Mods overwritten data files =/

[Fuuuzz]

Okay so I downloaded the "Dreadweave complete" mod ad dragged the data file into my Oblivion directory and hit yes to overwrite thinking that it would not delete the other files just replace them if needed and add the new ones. Now my files look like this: ( I put all 4 pictures in a spoiler to save space )

Once I had done that I loaded up my save and everything in the cell that i saved in seemed to be fine ad I had all of my stuff but I did not leave my save area in-case it messed up. Can anybody settle my mind by telling me if it is fine or not?

Should be fine. Modders commonly create their own folder structure for items they add to the game. Keep the folder structure neater.

If this is somehow the only mod you installed so far, everything should be fine as it is. By default there are no files in the meshes or textures folders, I think even the folders themselves don't exist, before you installed a mod with its own resource files.

However, if you know for certain there were other mods' resource files in your meshes and textures folders before which are now gone, then it might actually be saying "replace" instead of "merge" (don't know exactly what it's called in an english OS) when asked killed them.
