Could anyone please help me with my custom follower?

Hello everyone, I'm really sorry if this is in the wrong place I'm very new to this forum but I think this is the right place. I've been working on my first mod, a custom stand alone follower. Her name is Yukina, and I think I am going to make her a pure healer/support follower. I'm actually almost done with her, but I've ran into a very unexpected problem. She's basically 98% done all I really need to do is test the way she works. Everything was perfect, she turned out exactly the way I wanted her to look in game so I took a break for awhile. Today I thought I'd finally test her out in game. But when I loaded up a save she was all messed up! For some reason her skin texture, hair, and face model is not loading properly anymore and I have absolutely no idea why. It was working perfectly last time I worked on it. I've been messing around with it in the creation kit for several hours now and I'm completely stumped, everything appears to be exactly the way I left it. All of the individual parts load just fine when previewed in the creation kit, but when I try to preview the full body model in the actor editor, it says body textures are missing among other things. But again, they load just fine in every other object editor in the creation kit as far as I can tell. I have no idea what's wrong because everything looks right.

 

So I was wondering if anyone here who's much more experienced with this could lend me a hand and help me figure out what went wrong? There seems to be only 3 things not working properly, her skin texture, hair model (and perhaps hair texture?) and her face model. She's supposed to look like this:

And she did at first, but for some reason now she looks like this:

I think there's something wrong with her gloves too but I'm not worried about that right now. If anyone can please take a look at my follower I'd greatly appreciate any help and advice at all! And thanks in advance!

Hello again. These errors I think might have something to do with why her hair and skin texture isn't working properly. But I have no idea what these error messages even mean, so if anyone knows what they mean please let me know. These error messages ONLY show up when I try to load a full body preview of her, but when I try to load just a head preview of her, these error messages do not show up and her hair and skin loads just fine (and I make sure to click on Yes instead of Yes to all to make sure the error messages will keep coming up). They also load just fine when I open up the previews in the hair and body/torso/feet/hands object editors. It's so weird, I have no idea how this could even be possible. And advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again.

@ Kroekr: It was actually her armor and head gear that was causing her skin and hair not to load properly, not her hair or skin/body. I found that out when I tried taking off all her equipment and saw the skin and hair worked then. So I carefully went over all the texture paths in all the files and entries in the creation kit for her body armor and head gear. I had to go over them several times before I finally found where the faulty texture paths were. And when I corrected it, it was working again! I don't remember exactly where the faulty texture paths were, but it was one of her armor and head gear creation kit entries/objects (whatever those are called) that had the texture paths in them. If you really want to know I'll see if I can figure out where I found them.

 

As for her face model, to get that working again, I just had to re-export it again from Skyrim and into the creation kit like I did when I first made it. I hope that helps! And good luck with what you're making :smile:
