And My Items Are Where?!

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 8:20 am

So I wanted to make starting off as a new character easier by adding a nifty custom blade and a nice robe for the character in the tutorial, and it's there in the CS, and I remembered to check the specific plugin box for my little creation. I open it up, start a new game, and.. Well.. It's just gone! I saved the game (Tried both Auto Save as well as making a hard save, what I call actually pressing the save button), and still no nice presents for my player. Anybody know what it is I'm to slow to see?

Much appreciated,

Ah! That happened to me. I was told to uninstall the game and reinstall it. The game didn't fully uninstall, and when I reinstalled it, it worked fine. It annoyed me for a while until I made a thread like this on the forums.

Hope I helped

1. Are you using tesmodmanager? If not download and use that.

2. Did you place them in a container? Don't know how this would work but if you put them in a default game container that may have had an effect (although it should have put it in every instance of that container in the game rather than removing it).

3. May seem like a stupid question but are you SURE you A: Placed the items. B: Saved the mod after placing the items C: Checked the box.

If it's none of the above I can't help you sorry =[ But it probably is cus I make mistakes like that all the time. Good luck with getting it to work =]

I didn't put them in any containers, I put the dagger on the table between the two pottery pieces on the table, and the robes on the floor, (after customizing said items), and saved the .esp twice before closing out and opening Oblivion.

And I'll download the mod manager.

Are you running any other mods that modify the tutorial cell that you edited?

Also make sure your game is properly patched to version 1.2.0416, because a pre-1.2 game will just "silently" ignore any plugins created by a 1.2 CS.

No, I just decided to throw this one in for giggles.

I didn't think about that, I'll get on that soon. (It might help if I can FIND my Oblivion disk. -_-.
