Attempting to remove or adjust refraction effect during chameleon

[freakuent]

So, I've spent the better part of today digging through FO4edit, trying to figure out a way of removing or at least modifying the transparency effect placed on the player while sneaking with chameleon armor. I believe it has much to do with the uneditable parameters in the "StealthBoyInvisibilityEffect" effect shader, EFSH:00102B7E.

 

Below you'll see that when editing the probably very similar invisibility fx shader in skyrim, most if not all parameters below "DATA-" are editable:

In FO4Edit, these parameters are blank, and prohibit editing of any kind:

At the bottom of this entry in FO4Edit, there is a "DNAM" field, with a decent amount of what I assume is hex for the value. Even when I make an .esp which REMOVES all of this hex, the effect still applies during chameleon & stealth boy.

 

I've explored other avenues, like trying to change the chameleon armor modifier itself, to no avail. Am I missing something easy here, guys? Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks guys.

EFSH is not decoded yet. If you don't want to experiment with hex values just redirect to another EFSH record of your choice.

Why not just use a different magic effect than one that comes with a shader?

Interesting idea. I'll look into it today. Thanks!

Hey guys! I figured out a solution! Still some minor things to work out or improve, but check it out! Hooray for my first real mod!
