BSa file questions

Post » Wed Mar 30, 2011 3:39 am

I am playing with several mods and so far, I have not had a problem, but should I start listing the BSA files in Oblivion.ini? I mainly ask because I see that Francesco's FraNewItens,bsa is listed there. I'm also hunting down a missing texture issue at the moment.

Never register a BSA in the INI if you can help it. There's a 256 character limit to the entries there, so always use the ESP method if you can.

You only need to register an BSA file in the ini file if the name is different than the ESP file that uses it. Hence why Frans has to be registered. They'll work just fine as long as the ESP and the BSA files have the same name.
