This is a great mod, but it's causing some very funny problems with my installation. I have read and carried out instructions meticulously in the FAQ and installation instructions, but wyre bash is going crazy all of a sudden. I have never encountered anything like this before with any other mod so I thought I would register here to try to get to the bottom of it. If I remove the SW omod and rebuild my patch it goes back to normal.
Ok, so I installed both the OMOD's and when it got to the part were it says that it will order the esp files, I let that run (it only takes a couple of seconds opposed to the 4 minutes it states but all the files seem to be in their correct places in Wyre bash. i have a fairly high end system so I didn't think anything of it.
I guess a question that arises is, if this utility does this for you why the instruction to run Boss? (which I did anyway, also have tried a clean install without running it.)
Anyway, so I did the steps below.
1. Install Sensual Walks Animations Installer using OBMM
2. Install Sensual Walks for Female NPCs using OBMM
3. Run BOSS
4. Build your bashed patch using Wrye Bash (WB)
When I fire up the game, some of my previously bashed mods are no longer active, in particular the COBL race balancing and (DARKUI Trollf atmospheric loadscreens). When I get in a receive a message that it is reverting my character back to default race stats!
Looking into this....
1. Wrye still reports that it is merged.
2. Even though I tried to merge all SW esp's (listed as mergable) they still show as blank.
3. Don't see any Blue SW esm anywhere, let alone after doing a "mark merge"
4. However the SW part seems to work perfectly.
5. Throughly checked the merged patch settings and everything should be enabled.
The only way for me to restore, is to remove SW, rebuild my bashed patch, then reinstall SW over the top and run boss, without bashing it. (leaving SW files ticked.) If at any point after this I rebuild patch the COBL starts again.
Help!?, any idea's? This definitely only occurs if I install SW.
thanks.
