Branimirzg Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 you need this- ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csb Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 If you did use ArchiveInvalidationInvalidated and still get the red "!" in-game, it means you are missing a resource. Make sure that you installed the mod's meshes/textures folders properly. As mentioned above, Fallout3 will not "find" these resources by default, you need help. The "old" way was by adding the path information to a text file. It was error-prone and cumbersome. ArchiveInvalidationInvalidated, along with using Fallout Mod Manager (FOMM) gets rid of this nuisance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andev Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 I had the same issue after disabling various weapon & ammo mods. I was able to collect the ‘14mmPistol’ from NPC’s but once it was dropped outside a actor or box etc, (i.e. on the ground) it became a large red shape with a white exclamation mark & it was not possible to recover or recognise what the item was. I found the weapon mod (14mmPistolMod.esp) was still ticked in FOMM but ‘’ 14mmPistolModRR.esp’’ was not ticked. Removed the tick from (14mmPistolMod.esp) & the red shape was gone. Otherwise you might try running FO3Edit & looking for conflicts in Fallout.esm/Weapons. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
