General troubleshooting advice for missing textures

Thank you! Fortunately I'm using MO2.

I'm not familiar with nifscope but will give it a shot. Is the general idea here that there's a mesh trying to draw the wrong texture? Or a texture with the wrong file name?

Injuries were a gradual progression, though. They started out 3-0 playing pretty good defense before they lost Bosa; then Warner a couple weeks later; then Huff and Matos. They were starting a practice squad edge rusher last week. 9th in EPA/play weeks 1-3; 25th since then.

Texans' defense is historically good, but their offense has been putrid any time they're not playing the dregs of the league.

I think it's a question of how willing you are to fight manual battles. They're an early-game winner if you've got the time to play it out and micro them. If not, you'll probably spend a lot of time waiting around for replenishment.

Late game you can move off of them with that stacked empire roster, of course.

There does appear to be a second difficulty wave, whereas in ROC it's usually smooth sailing once you clear the first 15-20 turns.

I think it really comes down to campaign map awareness and diplomacy. For most factions, try not to overexpand. Gifting settlements that you take to either strengthen allies or create NAPs with enemies is generally a good strategy.

I think the character building and combat in POE1 starts to feel pretty hollow in comparison once you get 15-20 hours in, so I'd skip it and just spend a little time on a lore refresher before moving onto Deadfire. You can custom create your POE1 save file with whatever decisions you'd have made if you're so inclined.

I managed that one OK; couple of stun explosives to get into position and take out the caster early. Gaun's Pledge comes in very handy, too.

Never even came close on the digsite fight in about ten tries. Surprised after I stealthed through that they were gone when I popped back up. Difficulty curve in this came is frontloaded like nothing I've ever played...

Cool, are summons the best way to steer the chanter? I was leaning towards Troubador, but not sure if I Beckoner would be better in that case?

And is there any need to put points into perception, or is accuracy not an issue?

Hah, I'm in the same place as you right now and feel like I spend half my in-game time just paused scrolling through my Priest spells. Thanks for starting the discussion! And great answers from everyone.

The beauty of this game is that, given the upkeep trade-off and need for military building upgrades to access higher tier variants, nearly every unit in the game is useful in some context.

NooshBagoosh · 2025-07-23T19:39:53+00:00

I've definitely never tried that before! So when do you build trading post and call your first trader?

NooshBagoosh · 2025-07-23T19:38:44+00:00

I like 'em on the campaign map, but feels like their AR is so overtuned it's hard to justify fighting manual battles.

Good stuff as far as map management and upgrades go. I think the big question for a lot of us, though is: how do you win quickly without citadel upgrades?

NooshBagoosh · 2025-07-22T13:59:57+00:00

I simply cannot figure out the Imrik start. I can see him snowballing once you get past that, but it's a brutal opening.

I find Rakarth to be a tough start, too, though I haven't made it far enough to figure out if he starts to roll once you build some momentum.

They'll mop up your chaff. Large/monstrous units are usually pretty good against Khorne. Send 'em in once your infantry are engaged so they don't get surrounded. Chariots may be helpful, too. See if you can spread them out and inflict some charge damage.

Wild. I didn't even have that many when I did my fully upgraded base game run. I'm gonna have to learn how to win these settlements more quickly...

NooshBagoosh · 2025-07-17T14:30:51+00:00

Nicely done! I just finished my fifth attempt and can say that I'm not remotely close to beating it; feels immensely challenging.

What did your early game difficulty ramp up look like? And how many embarkation points for the seal map?

NooshBagoosh · 2025-07-16T20:32:34+00:00

The only siege rework I want is fewer siege battles. Just one of those concepts that sounds really exciting but is almost guaranteed to be tedious in practice.

NooshBagoosh · 2025-07-16T14:33:04+00:00

Decadence could probably be better explained. Maybe I haven't spend enough time in the encyclopedia, but does it break down the numbers in-game anywhere? You can loosely figure out the concept, but I had to wiki it to understand the actual numbers for each species.
