Settlers look like Nightmare version of Joker

[Reginald_001]

Does anyone know what the underlying cause is of this issue?

I added my own mod, to override the outfits of settlers with EasyGirl outfits I created.

It worked for a couple of saves/loads.. but suddenly about a third of my settlers come out looking like this abomination:

 

 

This started when I tried the 'SettlersFaceFix' mod, which was supposed to remove the smudges from faces.

So I disabled that mod, but the bug persists now.. Is it my save that's been corrupted?

 

I have a workaround: SLM the settler, choose a default face, and it gets fixed.

But then... after some fast travelling my settlers turn INVISIBLE. And I can only select them in workshop mode (because this outlines them).

I then see parts of the INVISIBLE model STRETCHED to a point far in the horizon.

 

 

Then the only fix is to disable the settler and spawn a new one.

download a copy of FO4Edit - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/2737

 

load all of your mods using FO4Edit

 

have a look at SettlersFaceFix.esp/l NPC's and check out the Face morphs (at the bottom of the list)

I would imagine it would be under 000188B0 Eyes and look at the values if they are high then change them

such as -21 to -0.21

 

and this should work assuming that this is the problem

and I have no idea how many you will have to change

mutated settlers.  Well that mod did fix the face just not in a positive way.

Yeah that's the first thing I did. I actually restored most of them to default.

But it didn't fix the issue, even after loading/saving/fast travel/etc..

 

Then I disabled the mod. Same thing happened.

Somehow my savegame had gotten corrupted. So I've kept the mod disabled and I started a new game and the issue is gone. It was early on so I didn't mind.
