Broke CBBE

[llloyd]

Now this is going to sound insane, but, bear with for a moment. >.< So, in an effort to reduce the crazy load times I was experiencing I reinstalled Fallout 4 and my mods, cleaned up a whole mixed mess of old stuff being left behind when old mods got uninstalled and updated, and fixed file ownership problems I didn't know existed but should have.

 

 

Umm, as an aside, a few years ago when I updated to a Ryzen 1700x I had to update to Win 10 and I never wiped and reinstalled Steam, just started to use the executable and the existing game data so... Everything was owned by the PID of my Win 7 account not the new Win 10 account. Was a matter of just going in and grabbing ownership in /Steam, adding me to the security tab with full control, and tell it to apply to all including 'children'.

 

 

Anyway... Since I was advised here to pack up textures into ba2 files to help reduce load time, since it takes longer to load loose files than a ba2 (and it has helped quite a bit) when I told NMM to reinstall each mod I stopped and checked ../Data and if a mod installed textures or meshes I paused, packed those up into a BA2 and named it the mod's esp name with - Textures (for DDS BA2s from the ../Texture folder ) or - Meshes (for General BA2s from the ../Meshes folder) . So because of that I have a CBBE - Textures.BA2 and CBBE - Meshes.BA2 , along with the CBBE.ESP and CBBE - Main.BA2 that CBBE itself installs, as CBBE installs a *tonne* of meshes. Well, I was just playing a bit tonight when I went to swap outfits I noticed that CBBE isn't working at all, my female character has the default FO4 body, not the CBBE body. Now theoretically, and this is just how I understand it, it should be working, no ?

Update: Yeap, if I extract the 200mb, 780 ish odd files in 110 ish odd directories it mostly fixes it, boobs seem a bit flat still but the body looks a lot better shape wise. Freaky weird. O.o At a wild guess BA2 don't override vanilla ?
