Mods don't work, no fixes I can find help, Im leaving in two days,

[nadroj713]

Alright. I have vista.

-I currently have the game in C/games and THOUGHT I had updated, but apparently the pop-up window with the bars going from 0 to 100% lie to me. (This is why I think I'm having this problem)

 

-No mods work except omod ones run through the oblivion mod manager, so if I merge the origional data folder with the modded one, nothing happens. (

 

-I have UAC turned off.

 

I know my main problem here is probably having vista, but a friend of mine was able to mod his perfectly in c/programfiles, with vista, without the mod manager, so I'm sure I can too.

Where are you putting the files that you download?

Im dumping them in the mod manager "mods" folder and then merging them with my data folder

I have vista and have a million mods. I find it easier to manualing install the mods by merging the mesh and texture folders by without using the obmm. Just open file loacation ( Ob directory ) and the open the data folder ) dont foprget to activate the mod using the mod manager or the game itself. ( esp )

 

Also put the esp or esm file in the data folder beut no further,
