Dawnguard - Missing String Files

[sinnerman69]

I'm no modder just a fan of mods, my modding is limited to editing ini files and using text documents for bat batch's

Bah, Serana sucks as a follower, she has no unique idle dialog that isn't quest related and she doesn't comment on your surroundings. I was hoping for at least an Erandur equivalent of dialog from her :sad:

 

Okay, she has some and its dispersed in atypical areas within her dialog. Probably same amount as Erandur but it's hard to say for certain.

Add the esm or the bsa to the list? Could someone explain to me how to do this? Now the ck is asking me about version support.. Edited August 3, 2012 by blaackstarr

You add Dawnguard.bsa to the skyrimeditor.ini file found in your Syrim root folder (not your Documents one). So it looks like this:

 

SResourceArchiveList2=Skyrim - Shaders.bsa, Update.bsa, Dawnguard.bsa

Ok I'm no modder. I did the fix by adding the Dawnguard.bsa to the skyrimeditor.ini file found in your Skyrim root folder, but my game still crashes every time I try to go into the dawnguard fort. was this fix just so modders can read the files or is it a crash fix for game play.

I don't usually post on forums but i found this a little confusing so i figured I would put this out there for any inexperienced moders like myself.

Here is the breakdown of how to fix the problem:

 

1) in the skyrim folder open the file SkyrimEditor.ini

2) find the line of text that says "sResourceArchiveList2"

3) type ", Dawnguard.bsa"

4) save

 

From what i understand and how it worked for me you have to manually open it up and type the edit in.

 

Cheers!

Thank you! I just found this thread through Bing after I encountered the error following the Dragonborn update!

Well, Actually, I got the same error message, the only thing changed is the line. I post you the complete message :

 

Assert

 

File: C:\_Skyrim\Code\TESV\TES Shared\misc\BGSLocalizedString.cpp

 

Line: 2871

LOCALIZATION: Error opening or reading strings file

 

Somebody could have a solution, please ? :(

Hello everyone I have a problem with the CK can not I open Dawnguard and Hearthfire
I have already added to the string of the ini file (SResourceArchiveList2 = Skyrim - Shaders.bsa, Update.bsa, Dawnguard.bsa, Hearthfire.bsa, Dragonborn.bsa)

and I added under General (bAllowMultipleMasterLoads = 1)

but every time I try dawnguard to load other files I always get the same error:


Assert



File: C: \ _Skyrim \ Code \ TESV \ TES Shared \ misc \ BGSLocalizedString.cpp



Line: 2871

LOCALIZATION: Error opening or reading strings file

 

CK then closes

Could someone help me solve this problem?

I'm having exactly this problem too. I have tried adding the relevent lines to both "SResourceArchiveList" and "SResourceArchiveList2" and it still does not work. The error message seems to indicate it's locing in my C:/ drive but that's not where I have skyrim installed. Is there a way to make it look in the right folder or would that even help?
