Texture load error, multiple mods installed.

Post » Wed Oct 12, 2011 3:50 pm

Several months ago I downloaded the controversial "Morrowind 2011" mod compilation pack. I installed it and got it running, but never actually played it beyond creating a character, until this week. I wanted another romp through my favorite Elder Scrolls game before Skyrim comes out. Anyway, everything was going great until I ran into some errors outside of Gnaar Mok last night. Here's the contents of my Warnings.txt:

TES3Stream Warning: Model "Meshes\w\W_dagger_glass.nif" tex not found "_ref_09.dds"!TES3Stream Warning: Model "Meshes\w\W_dagger_glass.nif" tex not found "_dagger_glassA.dds"!TES3Stream Warning: Model "Meshes\w\W_dagger_glass.nif" tex not found "vfx_GR1.tga"!TES3Stream Warning: Model "Meshes\w\W_dagger_glass.nif" tex not found "_crystal_bladeNM4.dds"!TES3Stream Warning: Model "Meshes\w\W_dagger_glass.nif" tex not found "_dagger_glassNM.dds"!TES3Stream Warning: Model "Meshes\w\W_dagger_glass.nif" tex not found "_glass_emeraldA.dds"!TES3Stream Warning: Model "Meshes\w\W_dagger_glass.nif" tex not found "_knife_glass_01NM.dds"!TES3Stream Warning: Model "Meshes\w\W_dagger_glass.nif" tex not found "_dagger_glassNM2.dds"!Texture Load Error!: _ref_09.ddsTexture Load Error!: _dagger_glassA.ddsTexture Load Error!: vfx_GR1.tgaTexture Load Error!: _crystal_bladeNM4.ddsTexture Load Error!: _dagger_glassNM.ddsTexture Load Error!: _glass_emeraldA.ddsTexture Load Error!: _knife_glass_01NM.ddsTexture Load Error!: _dagger_glassNM2.ddsTexture Load Error!: _knife_glass_01NM.ddsTexture Load Error!: _knife_glass_01NM.ddsTexture Load Error!: _knife_glass_01NM.ddsTexture Load Error!: _knife_glass_01NM.ddsTexture Load Error!: _knife_glass_01NM.ddsTexture Load Error!: _knife_glass_01NM.ddsTexture Load Error!: _knife_glass_01NM.dds


I always played vanilla Morrowind before this, so I'm completely new to mods. I just don't even know where to begin with regard to troubleshooting this. The files are actually there though, and a Google search of the errors turned up nothing. Suggestions?

it seems to me that the NIF's (Meshes) may have a long texture path in that it's "c:\program files\bethesda softworks\morrowind\data files\textures\_knife_glass_01NM.dds" and it should be "textures\_knife_glass_01NM.dds" if you can figure out which NIF's that use them you can open them up with NIFSkope and edit them manually or you can set NIF files to open with http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Utilities.Detail&id=73 and open all the nifs at once and it will trim the texture path to the texture folder.

Thanks. I tried the NIF Texture Stripper, but sadly it did not work. :( Any other suggestions?

Sadly, no. Not sure if/how I could even find out, as I said I am new to the whole modding thing. Because the mods were all contained within a pack, I have no way of knowing which one is the culprit. Right now I'm thinking about uninstalling the whole thing and reinstalling all the mods from the official sources, in the hopes that it will eliminate the problem.
