Weapon textures problem.

[HeArTBeaT15]

Hi all.
I recently started playing Tale of Two wastelands and there's been a problem that has been bugging me for some time.

That being that some weapon textures look like a compressed car.
Check the pic to see what i mean:

Now i tried archive invalidation if you are asking and have it activated, no effect.

Tried moving my load order around, just in case loot screwed up somewhere.

I am using mod organizer, so i tried enabling and disabling the option "Have MO handle archives".

I'm at my wits end here.

Can anybody help me out with this?
EDIT: i only discovered this problem for the sniper rifle and the chinese assault rifle so far.
Here's my load order:

Your image link is broken. But that's not the real issue.

 

You need to "toggle" "ArchiveInvalidation" off-and-then-on-again whenever you add or remove "loose" texture or mesh files. That's so the game engine knows to use the "loose" files instead of the ones in the BSAs (or vice versa). It's not a one-time thing.

 

In addition I notice you have a number of "optional" plugins where you are supposed to choose only one; especially with WMR. Choose between the "*_s" or "*_r" series plugins, and only use those from the same series. That's most likely the core of your problem.

 

All of the following may not apply to your specific situation, but are worth repeating anyway.

* Be aware that one error may mask a number of other errors, which will not appear until those masking them have been resolved. Building a stable game consists of resolving each problem individually until none remain, and then realizing that every change you make thereafter (including updates to mods already installed) run the risk of introducing new problems. Be prepared to revert to a previous save if you do so.

* Did you install Steam to it's default location? If so, please see the wiki "Installing Games on Windows Vista+" article for why the original default Steam behavior of installing games to the "C:\Program Files" folder tree was bad (they learned better, and don't do that any more); and why "disabling UAC and running as Administrator" is NOT sufficient, with instructions how to move it. This is the single most important thing you can do to fix and protect yourself against problems in the future. As much of a PITA as that is, it's never going to be any easier than now. Please see the 'Restoring to "Vanilla"' section of the wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article as well.

* Are you running Win10? Did you get the "Fall Creator's Update" of 2017 (FCU aka "RedStone 3")? Do you have "New Vegas Stutter Remover" (NVSR) installed? If all three are "true", then please see the 'Issue: Recent (post-Win10 FCU) CTDs after 10-20 minutes of play' (and other "heap size") entries in the 'Solutions to Performance problems' section in the wiki "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide.

These "Creator's Updates" are Microsoft's replacement to the old "new release" and "service pack" improvement and bug-fix mechanism. They are scheduled to occur every six months, so they will be in the "Spring" and "Fall" of each year.

The FCU 2017 update was released in mid-November 2017, so a "brand new" system probably did not come with it installed. However, the default configuration is usually to have OS updates automatically installed. (Those usually start being distributed on the second Tuesday of each month, but may take a week or more to get to everyone.) See the MS "Get the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update" article for how to check your version release and manually pull down the update if necessary. It is important to keep your OS always "up to date" to prevent malware infections.

* If you are suddenly having a "slowdown" or lag; or a lack of sound; or problems getting NVSE to load, or really anything new unexpectedly, please see the 'Issue: NVSE - fails to load after update KB4058043 to Win10 FCU (v1709)' entry in the wiki "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide. This may be due to a Windows Update for the "Meltdown and Spectre Vulnerabilities".

* Are you using the 4GB Patcher? If not, please see the 'Maximizing use of memory' section of the wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article.

* The game has "memory leaks". Getting 2-3 hours before a CTD is pretty good. You might want to try using the tool "Memclean", which periodically (you can set the interval; default is every 15 minutes) tells the OS to perform it's built-in "clean up" of memory. It has a "mini-monitor" that displays memory usage. Doesn't seem to hurt and might help.

* If you are using the full 4GB of memory, most likely your CTD problem (now or in the future) is the default "heap size" is too small. It's so common you might as well deal with it now. Please see the 'Solutions to "Crash To Desktop" (CTD) problems' section in the wiki "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide.

* Move any "inactive" plugins out of the game "Data" folder. They count against the "plugin cap" because they get loaded by the game engine if found, and can cause "Missing Master" problems. Please see the wiki "Missing Masters" article if you get that error message.

* Don't install every optional file for a mod. Read the install instructions carefully. Optional files need to be selected on a "case by case" basis. For example: with any mod you usually only need one ESP (and possibly one ESM) "base" file depending upon whether you have all the DLCs active or not. Only if you don't have them all active do you need to install any specific DLC versions if there is an "Ultimate Edition/All/Merged DLC" version.

* "Compatibility patches" to make one mod work with another need to be placed after (as in "physically lower, higher numbered") in the "load order" than all of the plugins they are designed to make compatible. ESMs should always be placed at the top (lowest numbered) positions in the "load order", followed by the related ESPs though they can be separated from their ESMs by other plugins. "LOOT" does a good job of determining those basic orders. Getting the "load order" incorrect will cause "Missing Master" errors as well.

FYI: The "pre-order packs" (Caravan, Classic, Mercenary, and Tribal; available now in the "Courier's Stash" addon), are not considered "DLCs" by most mods and "compatibility patches". So their absence should not deter you from using "All DLC Merged" plugins. When in doubt, follow the process in the wiki "Missing Masters" article to confirm they are not "master files" for that plugin.

* Don't install compatibility patches for mods you do not have installed/active (e.g. get rid of any "TTW" patches if you aren't running TTW).

* Do not use an "Auto-purge" mod for game play. (That was old advice from before we knew better.) They are designed for debugging by mod creator's only, according to the author of the JIP extensions to NVSE. See the 'Issue: CTD without warning, "Out of Memory error", or stops responding after the Main Menu', "Cause-2", "Solution-3" entry in the wiki "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide for the game settings that do the same job.

* Please see the paragraph about "auto-saves" under the 'Essentials for Getting Started' section of the wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article. If you have been using the built-in "auto-save" feature and you get the endless "roulette wheel" when loading a save game, then your current save game file is corrupted and you will have to either go back to a save before the corruption occurred (hard to tell) or start over.

* If you have more than one mod that makes any change to the same record or set of records in the vanilla game, then you really need to use a "Merge Patch File" with that collection of mods. Please see the 'Third Rule: The Rule of One' and 'Merge Patch File' sections of the wiki "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article.

Thanks for the reply, really appreciated .

Will update on my results, hopefully this will help others in the future :)

[HeArTBeaT15]

Well that didn't work either, so maybe its TTW that screwed up the weapons textures themselfs.

Oh and let me explain since the picture link is broken:
The gun is showing, its showing normally on the ground and in other NPC's hands.

However in my hands its got some sort of black metal garbage texture splattered all over it.

Also since you posted other advice (thanks for that) i dont have windows 10, and i already did some of the other things.

I'm at wits end here :(

[HeArTBeaT15]

here it is after the reskin mod i installed.

same texture error , but u can see the difference in color.

Anytime you make any changes to textures, you must toggle archive invalidation. Otherwise you will have the problem you are describing (no images shown).

[HeArTBeaT15]

i see.. but i did toggle it.

You know what, i'm not even sure anymore, since this is the first time i used mod organizer on FNV.

Care to show an example of archive invalidation done correctly, so i can check please?

Sorry, I don't use Mod Organizer. I chose to stick to the mod manager that was developed for the Fallout games.

[dubiousintent]

Please see 'ArchiveInvalidation (by Manager)' section in the wiki "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide.

'ArchiveInvalidation' is built-in to MO. Don't install some mod that claims to implement it, as that will cause conflicts and problem.
