I have been trying to figure this out and fix it since lastnight.. I opened the altered meshes in 1 window and the vanilla meshes in another...side by side comparison changing anything that was not identical such as flags , naming , even unknown short settings....I also made sure the remappable texture box was checked in the BSlightingshaderproperty... everything that I could find is identical now. I did this for the cuirassf_1.nif , cuirassf_0.nif and both of the cuirassfsleeves.nif.... loaded game and via console added both the soliture and riften stormcloak armors but sadly they still both show as default texture. of course if I remove the altered nif files the color change as they should.. I can't figure this out either..
