Pellape Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 (edited) This is a known problem but as it works for some but not for me, I do not give up trying to fix it. All input and ideas are of course welcome. It have been debated before, but with no solution that works for me, not yet at least. So what do I have on the agenda? Well I do not start it clean right now as It starts with NVSE and JIP and loads of other obscure DLL's and I did manage to create a NPC and edit it earlier, if I do recall right. I do focus at my F3 quest right now, not FNV so F3 facegen works just fine. I do have one single NPC in my current FNV mod, but I worked on F3 now for a week or 2, since then, so it is possible I do mix them up? Well... Backup all save files Rename all current FNV top folders, also the hidden one at appdata, with plugins.txt and also home dir I did edit all those 3, just added a O or a X or whatever at the ends of them. Install a pure new game Start GECK original, test Start GECK upgraded, test If Fail, talk to AI, a dialog about options AI have helped me with loads of issues and it was AI that did solve my AMD/NVIDIA issues as well, with the black screen. I do not know if AI can solve it, but who knows? If I can solve this, I am sure more than me will be happy really and it do bothers me a lot and I do think about it, try to make a sense of it, but I do fail that for sure. It is better to try fixing it, than ignoring it and make work arounds for sure. One possible workaround might be to use F3 Geck but this is a pure specualtion so far. create a faces export the facedata, if poossible, with F3edit Load FNVedit Import the facedata I do guess that F3 and FNV do use the same Facedata, but I am bot 100% sure. Maybe you do know this better than I do? Why renaming the folders? Well, all MS win apps, are saved in Win Registry, a database and most win apps do look there. Renaming these 3 folders, is the same as they did never exist, which is an easy way to fool Windows, believing that the next installation is a new one, never done before.

Pellape Posted November 5 Author Share Posted November 5 (edited) Solved: Make a pure install, do not forget to rename the 3 top folders in the previous message, backup your save files, do not upgrade or touch it, just start GECK. Make faces. Save your esp and do remember, you cannot edit them again. Rename the new top folders Rename the old top folders Edit your esp with NVSE, JIP and whatever DLL's you are using  DAMN. I am so happy right now that, I could BURST!!!!!  :D In the final test I did load GECK. made a new NPC saved the esp Closed GECK Started GECK Loaded my esp edited my NPC Made the 2nd screenshot. 2 click at generate facegen. He sure looks cool really. I save that one, for now. Edited November 5 by Pellape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted November 5 Author Share Posted November 5 (edited) So what is the problem? It can be plenty of stuff causing it. The GECK update Xnvse JIP other DLL's Start FNV in Fullscreen DLL My NPC is to ugly, GECK hates him Something else That number 7 is very clear and suspect cause, for sure.  Damn, I am still so happy and filled with adrenaline, that I could burst, again. I should try to cool down now. Damn, Oblivion Ai is just crazy. They did stop this in Skyrim. I get the feeling F3 and FNV sometimes do work as Oblvion as some stuff the NPC say, do not make sense but it is not as bad as it is in Oblivion. But still, it sure makes me laugh but sometimes it also reminds me of that they are nothing than stupid NPC's, and that do turn me off some, really makes the game less appealing. But that video here is just hilarious and made me laugh a lot now. I only made a search in youtube: I could burst, found that one.  And yes, I am a sneaky looking sort, indeed. Edited November 5 by Pellape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted November 5 Author Share Posted November 5 (edited) After the faces are created: Rename the newest 3 top folders Rename the old 3 top folders back again to what they used to be copy your new esp from the new data folder to the old Datafolder Start GECK with all junk DLL's Do not ever try to edit the faces So if I want to make more faces? Well do that with the so called "new" GECK again, save as a new esp, copy it and load it with your original GECK and your main ESP + nvse and edit the NPC, give them a new ID and voila...  Still do not open facegen or it crashes. Damn hard work, walking all over the river to get a glass of water but it works and that is better than nothing.

Pellape Posted November 5 Author Share Posted November 5 (edited) By the way, do not do as I did, play F3 and install FNV at the same time, it did not work so well I was bored...  The FNV installotion did crash  So I restarted it and went here typing something instead during the installation, and that did work much better really.
