New Vegas: ESP File Problems :(

[davidgarypepper]

Hey Everyone,

 

I have my Macbook Pro 17 with Bootcamp on Windows 7.

 

However, When I create something in the G.E.C.K. and enable it in the Data Files of the Launcher, any changes I have made aren't shown in the game :(.

 

The first time I tried they weren't showing up in the /data/ folder at all so I opened the G.E.C.K. as administrator.

 

I can't think what this could be but I have a slight feeling that as it's on Boot Camp, the permissions are wrong?

 

Has anyone else has this problem? Tried Googling it but can't find it anywhere.

 

Thank you :).

Pepper.

Have you tried installing outside of UAC ie not in program files x86 . Even Technet copies of win 7 dont like games inside x86 directory just create a folder labled "games" or "Steam" in the root of either C drive or better still on a secondary HD .

 

( keep that STEAMing piece of excrement away from program files too , its nothing but aggro )

 

because it sounds to me that UAC is doing its job and preventing unauthorised users from editing and saving the contents of x86 which is where critical windows files reside .

I'm also a mac guy using a bootcamp version of vista. I had to disable UAC to mod my game. Do as stated above just reinstall outside of the default directory or, turn off UAC.

Hey guys,

 

 

Thanks but installed it to /desktop/games/ and it didn't work :(.

 

Thanks,

Pepper.

Try turning off UAC I don't have win 7 but, I think UAC works the same as vista. I had to disable UAC to mod my game.
