Iameggman Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Mart's Monster Mod doesn't seem to be installing correctly, I'm using Oblivion Mod Manager and I've also got Oscuro's Overhaul installed already. I don't plan on installing FCOM, just OOO and MMM. I downloaded the 4 files: MMM38.rarMMM38BSA.7zMMM 3.8 ReadMe and Version History.rar All 3 from MMM page at the TESAlliance. I also downloaded the TheNiceOne OMOD Installer from the Nexus. I added MMM38.rar (from archive) to the OMOD then MMM 38BSA (from archive), although nothing showed up in the box, and then the conversation data (from archive). I then created it, and went through the installer. After selecting Less Rats, I get a message saying I didn't add the BSA, so I didn't want to continue with the installation. I had read the readme before, although I believed I may have missed the rename the BSA to ''Mart's Monster Mod.bsa, however within the bsa file i downloaded, it's already called that. I then started to experiment... Can't really recall what I did but I renamed the archive itself, I might of renamed the bsa inside, sorry I can't be much help here, it was redmist. But I tried the installation again and did the same process, but this time after the Less Rats, there was no pop up saying I didn't add the bsa, and I installed MMM. However, I ran Tes4Edit, I got the following message ''Background Loader: Fatal: <Exception: C:\Games\Oblivion\steamapps\common\Oblivion\data\Mart's Monster Mod for OOO.bsa is not a valid BSA file>'' My game loaded, and so did my save game before leaving the sewers, but as soon as I left it crashed, I started a new game, but encountered missing mesh icons on the goblins weapons I believe. This save also crashed when I left the sewers. I'm sure the problem is related about the renaming bsa business, but I just don't understand what I'm supposed to be renaming and how... I've added mods to Oblivion fine until this problem occurred and It's making me lose my mind. Please help, thank you. PS. MMM isn't installed right now, however I can if you want a load order, even though i definitely think it's the bsa renaming thing that's confusing me.

IkeCoast Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 In the MMM Omod Installer page, Comments section, there are detailed instructions on how to use the Installer with the newer version of MMM, including which file to rename and how to rename it. It's the comment by UWShocks. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iameggman Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the reply, I think this may have done it. I'm just waiting for it to finish compressing which i didn't have to do before :laugh: Can't believe i didn't take much notice of that post though, I've even got a comment on there. It's just one of those weeks I guess... Thank's again! I'll let you know what happens. EDIT: Also, Is it wise to rebuild my bashed patch after installing this? along with creating a merged patch in Tes4Edit? EDIT 2: The game has loaded, and I left the sewers without any crashes and I've encountered new creatures. Haven't ran into any problems yet. Looking good.

IkeCoast Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Hey, looks like everything went well this time! Good! High five! And yes, it's advisable to rebuild your bashed patch and fine tune the merged patch with TES4Edit. Just remember to backup the original bashed patch before, just in case. Cheers!

IkeCoast Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Iggypop, this thread is not for NMM, it's for Martin's Monster Mod. You should address your issue to the official NMM thread. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
