Blue Faces?
Ive tried wiping out my mod list, fresh install, I dont get it.
Im assuming a mod changed something but even without mods im stuck with NPC's having blue faces.
Anyone know a fix? please and thank you :lunar2019piginablanket:

Edit: Like blue as in the textures wont load and its a huge error. Companion characters are fine, Durge is fine, its just standard TAV heads 1-6 and random NPC heads

clearing out mods might not be the answer, if they did change something, you might have to do a full uninstall, go to the location in your files, delete any Leftover files, clean reinstall, and then verify file integrity. (Note, try the file integrity first)

Will do! Thanks, mang

Good luck! I'm hoping its a simple fix, that a mod simply overwrote something, which when removing the mod doesn't replace what was removed, and the verify thing should work.

If that doesn't, and a clean overhaul doesn't, might be a graphic driver/graphic card issue, hopefully not tho!

That is simple to check by them sharing screenshots.

Im just redownloading so I cant now. After verifying I hit the main menu and seen one of the guys in the background walking down the stairs of the Baal temple had a bright blue face.

Edit: Have this screenshot to tide you over until it downloads. Hopefully the problems gone

As long as you did a clean uninstall as described here
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3165940575
that reinstall should definitely set it back to vanilla state of the game

You are the man! Im going through my existing modfolder (didnt do the clean uninstall, didnt know guide existed ;'c) and im pretty sure I know what mod did it. Faces of Ferun (? something like that?)

At least I hope thats it... If not ill do the clean uninstall and try again. I had like 4 face mods but they said they only added to the CC as new assets, not overwriting existing so I dont get why NPC's would be affected all of a sudden.

Thanks again, guys.

Im on fresh install #3 and still have no idea whats doing it >.< Im going to try NOT installing any makeup mods now. I stopped adding new races, any face mod, anything that can be remotely connected to faces. I didnt think makeup would alter the base game textures for default faces >.< I thought it would of been an overlay of some kind.
Faptor Nov 10, 2024 @ 10:45pm 
Good god. If anyone has any insight as to what specific mods would be doing this I would forever be in your debt if you told me. id name all my children after you, tattoo your name and avatar on my forehead, sing your wisdom and glory from every rooftop etc etc

Im using the built in MM so maybe thats the thing that keeps overing the face textures?

I do not care enough about mods issues to know which mod does which issue. But You can have these tips
https://steamcommunity.com/app/1086940/discussions/0/4696782945526623592/

Why they are good? After a clean uninstall according to the guide, and a clean reinstall, you can use the tip to avoid reinstalling in the future by making a backup as described and whenever such an issue happens it takes less than half a minute to check by using folders and renaming them.

I FOUND IT. It was a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ MAKEUP mod. I read the description and noticed it said "This removes the option for NO makeup"
OMFG lol If anyone reads this in the future, don't be a blithering ♥♥♥♥♥♥ like myself. Read every description TO COMPLETION. Yes, even the fine print... Especially the fine print. If you think you are good, re-read (REEEEEEE-read) several more times just to make sure you fully understand the ramifications of installing a cosmetic mod.

Seriously, from the bottom of my heart. Thank you アンジェル for suggesting make up mods.
God bless you, God bless your family. I pray that you/your family are happy and prosperous for 10,000 years.
Thank you for the clean install/uninstall guide also.

Don't be so hard on yourself. We've all done that kind of thing at one time or another.
