Fallout 3 Wanderers Edition texture problems.

Edit:

The merged patch did not solve my issue, but at least I learned something new!

I was afraid that might happen. It sounds like a problem with a faulty installation of one of your mods, i.e. some texture file(s) failed to copy or ended up in the wrong folder. If you had a systematic installation method you followed when you loaded in these mods, then you might be able to backtrack to figure out which one didn't get all its files into the proper folders. If not, you may need to build FOMODs of all your mod archives and reinstall the ones that have texture updates in them.

To anyone getting FWE weapons without texture, i.e, desert eagle shimmering white, DK501 sniper flashing colors etc., all you need to do is manually download FWE pt 1 and pt 2, then go into your game folder and find "Data/Textures/Weapons" and look in the folders that say "2handrifle" "1handgrenadethtrow" etc. Then open the manually downloaded FWE folders, (I download them to my desktop) and find the corresponding folder. If you look you will find that there are a whole bunch of textures in the FWE file that did not load into your actually texture folder when you downloaded through NMM. All you need to do is extract everything in the FWE folders to the corresponding folders in your Data/Textures/weapons/etc. folder and the textures should appear on your weapons now. I apologize if this is common knowledge but I couldn't find anything that would fix this extremely frustrating and immersion breaking issue so I thought I would share . Feel free to ask anymore questions if I explained this horridly XD!

I had the same issue with textures, what really helped me is downloading both part 1 and part 2 + FWE hotfix
