Kimnokmar Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 Ok so I have been trying to do some modding like I did with Oblivion. As well as down lode mods created by the community, again just like I did in Oblivion. However it seems like no matter what I do I cant get the textures to show! I get the models to show fine, but there covered in strange textures that shift and change as I move around the game world. If anyone knows how to fix this can you pleas let me know, I have some ideas for mods I want to do, but till I can get passed this issue I cant move forward. P.S. I also don't think my game is recognizing any of the custom egm files I have! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khet Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 First, make sure the textures are installed properly (redownload and reinstall textures) Secondly, ensure that bInvalidateOlderFiles=1 is in your Fallout ini (located in Documents/My Games/Fallout 3). The default value is 0. Third, I must be more tired than I thought, what exactly is an Egm file? I've never run across these in either Oblivion or Fallout 3 modding. Fourth, if all else fails you can back up your mods and saved games and reinstall Fallout 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesterv01 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 The shifting textures are plaguing me on a new gun texture I'm trying to use - did the above fix your problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 I too, am getting this problem. I'm sure my bInvalidateOlderFiles is 1, this happened in my last game too (I reinstalled it also) and the problem still exists. So confused right now :wallbash: . Please help us! EDIT: Fixed! I now get textures, As Khet said; my problem was the bInvalidateOlderFiles wasn't modified to 1 in the "MY GAMES" folder. Make sure your editing "FALLOUT".ini in that folder instead of the one in the Program Files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
