0 rootsrat Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 You need to specify the Mod Installation directory and the Mod directory in the settings. You drop 7z archives into the specified Mod Installation directory and then install it via MO (mods are installed into the specified Mod dir).

0 redfenix117 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 is that the greyed out lines that you have to tick "advanced" to get access to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 rootsrat Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Not sure to be honest - I'm at work now and I cannot recall exactly... Post a screenshot, I'll probably be able to tell from there :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Gyro Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 ModOrganizer didn't seem to recognize when I dragged and dropped all the stuff from the NCC folder in, but did when I extracted the archive directly into its folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please be more specific when requesting support - it really helps to provide as much info as possible. And apologies - I should have really asked before - what is NCC? What is "all the stuff" (what files, what format etc.), dragged and drop where exactly in MO directory, extracted where exactly in MO folder?

I fixed this problem by extracting the NCC archive directly into the ModOrganizer folder. Maybe I/the OP missed a file when we dragged the contents over or maybe there is other hilarity going on. In short, I fixed my problem by RTFM.

0 rootsrat Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Ah ok, sorry I forgot what NCC was :) Yeah, it works perfetly fine for me too, however I cannot recall how I installed it. In this case, please disregard my reply (quote below) from the 2nd post in this thread, I was under the impression that you are trying to install a mod, not NCC. You need to specify the Mod Installation directory and the Mod directory in the settings. You drop 7z archives into the specified Mod Installation directory and then install it via MO (mods are installed into the specified Mod dir). Aplogies for this slight confusion.

0 redfenix117 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 OK so i extracted like you said and it finally picked it up. I was hoping this would help with the fact that when I installed the Static Mesh Improvement Mod (SMIM) it loaded all the meshes except the exterior ropes around the wood beams. they have the better textures but are still a crappy 2d. any suggestions?

0 schrecksekunde Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 thx gyro, was looking for a solution to get rid of that damn ncc error for 5h by now yeah, you just need to DIRECTLY extract the ncc zip into the mod organizer folder, unpacking it before putting it in will get you the error msg that it isnt installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
