Tattoo colour being over-ridden?

[Asakti]

I posted this on the mod page, but given the last update, I doubt it will get a response. This is a minor inconvenience, but I'd still like to try and get it sorted. I have downloaded a mod for Sigrun - but the tattoo on her cheek (the commoner tattoo) appears to be blank? Which is causing her forehead tattoo (which runs through it) to appear shiny/sparkly. See here:

 

I've checked the mod requirements and they are all installed:

 

Pineappletrees Vibrant Colours: http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=153
New Skins DAO by ViLiSSa: http://www.nexusmods.com/dragonage/mods/3781/?
Requirement Tex from this mod
Platinum Blonde by danexuslurker http://www.nexusmods.com/dragonage/mods/3662
Tucked hair: http://social.bioware.com/project/2595/

 

I assume that something else is over-ridding the colour for that tattoo - but is there a way of figuring out what ...tint that tattoo would be so I can find it in my mod folder?

 

Thanks in advance :)

Hmm... if you click on the Requirements tab at the top of the mod description, there are actually 30+ required mods listed...

 

Maybe grab the mod "More CC tatto colors", seeing as you didn't list it?

 

As for whether there's something else overriding the mod, do you have any other mods that modify morphs/facial features?

Those cannot be the requirement mods for that morph. 'Platinum Blonde' adds a very light blonde hair tint, and that hairstyle is not from 'tucked hair'.

 

According the the text file on the Dl page that lists the requirements for each morph, the required mods for the Sigrun 'Lore' morph (which is what you appear to have installed) are

 

SIGRUN

The mods you've listed as those you installed are for the Velanna morph in the same package.

Thanks for the investigation by the both of you - I did mix up and copy/paste the wrong requirements...but still haven't managed to fix my problem.

 

I have got the correct requirements installed, but the error is still happening.

 

So, today - I pulled out all other mods (just to see if there was a compatibility/over-ride thing happening), and just left the requirements and morph in...still have the same issue.

 

...clearly I am missing something - so I looked through the general requirements and installed any that have tattoo colours (as I assume that's what it is?) and that hasn't fixed it. So, I'm drawing a blank at this point.

I looked into this - installed required mods, removed everything else, etc. - same problem. At this point I'm thinking it's the mod that's missing something. I mean, if you look at the screenshot for Sigrun on the mod page, her tattoos look weird. Like the colors were painted on with an editor or something.

 

Either the mod is missing something, or there is something else the author didn't mention.

Thanks DLuf, at least it isn't just me :laugh: Though I am sure I used this mod last time I played DAO (which, admittedly...was some time ago) and it was fine (I just think the hair is cute for Sigrun).

I have downloaded all of the reqs from the main page (even platinum hair, lol).

 

I think the issue is layered tattoos - the one that is missing is one of the base commoner tattoos - which is still there (tried to do the Dwarf Commoner origin - you can pick the tattoo that is missing on Sigrun). The tattoo that shows up on her morph is that Warden tattoo from the trailer (I think?) - so its almost like the dwarf commoner tattoo has been added as something else?

 

I might just have to dump the morph its annoying that I can't fix it but I'm at a loss.

Try these two files:

Pick one of them and replace the one that comes with the mod in Companion_lore.

You are a super-star, DLuf! :happy: :happy: :happy:

...except now its time to go to bed...so I guess I can at least progress on DA:A tomorrow - thanks heaps!
