Fallout Character Overhaul + Mikoto Beauty Pack + Hi-Res Eyes: two eyes per socket in non replaced eyes, help?

[ShadowSora94]

Hello. So, like many, I have suffered through the infamous eye glitch of FCO. I used to use an old, manual installation version of it, but the backup got corrupted during a system restore and I am now using the most current version.

I use Mod Organizer to install my mods as not only is it the easiest (i've been using it for nearly four years now, ever since Skyrim came out) as I had trouble with FOMM's mod installer. And of course, the vanilla eyes were now permanently veering to the right. After doing some looking around, all suggestions turned to using Hi-Red Eyes, and sure enough: my character's eyes weren't wonky anymore. I installed Hi-Res eyes, and hey: everything seemed to be working out great. I got the hair I wanted from Mikoto, the skins of FCO, and everything seemed just fine for a few hours... until I killed some Jackal gang members. Then I noticed a new, unholy eye terror the likes of which I hadn't seen since the Cheyenne eye glitch.

 

Just trying to see if they have any ammo worth looting, and what do I see?

Oh.

 

Jesus Christ have mercy on me.

Somehow, someway, I don't think this is a typical effect of radiation in the Fallout universe. I mean, i'd accept it as canon in an instant because two eyes per socket actually sounds kinda cool (especially if eyes are bigger so they can be used, after all), but Lord have mercy this is not how eyes are supposed to look in-game. For a better look at how this is, I took some screenshots of character creation to show how they look in comparison to a normal eye when Hi-Res Eyes is active.

This is not how men and women were meant to live...

 

What puzzles me is how this is only an issue if Hi-Res eyes is installed. When uninstalled, all other custom eyes work perfectly. Here's the exact same eyes without Hi-Res Eyes installed with the infamous eye glitch in effect:

I'm starting to think this issue MIGHT not be related to Mikoto at all, honestly. For something everyone claims is basically the fix for FCO's eye glitch, I haven't seen anyone talk about this. When I run Hi-Res eyes with FCO inactive and Mikoto running, my eyes work normally.

 

Does anyone have any recomendations? I'll try reinstalling them tomorrow to see if anything changes. I tried to create a mod for FCO to remove all of it's eye option so i could only rely on the vanilla eyes, but no luck there.

Anybody at all? Would trying to remove the custom eyes through GECK get me any better results?

Experienced the same issue. In the end it was a matter of choosing Mikoto over FCO or the other way around. SMH

It's a known bug with FCO. You can work around it by opening up FCO's meshes and textures folders and deleting everything related to eyes.

That doesn't work for me. I can disable every single graphic mod, and as long as Mikoto's Beauty mod is installed, that eye glitch persists where NPCs look to the right.

I've has similar issues while using Mojave delight and FCO or FNV RD. What seems to work...for some reason is to either try a different set of eye textures (though depending on what mods you have installed that may still not work.) or uninstalling any add-ons a mod has. Like in my case, I had to uninstall the two add ons 'Mojave delighted' and the patch.

 

For some reason that I can't explain. Removing the 'hair mods' seems to fix the eye glitch.
