How To Install Plugins/mods


Stampede

Recommended Posts

I've tried to install the Akaviri Imports mod, and I've been mostly successful. I can find the building, I can go inside, talk to SeverianCryo and buy the swords that I'm leveled for. But there's no image for the swords. I can even equip them and use them, but all I'm holding is a big exclamation point. I've tried several times to go through and install it, and nothing has seemed to work. Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Thanks :)

Because so many people don't know what a .rar, .zip, or .7zip is I am just going to say this so hopefully some people will see this...

 

Do get 7zip. Go to www.google.com and do a search for 7zip. Download and install the 7zip program. That program can pretty much extract anything.

I can't stress this enough. In my opinion it is the best extractor out there and since you will need it anyway to get some mods you should get it as your extractor.

ok. i am having the worst of troubles: so, i extract everything out of the zip file (this is the Cloas and Capes Mod by the way). I place all of the textures in my textures file and meshes in the mesh file. BUT the cloaks and capes are invisible, as if they didnt exist. the Mod Creator decidedto be cool and drop the project so he/she is ignoring everyones questions. actually, i think the creato ignored them from the get-go.

anyway, the cloaks and capes just dont exist. i can buy them, fine, and the icons work, but when i put the articles of clothing on, nothing happens. not even the annoying yellow block appears. and with the cloaks, my ears and hair disappear. with the capes, that doesnt happen. and teh .esp file box i checke in the Data Files screen. so it is installed correctly.

once again, my downloaded clothes are invisible. so any help would be much appreciated.

thanks.

 

i have a feeling questions wont be answered for a long while...

 

EDIT: Posts merged. Please don't bump, it's against the rules. Thanks. ^^

Here's my question. See, I downloaded NPC's With Jobs and for iot to work properly I'm suposed to:

"To have a fully working LOD in Aledra, NPC with jobs.esm needs to be loaded directly after oblivion.esm."

What does this mean exactly? Something to do with the Construction Set?

 

Thanx in andvance!

The LOD is the distant land- so if you can see all the distant land, and I guess it must mean it's set to max (in the game options), then that's fine.

 

To make the NPC with jobs.esm load after Oblivion.esm, you need to get OBMM (there's a link in my last post in this thread), and in the list on the left of the screen in OBMM, move NPCs with Jobs.esm so it is directly below Oblivion.esm. That should make it work.
