Fo4 - Shooting off limbs - broken

[RoyTheHeir]

Recently I installed a few mods to enhance the quality of my game, body slide, Valkyr body/face textures, and atomic surgery for certain companions, among a few other non invasive mods.

but now damage isn't working like it should, no matter what you do, limbs cannot be shot off corpses, sort of breaking immersion.

I'm wondering if there's a way to fix this, or since my mods altered the way the body meshes look/work if that's just the way it is?

Post your load order.
There are mods that change dismemberment to be more realistic.

Interesting.
I recommend disabling all of them to test out whether or not dismemberment works.
If so, enable them one at a time and retest.

gotcha, will do, I'm having a feeling it's something to do with switching from the vanilla character model, might not have the animations for detached limbs.

@RoyTheHeir -ODN:
Have you figured out what did go wrong in your game? I am encountering this issue as well very recently and the only mod I have is CBBE and bodyslider.
Quoting this user in another old thread he mention CBBE can be cause of making dismember not to work.

if you use CBBE, then dismemberment does not work on any modified body, only thing that works is head popping. Also live dismemberment is pretty good, I like the "liebemode" version, it happens rarely and you really need to get alot of shots on the same limb to dismember. Most of the time if you land all your shots and a limb pops off, the enemy only needs one more bullet to die.

However on Nexus the modification have been updated and Caliente's Beautiful Bodies Enhancer - v2.6.1-15-2-6-1 is what I mainly use integrated with BodySlide and Outfit Studio v4.7.1 these two mods aren't old at all and they were supporting dismemberment so I confused why all the sudden I can't blow F and M character's limbs or why ghouls have some limbs showing the invisible mesh.

So it's been quite a while, but I'm pretty sure it had to do with the way i was offloading the textures from the bodyslider program into the game and how i was overwriting the existing files, switching from nexus mod manager to vortex is also recommended, as it does most of the management itself.

I've since uninstalled the game but at last count I had something like 93 mods active and didn't have that issue anymore.

So this may be an issue related to texture and not the model itself? Thanks for sharing your thought I will continue to test and see how it goes. Thank you for your patience mate.
