donnor777 Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 WHen you download the Ancient Towers mod for some reason when I get there I get giant cubes and junk with grey exclamation points. The knights showed up and the bandit was there just fine but what i believe to be the acual towers is just bright yellow cubes. Here on the link to the mod http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=16308, there is a comment saying to reinstall oblivion and SI and it will save your games. 1 do I have to do anything to save my games, 2 will I have to re load all of my mods from this site or would they still be saved. If anyone can give me a little light on the subject please reply quickly. thank you for your time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brasher Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 You have missing meshes. Here are some possibilities: (1) The mod got installed incorrectly. The meshes from the downloaded file were probably put into the wrong directory. (2) The meshes weren't even put into your directories.Rarer problems: (3) The mod is built wrong and doesn't work for anyone.(4) You have too many mods and are having archive invalidation problems. Don't worry about option 3 or option 4 for now. Examine the file paths of the meshes in the compressed downloaded file in one window. Look at how the meshes are installed in your Oblivion folder, you will probably spot a difference and therefore a problem. The two sets of file paths need to be exactly the same. Make them that way. If you have a mod that is installed improperly, reinstalling Oblivion will just be a hassle and won't solve anything. It is possible to reinstall Oblivion, if it comes down to that, without losing any of your mods or savegames. But you ought to take precautions and be sure you know exactly what you are doing. It is really easy to make backups of important files in case anything goes wrong. Whenever you download a mod, it is best to keep the compressed downloaded file and not delete it. That way you can save a lot of time and not have to re-download if anything ever goes wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timber57 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Hey, I downloaded v 1.3 full and created/ activated an omod with OBMM, but mod is not activated in game... no bandit or camp to start the questline. First mod that this has happened. Only thing is I left out was DistantLOD as per readme instructions because it conflicted with another mod. Does anyone have any ideas or solutions to help?
