If you did activated archive invalidated and it doesn't work then you haven't installed textures correctly.

 

Do you have any other mods installed?

 

Welcome!

no

Now I see what you meant...It changes to 3-4 diffrent armors while moving :ohmy:

[Branimirzg]

Ok...This mods textures are not packaged

 

1. You will need to add new folder named textures in your data folder(if you don't have it already)

2. In textures folder add another new folder named armor

3. copy Assassin Gear folder with 4 dds files to armor folder

 

Simple- 4 dds files from this mod must be in path- data/textures/armor/Assassin Gear

I tried it but it still changes colors.

[Branimirzg]

hmm...It should work normaly

 

1. Are you sure that you have created right path? data/textures/armor/Assassin gear?

2. In fallout mod manager use button toggle invalidation and then click on apply invalidation

I have used one or two Archive invalidator programs and found them to be useless, and more or less don't work.

 

I recommend you fix this yourself, don't worry its not terribly complicated, it just involves changing an .ini file.

 

Theres various tutorials on the internet and can't remeber it at the top of my head, I'm on my laptop right now, which doesn't have FO3, if not fixed by morning, I'll talk you through it.

 

PS: I also suggest you download Fallout 3 Mod Manager, you can find it on the nexus, I know that invalidation program works, and it will let you use mods easier!

In FOMM, click the Toggle invalidation button. There's no need really for Archive Invalidation Invalidated.

 

You should also get ElminsterAU's FO3Edit ... it's a must-have for finding and resolving mod conflicts. You'll want Miax's great FO3Edit Guide - Web-enized to learn how to use the utility, particularly the chapter on conflict detection and resolution.

I was able to get 2 weapon mods to work the 15th century sword and the m4 carbine bit I still can't get any armor mods to work properly and when I yried to use a quest mode called Ragnarok Arena it had multiple ! symbols all over the area.What am I doing wrong I extracted the files into the data file and then transfered them in the texture and meshes file but it did not did not help.I am willing to take any and all Advice availible.
