How to Making African American NPCs

[NomadDarmadeus]

I have a problem creating an African American NPC.

I'm using this to create SGT Apone from the movie Aliens.

can someone help me make his whole body color as dark as his face?

 

SGT Apone wants to be like Michael Jackson

From my experience there are three things that fix most (if not all) mismatched face/body problems:

 

1) For the white face, normal body you need "bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles=1" in the fallout.ini

2) For the normal face / white body, you need to either make the esp into an esm (esmify the mod)

3) or set the flag on the NPC in the GECK for "Can be all races" - unfortunately, some modders don't realize this and forget to check this flag when they make NPCs.

 

If your a player and not a modder, the last two may be a bit difficult, #2 needs FO3Edit, while #3 needs the GECK.

 

#2 can also be accomplished by extracting the body textures from the BSA into the data folder, aparantly.

Oh finally someone came and help. Lol

I'm a player and an amateur modder so I don't know alot of things.

But I'm creating this character in GECK.

 

I under stand #1 and #3 but not #2. How do I do it?

I tried using Lucas Simms' Body but that wouldn't work.

I'm beginning to think there's something wrong with the texture itself? You think that's possible?

 

Check out the forearms in the first screenshot, looks kinda screwed up right?

but the forearms in the 2nd screenshot looks fine.

 

What do you make of it?

 

EDIT:

Alright I don't think there's anything wrong with the textures

These are the screenshot the Mod Creator for Aliens Outfit (Link Here) uploaded:

His arms seems fine, especially for the Ghoulie in the 2nd screenshot.

 

(20mins later) after further investigation,

I found out that the weird texture happening to the hands was due to the 3rd party body mod.

Now that I've removed it, there's no more texture problems.

 

Only problem that remains is the fact that Apone has Michael Jackson hands!

I've tried step #2 and #3 and both doesn't work. help!
