Grey scars with ENB subsurface scattering

[Vaz2008]

RaceMenu overlays look fine, but scars from the scars slider look like this when SSS is enabled:

 

 

I was able to find this thread on the ENB forum about a very similar issue, but it turns out it's not exactly the same. I made those changes to the NIFs myself and tested them before realizing this mod also takes care of that. Neither the mod nor my own changes solved the problem.

 

It's not all ENBs that do it. For some reason, the subsurface scattering in Ruvaak Dahmaan works perfectly. I tried copying its SSS settings over to NAT, one of the ENBs that make the scars grey, but that didn't help either.

Tried it just now. It works and it looks good. That's close enough to a solution for me. Thanks!
