I'm trying to use TNR Cobl Races...the instructions below are:

nstall
=======
1. Extract the files to a temporary location.
2. Examine the folder structure and make corrections where necessary.
3. Copy files to (install folder)\Oblivion\Data\
4. Start Wrye Bash, click on the esp, place a dot ( not a checkmark ) beside the .esp file(s).
5. Rebuild your Bashed Patch.

I am having problems in #4 - I open WB and I cannot place a dot beside the esp files. Only checkmark or blank. Why?

Edit: I see that I'm missing a Cobl.esm file in the masters list. Could this be why? I think this entire TNR mod installed when I installed Cobl and I just added it to the list. How do I get the Cobl.esm in the master list?

Edit 2: Additionally, I cannot put a "dot" beside any mod that I have. What is the meaning of making sure it has a dot instead of a checkmark anyway?

No clues here?

Notes need to be updated, will get those updated for next cobl update..

has step 4 should - be do not activate mod , select it under import faces in bash patch options..step 5 rebuild patch..

then if done right it will have a dot next to it..

Cobl Races TNR Requires Cobl.esm and Cobl Cosmetics to be installed has well once again..

OK two questions:

1. You said Cobl.esm and Cobl Cosmetics need to be installed. I have already installed Cobl and TNR came with it. Should I search my folders for a Cobl.esm file and copy it into the Oblivion Data directory? I'm not sure why Wrye isn't finding the cobl.esm even though TNR was installed packaged with Cobl.

2. About what you said "step 4 should - be do not activate mod , select it under import faces in bash patch options..step 5 rebuild patch.." -- would that be right click on Bashed Patch, go into Import Face, and then pick the TNR mod? I'm not clear on this.

Ok before you Build your bash patch Use http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=20516 there are 2 files that you need to down load the main file and masterlist update. Now after you have installed the main file then install the master list update. Those will be installed into the oblivion data directory. Now after that is all done start Wyre Bash. On the bottom you will find a button for BOSS. click that, it will take a little while to run through your mods it will come up with a TXT with your loaded mods and suggestions, read them carefully, bash tags are handled by selecting the mod and then lower right side where is a small box click on that "right click" and then select according to what boss suggests. Now after you have gone through and set everything up according to boss then work on the BASH file. Right click and then rebuild. I my self go through them one by one and only put a check mark in there if it is something that I want. Reason is there is a lot of edits that can be done to the game such as bone names and armor names and weight of potions, those are only the start but you get the Idea

Oh and Cobl.ESM should be there just look in your data folder I sort it by Type to make finding it easier. Dont forget the Cosmetics either.
. Good luck!
