Warlord3105 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I'm new to modding as in doing the actual mod work myself, so this may be a noob question, but can I have a directory of where to find the Oblivion original meshes? I can't find them in the Meshes folder, only the meshes for my downloaded mods. Specifically I just want the dark brotherhood hood mesh (The one that goes with the robe, not the leather suit). Whether it's just hidden, in some folder I missed inside the Mesh folder or it's not in the oblivion directory, I just can't find it myself. Note: Please don't say in the Meshes folder.

Note: Please don't say in the Meshes folder.Actually they are in the meshes folder, yet they are there but inside the 'packed' BSA format in your /data. If you want to edit vanilla files you must export them from the respective BSA and work in that copy. Never edit the original files, never import the edited files again inside the BSA. Notice the game will use your edited files instead the original and so there is no reason to mess with them. Obviously you will need utilities that allows exporting files from BSA and you will find several here on nexus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not actually going to EDIT the meshes, I want to use them on a hood that takes up the head and hair slots so that I look headless And I found them, thanks for your time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
