Lucius_Dei Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Hello all. I have recently found myself in the old archivevalidation problem... in Skyrim. I had mods before doing anything and they worked fine (maybe because they were mostly textures), but once I wanted to try a body and races mod I decided to get the Nexus Mod Manager, just in case needed to activate it and such. Following what I learned on Oblivion I activated the data file of the race and placed the body mod in position (it had no esp or esm, so I figure that it didn't needed the manager but the races did), so, just in case I activated the ArchiveInvalidation thingy. I have the theory that it was that what actually broke the game. Now, skins and eyes look black, with detail but black, eyes are broken glass and such. See pic for detail.http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m527/Kairandor/ScreenShot1.jpghttp://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m527/Kairandor/ScreenShot0.jpgAt first I felt it was the validation, but just to be sure I tried unistalling all mods and reinstalling. I checked and the races mod never got activated and added, I had to manually activate the Data Files option for that and after that I don't last one minute in game before it crashes, but that's another story that It really doesn't matter. The thing is that now I cannot reverse the ArchiveInvalidation thing. Any help with that? Seems the Nexus Mod Manager won't do anything for me as I stated with the data files of the races.

Xydonus Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 (edited) Pretty much having the same problem, it won't let me remove archive invalidation, and it has screwed up some of the textures. Edited November 21, 2011 by Xydonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucius_Dei Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 Pretty much having the same problem, it won't let me remove archive invalidation, and it has screwed up some of the textures. And I have no idea were it is to manually remove it. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xydonus Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Well, I've managed to solve all my texture issues. Just uninstalled Nexus Manager, reinstalled it, didn't touch the Archive Invalidation, and it just seemed to resolve all my problems doing that...

xeroax Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 The only solution I can see is to reinstall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xydonus Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Not for me. Did you do anything else? Try reinstalling any texture/body mods you've currently got installed, might help. Just re-overwrite the files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
