zoneofdarkness Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Skyrim texture mods don't apply like others. There's no "activation" file, you just have to stick them in the appropriate folders and start Skyrim like normal. If you put them in the right places, they'll already be in the game.

There's no "activation" file, you just have to stick them in the appropriate folders and start Skyrim like normal. If you put them in the right places, they'll already be in the game. This, plus: The first thing I'd recommend trying for your issue regarding replacer resources not working is to open "SkyrimPrefs.ini" located at \My Documents\My Games\Skyrim\ and find the [Launcher] section. look for the following line, and if you do not have it or it says "=0" add it or change it to "=1":bLoadLooseFiles=1I've yet to see this actually fix this particular issue for anyone (and I personally don't have that line and my replacers work perfectly on XP x64) but it's still worth your time to rule out before moving on to my next suggestion. If the aforementioned doesn't work, chances are UAC is causing your issue. Here's my general post on Windows UAC:If you're on Vista/7, Steam (and therefore Skyrim) is installed in the default (C:\Program Files) location, and you're having problems with replacers or simply mods (plugins) not working at all, even though you've activated them in NMM, or mods refusing to deactivate, even though all of their files have been removed, then you most likely have a UAC problem. It is possible to turn off UAC though it's not recommended for the vast majority of Windows users. To get around UAC without turning it completely off you'll need to move Steam to a location UAC does not affect (C:\Games\ is a commonly used location). This will most likely break any 3rd party utilities such as NMM as it will leave old registry keys behind that point to the location you originally installed Skyrim in. If you come across this issue, you'll have to uninstall Skyrim, clean the old registry keys, reboot, then reinstall Skyrim. I personally recommend using Revo Uninstaller as if you uninstall Skyrim through it, it will automatically scan for and ask if you'd like to delete old registry keys. If you're interested in keeping your old mods, config files, and/or saved games, tips found in Bben's Oblivion Reinstall Procedure work for Skyrim as well.
