Yes so it turns out in my sleep deprived state that i wasted two hours trying to export facegen data when there was a patch for one of my mods i needed. If not just the characters face texture (being grey/black in this case) but their shape is not what it should be (child with an adult head), you can be certain a mod conflict is causing it. Not sure if its technically corruption, but apparently opening Skyrim in CK and exporting ALL the character facegens has worked for some people.ģ) Mod conflicts. While in an active game open the game console, hitting on the Tilde key (looks like this, usually upper left keyboard ) click on affected npc and type.1 answer Top answer: God, I haven’t modded for several years, but I’ll take a wack at explaining this. (Then hit save) This did fix the issue with those NPCs for me.Ģ) Slightly corrupt game files.
I had to open both mods in CK (with GMO being the active mod) and find the 'actor' faces affected by the black face bug, and CTRL+F4 to export them. These can be hair edits to any NPC, but most often this occurs on mods that add hair to NPCs from another mods, such as GMO (Guild Members Overhaul). Originally posted by Sabaithal:The grey/black face bug is caused by any number of things.ġ) Hair edits.
