Bijin Npcs Neck Seam
Hello all so im having this issue that head color is different than body color. I tried to fix the neck seam with setnpcweight but with no luck. I dont have this issue with Warmaidens or Wives only with this one in particular. Even with no bodies and clothes mod installed im having this issue and i really dont know what to do to fix this. Any help with this please ..

Bijin can be difficult. Yet it seems and really is easy. When you think you did everything right you see the problem and can't understand why. I remember that feeling all too well. Bottom line something went wrong during installation. You have to remove everything and start Bijin install over.

Proceed slowly step by step with the Bijin instructions right in front of you because there is no better walkthrough than that because that one is 100% correct but you can't miss a step. So if you think you understand it and have this problem then you need to read it again. Like I said I know the feeling first hand and have seen many many people having issues. But it's a very popular mod.

Yep sometimes i start to lose my sanity trying to figure it out what is wrong but i still want to use it cause its a great mod. Well i installed Bijin separately and not the all in one plugin and i dont know if is that the cause.

You absolutely need the AIO
last step is to disable the other esp's

Read the mod page slowly and please do not skip a step.

and yes it is a great mod, a staple in all my load orders.

that's a common problem with Bijin if not using AIO and not installing properly, and even if you removed Bijin there can be lingering effects. But in your last post you told me you reinstalled without AIO. I understand it's a bit more work but you really should use AIO as your problem is common Without it.

Start over from scratch and reinstall Bijim properly.

Bijin IMO is the Best NPC Overhaul for SSE - but you must install it correctly - it's worth it!

The answer to the head color and neck seam problem with Bijin, my dear friends, is RIGHT ON THE INDIVIDUAL MODS' DESCRIPTION PAGES (Warmaidens, NPCs, Wives).

Scroll down to the section titled: [Solutions to problems]

Does no one bother to read?

it's not a seam problem smr, it's a color mismatch. I mean I understand where there is color mis match there is a line of sorts if you will, but this is not the typical "neckseam" issue as we all know it. And this is a known problem if you do not perform all steps to the letter.

[Solutions to problems]
Spoiler: Show

If the character's face gets black or dark
・Check the load order(Use LOOT or move their esp to the bottom manually).
・Reinstall by overwriting all.
・Check the Mods related to these characters.
・Check the load order between EEO(Ethereal Elven Overhaul) if you use it and Irileth face is having any problem.


Again - EVERYTHING needs to be read. The answers were (and are) right there

I appreciate the help but like Vlad said is clearly a color mismatch. By the way i tried everything and even installed the AIO correctly but didnt worked sadly. I tried to reinstall and everything i could do really and seems like i cant fix it. Perhaps ill try to live it with it lol

i did and i was using mythical ENB with Mythical ages. I turned off ENB but again didnt worked as well. :steamsad:
Vlad 254 May 10, 2020 @ 4:00pm 
did you go into skyrimprefs.ini under Display and set bSAOEnable=0

or if using bethini can do it there

and when you turned off your enb did you go into your enb helper settings under enb series
EnableAmbientOcclusion=false (should be set when enb is enabled as well)

Yes all of it and still nothing. And belive me or not today i installed legendary edition and i have the same issue! Is something related to my computer? Some config or something idk
Vlad 254 May 10, 2020 @ 5:46pm 
I did notice some greenish tint like issues just below the neck.

So once you absolutely eliminate everything else sure, it can also be lighting can be monitor or monitor settings. The issue in that area of the neck is a small issue but I agree I'd want it fixed. However since it is small you also want to not make it worse and you do want to (here's a novel idea) play the dang game lol.
