Uhhh not even sure what that would accomplish given that I'm literally loading these with no other mods installed. And yeah, I've started a lot of new games. I think the real issue here is trying to figure out how to get facegen data loaded properly. Anytime I use the CK export feature it either just reverts it to vanilla face with the proper hair or black face. Not sure what other method I could use for this.

I mean, it's not like taking out USSEP made it go away.

Well, initially with Kallie's I was getting black face so I used the CK export method a lot of people seem to recommend. There aren't any activated below it that would change Ysolda's face.

Messed around with other mods. After doing exporting with Kallies NPC overhaul, this is the result: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/775112350260511998/C88188920A3A9151047FDDA1333ED535174EC5D3/ https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/775112350260512373/E4D201E836A4965E57E723D0C543957110054E32/ https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/30247 Not black face, but it's clearly far off from what they're supposed to look like in game. It seems like facegen data is not loading properly for whatever reason. This was loaded with nothing else in the load order btw. Could it be that these mods have other mod requirements I'm unaware of? That's odd to me because Bijin worked for me fine without any additional mods in my LE playthrough. As for Bijin, this is what I got with JUST wives loaded. https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/775112350260625254/D5B0E8999DBADD45EC429080495EE63C6AB5F2B7/ Dunno how helpful it is for you.

Yeah, I am profoundly confused. Cleaning does nothing. Is it possible that this black face occurs because of some ENB or Skyrim.ini setting I'm unaware of? Edit: Alright, I did some experimenting. Seems like Wico and Ordinary Women work fine in an empty load order. Yet for whatever reason, I still get problems with Bijin and Pandorable as well as Better Men and Male NPC overhaul. Not sure what's up with that.

Okay, I see how that's unique now. However, it can be explained. If you have the ESP for Bijin active, but the FaceGen meshes are missing or can't be seen by the game, then you'll get dark face. It will try to use the original FaceGen meshes that are contained in the vanilla BSAs, and since they don't match Bijin, boom. That's why I suggested checking the Data tab. If they're not there at all, then the game won't see them. Maybe they're in the wrong directory somehow. Or maybe they really are there and you did Ctrl+F4 in the CK while a different ESP was active and it overwrote the Bijin meshes with bad ones. Or maybe you accidentally installed the Oldrim versions (actually, I'm not sure if this would do it). Have you tried with say, just Bijin Warmaidens SE? Also, is your Skyrim Special Edition main folder clean? There shouldn't be any leftover files from NMM, Vortex or manual installs. Have you cleaned out your MO Overwrites folder? I've actually tried just manually installing these mods and it still crops up. It's astonishing to me. I'll try cleaning it to see if that works, I guess.

Literally none, like I said. I get that dark face is a common problem, but in my case, black face occurs literally in an empty load order. If I use nothing but Bijin for example, it's black face. I have never seen anyone get black face in that circumstance. How am I getting black face when it's just the mod on its own with nothing else in the load order?

The thing is it's any face overhaul, not just Bijin. And I have done those instructions. I have also checked for conflicts and found none. I've tried your method with looking for the ID in data, but I'm not exactly sure if I get the process you want me to try. I looked at the data through MO2 and I didn't see any actor IDs. But looking at the folders outside of MO2, I found that all of the actors files were adjusted in the way you suggested. Isn't binvalidateolderfiles obsolete in Skyrim? I guess I might give it a try regardless. Edit: It didn't work.

I am astonished how I seem to be the only person that has this problem. Any time I use any NPC face replacer, I get black face. I've tried everything - clearing conflicts in SSEdit, Refreshing every NPC in the game/mod with F4 on Creation kit, placing all the NPC overhauls at the bottom of the left panel on MO2, removing ALL mods aside from the ones used to change faces. I don't get what could be causing this. It's literally giving me blackface on its own with no other mods installed. I am using MO2, I've been using mods such as Bijin AIO and Pandorable. All of them give me black face. Every single one.

Hi, I'm new to using ENB's and am curious how to fix this lighting issue. I downloaded this: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/43765/? Which lead to this: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/776230357640660436/CACC7723250014C2D7EE0A6B670EF663210846C4/ Although it does flicker and I can occasionally get this: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/776230357640660154/C1DD923E0216BCBDF806DA5553A02A7FFEEBDFA6/ I've downloaded ELFX as my lighting mod. Is there some way I can fix this? Using NMM, have used Loot and SKSE, and here's my mod order in the text file. Not my final build, just messing around with stuff before I settled on a final build for my playthrough.

If by Bash patch, you mean this: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/35003 Then no, it didn't work.

I came to an area around Primm and I just keep crashing. Like, any time I load up the game around there it would just crash immediately. I also seem to get the mixed up texture problem/black textures as well even though I hadn't installed any graphics or texture mods and my plugin count is under 130. Oddly when i went over that number I never experienced crashes, but since I lowered the count now I do. I've triged a lot of methods, I download enb series, anti-crash, used archive invalidation for the textures, used anti-crash, used 4GB. etc Plugins: http://i.imgur.com/yakYWV1.png

I'm getting this error too. Here's my load order. Also, could there be some compatibility patches I may be missing?

I've been having serious issues trying to actually boot up FNV4GB. I followed the instructions and got this: http://i.imgur.com/Pm9uX3d.png I tried the other suggested numbers like 22380 but no cigar. The full target was: "C:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\Fallout New Vegas\fnv4gb.exe -SteamAppID 33972" I also get this message when I try to open it up normally. http://i.imgur.com/4UfZXt3.png
