kagstrom2100 Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Hey, i got a problem with Geck. So i'm making a new mod and for the first time i'm using custom made textures ( Remade textures from the New Vegas vanilla textures ) i have done everything in Nifscope and that so i wan't to import it into geck, but i want to make it so that i can send the textures with the .esp when i upload the mod. So i made a folder named Vault 32 ( in the \Data\ folder ) and i activated the archive invalidator that came with FOMM, then i put the mesh and textures in this file path: \Data\Vault x\vault slide door\ Now i made a new door in geck and went over and try to add my mesh to geck but when i do it just says "Invalid directory". I have tried to put the mesh in the main fallout mesh folder then it works perfect, but i don't wan't to send all the main mesh and textures, just the one for my mod. Thanx fro any help on this kagstrom2100
micalov Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 They HAVE to be in the mesh/texture folders just create a sub directory for them ie textures/mykoolmod/awesometexture.dds ect.

scrivener07 Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 iirc the files packaged inside those .bsa file mods retain the same file structure we are advising you to use. the .bsa file is like a .zip, .7z , .rar, etc (sort of). Same goes for the games default bsa files, these also hold the same file structures that must be reflected in the games data folder.
