tehx3n Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Hello, I have recently been working on a big quest mod for oblivion. I have done all the work on my stationary so far, but I installed obvlivion on my laptop to try and test the mod there, it didnt work. I tried all my previous mods on the laptop only to find that they didnt work either, I have obse, both the official expansion packs, and many smaller mods on my stationary, however my laptop is completely bare with no mods or expansions whatsoever, I can only assume that since i made the mod on the stationary it requires one of the mods there, but i'm sure i didn't accidentally check an the wrong esp in the cs. I tried tried unchecking all esp's and running it without obse active on the stationary, and the mod worked fine, but i cant find any way to get it to work on my laptop, since it worked without obse, im guessing its one of the expansion packs, but i didn't accidentally check thier esp's in the cs, and if i put something from one of them in game wouldnt it just show a missing mesh error rather than the whole mod not working. So my question is, is it possible for a mod to require another mod, just because it was made on a pc with that mod installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrettyMurky Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 however my laptop is completely bare with no mods or expansions whatsoeverDoes this mean you also don't have the latest patch? Many mods require this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarRatsG Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Depends what you mean by doesn't work. If Oblivion just doesn't start, then you may be correct, there may be a missing master. But yes, PrettyMurky is correct, the latest patch is needed. If there is a missing master, you can find out by downloading Wrye Bash, available on Tesnexus. Once installed, run it, click on your mod and you should see a list of all the masters in a box on the right. Wrye bash is several steps above OBMM in terms of uses, and a mile and a half above the oblivion launcher. While it may seem unbelievably complicated, it really isn't any more complicated than the Construction Set, plus you will only ever need about 10% of all it's features. Trust me, after a while you won't be able to live without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
