Sorry if I should be posting this in some larger thread, I just don't know exactly where to put it. Anyway, I've got a working FCOM installation going, and everything seems to be working fine, but I can't seem to find any of the weapons added by RealSwords. This is actually about my fourth install of FCOM, and I had to reinstall due to some install mistakes each time. Still, in each one, I was able to play through most of the opening dungeon, and each time, the goblins would have their RealSwords weapons. Then I reinstalled a couple of days ago, and everything works fairly smoothely, but there are none of the RealSwords weapons to be found anywhere. I'm using COBL, Bob's Armory, and Loth's Blunt weapons, but other than that it's just a base FCOM installation. FCOM_Realswords.esp is checked, and the lists are merged correctly in Wrye Bash. My main question is whether I should just keep playing and they'll show up, or whether I should post some more detailed information, my Wrye Bash load order, etc. Thanks for any help.
Hi FS,
Corepc mentioned that load order priority could impact the in-game availability of FCOM RS items,
but that was related to Armamentarium so not sure if relevant in your case.
Anyway, ""..if you are using FCOMRealSwords then it needs to load after LL4OOO and LLMagic.esp..
you just need to move LL4OOO and LLMagic.esp as needed..and not fcom_realswords.."
Hope this helps, cheers
Thanks for pointing that out. I've missed that and have FCOMRealSwords loading before the Armamentarium ones. I'll change that.
Anyway, even so I do get RealSwords but they are rather uncommon generally (which I like) and on lower levels I basically only found them on Goblins now and then. I'd guess it is OK. You can check the Bashed Patch readout for RealSwords - it should turn up in a several leveledlists.
EDIT: Also, the FCOM thread linked to by leonardo2 above is the best place for FCOM related questions.
