ZombiePoptart Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Alright before anyone gets annoyed I've searched the forums beforehand. So far no one really has the exact same problem. Other people have been posting topics about weapons and armor having glitched textures when they use them and to correct it, they use the archive invalidation invalidate. This is not the case for me. I'm somewhat new to installing mods to Fallout 3 but I know well enough on how to install them and where to put them and how to activate them. Anyway so I downloaded some house mods (KORs underwater house, Mini Hideout, and Underground Hideout.) and they appear in the locations (Except the underground hideout becauseI can't install ir. I get a pop up saying "Unable to get write permissions to Fallout 3's installation directory. I know I need to run it as an administrator, but it doesn't show when I right click), Anyway I'm able to get to the houses but for some reason, some of the objects aren't there. In place of them are red diamonds with a (!) mark in them. I have no idea what i've done wrong. I used the FOMM, activated the archive invalidation invalidate, downloaded and ran the archive invalidation validate, and Iv'e checked the boxes next to the mods. I have the game of the year edition and am using a computer that uses windows 7. This is frustrating as I just want a simple house mod to store my stuff. I've also reinstalled my Fallout 3 but still nothing! I can't think of anything else right now but if I do I'll post it. Any help would be appreciated.

PowerVector Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 This may or may not be helpful...but usually when I see those red boxes with exclamation points it means that the object that was supposed to be there was part of an add-on you don't have like Broken Steel, Point Lookout, Anchorage, Zeta, etc... Not sure if this is helpful because I am not sure if the GOTY edition has these add-ons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this is helpful because I am not sure if the GOTY edition has these add-ons. The game of the year edition comes with ALL the addons. Broken Steel, Operation Anchorage, The Pitt, Point Lookout, and Mothership Zeta. It comes with a second disk that installs all of them to the data.

ZombiePoptart Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 Just an update. I downloaded the Blackwolf backpack and I noticed that there was a .bsp file. At first I didn't know what it was so I didnt use it but the backpacks were glitched up like everyhitng else. But then I put the .bsp into the data and it was magically fixed! Iv'e checked every other mod I downloaded and there is no .bsp file that comes with it. It seems mods that come with a .bsp file seem to work. Unless I also need the script extendor but it no mods i've downloaded say it requires it. I'd really appreciate help because I really want to use all the wonderful mods the commutiy has to offer.
