Im new to mods and i just need to know how to manually install it so it works.

Why don't you use OMOD? It's very comfortable for any mods with a lot of options. It doesn't need any special skills to use.

 

For manual install don't dump all the files into Data, open and choose by screenshots the ones you want. Unless you need an underwear version, you'll have to pick lower and upper body separately. Then open your chosen folder and copy "meshes" and "textures" from there into "Oblivion/Data" folder. In all, you need to copy one option for upper body, one for lower body, feet, and hands.

 

In addition you seem to need installing textures as well. Ten either get them from Exnem's Eye Candy mod (either install first, or don't overwrite the meshes), or pick one of these: Ozmo's or Navetsea's, but they both use OMOD installation, so I recommend it again. It saves a lot of time.

i would use omod but it doesnt like my windows 7 and i dont know how to run it heh i think i get what you mean let me work a little bit and figure it out heh.

[Truescissors]

how do you get OMOD and work it. im new to mods here :/

Oblivion Mod Manager. Installs mods in OMOD format. Install OMM, run it, pick "load", find the required omod file, press "activate". In your case you will be offered to pick options prior to installation. One of texture mods has it's own installer additionally, there you just run an .exe file and pick options just the same. They are illustrated.

Now that the official business is taken care of:

Use a unzipping program - such as the FREE 7-zip available on the Nexus.

Extract (unzip) the compressed file (HGECBody_v1dot21.7z) into a separate folder.

Open the folder, Open either underwear or nude folder. Select the body type from the three choices (only one allowed) open that one. If you install the nude, your game will be NSFW (R rated) from now on.

 

Copy (do not move) both the textures and Meshes folders from that folder directly into the Oblivion\data folder. If you already have meshes and textures folders (they are not created until they are needed) you may get a message about 'overwriting" answer Yes, it does not overwrite it actually appends to the folder without overwriting anything.

As there is NO esp there is nothing to mark in the data list - the new body automatically replaces the existing body. Note: it does NOT change the faces. They will still be the same. You will probably not even notice the new body until you strip an NPC as it will be covered by their clothing.

 

Once this has been done, unless you know how, it will be difficult to remove this mod. That is why the OMOD version is preferred. It is easy to remove and add to the game.

i dont understand how to DL the omod versions for the mods tho im kinda confused got OBMM and all that

[Sarya]

OMOD files are downloaded the same way. In mod's files section they are usually marked as "OBMM", "OMOD", or similarly.

 

Note that you actually need an .esp in a very specific case - female Khajiits use the same textures as male ones by default and will look weird with custom bodies installed, unless the female body used is Robert's.
