Installing any character mods causes the "brown face" issue
Yeah, title, basically. It's also important to note that I do not have the HD texture pack installed. How do I fix this? I've never ran across this issue until the recent update.

I just said I don't have the HD texture pack but I'll give this a go anyway.
EDIT: nope, doesn't work

What's likely the cause is ether Calientes, Neck tweaks, Or looks menu. I personally got it alot after downloading Looksmenu or a tattoo mod.


One work around for it if you don't want to uninstall anything, Is to download the Cheat Menu, And then in the menu there is an option to customize your character anywheres you want. Go into the customization menu, Change the skin color of your character, then change it back, The issue will be temporarily fixed until it happens again.


If it's happening ALL the time then yeah, You're gonna have to uninstall something.

for the future ppl searching for a solution: the brown face bug is caused by improper face texture resolution. Vanilla face texture ressolution is 1k diffuse, 1k normal, 512 specular. mods who have a higher resolution like real hd faces or 2k face texture will cause the brown face bug bc the resolutions dont match anymore. so u have just 2 possible actions: use the HD DLC (and/or get the High Res DLC Black Face Fix) or dont install any face texture having a higher resolution than vanilla. same goes for makup and tattoo mods
