NPC Issues afyer loading Cobl

[TheOtherRick]

Let me start by saying I am brand new to this forum and even more of a noob when it comes to using mods. I did try a search, but lack the patience to wade through 65 pages of posts to locate the exact thread I might need.

 

I have been playing vanilla for quite a while and wanted to start using mods for a hyper-immersive serious RP character. I started looking for mod lists and found Arwen's list and website. She has a great guide to mods she is using, and the gameplay style was exactly what I was looking for. But I digress...

 

I started by loading utility mods, then mods that alter game play and graphics. I have OBMM, OBSE, OBGE, and Pluggy installed. The only .esm file installed is Cobl Main (besides Oblivion.esm of course). Here is a list of my .esp files in their load order as shown on OBMM;

 

UOP

Cobl Glue

Cobl Tweaks

Cobl Races TNR

Cobl Races

Salmo the Baker, Cobl

Cyrodiil Transportation Network 1.3

Alive Waters - Koi Addon (disabled)

Harvest [Flora]

Cobl Filters Late MERGE ONLY (disabled)

Cobl Races - Balanced

Cobl Silent Equip Misc (disabled)

 

As you can see, not much there yet. I also have DarUld_DarN_16_OMOD_Version-11280 listed on the OBMM in a seperate column with a blue box next to it. That mod is working so I assume that's where it should be. I wanted Cobl early because so many other good mods are Cobl dependent.

 

So here is my issue. Cobl was the last set of mods I loaded and since then many NPCs (including Uriel Septim and Jauffre...yikes) have solid black eyes. Also many are bald, both male and female. And during the start-up, there were new races that had completely black skin and eyes. And all of the new eye colors were solid black. I have obviously screwed up somewhere. Can someone point me the right way?

 

Also of note - I do not have SI or KOTN or any other DLC. When I first loaded Cobl, I had included the SI files and when I started the game there was an immediate CTD. I removed all of the SI files and the game plays now, except with the previously mentioned defects.

If you're gonna use COBL Races, make sure download and install COBL cosmetic resources.

Where do I find that since the Cobl site is down?
