Fallout: New Vegas Message Board  

Can't say I've had any problems with mods so far and I haven't even touched the archiveinvalidated file. I'm running about 2 dozen mods. Usually the red exclamation is due to missing meshes/textures, so just make sure you've copied every file in the archives you've downloaded into the correct location.

Also, someone has just ported the FO3 mod manager to New Vegas over at the Fallout New Vegas Nexus. Someone else is working on a full-fledged NV manager, but for now it does the job. It has options for archiveinvalidated.

Good let me know when the one fer NV is done.

I fyou have issues with arcinvalidation.txt file there is a mod in New vegas nexus called archinvalidation invalidated which will take care of all your textures and meshes for you.

unless the mod is just a direct replacement of textures and such. I found out that you still need an archive invalidation text(with the black sheriffs duster replacement).

Try this. It supposedly removed the need for ArchiveInvalidated to be modified by faking an already disabled one.

O.O will give that a try since i manually did the FO3 version of archive invalidation. Thanks

I read that it should be already down unless you went into the *.ini and changed things around. According to reports I read on newvegasnexus.

Installed quite a few mods, like some HD stuff, better meshes, new weapons, addons and stuff all without mod manager and just downloaded the updated version of the Invalidated file from NVN and mine all work fine. :/
