obssoyo Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Hi I've been setting up the game for my first mod run through fallout 3 and I have been falling the gopher youtube tutorials with the only exception of I wanted standard fallout not wanders mod. However he is using vista and I am using windows 7, not sure what is different for this tutorial wise but I know that I don't have textures but everything but it and the directors chair works so far. Anyone got any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wastelander121 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Turn archive invalidation on? There's a tool for it in NMM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obssoyo Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Turn archive invalidation on? There's a tool for it in NMM Just download it in the nexus mod manager and double click it right? I got that so far, unless I need some other step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wastelander121 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Download nexus mod manager, install it, load it up, wait for it to detect Fallout 3, on NMM's main page go to the hammer and screwdriver icon, click it then it'll come up with reset UI and Archive Invalidation, click Archive Invalidation then when prompted click apply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might be the order for lighting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wastelander121 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 purple means missing texture, try to re-download all of NMC's texture pack - it sounds like a archive issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obssoyo Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) purple means missing texture, try to re-download all of NMC's texture pack - it sounds like a archive issue some is purple, some buildings look wrapped with nuka cola textures, some become black outline, I guess i'll try re-downloading performance first. also I have the ability for high quality streaming if you want to see any of it, feel free to contact my on skype as obssoyo, and find the stream at twitch.tv/obssoyo just an offer if that helps at all :) Edited January 17, 2013 by obssoyo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wastelander121 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 hmm...is it depending on the angle you're looking at the object in and did you download all of the NMC archives for either the Full or Performance pack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
