1 purple texture

Submitted by Jeffro13 on

Hi guys. Currently enjoying Morroblivion the 2nd time around, but I have 1 purple texture I can't fix. It's the animated steam coming out of the vents in the Molag Amur region.

I'm using Eloth's Visual Overhaul 1.0 (the full unpack version) and have tried reinstalling, but to no avail.

 

Can anybody help? Can anyone provide me with just the file for this fix (and the correct location, obviously)?

 

Thanks in advance

After a bit of digging in the CS, I believe I'm missing fxmist01.nif.

 

Not sure why, but does anyone know where I can find it?

Even in morrowind you can't escape Prince's "purple mist" :D

Do you run any other mods with morroblivion that could be causing a conflict? If not, I'd manually check for the missing file in the original as well as eloth's package and see if both/either of them have it in the right directory.

Actually, the more I think about it, I'm not sure if that is the file - I'm a CS noob to be honest.

I did try checking for the NIF, but then I realised it may be in a BSA somewhere and then I'd need to unpack and, well I decided I could overlook it until such time as someone who actually knows what they're doing can advise me... I guess I'll just consider it, a um, Sign O The Times (shoehorned in (Daedric) Prince pun)

It is odd that it's literally only the steam from the vents - I would have thought a borked installation would mean I'd be missing other stuff too...

BSA Commander,, Extract Morroblivion Textures in to Another Directory and check for the Missing File, if file is in there REMOVE  ( Eloths Visual ) there has been a lot of changes since Eloths files were Released , Check in CS to See why it not in your Game..

For your information because I ran into the same issue with Eloth Visual Overhaul 1.0:

These files reference missing textures for the smoke coming out of the lava vents:
meshes\morro\x\terrainUlavaUvent.nif
meshes\morro\x\terrainUlavaUventLG.nif

These files reference missing textures for the mummies inside the Cavern of the Incarnate:
meshes\morro\i\InUCIUmummyU01.nif
meshes\morro\i\InUCIUmummyU02.nif
meshes\morro\i\InUCIUmummyU03.nif
meshes\morro\i\InUCIUmummyU04.nif
meshes\morro\i\InUCIUmummyU05.nif
meshes\morro\i\InUCIUmummyU06.nif

Simply removing these files makes the game use the original meshes and textures from the Morroblivion BSAs. There may be more missing textures in Eloth's Overhaul but I have just recently installed the package because someone mistakenly claimed that they were already part of Morroblivion 0.64 which I found out is not the case.
