Bodies not showing up?

[lolcliff]

At first I was experiencing the general overlapping problem, but now no matter what I do, only the vanilla body shows up. I'm slightly new to the whole Archive Invalidation stuff since I don't recall using it with FO3 or Oblivion, and I was able to mod those with ease. Right now I'm trying to get Type3 to work @_@.

 

Since I feel like I probably messed up the whole thing, I was thinking I should trash it all and start over with a clean install. I never had this much trouble modding a Bethesda game before o.o

if you look at the Top 100 page, the first mod should be the Beware Of Girl Type 3 body

in this mod, there is an Archive Invalidation text file

if you use it, it should probably solve the problems you are having

Thank you. Sorry to sound like such a noob, but...What do I exactly DO with the text file? I just drop it in the data folder and that's it? Also mine never came with an Archive Invalidation. Just the .bsa o.o

this is from that mod's description:

 

Unpack compressed folder for your chosen body type and drag the files into your data folder. For now this version uses a

ArchiveInvalidation.txt file for correct texture showing until FOMM catches up with New Vegas. So be sure the text file is present in your data folder.

 

NOTE: Have you tried to set up archieveinvalidationinvalidated? manually for your New Vegas yet. It`ll remove the need for ArchiveInvalidation.txt with any more texture changing mods including my body replacer. If not go here. I know it`s for Fallout 3 but it`ll work for NV. Download the manual version. Extract and move the archieveinvalidationinvalidated.bsa to your Fallout New Vegas data folder. Then look for your Fallout.ini and fallout_default.ini files. The Fallout.ini File will be in Your documents folder under `My Games` (where your saves folder is) and your Fallout_default.ini in your Fallout New Vegas folder where your FalloutNV.exe is. Open them both up. Scroll down and look for for [Archive] change it so it looks like this

 

 

[Archive]

SInvalidationFile=

iRetainFilenameOffsetTable=1

iRetainFilenameStringTable=1

iRetainDirectoryStringTable=1

bCheckRuntimeCollisions=0

bInvalidateOlderFiles=1

bUseArchives=1

SArchiveList=Fallout - Voices1.bsa, Fallout - Sound.bsa, Fallout - Misc.bsa, ArchiveInvalidationInvalidated!.bsa, Fallout - Textures.bsa, Fallout - Textures2.bsa, Fallout - Meshes.bsa

 

Only the first and last line need to change.

 

Make sure both .ini files are like that and save. Make sure the ArchiveInvalidationInvalidated!.bsa is in your Fallout New Vegas data folder and you should be set. Remove any ArchiveInvalidation.txt files as you will not need them anymore.
