Trouble with Merged Esp and Warpaints/Makeup

[Lyia73]

Hello everyone,

So as I said in the topic title I'm having trouble getting a merged esp to work and with pixelated warpaints. I've modded Skyrim in the past, spent a plethora of hours on it, but I took a break for a couple years. I've just recently gotten back into Skyrim and modding so I'm having to relearn a lot of things which could be part of the problems I'm having.

Anyway, here is the problem I'm experiencing with the merged esp: I use the wonderful Merged Plugins tool by matortheeternal. I was able to install the Merged Plugin tool, set it up to work with Mod Organizer following the modder's instructions, and merge the various armors I want to use into one esp with complete success. After I merged the various armor mods, the final product showed up in my Mod Organizer and I ticked it to activate it/enable it my game. Then I loaded up my game - a completely clean vanilla save that I'm using to test various mods before creating a character to really play with - and I used the console command to make sure that the armors were in my game, that everything was working, but not a single one of the armors I'd merged were in my game. Despite the merged esp being enabled in Mod Organizer and all the textures, meshes ect from the various armor mods being in the merged esp just like it should be none of the armors are in the game. So for some reason I'm able to merge the armors, successfully use the merge plugin tool, but I can't get them to actually show up in the game. I also posted this issue on the merged plugin tools comments, but I have yet to receive a response. If anyone could provide me with any help or suggestions in this matter I would greatly appreciate it.

The other problem I'm experiencing is that the warpaints on my character are looking pixelated and some are not looking pixelated exactly, but as though they're only partially showing or faded. I have SKSE installed and I have iTintTextureResolution=2048 installed in my skse.ini. The skse,ini is located in the SKSE folder in Skyrim Data. I also have Diamonized UNP as a base installed along with Mature Skin and I have a couple warpaint mods installed such as Battle Hardened Warpaints. For some reason, some of the warpaints appear to look how they should, like the skse tweak is working, but the majority of them look horrible. It would make more sense to me if they all looked crappy, but when some look good I can't figure out what's going on. I'll upload a few links to screenshots I've taken to show you exactly what I'm talking about.

I want to thank you all in advance for taking the time to read my post and for any help that you can provide with the issues I'm having. Of course if you need any additional information or data, please don't hesitate to ask me and I'll gladly provide you with whatever you require. Thank you again.

 

EDIT/UPDATE: I was able to fix the problem I was having with the warpaints by installing a wonderful mod called Vanilla Warpaints Absolution. Either that mod took care of my problem or the warpaints just happened to get fixed after I installed it by sheer coincidence. Either way, that problem is taken care of. But I'm still at a complete loss as to how to fix the issue I'm having with the Merged Plugin Tool. I have posted a brand new/updated topic to ask for help solely with that problem.
