[Help!] Restoring deleted assets in vanilla cell?

[Amalrix]

I've already been reading some Topic's about it but nothing worked so I'm creating my own Thread now. So I "accidently" deleted the start tower and some stuff in the Marakarth Guard Tower and then I saved my mod... Sadly I have no Backups of my File or something before it happened. I already used TES5Edit and deleted under "Cells" the Cell now the Changes I *added* are gone but the stuff I deleted is still gone?! Please help me!

As far as I know of there is no way to do this ... The asset isn't really "deleted" it's just set as removed in the save.

Maybe some type of save editor could fix your problem. Other then starting over that would be your best bet.

Of course It's only deleted in the .esp - Wouldn't be a Problem if in the Cell wouldn't be a Quest. Then I could just Copy it in another mod and re-link the Doors.

Oh, may bad I misread your question ... drrr ... You could try to Clean the mod or try loading up Steam and:

Right click: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, select [ Properties ]. Click the [Local Files] tab, then click [ Verify integrity of game cache ]

But it really sounds like the problem is in the mod itself ... maybe try both with the steam verify 1st.

I would think the Clean the mod option would work ... you may need to go watch a video on how to do that.

 

Also, TES5edit makes backups of the things you edit in a folder in the data folder ... [ TES5Edit Backups ]

Maybe It's a Problem with the Masterfile itself. I reset through Tes5Edit already every change made to the Cell.

Neither xEdit nor Creation Kit will allow you to edit the Skyrim.esm. The problem is in your ESP, another mod or the save file you are using.

 

The Creation Kit makes backups by default to the following location: Steam > SteamApps > Common > Skyrim > Backup

You may be able to find a version there that does not have the problem.

 

If not, and you cannot resolve it by removing records from your plugin in xEdit, you may be forced to delete the current ESP and re-build it from scratch.

Yes, I was going to say, for future reference, backups are kept automatically.

Also, in future, when you have an esp that is OK at one stage and saved, then you could copy a backup to another folder for when you next work on it. So, if you make a big cock-up like this again, you can restore the earlier esp if none of the incremental auto-backups are any good.

I think we've all done things like this. But, as someone said earlier, the problem is in your esp. Nothing can be deleted from Skyrim.esm itself.
