MyNameBeJeff Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 One one of my mods go apeshit my game just goes haywire and delete/remove the textures and sounds of weapons replacing it with the annoying red diamond with that exclamation point on the middle. Is there a mod that removes/makes it so that won't happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Reinstall the mod whose textures are missing or figure out why the textures are missing and correct it. Or just don't use the mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubiousintent Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 The "red diamond" is indicating the game cannot find the mesh for that object. Because "Texture/Mesh" replacement mods replace vanilla versions of those files, you absolutely have to toggle "ArchiveInvalidation (AI)" off-and-then-on again after installing or removing one of them so it recognizes that there are loose files (added by the mod) which have to be used in place of the vanilla files in the BSA files or are no longer there and the BSA files should be used instead. That failure to toggle is the most common reason behind most "texture problems". This is usually evidenced by red "!" icon for missing meshes, and solid colors for missing textures, or "messed up" textures. This "ArchiveInvalidation" mechanism is incorporated in all the currently used mod managers, so there is no need to (and problems arise if you do) install older mods to provide that capability. ONLY USE ONE METHOD of AI, especially if you have multiple mod managers installed. Otherwise they will conflict, as they use their own "arbitrarily chosen" names for the AI BSA files. (There is not a standardized name used among them all.) Please see the 'ArchiveInvalidation (by Manager)' section of the "FNV General Mod Use Advice" article, and also see the 'Checklist Item #15 & 16' entries in the wiki "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide.For further, please see the 'Solutions to Graphics problems' and 'Solutions to Mesh (Red "!" icon) or Texture (solid color) problems' sections of the wiki "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" article.-Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
