Skyrim Modding - Some NPCs only have hands, feet and heads

[Vi-El]

I recently got a new PC and had to redownloaded some mods. I got a small list of them down and now began a new playthrough and all of the sudden some NPCs are missing their overall bodyparts and only kept feet, hands and heads. I however suspect that the feet and hands are still there due to Immerisve armors as when I disabled it to test, they also disapeared.

The NPCs I saw thus far are "Irileth" missing literally everything apart from the aforementioned. And a small side NPC added by the "Holds" mod.

This is my loadorder. If anyone knows what this is about, please tell me cause I dont know anymore.

Just to make sure, did you remove any mods after you started a new game? Usually this happens because the game can't find the outfit the NPC was wearing.

[Vi-El]

Did not remove any. I did a small testrun of a vanilla game as I wanted to see how it runs on the new PC and then began adding mods, testing them on the vanilla game. After I added all the mods I then went on to start a new game and that is where I am right now, just after heading into whiterun and talking to the Jarl, first time.

This is when I saw the missing bodies and since then I did remove I think one mod only however testing it myself, did not seem to change anything to the actual problem.

The mod in question was "Enhanced character edit".

[Uncle64]

Add Usleep and run LOOT on that loadorder.

You also have UNP mods installed, do you know what type of body you use?

[Vi-El]

Actually Id like to keep Usleep out of the modlist for this time if possible. If you say it aint, well then thats a different issue.

I do have UNP BASE Main body V1dot2 installed. No idea why it doesnt show up in the loadorder

[Vi-El]

Update:
- Added Usleep (No change)
- Switched from UNP to CBBE and made a new game for testing (Bug still occurs)
- After disabling a few mods it turns out Irileth wears no armor at all and neither does the random NPC

The mods that actually make their bodies appear again have nothing in common however. Plus there seems to be some overall issue with the compatibility of all the mods present. So in order to save us all the time and headache ima just write down all the mods I installed without the loadorder that doesnt seem to include some of the mods weirdly enough.

Mind you this isnt my loadorder. This is only the mods I use. The loadorder is handled by LOOT so everything should be ok in that case.

What mod manager do you use?

The Modorganizer
Have been using it before as well on my old pc with no issues apart from crashes. Likely due to the pc though lol

[Vi-El]

Thinking about it, I have been installing the mods onto modorganizer manually. Could that be it?

The program wont let me login to Nexus and wont let me download directly. And the second version of it just flat out tells me the mod I am trying to add cant be downloaded

[Uncle64]

If you did use MO did you also sort your left side?
Since it is important, and your issue indicates that you have one conflict there.

You mean the main modlist? Like where you enable and disable them correct?
That could be however does it truly make a difference when the loadorder is ok?

Subscribed.

I am always installing mods manually to MO. That isn't the issue.

You might be using the old version of MO. Nexus login was changed for EU GDRP. Mod Organizer 2 and Mod Organizer Legacy (which is the updated version of old MO 1.x) are updated to new login.

Yes, it does. Left panel handles resource priorities. This is the order for meshes, textures, scripts, animation files (etc.) resources. It needs to be sorted as well for MO. Load order only manages records, not resources.

It is the strenght of MO. However, also the tedious part.

[Vi-El]

How do I put it, this then is the actual priority based order. Granted, looking at CBBE this could easily be switched out with UNP again as this doesnt seem to be the issue. Just that I have no idea what is the more important mod before the next.

[Uncle64]

As Ilja did say.
It is one reason we ask what modding tool people have used.

[Ilja]

If so, then that is messed up. Sort the left panle to match with (main plugin files) in right hand panel. See if that solves the issue.

USLEEP alone should be loading right below official DLC files.
