Textures and meshes from mods not working

[theskyrimman]

I have installed several mods that include custom textures and meshes but these are not activating when I load my save. I manually installed them by dragging them into the data folder and overwrite the existing folders. When I go into my meshes or texture folder there are sub folders of the mod like cumshot, selobl and R18pn with textures and meshes things inside them. Am I meant to manually drag the DDS files and NIF files from theese into the appropriate folders that were already there like armour and actors? I know I'm still an ameature at this but I appreciate any help.

 

Thanks.

The file path must always be Data/Meshes or Data/Textures/. If you have Data/Meshes/Something/(Data)/Meshes, you have to drag the second Meshes folder into Data and have it overwrite everything else. Same goes for textures.

so is the correct path.
data \ meshes \ actors \ character \ character assets \ therein all must be .nif files.
data \ textures \ actors \ character \ female \ therein all must be .dds files.
if you follow this you should have no problems.
one else to note, body and textures should go together.

Mine goes:

data / meshes / actors as well as the folder called Cumshot. Inside Cumshot there are the .nif files. Do i move the files from Cumshot to the character assets folder?
