DimosZargarda Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Hey guys, im having some trouble with the female NPC having a darker head than the body, check the screen. First I thought its a mod causing it, so I uninstalled all body and face mods, I went to meshes/actors/character and so on to remove any folder that would edit the face/body, did the same thing in the texture folder, still the mismatch is visible. On the screens you can see the CBBE body with Pretty Face mod, those 2 should go together well, still the mismatch, also checked for some esps that could cause it but there were none that edited any character appearence. Now ive been trying lots of other combos but always the same damm problem, so does anyone have a clue how I can fix this? http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/6974/screenshot1625.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakakita Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 (edited) You're prettymuch SOL unless you want to learn to use Caliente's texture-blender, or switch texture sets entirely. Edited November 11, 2012 by nakakita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimosZargarda Posted November 11, 2012 Author Share Posted November 11, 2012 I would just like to see where the problem is, you see it doesnt metter which body or face mod I use, the problem is always there, even when I dont use any at all with a clean meshes/textures actor folder.

nakakita Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 The problem is roughly this: The textures for the faces and the bodies are slightly different shades. It doesn't look so obvious when you're staring at the dds files, but it becomes obvious in game. The only way I've ever managed to remedy this is by using a specific texture set, (as I couldn't get the texture blender to work for the body I was using) but lighting can skew that and make the seams appear anyway.

Rabbit1251 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I will admit that I don't know anything about fixing this, but I've picked up a few suggestions from the forums. Don't ask me for help as I'm just repeating someone else's instructions. This one looks like the least complicated: "In game, make a note of the NPCs name Locate the mod(s) which provide the custom NPC(s) Load one of the mods into the Creation Kit In the Object Window go to Actors - Actor In the right hand side, click on the column header called Name to sort the entries by name Scroll down till you find the NPC in question. Highlight their entry then press the key combo CTRL+F4 A box will pop up asking if you want to export face gen data, agree to do so Another box will pop up saying that it is done. Exit the Creation Kit without saving. Go back into the game and check out that NPC Skintone should be correct. Repeat for all other NPCs" I hope that sombody can get some help from all of this.

DimosZargarda Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Hey Rabbit, it sure may help some others but for me every NPC has the problem, so doing it for every female NPC in game would be too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regrettably all of the tips that I have gathered have to do with modded NPC's. I'm sorry. Rabbit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
