Missreika Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I'm trying to install some mods, most of them have gone in perfectly, but there are some that state 'requires script in order to install correctly', even launching through FOSE doesn't seem to help that I can see. and ingame the mods are visible as far as inventory but don't show up in the actual game. (I'm specifically trying to install the Puella Magi Madoka mods. (Homura and the school uniforms) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackRampage Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Ah. Well, the error message you get is simply because that mod cannot be installed via FoMM's package manager. The only answer is to circumvent this by installing the mod the old fashioned way: By copying and pasting the mod's folders and files into the appropriate Fo3 directories. You can also check the readme for this. Most mod readme's provide instructions for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I take it that's what you mean by installing manually? I'm fairly new to the whole Mod things, I've played fallout just not on PC.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackRampage Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 So do I basically have to delete them from FOMMIf by removing it from FoMM, you mean remove it from FoMM's package manager: Yes. When manually installing it, don't just copy the Mod''s folder into the data folder though. With most mods you have to open up the mod's folder. There's usually 1 or more .esp's or .esm's in it. Those need to be put straight into the "data" folder.Then there's usually 1 or more folders labeled "Texture" or "Meshes" or both. These can also be put into the data folder. When it asks whether you want to override, simply select yes. After that, open FoMM, and if everything went well, you'll see the mod's .esp's and/or .esm's in it. That's all there is to it.

vforvic Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Delete the Screen Shot "SS" directory and the readmes and it should work in the FOMM Package Manager. They are not needed in game anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried, it doesn't seem to work, and for some reason mod manager keeps crashing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missreika Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 Okay nevermind it worked, had to remove all the excess copies of the files from the data folder first from where I had coppied them before. >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
