solved issue Overlays not visible on HGFeet

[modball]

I've been struggling with this issue for a bit and figure maybe someone here can help.

 

Compared the HGFeet nifs to other working UUNP meshes, made a few edits to shader properties to match (most were identical) and all textures are the same.

 

When I initially load a save, the gloss is often not present but if I open Racemenu and close with no edits, the gloss overlay shows up but the freckles, no matter which option (dense, regular, etc.) are not visible. The body hands and face have no such issues.

 

Spoiler

 

Anyone have suggestions on what parameters in NifSkope I should be checking/editing or what else could be causing this?

I guess I am the only one having this issue. Funny enough, overlays work on the equip-able HGtoes included with this mod, but not on the feet in character assests:

 

I tried adjusting the glossiness and specular strength in NifSkope but matching them didn't make a difference.

Thanks @theru but the solution was a bit different than what that tool can do, from what I could tell. Took awhile but I finally figured this out.

 

I realized the overlays were showing up on the toenails and found that the NiTriShape order in HGFeet has CFeetNails at the top:

 

 

I tried to reorder it in NifSkope but could not get that to work, so I changed it in Outfit Studio putting HGFeet on Top:

 

 

Now the overlays show up on the Feet but not the nails:

 

 

which is fine for freckles, tattoos etc.
