Non Occluder doesn't make an object see-through, but rather tells the game that this object is see-through, that's the best way I can explain it. If you are going to build precombined geometry and visibility for a cell and don't enable this setting for your window's material, then you'll get broken visibility when you look through this window. You need more transparency. By Alpha, do you mean in the BGEM? If so, raising it makes the texture more opaque. You should lower it - like 0.8 or 0.7 and so on. Or make texture more transparent. Does your BSTrishape have a NiAlphaProperty? Usually these are the flags/settings in the alpha property used for alpha blending: Edit: I must have forgotten my glasses . You DO want to make the glass opaque. In this case what pepperman35 said below, you could use BSLightingShaderProperty instead.

I know about some of the settings. BGEMs are used for various effects, for glass or also can be used for glow. I'll start with the General settings tab. Offset/Scale UV - these are regarding the unwrapped vertices. You should rather make these kind of edits in Outfit Studio, NifSkope or other program. You don't have any kind of "preview" here and you won't know what changes until you see it in the game. Alpha - default 1. Reduce for more transparency or increase for more opaqueness, without editing the texture. Alpha Blend Mode - Standard is usually when you have alpha blending(semi-transparency). You should also have Alpha Property added to the BSTriShape in the nif(with appropriate settings/flags). Additive and Multiplicative are used in specific cases. Bethesda used Additive, when they did the glow for the Construction Protectron rotating light(Materials/Actors/CreateABot/ProtectronConstructionGlow.BGEM). They used Multiplicative for the chameleon deathclaw(Materials/Actors/Deathclaw/DeathclawChemeleonBlue.BGEM). Z Buffer Test - must be always on, otherwise you have loss of depth. Screen Space Reflections - I think it's used mostly for glass, if you have real time reflections enabled in an ENB or something. Decal - this is rather for BGSMs, when you have alpha blending. Use with Standard blend mode. Two Sided - self explanatory, you see the texture from both sides of the mesh, otherwise the back side will be invisible. Non Occluder - used for glass or other objects, through which you can see what's behind. Must be on if the object will be part of the precombines. Environment Mapping - used to create fake reflections for glass, puddles and so on. Environment Mask Scale - for controlling the reflections, if you want more or less reflective surface. Now on to the Effect tab. Base Texture - could be in color or could be gray. Grayscale Texture - here you put path for a color gradient. If Base texture is gray, you can use the grad to color it. Again for example you can refer to the chameleon deathclaw. I see for this purpose Bethesda enabled two more settings Grayscale to Palette Color(from General) and Grayscale to Palette Alpha(from Effect). Envmap Texture - path for cubemap. Must have this texture path if you enable Environment Mapping. Fake reflections come from this texture. Normal Texture - I think this works only if you use Environment Mapping. Bumps and cracks or whatever are mostly seen when you have reflections. Envmap Mask Texture - I think this has similar purpose as the glow map for the BGSM. The texture is in black and white, the parts in black do not receive reflections. Effect Lighting - not sure the exact purpose for this, but I think glass looks better with it. With this option enabled, glass changes during day and night time. If this is disabled or reduced via Lighting Influence(further below in the settings), the glass will stick out like sore thumb and even look like it's glowing at night. For glass I suggest to enable it, but reduce influence slightly, like 0.9 or 0.8. Base Color - default is white. It has influence on the base texture. You can color the Base texture if it's gray. This could also be used for emittance/glow. Base Color Scale - how much the color has influence on the Base texture or how strong is the glow. Falloff - I don't know what this setting does, Bethesda used it in some BGEM files, including for the glow of the Construction Protectron. This and anything else not mentioned, I don't know their purpose. And hopefully I'm not (too) wrong about the other settings I described above.

I haven't tried addon nodes on component before. Didn't seem like something that would crash the game. So I became curious. You are welcome.

I don't know. Download the attached file and compare it with yours. I added BSValueNode, gave it a name, changed the Value to 420 and enabled Addon in the BSX flags.

No crashes for me. I transferred nuclear material from workshop workbench to my inventory, then opened the pip-boy and dropped 1 piece on the ground. It was emitting green light. Component_Nuclear.nif

I think the Sort option inside overlays.json can be used across mods. Lets say you have mod A, B and C with overlays. You want overlays from C to appear first in the list, then from mod A and finally mod B. You start by opening overlays.json of mod C. Find the very first overlay and copy "sort": 0 . Use Replace function of the text editor and replace all with "sort": 1 . Do the same for the overlays.json of mod A and B, but use "sort": 2 and "sort": 3 respectively. This is applicable when every overlay in the json uses same sort number, which is the case most of the time.

Haven't tested, but if it's possible to use Better Console together with Highlight Console Reference, you'll know when you've selected the object in question.

Can't tell you anything on creating collision. If objects and bullets go through, then the part where the glass was did not have collision to begin with. If you want this part of the door to have collision, use the nif of a similar door, which doesn't have glass - for example PaintedWoodDoor01.nif. Put the BSTriShape of your edited door there instead. Some doors have door knob animations as well. And if you are making a workshop door, make sure you use the nif of one, because it contains connect points for snapping the doors in place.

If editing in Blender is messing with nif structure, then use original nif. From edited nif copy branch on the BSTriShape of the door and paste it in the original. Then save the original with different name - this will be your custom door. Nif of doors have animations - sequences for opening /closing of the door. BSTriShape of the door must go under the NiNode that is animated. I'm not sure how important this is, but I'm guessing if you copy a new BSTriShape and remove the existing one, you have to make appropriate changes to the NiDefaultAVObjectPalette. The name is entered manually, for AVObject you enter the number, which is in front of the BSTriShape. I'm by no means an expert in this kind of editing, so hopefully I'm not wrong about these things. Also for simple edits, maybe you can consider using Outfit Studio, because I think it doesn't mess with the nif structure. Like if you want to remove vertices from a mesh. Speaking of, when removing part of the mesh, it leaves a hole, but the collision is still there so in the game bullets will not go through. In NifSkope you can assign new material to the BSTriShape and edit the UV if necessary.

Hello again When you export a nif with physics, OS should warn you about it and show a small window with a message: In this window, below the text is the path of the model itself. You just have to put a tick in the small checkbox in front of the file path, in order to select it and then confirm with pressing OK.

You are welcome and best of luck.

No problem. Btw you were referring to this outfit, right? If yes, the hood is actually a separate mesh inside the nif(body_cloth:1). You can select it and press Delete and it will be gone without too much hassle. Then export the nif. Well, unless you are editing a CBBE version of the female outfit, it's a bit different there. You should watch some videos then, on how to open, edit and save body slide files. If you want the cap gone as well, this job is done in a plugin with an override of the Hooded Rags armor - remove the AAClothesResident6Hat [ARMA:0019DB8E] armor addon from the Models and disable Hair Top and Hair Long biped slots.

You are welcome. If the hood has separate mesh and its own texture, then it has its own material too. Open the material(BGSM) with Material Editor and reduce Alpha from 1 to 0. This will definitely make the mesh invisible. I did a quick test, it's working and is not required to add alpha property.

If the hood is a separate mesh, check what material it uses. If it's the same as the rest of the outfit, then assign new material. For the new material try with Alpha set to 0. I'm not sure if it's required to have alpha property for the tri mesh in the nif. If the hood is part of the outfit, there are two things you can do. First, just delete the hood from the mesh. In Outfit Studio use masking on the hood, then invert mask and delete vertices. Or second, add alpha property for the tri shape(mesh) of the outfit. Open material and enable Alpha Test. Edit the texture and delete the part with the hood. Make sure the texture has alpha channel, I think when you delete something, the background should be transparent. Save the texture with BC3/DXT5 compression and enabled mipmaps. Setting for Alpha Test Reference in the material could have influence on the transparency. Note: Some operations are done in NifSkope, like adding alpha property to a mesh.

When you said "distribute", I hope I didn't misunderstand something. My mod does not distribute overlays, it is meant for applying the overlays yourself, to PC and companions. If you are asking about mods with EVB female textures, I know about a few. 4K HD EVB Skins - just upscaled EVB textures. NUCLEAR Nude (Enhanced Nude) Katrin EVB and CBBE WEARABLE body underwears - same author also has Enhanced Nevernude mod. EVB Refreshment - 4K Skin Texture for EVB - Mesh Seam Fixes and Dismemberment Valkyr Female Face and Body Textures - this is for vanilla body, I'm guessing it will work on a nevernude EVB body. Edit: The Wandering Scavver- Face and Body Textures VANILLA EVB CBBE - there are a two options for vanilla nevernude body, which means it should work with nevernude EVB as well.
