BioClone Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 You could get drunk, high on meth, and throw darts at a dartboard two blocks away and be just as accurate guessing where in the world Bethesda decided to locate any given asset in their insane file structure. So I just extract *all* of them to an extracted meshes folder on one of my harddrives and use file manager to search using partial words. It also makes it easier to browse potential directories. Other times it's easier to find the object in the CK, open it up and look up the path from there. It doesn't help that the mesh file names are not always even remotely similar to their CK object names. Unfortunately I'm at work so I can't look it up for you right now. But maybe these ideas will help. For what it's worth, I use Bethesda Archive Extractor when I want to extract all the files because it checks them all by default. I was afraid I had to see it through CK... I was expecting that maybe there was any structure I didnt figure, or maybe any place where can be seen "a list" about what and where is every object located Meshes\DLC02\SetDressing\Workshop Whoah man, im going to decompress that in no-time! Setdresing/Workshop? I think i could have taken all my life figuring it was there... (I found easily things like the ****king greenhouse assets, but those concrete ones... :sick: ) Thank you all 4 the tips & info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethreon Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 While I agree their naming and folder structures are all over, you get used to it after a while. If you need finding statics you can ask, I could tell you where to look for it and maybe even the file name. Been fiddling them for far too long..

damanding Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I do fine with clutter items, it's the structural building components that I'm less familiar with. But you want to know where to find the prewar and postwar coffee mugs? Hint...they're not located in the same place because that would make too much sense.

greekrage Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 LOL its in fact insane... I was looking for bunker parts and found "bunker " but it was bunker HILL parts instead and then looked below and saw "bun....." Seriously Bethesda ? You name 10 parts with a location name and leave the 50 actual bunker parts with a partial name (3 letters ) ?? Not to mention some bunker parts are also in the "conc" category...lol just lol... Worst is that you end up using something similar cause you couldnt find what you needed and later on down the road you accidentally find the needed part having completed the mod weeks before... :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
