xMjolnirx Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Alright when I download these freaking mods that I want they all come as OMODs and have the same image as the OBMM. I cannot convert them to a .zip because 7zip and winRAR seem to be unable to touch them. I recently saw something called Omod2zip but upon finding a link I found that it had been taken down. Upon trying to just drag the OMOD into the OBMM mod folder it just sent it to the corrupted folder and wouldn't load them. If you can't tell I'm very aggravated and would love some help. Searching on the internet has led to very unrelated posts and I'm on my last strain of sanity here. So once more, please help. :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrakeTheDragon Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 They're using the same icon as OBMM already? Then chances are good they're assigned to be opened with OBMM by default. If you double-click them, does OBMM come up asking you if you want to add them to your list of OMODs? That's what's happening when I double-click OMODs. They get copied into the OMOD folder automatically, ready to be "activated" (=unpacked and installed). Given you know where your OMOD folder is, and no windows OS with UAC is preventing you from putting the files there directly, you can also simply put the ".omod" into the folder where all your other ".omod"s are, and the next time you start OBMM it will be in the list of OMODs, ready to be "activated". Turning an OMOD into an archive is as simple as right-clicking the OMOD in your list of OMODs (right-hand section in OBMM, a listing of your OMOD folder's contents) and choosing "convert to archive". If I got you right, you tried dragging the OMOD right into OBMM itself, "not" into the folder. While dragging a file from one folder into another in your explorer nothing at all can interfere and move files to different places, so I guess them getting put into the corrupted folder happens when opening them via OBMM, which is what happens when I double-click them. This now would simply mean they are just that, "corrupted". A lot of people seem to get corrupted downloads these days while the Nexus network is so taxed. (Surprisingly mine are always fine.) So if this happened to you, too, and your downloads got corrupted, you now have a bunch of corrupted OMODs no tool will ever be able to open. Doesn't OBMM complain or something, when you try to open these? What happens when you simply double-click them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I double clicked it I got an error message. No more bad downloads though. Thanks. :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
