Textures not appearing in game

[mdh2]

Hello, 

 

I have been following the SK:LE guide (amazing btw) and everything has been going smoothly. I have installed most of the texture packs and most mods. The problem is that the new textures simply are not appearing in game. I am only seeing old low textures. Interesting enough the normal mods (SkyUI, HUD ect) work great. The texture packs just do not seem to be loading. Interestingly enough the last time I attempted to follow the same guide the textures worked fine. I double checked everything I know to check and have scoured the internet to no avail. I just do not understand.I am sure I am making some dumb noob mistake but cant find out what it is. I have included a screen shot in case I have done something obvious. 

 

Thank you for your time and any assistance you can offer,

Those look like SRO... you need  ENBoost/ENB to fix the parallax issues that are happening in the first image.

The low res you are seeing is likely related to anisotropic filtering not being enabled due to the lack of ENBoost/ENB

[hishutup]

in the profiles dialogue box do you have Automatic Archive Invalidation checked?

[mdh2]

Thanks for your fast reply. 

 

It was not checked.

I Checked the box and ran the game again to see what would happen (restarted MO too) 

Unfortunately the textures still were old. 

 

Thanks 

[hishutup]

hmm, I dont really know what the issue is.

 

you are launching SKSE through mo correct?

Are the other mods loading correctly?

[mdh2]

Yes--I am and everything seems to load great just for some reason the higher resolution textures are not loading

I must have configured something weird because I have used MO before using the same guide and the textures loaded just fine.

 

I am considering a re install--is there anyway I can save all of the work i did? ie: copy and paste mod folders into new install?  

 

Thanks,  

[hishutup]

I dont think there is a need to reinstall.

The only thing that would cause loose files not to load is archive invalidation. Can you double check it, to make sure that it is still checked.

 

hmm, can you post your inis from MOs ini editor.

can you also double check the archives tab in MO. Check any that you can check.

There is no archive invalidation with Skyrim.

[hishutup]

really... huh, then I have no clue.

[GrantSP]

In the left-pane, are the mods that contain the correct textures in the correct priority? ie. higher number or lower in the pane is greater.

With MO as well as ordering the plugins, by LOOT or whichever method you choose, you also have to prioritise the mods that contain the assets.

[hishutup]

The pic that he posted looks like the correct order for SRLE

I believe that the mods are in the correct order in the left pain--I followed the instructions carefully. Also, The last time i did this in the same order it worked TOTALLY fine--the textures where what they were supposed to be. The game seems to run just fine with all mods acting as they should--just without all the high res textures i installed. 

 

Thanks for all the help, 

 

 

[GrantSP]

Ok, so you have this setup in two versions, did the pre ETaC version work properly?

[hishutup]

can you take an ingame screenshot that has the vanilla or low res textures that you are talking about.

[mdh2]

of course-- they are too big for the site but i will post links.

I  have not installed the Better NPCs yet I was simply checking what i had so far and noticed it look much less "good" than it did last time (2 days ago)

Thanks,

 

 

As per the second version i just made a copy to see if it would run any different--needless to say it did not have better textures either

[mdh2]

And that is it!

 

Thanks Much!

 

I may switch to the vanilla from the vivid too--that might make me happier with the appearance
