Head clipping with Hair


Uldarcross

Recommended Posts

I managed to create some hairs and convert others from Fallout 3, but i always get a clipping issue, its just the head appearing over the hair. i tried for example nova's hair mod, and i get the same stuff.

Everything is in place meshes and textures.

 

Please help me

I read something the other day, TK said if you make a bsa for helmets and hair, then some issue with facegen files not being read is solved. ie so it morphs with the head, as it is your facegen files are probably not working..

 

It's normal, Most hair mods are Oblivion mods, Converted to work with Fallout 3. But the head meshes are different and is clipping through the hair.

if anyone did not actually fit the hair to the fallout head when doing a conversion they are an idiot. tbh i don't for a second believe someone actually has done that though, If you actually look at the difference in the 2 heads, it is rather large, to the point i think no hair or helmet would actually be remotely correct without adjustment,

if an oblivion hair was used without repositioning it to fit the f3 head, it would actually appear somewhere abouts the upper middle of the head, and would probably be coming through the eyes, back and top of the head. it would be more than a little wrong.

so, then i need to edit the hair meshes?, ow i didnt want to start messing with the .nif files..

i didnt have any clipping problems in FO3, and yeah i saw new vegas heads are slightly larger than fallout 3. dont understan why they did it. i guess theres nothing i can do to avoid cliping other than creating new larger hair meshes.

Thanks for your help guys

really the NV heads are actually larger..? that is odd.

 

If that is the case, then yes you will need to edit the hair models if they haven't been modified already. And if the head model has changed a bit, you will probably need to remake the facegen files as well.

 

afaik, to avoid clipping, you will still need to set up bsa archives for hair and helmets to
