nrot Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Hi again, noob seeks more help on his journey for Oblivion bliss... I've followed a very in-depth video tutorial on setting up FCOM from the ground up (fresh install). Link: (first of 5 parts) I was very careful to do everything exactly how it was explained in the tutorial (which appeared to followed the guide on the official forums pretty closely) but apparently I did something wrong and I have at least two issues... 1. I'm using 'Alternate Start' to bypass the sewer intro and after choosing my race, backstory, etc. I get a CTD after resting in the cabin bed. I've tried multiple times using different races/gender/class/starting zone/etc. and they all land me at the same CTD (even with fastexit2 installed, and running from OBSE launcher, strangely enough). 2. I disabled Alternate Start, and going through the catacombs right after leaving the jail cell, I started getting a couple "WTF missing mesh" icons. Fortunately, I don't get CTD when alternate start is disabled (might be fastexit2 kicking in, haven't tested that yet). I've run BOSS, and it doesn't give any warnings. I'm having a hard time seeing where I went wrong. I know there is a way to post my load order and other important info, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that, could anyone steer me in the right direction? :psyduck: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansaltman Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I for one have never installed FCOM or read much about it. Make sure that for every .esp or .esm you have, you have all the required textures/meshes. Otherwise the game will try to load data that just isnt there. A load order might help as well.

HeyYou Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Did you forget to rename the MMM.bsa file? (or, was it the frans bsa file? I know one of them has to be renamed to load properly.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It turns out that although I had changed the file name of MMM.bsa, the change didn't stick for whatever reason. :dry: I renamed it a second time and the change stuck, and my problem was resolved. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
