Skin texture bug.

[DarkFire]

For some reason some of my thralls have this strange skin texture bug. Anyone else seen this, and if so know a solution? I've verified all my game files so I doubt it's a corrupted texture problem.

Are you using mods? Because I am also having a skin texture issue and I think it's in association to a specific mod. Also your screenshot is not working for me.

My bad, I had the screen shot on private only. Should be fixed now. Yes, I'm using a few mods but nothing that I thought would produce this sort of problem. Mostly stuff like IQOL, better thralls, LBPR, that sort of thing.

IQOL is the one I believe to be causing it. It only happens when you request the thrall to follow for me. and yes. That's 100% what is happening to my thralls.

The mod that appeared to be causing it for me was Female New Faces. After I disabled that mod the strange red texture bug hasn't reoccurred. I'm still getting plenty of crashes that MAY be related to appearance editing, but still need to fully test to see what mod is causing the crashing. Could just be the base game crashing.

I use IQOL and I haven't had that issue. I also tried a few older skin mods without anything like that. I did discover that the corruption effect doesn't affect my body, only my head, if I use a texture mod. I don't use any head mods or character model changes.

If I had to guess it looks like a UV map change and I've seen something similar on older armor mods that were using vanilla textures on custom meshes.

That’s strange I’m currently using the Female new Face’s mod and having no issues.

Okay. So I've pulled IQOL and the issue hasn't reoccurred. I'm not using any body replacer mods so it can't be that. I'll see if it happens again. I've messed with armor on thralls and used follow over and over and can't get it to come back up.

Very odd. In case it assists anyone my usual work flow is:

1. Place thrall after training in the wheel of pain.
2. Edit thrall using IQOL - sometimes using new faces, hair and colours from FNF.
3. Finish editing thrall.
4. Order them to follow me to start the levelling process.

The texture bug always happened at stage 4 as Koh said. That being said, now that I've removed FNF from my mods list it's no longer happening. Still using IQOL which doesn't appear to be causing that problem, at least for me.

Like EvilVictor mentioned, I bet that 3.0 introduced a new UV map as part of the corruption effect so I guess any mod that adjusts anything to do with the human model in-game is going to have to update the UV map to suit the new game version.

Looking at the IQOL discord it appears that a couple of bugs have been reported so I'm sure any issue there will be fixed. Not sure if FNF has been updated for 3.0 or not.

Issue solved - I was advised by the IQOL dev team to run the game in co-op mode (even if playing alone) rather than single player. Tried it and... bug fixed.

It's still happening on dedicated servers. It's definitely IQOL though, at least for me. I was fine, then hopped on a server with it active. When thrall is told to follow, I get the textures flickering on them. I guess it's just waiting till this gets ironed out and just dealing with it.

Send her to a dermatologist looks like a mad case of sunburn.

Well I'm running a completely vanilla game and it happened to me when a thrall bugged out in a boss fight and ended up floating underwater. Picked her up and placed her with the exact skin texture you show. Re-log sorted it, but definitely not a mod issue in this case
