chancua Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I downloaded and installed a few mods into Oblivion using OBMM, and I have an odd problem. Any mod that I use that adds new, non-equipment objects, ends up with those objects as giant yellow triangles with exclamation points in the middle. I have downloaded all of the required mods.If anyone could help me solve this problem, I really would like to play Midas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric31415 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 The easy,albeit temporary, solution is to download the Midas Magic full OMOD. It will handle correct mesh and texture installation for you. The reason you see the big exclamation points is because a mesh did not get installed correctly. You say that you are installing mods via OBMM. Are you installing pre-made OMODs, creating your own, or installing manually and only activating thru OBMM?

chancua Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 a mmmix of the three. This happens with all of the mods that I download that add anything such as a new monster etc. I just used Midas as an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chancua Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 What really weirds me out is the fact that the equipment works just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric31415 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) Yeah, the equipment would still work. The item's stats are part of the esp file. What is missing is the mesh (3-D model), and probably the corresponding texture (surface). The game knows what the item is, and what it should do, but cannot display it without the mesh/texture. To see if you have made any of the more common mistakes with mesh/texture installation, please check the following; Open your Oblivion/Data folder, is there a subfolder called "data"?Open Oblivion/Data/Meshes, is there a subfolder here called "meshes" or "data"? Also, post an example of a mod you had trouble with. Please choose a fairly simple mod, and describe exactly how you installed it.

chancua Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 I checked the things that you told me to. All things are as they should be. All of the mods that I download I install from the archives using OBMM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
