NPC Face/Body Mismatch

[ChemistGhost]

Greetings Everyone! Since first downloading Skyrim I've been piling on the mods, and there seems to be some conflicting issues with one or more of them that has resulted in a few different NPCs having face and body color mismatches. I've done a bit of research on the matter and found the following paragraph included in Apachii Skyhair's description:

 

"If you have an NPC changing mod that is made with the CK you have to also install
all the created - exported- head meshes and face textures - face tints for every changed NPC or else every changed NPC will have a grey-green face.
Make sure you install all the files from the NPC mod."

 

However I am confused on A: Figuring out what NPC mods that I have installed were made with the creation kit and B: How to export said meshes/textures.

Also not ALL NPCs do have the above mentioned grey faces, just a small portion of them.

 

Below I have listed the mods I currently have installed. Hopefully someone more computer/mod savvy can help me figure out this problem.

Face/Body texture 'mis-matching' and the 'gray face bug' are two different things. The latter usually appear on mod added NPCs or mod edited vanilla NPCs where the author did not export facegen files and upload them with the mod. The former is usually caused by mixing face/body textures from different body/face texture mods. Can you upload a sceenshot of what the problem looks like in your game?

Firstly thanks so much for replying so quickly!

Here's the link to a screenshot I just took:

That's the infamous 'gray face bug.' If that NPC is a mod added NPC, then the mod author did not export and upload the appropriate facegen files for the NPC. If that NPC is a vanilla game NPC, then you are using a mod that modified that vanilla game NPC (usually to 'beautify' them...), and the mod author also did not export and upload the appropriate facegen files after s/he edited the NPC. If you know which NPC it is, you can use the CK to generate the facegen files yourself. If not, or if this affect too many NPCs, then I would just uninstall the mod.

Ah alright. Well I don't know anything really about the creation kit so I wouldn't know where to start.

But since it is only certain NPCs and not ALL of my NPCs I'm going to take a wild guess and say that it's one of the custom NPC mods that's doing it.

To me this looks like a mismatch between Interesting NPCs and the Caliente Body mod. Why not try contacting the authors?
