joshkes Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 (edited) I am following the STEP guide as it is posted on 6/8/2020. At "Audiovisual - Models & Textures > Vivid Landscapes - Tundra Moss Revised (SE)" the STEP guide says to install the main, yellow 1024 file, and, the SMIM compatibility patch. The SMIM compatibility patch contains multiple data files. Which one do we use?I've actually tried clicking OK on several folders in that mod and all give the warning that the "Mod was probably not set up right", so, I guess I don't just need to know which one to use, but, how in the heck do I even install this at all as everything seems to say "not set up right" when I choose it. #Edit - Literally clicking every file or folder in the downloaded mod gives the warning that there is no data in the top level or something like that. It doesn't seem possible to install the SMIM compatibility patch mod at all. Edited June 8, 2020 by joshkes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshkes Posted June 8, 2020 Author Share Posted June 8, 2020 It may have been posted on May 3rd. I don't know. I was giving the date that I was following it, in case it changes after that date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechAngel85 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 This is like mod manager 101... Right-click the "Data" folder and select "set as data". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alphaniner Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 To be fair, the guide doesn't list MO2 experience as a prerequisite. And IIRC this situation only came up once before very early on. OK, maybe in the tutorial too... Also, which Data folder? I went with high poly, but the guide is otherwise pretty precise. I kind of figured the fact this wasn't addressed was an oversight.

As for the MO experience, I'd think it would be common sense that you need to know how to use the manager you're using for managing your mods, but maybe that's just me...?Here's the MO Guide: https://wiki.step-project.com/Guide:Mod_Organizer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
