0 Scythiss Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 So when reverting back to the Old OOO that weird googly eye problem goes away. Seeing as the new OOO doesn't fix much I think I will just use the previous version to get rid of my googly eye problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ShadowFyre Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Hey, I need some help. I'm on the "Conflicting Textures" part of the updated Mythic Dawn Guide, and I noticed something. Here's the exact quote from the guide: Quarl's Texture Pack III for NMM Unpack the archive to a project and delete the old archive Do not install the following file(s) and/or folder(s): meshes\dungeons\fortruins Rename the following file(s) and/or folder(s): meshes\dungeons\caves\exterior\ centrancemtnsnowlg02.nif -> meshes\dungeons\caves\exterior\centrancemtnsnowlg02.nif Note: I found that copy/pasting the file works best I'm assuming by "do not install" he means delete the folder, but the real problem I'm having is with the second part. They're exactly the same, I'm wondering if this is a typo or not, please tell me what i do rename it to if it is a typo. And thank you so ******* much for updating this guide!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thank you so ******* much for updating this guide!!! :DYou'll see that there's a space at the start of the centrance filename, which needs to be removed. Windows doesn't just let you remove the space. Instead you need to give the filename a different name.I've found that a good way is to do it this way: Rename " centrancemtnsnowlg02.nif" to place a character where the space is, to "ccentrancemtnsnowlg02.nif"And then you will be allowed to rename "ccentrancemtnsnowlg02.nif" to "centrancemtnsnowlg02.nif" It is to that last filename to which it needs to be renamed.

0 pmw57 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I was also unable to rename the file but I could copy/paste it into the same dir but maybe cut/paste would work?When renaming. Windows incorrectly considers that the filename with a space and the filename without the space are the same filename, and won't allow you to do that. So instead, you can do it in a two-step process as is detailed in my previous post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 ShadowFyre Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Hey I just want to point out that there is patch for Oblivion Grass Overhaul that came out July 26, 2016. I'm wondering if I should install it or if it will mess up the modding I've done so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Greg Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 When renaming. Windows incorrectly considers that the filename with a space and the filename without the space are the same filename, and won't allow you to do that. So instead, you can do it in a two-step process as is detailed in my previous post.This is because Windows Explorer trims leading and trailing spaces from the name, so it effectively confuses itself into erroneously thinking this is the same file name. It would be understandable if it trims the text entered by the user, but it mistakenly trims the name it gets from the disk as well. Your technique to rename " test" to xtest and then rename xtest to test works well. You can also do it from the command line without the intermediate step: ren " step" step Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ShadowFyre Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Oh, and I'm having the usual "I can see through my body when i pull out my weapons or fists" problem. Can anybody give me the quick fix for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ShadowFyre Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 So I've finished modding up to the point where the guide left off, and it's working beautifully. I'm just going to add Oblivion Character Overhaul v2 and hope it doesn't mess anything up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 lewkas Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) Hi there, I'm having an odd issue - the game runs fine, but the font is an unreadable, bold, blotchy black. Personally have no idea what could be causing it, I've tried disabling/enabling the plugins systematically via Wrye Bash but nothing seems to correct it! Any suggestions? Edit: I should be more specific I suppose: Menu UI is borked. Fields are in the odd font (like the Race select box in creation, weapon/item names etc). Subtitles seem unaffected.

0 hishutup Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 If you used darnified UI, use the DarN fonts.I have an ini tweak in the UI section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 lewkas Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Was just editing to add that I've narrowed it down to Darnified, I'll give reapplying that INI fix a go and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 lewkas Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Still not right - just to make sure, I'm editing my Oblivion.ini in .../Documents/My Games/Oblivion, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 hishutup Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 mhmm, are you using MO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OOO does not like the new version of OR. Crashes from horn cave to ill omen every time, Just a heads up for everyone.

It applies a custom sort to the list. See https://boss-developers.github.io/BOSS%20Readme.html#gui-urm for details on how to use it.
