D3M0N_WiiNG Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I bought fallout 3 from steam about 2 months ago, and i haven't really played it a whole lot until recently. coming from oblivion, i thrive on mods, and i decided to get the two most important mods (to me) which are the terrain pack and hair. problem is, when i play the game the terrain is not changed at all, and although i do get the hair, most of it doesn't even go on the head correctly (like the top of the head goes through the top of the hair. So i was wondering if it was something i'm doing wrong, or the fact that i bought it off steam.Any and all help appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D3M0N_WiiNG Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 naw dude, i have the archiveinvalidation txt file in my fallout 3 folder, and they still don't work. i do have that archive invalidation invalidated, however, i have no clue how to use it. i mean, this is all they tell me;This little program will allow you to totally eliminate the need of ArchiveInvalidation.txt! But how does it work? It works by adding a dummy texture BSA to the start of the BSA load list, this stops Fallout 3's ArchiveInvalidation from running on its main texture BSA allowing any texture replacements you have to work automatically without the need to do anything ever again.tips and pointers plz&thx?

I think FOMM have the same functionality and is all you need. The problem with the txt file is some mods can overwrite it instead appending/merging the files from vanilla to be invalidated. yet more, there is a line on fallout.ini that specifies if older files must be invalidated: bInvalidateOlderFiles= Yet my advise is avoiding the archiveInvalidation.txt at all.

esrafael Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 For ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated, download the program version,extract it, run it and click activate. That's all that's needed. It does the rest for you.FOMM can be found on his website:http://timeslip.chorrol.com/fomm.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
