You're missing a mesh somewhere .... hence the big exclamation mark and red triangle ...

Do you have Archive Invalidation Invalidated, FOSE, and FOMM ?

Have you created a folder on your desktop where you download all of your Mods into ?

From there open your Mod folder and open your C:\program files\Bethesda softworks\data\. then extract your Mod files .... drag the Mod's mesh folder to Fallout's mesh folder,

texture to textures, esp to esp (click ok if asked to overwrite any files) ..... then check the Mod's esp box in FOMM and lastly dont forget to toggle Archive Invalidation.

I'm sure you know all this stuff already but there's nothing wrong with checking it again ...... personally I think it's Archive Invalidation you need to toggle.

Even better still open the Mod with FOMM ....

hope this helps.

 

P.s - Do yourself a very big favor - make a copy of your mesh, texture and sound files (in your Fallout 3 data folder and save them somewhere safe),

trust me you're gonna save yourself a lot tears and frustration, I know !
