Ok, in brief i've been modding since Morrowind however after coming back to New Vegas i've encountered some weird issues with textures. Neither the built in archive invalidation work on FOMM or Nexus mod manger, or rather they don't completely work. They allow MOST modded textures to work but a few do not and a few cause the pink/missing texture bug. After multiple bug testing I decided to download ArchiveInvalidation.txt File Generator and this fixes all of the issues mentioned previously, however it causes a new issue. Default texture no long appear, any mod that only slightly changes textures (Face mod but not body mod, or parts of armor replacers) causes black or pink textures. So i've been having to hunt down every hd texture pack i can to fix this. Does anyone know whats going on, how to make default textures peek through, or how to fix this because I hate having to stop playing to hunt down a texture mod. So far I've had to find texture mods for; teeth, raider bodies, default npc heads, power armor textures, male upper body textures. It seems that any mod that only slightly changes something then allows the default game to take over the rest causes an issue. I'd just like default textures to work along side mods, I never remembered ever having this issue. PS: If this is a simple fix and I'm just being dumb please tell me the fix and point and laugh at me at the same time.
