Monkeywrench2000 Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Hello, i was wondering if someone could give me a hand with a few mods by Narzuq. I downloaded the Redsword, Sulfuras, and Thunderfury from Narzuq. The textures for Redsword and Thunderfury are missing. The mesh and texture for Sulfuras are not there. But all the files are in there data files for textures and meshes. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Take care and thank you for your time.

Khet Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Two possibilities. Either the modder set up the meshes/textures wrong (so unless your game is installed in the EXACT same location as the modder) they won't work. This can be fixed in NifScope by removing the file path BEFORE Data\textures (it would have to be done for each mesh) Or you've installed the Meshes/Textures wrong. Throw me a link to the mod itself and I'll take a look and see what the cause is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khet Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Modder ran the textures wrong, at least he did for Sulfuras. I'm assuming he did the same for the other two also. If you have NifSkope you can fix it yourself, if not, it's not hard to do. http://niftools.sourceforge.net/wiki/NifSkope Download and install nifskope, launch it. Click on Load near the upper left and browse to the weapon MESH (Data\Meshes\Weapons\Sulfuran) and open it up in NifSkope. Then, open up the NiNode list (it's a dropdown) then click on 15 NiTriStrips then 17 NiTexturingProperty. Double click the Texture path under 18 NiSourceTexture and DELETE the following part of the path: c:\program files\bethesda softworks\oblivion\ All you should have remaining in the texture path will be: data\textures\weapons\sulfuras\sulmiddle.dds That should fix the missing texture problem, since the error is caused by YOU not having Oblivion installed in C:\Program Files. I've left a comment on the modder's file for Sulfuras, so he should catch it and be able to fix it himself. Edit: As for the missing mesh, you probably installed the Mesh itself wrong. Make sure you copied the Mesh folder into the Data directory and NOT the Sulfuran Folder. When I extracted it, this is the archive set up. E:\Oblivion Mods and Archives\Extracted Mods\New_Version_Sulfuras_better_normal_map-30542\Sulfuran\Meshes So, open up the Sulfuran folder then copy the Meshes folder, that should fix the missing mesh, but you'd probably still have to fix the texture problem.

Khet Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Still nothing as in bad texture? Then you've installed them wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeywrench2000 Posted April 1, 2010 Author Share Posted April 1, 2010 Still nothing as in bad texture? Then you've installed them wrong. Still having trouble with the mesh for sulfuras, as its just not showing up. Well, here are the paths that are in the file for the weapons. I'm just not seeing where my folly is.New_Version_better_textured-30540.rar D:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\Textures\weapons\ThunderfuryD:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\meshes\weapons\Thunderfury New_Version_better_textured-30559.rarD:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\Textures\weapons\RedswordofcourageD:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\meshes\weapons\Redswordofcourage New_Version_Sulfuras_better_normal_map-30542.rarD:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\Textures\weapons\SulfuranD:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\meshes\weapons\SulfuranThese are the paths on my PC.

Khet Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Probably a stupid question, but are you running Vista with UAC enabled? If so, that could be your reason since you've installed to Program Files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
