DarkWing241 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I've been having an issue with my boots mod. Two of the newer boots I added (there are like 20 in total) show up with solid black textures. My research tells me that black textures (not pink missing textures) usually come from VRAM issues, but I don't think this is the the issue as I have a very powerful GPU. I also have had users the same issue with the boots (so probably not my system). When I load a game with the offending boots already equipped the textures hows up fine. If I switch boots and then switch back they go black. quicksave/quickload also does not fix the problem, only first time loads get the textures to show. Any idea's what could cause this? bslightingshaderproperty check boxes are the part I usually mess up but the offending boots match the working ones. Flipped/inside out mesh from 3dsmax? I've done that before but the problems didn't look exactly the same (darker textures then, these are black). Vortex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perraine Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 My guess would be the VRAM issue, but not so much a "lack of" but a "busy" or "full up" issue. The fact that they load "first time" but don't load on subsequent equips, suggests that the game engine is struggling to "swap out" the textures in memory. What resolution are your textures? And what compression are you using to save them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have SMIM but thats models not textures, Pure waters, a moderate skin texture and some make/freckle/warpaint overlay type stuff. All the testing is done in the Live another life dungeon. All of the textures used on the boots at taken from the default skyrim textures. I also tested packaging the default textures with the mod as well as just referencing their default install locations (to allow for custom textures). It made no difference, the ones that worked still work the ones that go black still go black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkWing241 Posted September 20, 2019 Author Share Posted September 20, 2019 s Which game?legendary editionThe legendary edition of which game? Sorry, Skyrim legendary edition I have been experimenting with minimal load orders and the problem persists, which I believe eliminates VRAM issues as he culprit. As now its stock skyrim on an 1080ti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
