Hey ppl.

Im having this really wierd problem with the protectrons. Both in geck and in-game.

Although it first appeared on both "modes" at the same time, after i tried to reinstall the game (i even reinstalled it 2x...yes -.-), and the problem seemed to be fixed, it happened again "out of the blue", one moment wasn't there, the next started appearing in-game (not in GECK straight ahead) and then after a couple of more saves in the GECK, it appeared there aswell.

 

The problem seems to be something wrong with the fallout3.esm, since i havent messed with any protectron mesh or texture, and havent installed any new mod recently, also the problem is still present, both in-game and in the GECK even if the fallout3.esm is the only file loaded.

This doesnt seem to be a "normal" missing mesh since in those cases im used to see the "big (!) mark". In this case, the skeleton of the protectron just went missing. To be more precise, 2 of the skeletons went missing, being them, the basic black protectron skeleton (protectronbos.nif) and another one the protectronPC.nif (not sure wich skeleton this correspods to). (they're both marked in pic4)

4.Both meshes that have this problem. Apparently only these 2 were affected (so far) and all the other render both in-game and in the geck.

 

(About picture 2) The error says something about "files have been removed" well im am almost sure i havent messed with any meshes whatsoever (especially after having resintalled the game, and though the problem was fixed) so i have no idea what could have moved or removed these files.

 

(About picture 4) I've seen meshes render like that when i tried to load and save a door mesh in nifskope and save it. I think fallout has problems with reading nif files saved in nifskope for some reason.

But in this case i havent touched any meshes.

 

I tried to fix this by reinstalling the game like i said (this worked...partially) and also by unpacking the mesh from the master file and adding it to archive invalidation (wich didnt do anything).

At first i ruled out any mods as being the cause to this for the reasons i meantioned before but atm i have no idea what's causing this.

I dont know if any1 has seen this before, or have any idea of what might be causing it. Or better yet how to fix it. Cause im running out of ideas here.

 

EDIT: Fixed. Was a mod problem.
