PoeticAnt44 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 I really hope someone can help. I seem to have problems no one can figure out lol. Anyway, I mod NPCs for the game. I was creating some presets to export their head nifs so I can mod them, but for some reason RaceMenu isn't exporting the nif. It only exports the tintmask. I even tried the Export FaceGen Mod, but it has the same effect. No matter what I do, I cannot export the nif... only the texture. Does anyone have any insight into this? Thanks!

saurusmaximus Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Are you using the latest version of RM? If you go into your \SKSE\Plugins folder there should be a file called skee64.ini. Inside that file there should be a line: bEnableHeadExport=1 <-make sure it is set to "1" If all of that checks out, see if you are having some weird permissions issue with your Data folder.

PoeticAnt44 Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Hey, thanks for replying. I checked that per your recommendation, but everything looks to be in order. How do I check out 'weird permissions' in my data folder? I thought it was some big problem and I ended up doing a clean install and loaded my mods again, but it's still doing it. Edit: I was having trouble getting Alternate Start to work... get Mara to give me my options, but it wasn't working. I have a mod conflict under 'body, face' mods because I uninstalled all of them and Mara works. I decided to try my hand at the exporting head thing and sure enough it works. Now I just have to find which one is giving me problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saurusmaximus Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Forget the permissions thing, it sounds like you are making progress and it was a long shot anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoeticAnt44 Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Thanks for your help :smile:. I'm not sure I got it fixed per se. It wasn't a mod either. When I turned my mods back on, it worked fine when I returned to my old save. I'm having some issue where you have the save and saved image as "img" and it says save is corrupted. I'm not sure why it keeps doing that to me, especially after doing a clean install, which was another reason for the clean install. But once I reload my save, it's fine and I can export the head. That's the most important right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saurusmaximus Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I'm having some issue where you have the save and saved image as "img" and it says save is corruptedI"m not sure what you mean by that. What 'image' are you trying to save? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoeticAnt44 Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 Sorry, I'm terrible at describing things. I really want to post an image, but no matter where I'm going, this forum isn't allowing, so I can't show you. What I mean is when I'm in RaceMenu and I exit, I save my game. When I load the save, instead of seeing the image that goes with the save (image of my last location), the image is in rainbow that has the words "IMG" on it. Then the save says it's corrupt. When I exit the game, I can load that same save back up and it's fine. This happens every time I use the blacksmith, alchemy or racemenu. I think because it does this with the racemenu is why I'm having the .nif problems. I don't know what to do now. I did a clean install and it's still doing it. I really wish I could post an image. I can't even send you a link to the image. Strange. I can probably PM it to you, but this site won't let me post with images using Imgur or Flickr.

saurusmaximus Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 That's weird, I've posted links to Imgur on here in the past, but I think I get what you are saying now. I just now looked at your forum profile, and you've obviously been able to do this successfully before (nice work, BTW), did you make any changes to your load order prior to this happening; add/remove/update a mod? Maybe change your load order around (i.e.; sort with LOOT)? Edit: I don't know how you normally do things but have you tried making a profile in your mod manager for just character editing ie; just hair, eye and skin models along with race menu, to see if that would work better?

PoeticAnt44 Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 Thanks! Yes, everything worked until recently. The last time I exported was on the 2nd of Dec. I only downloaded three mods at that point: one a town expansion with two patches. I thought maybe I should start a new game, but all the problems persist regardless despite removing them. Now that I did a clean install, all my presets that I need to make NPCs are ruined. Frustrating, but not the end of the world. At least I'm almost done overhauling the men. "I don't know how you normally do things but have you tried making a profile in your mod manager for just character editing ie; just hair, eye and skin models along with race menu, to see if that would work better?" I'm not sure what you mean about profile in my MM. I use Vortex. About the image. I know... I've been able to post images before. It's so weird. I can still post images in PM. Let me try again. YES! It worked. I used image from PM instead of my image site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
