. Then when I figure it out I activate my mod in the CS then I add something from the mod thats labeled a rar file. then I save and quit then I go back activate both mods and the items from the mod thats labeled rar file in the data folder are missing. this is as simple as i can put it.

And I'm still not entirely certain what the construction set has to do with this.. if you could elaborate on that some, I could try to help you out with that.* Okay.. The Rar files themselves do not need to be in your oblivion folder. They can go anywhere. Open them up, and extract them to your Oblivion\Data folder. Now open up the Oblivion launcher. Click [Data files] There should be a list of all the mods you've extracted into your Data folder. Click the ones on that you want. Click Ok. Now play. If you're running Vista, you may need to run it as administator for the mods to stay activated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titaniumsoul Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 ugh I know how to download extract etc rar files (i master it) but the thing is, is when I put the item from the mod in the cs on my own mod which is active and I save it then i quit the CS then later i go back to the CS and mod the same active file the items disappear it's really starting to bug me a whole lot but I can wait :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brasher Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Be sure that you give the item from the old mod, that you are adding to the new mod, a unique form ID. Otherwise it will not be there in the new save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
