reimannsum

So I stumbled down this rabbit hole: I started playing XCOM recently after having it sit in my steam library for 5 or so years. I liked it and thought maybe there were mods to tweek it the tiniest bit. So really I have DGC.ini working and a Skill tree changer. nice and easy! I start a new game so I can reskill all my people, play through several hours and then I start to notice some of the skills don't seem to be working. I start searching on and eventually end up on http://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/XCOM:EU_Perks and find the link to here but after trying it I realize it is for patch 4 and we are past that. is the answer as simple as changing the offset? or do I need to learn to mod to rebuild the mod from scratch?

I had a mod that made you invisible as long as you wore the ring. but it started breaking. I noticed this glitch after a day or two and so don't want/may not have a save that goes back that far. the mod worked fine for several save/loads and even a few quit restarts; then one day boom perma-invisible. before I uninstalled the mod it was worse: I was actually stealthboy'd so I couldn't see my own reflex dot. now at least first person is fine. I cracked the mod files (the mod author took it down after I reported the bug or I would share a link) and saw that the ring just gave the stealth buff with a duration of 0. so i'm thinking it might just be stuck on, but if I can crack my save mayube I can remove the offending code myself. here is the mod so you guys can look at it yourself

here is what happens when I wear a helmet

here is the best example I can make easily

yes, which is only really irritating when trying to see what things look like on me or in conversation as I am composed of the shadows inside my mouth and around my outline.

Is there some way to look at my save data? I seem to have what i'm guessing is the stealthboy invisible texture on me, but only in third person. I get into power armor and the armor goes nearly transparent. I can still see myself but I seems to have an opacity of 5% or something. I have tried to use console commands to end the magic effect but it doesn't seem, to do any good. I'll upload pictures when I get home today.

HELP! The creator of a mod removed the mod after I submitted a bug to it! now I'm stuck! So I downloaded a mod for a "Recon Ring", which adds a ring that gives invisibility, the Recon scopes target marking ability, and highlighting of living creatures. Several days after downloading it I found it wasn't working right. All of a sudden I couldn't uncloak when I took the ring off. I uninstalled the mod and now I'm just mostly invisible. My arm and pipboy are again visible in 1st person but my 3rd person model is just my lighting outline. I can tell there are shadows in the mouth because its a darker patch where the face should be and I can see the outline of the armor. when I look at my pipboy I can see through part of the back and my arm isn't visible, although the pipboy itself is. I can upload pictures this and I still have the mod's .esp file. Any thoughts on how this can be fixed?
