This is a problem with the game not locating the meshes (and maybe also the textures), but the Red alerts are for missing meshes. Are these your mods or other peoples mods?. Sounds like the meshes are not in the correct location which means the folder structure is somehow not correct. Did you drag and drop the mod files into the data folder, or did you by mistake add a second data folder inside the existing data folder? Do you have FOMM---fallout mod manager? If you are not using FOMM, I recommend you download it and use it to install your mods as it will unzip them and stick them in the folders the modder wants them in.

Hope this helps.

You need to have your meshes and textures in the correct folders like this: Data/meshes/MyModName and Data/textures/MyModName ( if the folders do not exist yet, you will need to make them and then stick your files in them ). Are you modding existing game objects or adding entirely new objects? If you are adding entirely new objects, I won't be able to assist you further since I have no experience at that.

If the above did not help you check in the edit of the weapon if you only use the model for that weapon.

It is in the art and sounds tab, all you need is the model.

First person and world model are not needed and can be set to none or empty.

To make world model empty,press edit and when you can choose a folder just press cancel.

This will make it so you use no world model.

If the above is set right and still having issues,see if it is set like this. ;)
