Purple face glitch
Anyone know why this happens? I'll include a screenshot. I do have a few mods, and I can list them later if that could be the cause. Thanks =3

Are you using any mods that change faces and/or bodies? This is what usually happens when you use these without having archive invalidation on.

Purple means missing texture. You have an improperly installed mod or you're loading too many plugins.

I'll get a mod list as soon as I get back on my pc, but I do have a character changing mod, so it's probably that, sorry for keeping you guys waiting

MCM's texture pack might be the problem.
Do yourself a favor and download part 1, it might be that.
If not, Character Overhaul or NV Redesigned are possible suspects too.
Did you install them through NMM, FOMM, or manually?
Might be an installation error.

I'm installing part 1 right now. And I did them through NMM as far as I remember, any mod that could be downloaded through the manager I did that way.

Oh, then installation error is out of the suspect board.
At this point, try disabling FCO and NVR to see if it fixes the faces. Maybe loading two mods that alter faces may cause compatibility errors.
If you any more help, hit me up - I'm almost always online.

Thanks, I'll be sure to do that. If I try to disable to one face mod it crashes when I load a save using it, so I'll have to just remember an npc that had this glitch (it wasnt everyone, just a few) and start a new game. Thanks for all the help! =3

No Problem.

So I disabled the Character Overhaul, and there were still purple faces. Also I have the 1st part of the texture pack. When I try to disable to Fallout NV Redesigned, the game crashes right on launch.

That's bad.
Maybe try asking on the Nexus too. Generally people there help a lot more that people here.
Now the game crashing on launch when you disable FNV is beyond my knowledge.
Maybe you could try creating another character to see if the bug keeps going.
Why don't you try to disable both? Or maybe only FNVR? Maybe run the game without the Mod Manager, though the default launcher? Our options are really short here, to be honest.

Yeah, thanks. I have been trying through the steam launch recently and still no dice. Thanks for all your help. I'll try disabling both mods. EDIT: When I disabled both it launches, but I still have to make a new game and travel to a purple npc to see if it's still like that. The npcs will be back to looking eh I guess, but at least they wont be purple maybe.

Are you using the FCO plugins? The author of NVR recommends disabling FCO's plugins, because some conflicts could arise from that and it changes NPCs he was personally fine with. You wouldn't miss much, though, since the overhaul, while adding some neat facial textures and models, messes up some NPC faces.
How do I check if I'm usign those? And if I am, how do I disable them? Sorry I'm not super knowledgeable about this stuff. Thanks =3

In the launcher, click on Data Files, and then see if the FCO plugins are checked or unchecked.
He uses Nexus Mod Manager, so he doesn't need the default launcher.
