Hi friends, experiencing a weird issue where I can see the replacement textures in 1st person but when it's holstered by an NPC or dropped it shows as the old texture. Archive Invalidated is working as intended so I'm not sure what the problem is. Any advice is appreciated, thanks.
How would we go about making this compatible with WMK? 10mm Pistol and 10mm SMG work with attachments but Sniper Rifle, Assault Rifle and probably others cause the textures to go crazy
I've been away from FO3 for a few years and forgot how I used to rig up the original mod. I was dling your bsa decompression mod and found this mod under your name. I was like, "OMG!!" It's what I always wanted from the original, so thanks for making it. Plug n play, and no esp file. Whoohoo!!
I also grabbed some of your other works. Great stuff. :)
It might just be me, but the errors I get is the sawed off having messed up textures when held and dropped. The sniper, G3 addon, Combat shotgun addon, SMG, having messed up textures when dropped.
However, enabling the addons itself and nothing else shows the right textures when I drop and equip them, but out in the world they're textures are missing.
I tried only loading the mod and nothing else besides the unofficial patch on a new game but still messy textures. If no one else has this issues I think its on my end then.
First and foremost, thank you for taking the time to upload this. This mod also works correctly with Iron Sights Plus.
I have a request. Unfortunately I cannot use Iron Sights Plus on my save since it didn't have UUF3P, so I am using RH-Iron Sights for now until I start a new game.
This texture mod mostly works okay with it, however there are some messed up textures. The 10mm pistol (silenced and non-silenced) uses the default texture. I was able to fix it by moving some texture files to the correct directory, but I cannot fix the sim versions. The AR also has messed up textures when using it in 1st person and in iron sights, the sim version of the combat shotgun doesn't change to Millenia's retexture, and the normal combat shotgun has a messed up 1st persons and iron sights textures.
If you can upload a fix so that it is fully compatible with RH-Iron sights, or show me which files to move to the correct directories for it to work, thank you.
Okay so the main issue, is that RH_Ironsights changes the "Texture Set" for some weapons in its plugin. The textures that come with the mod are the same in vanilla. The only difference is that it uses the high res first person texture and removes the "1stperson" prefix of file names themselves, making it so that even when dropped the world/third Peerson textures are high res. So, either edit the plugin to match vanilla. or replace the texture file with 1stpersonxxx.dds SF3WRP project files with the removed "1stperson" prefix.
I'm sorry, I did not completely understand. Do you mean I have to go through all the WRP .dds files and remove the "1stperson" prefix for each file? I'm confused because there are already files without the prefix, in the same folders. Are they meant to be replaced by the files I'm renaming?
Yes, remove the prefix and move them and replace the RH_ironsights textures in the 0roguehollow folder. The difference between the ones with the prefix and the ones without, is that the ones WITH the prefix are higher resolution 1k, the ones already WITHOUT the prefix are half the resolution that. Honestly it would just be easier to change the changed file paths of the Texture Set record in RH_ironsight.esm plugin back to vanilla.
Okay, I tried this with the 10mm pistol and the issue with that weapon AND the sim version is resolved. It looks normal.
But then I tried it for the AR. 1) I moved the "AssaultRifle.dds" and "AssaultRifle_n.dds" files from 0roguehallow for the AR to my desktop. 2) Then I took the "1stpersonassaultrifle01.dds" and "1stpersonassaultrifle01_n.dds" files for the AR from WRP, and then renamed to "AssaultRifle.dds" and "AssaultRifle_n.dds" respectively. 3) I then moved those renamed files into the AR directory for the 0roguehallow folder, and ran archive invalidation. 4) Vortex gave me the "Mod Files were changed outside of Vortex" notification and asked if I wanted to save or revert changes. I clicked save.
It looks all garbled and doesn't look like how it does when dropped or held by an NPC. By the way, the texture is also garbled for the Combat Shotgun and the Sawed-off Shotgun. Did I do something wrong?
Also, I am not sure how to change the file path of the texture set record for RH-ironsights. I've never created or edited mods before, but I can give it a try. Do I have to use xEdit or GECK to do that?
By the way, thanks for taking the time out to help me with this, I really appreciate it.
?I'm trying to make a standalone AK47 and use the mesh in your chinese assault rifle replacer, but the ironsight is misallign, even when sightnode is perfectly allign with the sight
my crosshair is actually pointing at that ring on Charon's back but sight is misallign I tried change the translation of weapon mesh but it just make ironsight more weird
Thank you! Indeed after simply uncheck the Don't use 1st ironsight option in GECK problem solved. How can I miss that. BTW would you mind if I upload it on nexus? Though I haven't got reply from Millenia yet, may still need to remove it if he refuse to give permission
If you are like me, who likes their game being consistent do not use this as many (and ireally mean MANY) weapons remain untouched by this! Not to mention that it doesn't even retextures ANY of the energy weapons (though you can probably fix that by getting EVE mod, which does that and something extra...). I don't like it when half of my weapons looks like vanilla crap in comparison to higher res weapons ,added by mods such as these as with the textures inconsisent like this the game looks like a mess, that has no certain style or direction! My philosophy is simple - either installl retexture mod, that retextures EVERY DAMN thing in the game at the same time - or don't install it at all!...
In fairness the textures aren't mine they were made by Millenia who neglected many of the texture in Fallout 3 as she turned modding Fallout New Vegas almost immediately. Heck the G3 assault rifle replacer is from NV even though the G3 assault isn't in NV by default. IF you want a full retexture mod of all weapons, there is this Weapon Enhancement Pack at Fallout 3 Nexus - Mods and community (nexusmods.com). Though I believe that is doesn't quite follow the Fallout arstyle like Millenia achieves, then again it is only my opinion.

Also check with xEdit if any mods change the texture path or replaces that gun's texture.

Then I loaded up my game.
This is how the AR looks when dropped (it looks normal).
But this is how it looks in the 1st person view.

Here are the images for them.
They don’t look garbled. It's only the normal AR, the sawed off shotgun, and the combat shotgun.
the G3/AR was the only with no fixed model since it was never backported to Fo3, I'm first who did it.
my crosshair is actually pointing at that ring on Charon's back but sight is misallign
I tried change the translation of weapon mesh but it just make ironsight more weird
