My mod changes some of the colour combo during the game, as SetRace doesn't do it all.Īll the body replacers use the same base shade for the texture, so the addition of the tints will match the head mesh. These include a number of additional colour adjustments that don't get baked into the export, so they can be swapped out if the character becomes a vampire, for example. The hair in the mesh has a default colour, which is replaced/modified by the one in the actor form, and other parts also work the same. The actor form contains a number of things that are added to the mesh/texture, such as the hair colour. It may not use texture paths that will work in-game, as it was intended for use inside RM.

RM does the same, but writes to a different location. You have to use both together, because they're linked, but The background hue is also used to adjust the body texture, so that it matches the head. The exported texture is mapped to the head (and gets combined with the base grey texture you see if it's missing) so it provides complexion, eyebrows, lip shade etc. The nif blocks that specify texture detail refer to Worth trying first I suppose.Ctrl+F4 exports head mesh with all morphs baked in, and head part meshes (hair etc.) Open one up with NifSkope and check. Yes so it turns out in my sleep deprived state that i wasted two hours trying to export facegen data when there was a patch for one of my mods i needed.


If not just the characters face texture (being grey/black in this case) but their shape is not what it should be (child with an adult head), you can be certain a mod conflict is causing it. Not sure if its technically corruption, but apparently opening Skyrim in CK and exporting ALL the character facegens has worked for some people.ģ) Mod conflicts. (Then hit save) This did fix the issue with those NPCs for me.Ģ) Slightly corrupt game files. I had to open both mods in CK (with GMO being the active mod) and find the 'actor' faces affected by the black face bug, and CTRL+F4 to export them. These can be hair edits to any NPC, but most often this occurs on mods that add hair to NPCs from another mods, such as GMO (Guild Members Overhaul). Originally posted by Sabaithal:The grey/black face bug is caused by any number of things.ġ) Hair edits.
