My dad said if i F****** up my computer with mods (Virus, Credit card stealer, add things) I have to pay for it:O and if they steal his credit card number I am screwed. Has a mod ever ruined your computer?

And make sure you're downloading your mods from a secure, trusted source.

I wouldn't recommend programs like Limewire or Ares, use a trusted source like tesnexus.

You mean executable programs? Why? Does it mean it's a virus? Has it every happened to you?

Sorry A lot of Questions.

No, its just that .exe files are generally quite unsecure and are commonly infected with stuff you don't want on your computer, so for mods its best to stay away from them. Better safe than sorry...

Wow. I just had to do a double take there... if it weren't for the Santa hat, I could have sworn you were talking to yourself!

.exe files are actual executable programs; run one and lord knows what it'll do. Most .exes are fine, and you use them constantly (e.g. Oblivion.exe, which you use to run the game itself), but if you're trying to get a mod and the mod gives you an .exe, that should set off a warning light. Mods should come either as a .esm (usually zipped) or as, ummmm, something esle. I forget what the omod extension is. If you do get an exe, it might just be a self installer, but don't run it until you make sure: maybe check the mod's page and make sure lots of commenters say it's fine and there are no problems with viruses or spyware. Even then, I'd skip it unless it's from a very reputable source, like tesnexus, and you're willing to take some risks- if the modder couldn't give you the files like a sensible human being, his mod probably isn't worth using.

I could be wrong but I believe it's .omod.

guardian0893 · Post by **guardian0893** » Wed Dec 26, 2007 12:33 am

i did a conflict report and it says that OOO conflicts with everything on KNIGHTS!!!!the expansion

guardian0893 · Post by **guardian0893** » Wed Dec 26, 2007 2:52 am

Some one please respond!

Sigurd · Post by **Sigurd** » Wed Dec 26, 2007 3:54 am

Alrighty then, i'm totally clueless when it comes to this stuff but I would suggest un-installing ALL mods and then re-install them, and see which ones are conflicting. But I really don't even know what i'm talking about, so wait and maybe jeff or another PC user can help.

lowbart · Post by **lowbart** » Wed Dec 26, 2007 4:59 am

First of all, make a complete list of ALL the mods you want to use. Then I or someone else can give you a quick explanation of which mods are probably best to install in a certain way, and which ones are just incompatible.

Deadly Reflexes, I know that you have to have the latest patch, and it has to load after everything else. Even the other things that say they have to load everything else. DR is pretty finicky, I think.

guardian0893 · Post by **guardian0893** » Wed Dec 26, 2007 5:06 am

I got almost all the mods worked out besides my potions are a big fat

so i have no idea what to do...
And all the mods i have listed except extra dual wielding are what i am using

Jeff · Post by **Jeff** » Wed Dec 26, 2007 1:34 pm

I do not use any of those mods, so do not know any of the tweeqs to get them to work.

From your conflict report, it sounds like you have to choose between KotN, or OOO.

I would suggest waiting until Doros or Lowbart, who have used OOO before, and might have some suggestions.
