[LE] Overlays/Makeup on Standalone Actors


Recommended Posts

Basically, all I'm trying to do is make a marriageable Actor in my personal game. It doesn't really have to be standalone because of this, but I figured I'd go the extra mile and do it "right" regardless.

 

My problem comes in with using Frecklemania for one, and then any makeup. I've got SKSE set for higher res textures and all, and have been using them for some time, it's just the Creation Kit giving me problems (Isn't it always).

 

First of all, I'm not sure how to get the makeup to show up in game because if you ever run it through the Creation Kit it will come up as a red forehead, black stripe, etc. etc. Well known issues. How do I circumvent the CK and let these resources load on my Actor after I launch SKSE? Is there some way I can change the Actor in the CK to have all "Color Average" slots but then point SKSE to load them with the makeup?

 

Secondly, I'm familiar with how to set up hairs and eyes from other mods onto custom Actors (No need to explain Esmifying esps or any of that), but I don't see anything that would allow me to apply Frecklemania overlays. I'm guessing it has something to do with warpaints, but I have a couple layers of different kinds of freckles for the effect I want, including hands/body/feet, and I don't really know where to start with this. Also I assume this would have the same problem, as the overlays are definitely not the tiny 256x256 textures the CK wants to use.

 

I'm sure this is answered somewhere, but honestly some quick searches didn't find me anything useful, so I apologize in advance if there's a braindead-obvious guide for this somewhere. I appreciate any help!
