RaceMenu issues. Help needed


Appletoast

Recommended Posts

Hey there,


so I recently came back to Skyrim and wanted to (of course) mod it

One of my favourite mods to date is RaceMenu simply due to the fact that you can import and export presets (makes character creation a whole lot easier).


I have to say, I have never had any issues with this mod before.


So for my first playthrough I chose this preset: http://skypreset-warehouse.eu/Preset/ADetails/29


So I installed everything correctly (hopefully). RaceMenu works. But when I try to load any presets the characters look just bloated, almost freakish, and definitely weird: http://imgur.com/a/4ZKWm


As opposed to how it should look: http://imgur.com/a/uAlk9


Any and all help would be appreciated. I am totally clueless and it's frustrating the hell out of me.


Here's also my modlist/load order: https://modwat.ch/u/Kadmeia/plugins


Using NMM. Also tried with MO. Didn't work either.


Multiple reinstalls of Skyrim and RaceMenu have not bettered my situation. Even the ingame vanilla presets look very odd with noses too long and pointy, cheeks either puffed out or cheekbones too high, chins too long and pointy, oddly shapen mouths, and so on: http://imgur.com/a/eLJgE


So far I gather that it seems to be an issue with RaceMenu itself and nothing else (since I've pretty much got nothing else in there at the moment except RaceMenu's prerequisites).


Another preset I tried to get working. They pretty much all look like this: http://imgur.com/a/U1ZEV


And here is how it *should* look: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/78313/?


Didn't install the eye or body mod, but it's pretty apparent that *something* is amiss.

I believe that you're missing mods that you're required to use. Look at the Required Mods List on that Preset site you shared - make sure you have all of them.

 

Yeah, I did that. Didn't make a difference. With SG Textures, for example, the faces are a bit more smooth and round, but still look like my chars are freaks of nature. The modlist here, is just what I have got now after the latest fresh install of Skyrim.

First make sure you're installing it correctly. There are probably tutorials online you could look up. Secondly, make sure you use every mod they suggest even if it's optional. Also, make sure you RaceMenu and everything else is perfectly up to date. If that still is not working out for you - then something else is inherently wrong with the mods you're using that change how faces and bodies look in your game. It's difficult to tell because those don't show up in a load order typically.

I've tried following the instructions on the preset/mod pages to a T. Result was the same mess as above. Not using any other mods besides those showing up on modwatch. Also used the latest versions of all the required mods.

 

It seems to be something with RaceMenu..perhaps? No clue otherwise.

 

EDIT: So, again, followed the Remilia instructions to a T. Face looked silky smooth, but still f*#@ed. Nose too long, chin too long, cheeks puffy. I'm really desperate here.

I'm honestly not sure what you could be doing wrong. Try using this preset and see what happens. Make sure you're only using what this mod says you need, including optional mods. Nothing else that changes appearance should be active.

 

H E A T H E R - RaceMenu Preset:

And that's what I inevitably end up with: http://imgur.com/a/UFy98

 

Like I said. It seems to be an issue with RaceMenu..or something belonging to it.
