I finally took the dive to change over to Vortex, allowing it to import all my mods from NMM. Everything seems to have ported over without too much trouble until I went to return to my Fallout 4 game and noticed that I had the base vanilla character shape; so I exited and went to use bodyslide to reinstall the shape and bodyslide was completely blank even when the mods were there. Uninstalled and reinstalled bodyslide and no change. Uninstalled all my mods and reinstalled them, no change; then started to panic and tried to use the old bodyslide data to overwrite the files in the vortex folder, got the shapes/slides but completely devoid of textures. Deleted both Caliente and bodyslide from Vortex leaving the folders in the vortex folder, ported the original bodyslide data from the game folder and put that in the vortex folder before installing both Caliente and Bodyslide on Vortex; ran bodyslide and everything showed up! Feeling encouraged, i went in game and found myself back to the vanilla shape. I've tried as many ways as i could think of to fix it outside of a complete wipe and reinstallation of Fallout 4, Vortex and all the mods I use. I am at my wit's end now after fiddling with it, installing and reinstalling several times. Any help would be appreciated that might explain what I might doing wrong, outside of that, I believe I have to do a complete wipe and fresh reinstall of Fallout 4 with every mod with no idea if that would work either. If a fresh reinstall will behave better, I guess it'll have to be done :ohdear: I'm just hoping to avoid the loss of what I've completed in game to this date :sad: ....... Now I'm dreading about going back to oldrim, it has more mods than my Fallout 4
