Mod Error Question: Better Bodies : III

» Thu May 12, 2011 5:55 pm

I am having a strange error. I have installed Better Bodies, Better Clothes, More Better Clothes, Better Heads, Better Argonians...as well as other mods, but those are the "better" related ones I have.
Better Bodies is giving me some issues. It's loading Morrowind fine, but when I go to start a new game (I don't have a current save) it throws an error...

Model Load Error - meshes\bb\bb_skinm_de.nif will use default object (some name).

The same thing is happening if I click yes with another skin called im instead of m. So how can I fix this issue?

Thank you again for the feedback.

Edit: Just for the record, I just now visually verified that there are no skins there. Not the ones that it is looking for anyway...they must not have installed. However,
this is the second time I tried installing the mod.

Edit 2: Another thing, is they are in the original archive. I see them located in the zip file. Also, it seems the Wrye Mash is reporting them as installed..it's not marking them as skipped...also I do not see them in the actual data files folder.

This is what I am copying/pasting from Wrye Mash:

Edit 3: I have found them, but they are in sub folders. OK so this is the strange thing..I guess my game is looking for them in the main textures/bb folder, but they are in actuality located within a sub folder (u) it seems.
Why is this happening, also this is a default install. I grabbed the files from the Psycho Dog website, loaded the archive into Wrye Mash, and installed them. Do I need to uninstall, manually re-adjust the location of these textures, and
then rearchive it and re-install? I am not sure if Better Bodies has been packaged wrong this version, or if I have installed it incorrectly or what. I think I followed the install instructions to the letter.

Thanks again for the feedback.

Nevermind. I think I have it. If I have any more issues, I will post here. I had missed a readme file. You have to choose from one of the three versions and move it into the root folder.

It should work now.
