ElieLikeSnow Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Hello, fellow Skyrim gamers I'm new here and I have a problem that I'm not sure whether many of you have or not but I've tried to google this problem to no avail though. I don't remember what this certain type of mod is called by its the mod that inserts a whole different item into the game like the Black Sacrament armor mod, which is actually my problem. Before this it was FF7's Buster Sword. I don't have any problems with any other mods, its just mods similar to Black Sacrament. I used Nexus Mod Manager so I usually download everything with the Manager so I'm assuming there is nothing wrong with the placing of the files in the Skyrim folder. I always turn on all my ESPs before I start the game, although I'm not sure whether I have to turn it on every time I start Skyrim or just once. In any case, the mods simply just don't appear. I even put in the Dark Brotherhood replacer for Black Sacrament and it doesn't get replaced. One random time I decided to try downloading the files manually and just dumping the entire file, after extracting it, into the Data folder itself and try the game and MIRACULOUSLY it worked! But only once. After I quit the game and started it again it said "some contents of the game have disappeared do you want to continue the load?" I am currently still there, so whenever I load the game I see the message because I don't want to lose my Black Sacrament >_> What am I doing wrong? Before the Black Sacrament I tried FF7's Buster Sword and the same thing happened. I dumped all the files into the Data folder and it works ONCE and it never appears again. I can't smith it, the console codes don't work for it, and even if there is a replacer nothing gets replaced. And normally replacer mods work for me. I know this is quite lengthy and I'm sorry to have to make anyone read all this but I spent countless hours trying to find a solution when I have zero experience in this field. I didn't even play Oblivion or any of the TES' before Skyrim. Thank you. Edited January 25, 2012 by ElieLikeSnow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GomuGomu64 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Humm...Try looking in data files to see if the esp is unticked. Try enabling "Load loose data files". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazage Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 You know how when you start up Skyrim you have that thing called Data Files? That thing is blacked out all the time for me, I don't know why, but it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElieLikeSnow Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) You know how when you start up Skyrim you have that thing called Data Files? That thing is blacked out all the time for me, I don't know why, but it is. It is for me as well. That is why I can only deal with this through NMM or the folders itself but since I download through Manager all of the files are placed in the proper folders already (or so I assume). Humm...Try looking in data files to see if the esp is unticked. Try enabling "Load loose data files".It is always ticked on NMM and the esp files are in the order they should be in. I just don't know why it is not appearing in the game. It randomly appears once and all I did was dump the entire folder into the Data folder. Then after that it never shows up ever again.
