HarvesterFox Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Plz help. I am wotking on some basic modding with the CS and want to switch some of the game's NIFs around (like if I wanted to make a chest that looked like a welkynd cluster or a sigil stone that looks like a soul gem). But when I search through my data folder I cant find a single vanilla NIF, only ones for mods that I downloaded. It's like they're somehow hidden. Is this because i am using a steam-based game and is there anywhere I can find a collection of standard NIFs to download. Please help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker879 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 You'll need to extract those assets from the vanilla game BSA files ... specifically Oblivion - Meshes.bsa and/or Oblivion - Misc.bsa found in your game's Data folder. I use Oblivion Mod Manager myself, and always extract to a folder outside of the game folders. Others will swear by BSA Commander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarvesterFox Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 OK, I found the .bsa files. How do I extract them using OBMM?Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarvesterFox Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Nvm. I only had NMM. I just downloaded OBMM and was able to extract to a special folder. Thank you so much! This is a big help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
