okaypunk Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I'm having the same problem setting up the game for a friend. I did manage to work around it: Install the mods as you usually would, this makes sure any options you select for textures are installed in the NMM Virtual Install folder and also installs the esps. After you've done that, go to your Virtual Install folder and find all the mods you installed with textures. If you open their folders most of them will have other folders like meshes/textures etc. Copy these into the Data folder in your Fallout 4 install. It's a ballache and makes uninstalling mods a pain in the arse. The friend I'm installing for doesn't mess around with his setup so for him it'll be fine, but if you like to try out various things and pull them then make sure you note which files belonged to which mod, or keep a backup for reference. I've not found an actual "fix" and this problem seems to be relatively new, but hopefully someone of great brain and compassion will know something about it. I'm investigating but I am only of great compassion and very little brain!sorry i know this is an old thread... i have tried absolutely everything under the sun. I've installed "ELF", made manual .ini changes, checked if there are (*) next to the mods in the plugin.txt files and tried with read only checked, clean install, deleted all mods and re-installed, maybe a few more things I've tried I forget at this point. The only thing I HAVEN'T tried is completely delete NMM and re-install it. It doesn't want to backup my skyrim mods on the SSD i wanted it to and i really dont want to resort to this becuase it would suck ass to re-install all my skyrim mods as well. If i delete NMM will my mods remain? If you have any other suggestions I would love to hear them, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
