Thanks I'm glad you understand it, some people are just stupid. They can't just drag and drop patch_mp.ff and instantly mod Oblivion so they don't get it. Retards these days

Seriously? Why are you being such an asshole about it? Obviously, I didn't see the part of the guide that explained that (how could I? There isn't one.) Your guide sucks unless the person reading is an expert. How are we supposed to know that your mod's texture and mesh files were in a folder called "Data" if the only hint was a picture of the BSA CMD "Pack" dialogue box? You didn't post a step that said, "Now, where it says 'Source Dir', browse to the folder where you put your mod's textures/meshes and THEN click pack." How the **** can you expect everyone who stumbles upon this thread to know EXACTLY how to use the program?

Instead of bitching at someone who doesn't spend all of their time on the internet, at home, in their dark room and calling them stupid, you can actually help them like beast skills did. Jackass.



Thank you. Is there any way to do this with mods that contain "music" and "sounds" folders, as well as "textures" and "meshes" folders?

I'm not bitching, in fact I really don't give a ****. Mod it or don't, this isn't that hard of a guide to follow. Like I said you have brain damage. You can find the meshes, textures, ect. By LOOKING THROUGH THE MOD YOU DOWNLOADED. Crazy I know. Looking does help, and btw if you can't use that program. Please go find some help, because you need it. You clearly just can't put two and two together. I said look for the meshes, textures, ect. Run the program, then click pack. Like I said PUT TWO AND TWO TOGETHER! IT didn't registrar in your brain that maybe I was talking about the files I JUST TOLD YOU TO FIND!!!!!!! And you can open the program, select the files AND CLICK PACK???? Congrats you passed basic computing skills on how to use a program, tomorrow we'll learn shapes.

Gee! Learning is fun! Maybe I can be the teacher next? I'll teach you how to turn off the computer, put shoes on, and how to protect your eyes when you step outside for the first time! I am excited!

So while you are sitting in the dark in front of your computer playing World of Warcraft and Runescape, I will be riding MY bike to the gym. Can't wait to see you again!

Okay bro, you know it IS possible to be good with computers and modding AND have a girl friend? Because I do. Your a 12 year old who can't follow a simple guide and your just mad because I made valid points in my last message. And why the hell would you need to protect your eyes when you go outside? Your a retard. I'm done talking to you.

lol wow why are u guy arguing over this

The only valid point you made in your last post is that you know what sarcasm is. Atleast that shows that you have learned some sort of social skills from the Internet. And having a girlfriend on Runescape or whatever doesn't count. Sorry. Oh, and about your eyes, I guess you will figure out what I mean when you emerge from your cave for the first time. Good luck! One last thing. It is very arrogant of you to call me 'retarded'. I want you to figure out why.



Because, this guy is a douche. Although I guess that's what happens when you have absolutely no contact with the outside world. He thinks that because I don't know exactly how to use a program used in the tutorial, that I have brain damage. However, what it ACTUALLY means is that I don't live in my room. Just read the previous posts.

oo i get it now

Please list some valid reasons on why I have no life, because that seems to be your only defense. Because I wrote this guide? Sorry I have an interest in this stuff and figured this out. Sorry your dumb ass couldn't figure it out even with a guide, which is pretty pathetic btw. And I wouldn't swear on here or your Mom will ground you. So go play Club Penguin you pathetic little virgin.
