Couple of Questions (May be updated with more)

[monkeycid]

Hi everyone!

 

After a relatively successful install of STEP Core and Extended, I thought I'd give Revisited a shot and see how my luck fares. Just have some confusion with parts of the guide.

 

Here it is suggest to remove the Tamriel.Objects.DDS file but doesn't mention what to do with the Tamriel.Objects_n.DDS that is the same directory.

And here it suggests to make a copy of a file before renaming. Am I unsure whether the original is to be kept or deleted after the copy has been created and renamed?

 

Thanks!

I'd remove the n.DDS file; it's no use to you without the file you originally deleted.

[Neovalen]

I left the _n personally. :)

Another question!

 

Here it links to a file that contains two mods, Animated Dwemer Lift Load Doors and a Dawnguard version or update but doesn't mention to install the latter. Should I?

[Neovalen]

You want to install both 7z contained in that archive, both without the fomod folder.

Neovalen if that is your upload,

Can you unachive the one inside the root of the first archive.

so that people just need to bring up the manual install and select one then istall, followed by checking the other and installing rather than having to unarchive the two and then install each separately.

 

You can probably even get by, by merging the two unarchived folders. So that people only need to install once.

 

They should have dragonborn when using your guide

That is Brumbeks link he put on the original mod comment section, not mine.

[monkeycid]

Thanks for the replies, Neovalen. Just one more question, though!

 

Here you recommend the JaySuS Swords version but without the JSwords* files but the downloaded file only contains JSwords files so I am confused what to do with this mod.

[hishutup]

Jaysus swords plugin is included in ccor but the resources are not. That's why the mod still needs to be installed even though the plugins are not going to be used

I am just confused because the file only contains plugins but the instructions say not to install them so I would be installing nothing from the downloaded file. Unless I am missing something.

[hishutup]

umm

the JaySus Swords mod contains a number of things

 Meshes

 Textures

 Plugins

 

The plugins are NOT needed because Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade includes an option to use JaySuS swords because the plugin IS included with it

 

The only thing that Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade does not include is the meshes and the textures for the swords.

 

So thats why you still need to download the mod.

[monkeycid]

Maybe the instructions are wrong then. The mod links to Sharlikrans Compatibility Patches V14 (JaySuS Swords) but underneath says not to install the JSwords files though they are all that is included in the file. It doesn't mention downloading the original JaySus Swords mod.

Special Installation: Do not install the following file(s) and/or folder(s):

• JSwords* (Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade removes the need for these plugin files.)

 

It only says delete the plugin files

 

CCOR still needs the mesh and textures folder

 

 

EDIT: Here is a quote from the CCOR mod page

 

 

INSTALLATION: First, install "JaySuS_Swords_v14" from Sharlikrans Compatibility Patches. Then make sure you DISABLE any .esp and .esm files that come with the main mod, including the distribution plugin. In CCO's mod menu, enable Jaysus Swords.

Guys,

 

JaySuS Swords in Sharlikrans compatibility patches got updated yesterday or the day before. There is a sticky notice in "Posts" forum by Sharlikran:

 

"The only exception is that JaySus Swords compatibility patch is now plugins only and requires the original mod to be installed. This is more in line with JaySus perms. Sorry if the change is an inconvenience to anyone. If you need loose files just use a BSA unpacker like BSAOpt."

 

Which actually means that in order to get the necessary assets, the original mod has to be downloaded and its bsa extracted.

 

I suppose that instructions in SR:LE guide need to be amended.

 

Thanks! 

[hishutup]

Ok, I fixed it.

Heres the new instructions

 

Thanks for the info @Astakos, I was completely unaware.
