Items added in chests help.

[chickenpotato]

Hi,

 

Whenever i DL a mod that add items to the game, like "Find these items in a chest @ <location>", the chest never shows up in the game.

 

Anyone know why?

 

Thanks.

1. Make sure your game is patched up to date.

2. Make sure you installed the mod correctly, and activated it before running the game.

3. If the mod puts chest somewhere in the town/city, check if you're using some mod that changes any part of the town/city. If the mod puts chest somewhere in town worldspace, using Open Cities will cause incompatibility with any mod that puts objects in town/city.

Are other mods working properly? Or are all mods not showing up in the game?

This is common with Vista and Win7 systems but not on XP

 

For Vista and Win7 related problems such as UAC, Check here:

I cant patch it up as i up using oldblivion, but oldblivion wouldn't make a difference because it only changes the shades from shader model 2 to shader model 1.

The mods are all installed correctly and all activated. the only mods i have trouble with are ones that add items into chests.

i am not using opencities or any similar mod.

 

I have windows vista with UAC DISABLED.

Many mods will not work unless you have the latest patch. Others will not work without OBSE. That is not a problem with the mod, but a limitation of Oldblivion.
