Skin Tone Problem?

[nicktheduke]

hello all

so i installed oblivion character overhaul and i seem to have a problem with skin tone in character gen/NPCs. you can see what i mean in this forum topic (doesn't include a fix): http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/613951-reduce-body-hue-variation/

basically when i go into character gen's skin tone setting, i can adjust the slider all the way from (black) to (white) which basically eliminates the skin texture/details. this applies to NPCs as well

I've tried removing mods from load order but haven't had much luck. even when i'm in vanilla, i have the same problem but not quite as bad.

when i set bFaceGenTexturing to 0, it removes the slider functionality but i lose the textures altogether...

is there any simple fix without doing a clean reinstall of oblivion? or is this just how the game is?

it's rather annoying to have a snow white dark elf gleaming after you in a dungeon...

hi all

 

still trying to fix this skin tone problem with oblivion :(

 

i just did what i thought was a clean reinstall but when i loaded the *vanilla* game up, the textures are still super drastic...

 

i've uploaded screenshots to show what i mean: http://imgur.com/a/sHNKd

 

is there any way to fix this? i don't ever recall there being blue albinos or people completely devoid of skin tone in the game :(

 

is there a skin tone or any texture replacer i can use? was planning on using Oblivion Character Overhaul but its pointless if i can't resolve this problem...

 

please let me know. thanks.

it was mentioned to me that it's a mod that's raising the sliders all the way from -1000 to +1000?

 

does anyone know which mod this is + how to resolve this?
