MamaMangle Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 hey there guys.. uhh..I know this topic has been an issue since fallout 4 launched, but I've not been able to find any solutions to my problem in particular. basically, every single human being has brown face. every skin tone, every preset both vanilla and modded..literally everyone. it's actually making me want to cry. I take most of my enjoyment from settlement building and modifying my characters appearance and story, so having her eyebrows suddenly run off and for her and every other person in Boston turn a specific shade of brown is really upsetting. (I also have a problem with unscrappable bushes and it's driving me absolutely nuts) this brown face doesn't match any skin tones either. it's it's own shade. sometimes, her face will just be a black void with two eyes!! I honestly don't know what to do. It happens when I both enable and disable the HD texture pack. it happens no matter what CBBE skins I'm using or whatever. it happens even after messing about for like two hours with the brown face workaround, after using both blackface patches on here.. I'm at my wits end!!! if anyone could help me I would be eternally grateful ;^; and if anybody does have a solution, could you please explain it to me like you would to a kid? I have problems with learning and following instructions to a degree >.< thank you so much in advance <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undeadbob666 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Could be not installing textures properly if using CBEE, or you could try this mod, not sure if it works I just typed in brown face on nexus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noraimironhand Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Having the same problem after steam updated my game. But my faces are missing their eyes also! Even when opening creation kit with just fallout4.esm with no overrides, no eyes! Brown face usually results from changes to the npc's face in creation kit and not creating a new face gen data with Ctrl+F4 for it.So all I can think of is that they did something to the face gen data. I'm going to try an experiment and re-create all of the face gen data and see if that works. WTF Bethesda! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dikr Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Posting plugins.txt as well as screenshots of your Meshes / actors / character / characterassets and Textures / actors / character / basehumanfemale + basehumanmale folder contents might help in finding the cause of this.

noraimironhand Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Well good news and bad news. Creation kit will not use face textures in bc5 compression for face gens anymore. The good news is you can use elrich to compress your face textures to bc7. I did this and my brown face(s) disappeared. As for the eye's, Bethesda messed with the skeletons. The eyes are in the back of the head. DefaultBodyPartData doesn't recognize several node names including Spine1. However you can highlight the eyes in preview and there they are 180' from where they should be. No body or head mesh has been added or the skeleton(s) they are all from Bethesda's BA2's.No vanilla textures for the eye's have been added or removed also Bethesda BA2.I even installed Eyes of beauty then uninstalled it because no change. I had no problem until after the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
