Files from data are being corrupted.

[Derren]

Hi! 

I am trying to create a follower for myself, but I am having some trouble since the textures that I pull out the the data tab are corrupted. For example, I needed to pull out the mouth textures, but I could not view them in NifSkope or photoshop, but I could preview them just fine in MO. I saved it correctly with .dds and _n.dds but still doesn't work. 


Not sure why this is happening and would like some help, thanks!

What do you mean "pull out of the data tab"?  I suspect you mean the context menu option "Write to file..." which doesn't do what you might assume it does.  If you open one of the files in a text editor, you'll see that it's actually a list of the files in the data tab and which mods they originate from.

 

You'd want to access the files directly in the MO2 mods folder.  You can right-click the mod you're interested in and choose Open in Explorer to go straight there.

also NIF Skope will not just show textures out of nowhere you need to tell it where to find them.
