Alter existing NPC issue

[imbrium2]

Ok so here's the deal. I'm attempting to change the appearance slightly to Aela, Vilkas, Farkas, and Brynjolf. Now Brynjolf I was able to change without a problem. The rest on the other hand, are being impossible. First of all, when I look at any NPC in the creation kit I am unable to see the warpaint, and lip color. For some reason its non existent, even if I try to change the color. Another issue is when I try to change these NPCs, the changes won't take effect in game. I managed to get Aela to work with the ctrl f4, but her warpaint disappears. This is very frustrating and I'm wondering if anyone has a solution.

 

 

*Edit: Nevermind, I finally figured it out.

How'd you get it to work?

I pulled out every texture that altered faces and bodies in any way, (easiest to do is grab the character folder and drag it to your desktop.) I then opened the creation kit and started a new file. I tweaked the npc to my liking and saved. Dragged the character folder back to where it belongs, started the game up and voila! It works! Edited September 17, 2012 by imbrium2
