I did try them, like I wrote earlier

LL is just slow as shit right now so it took me like 10 minutes to write and post that one so you managed to ninja me in the meanwhile.

the body textures work but the head textures turn the head model black.

I'm guessing that the headtints are changed in SE somehow (or the ones included in overlays are not the right format/size since SE seems to throw a fit if everything isn't up to spec while LE can usually just keep trucking) since the head overlays were provided as warpaints (as opposed to headpaint) while body ones as bodypaint. Warpaints use the vanilla tintmask system while head (and body)paints use RaceMenu's own, different system.

 

Though this conversation should be moved to the actual overlays page if you want to continue it.

I forgot to swap the warpaint textures (which are white with a black background) for new facepaint textures (grey with a transparent background) and that messed it up. They should be fine now.

Yes, they do work now, they look awesome, Flawn, thanks!

First of all this mod is fantastic regardless of me having an issue at the moment, I have been dying for a mod that makes Argonians look more like this for so many years...
Anywho, Any idea what could be causing seams at the hips and under the breasts? I'm going to poke around and try to find out myself but I figure I might as well ask someone with more knowledge of the mod or textures overlapping in general than me.

I see you're using CBBE, do you have the CBBE patch?

Just gonna edit this whole thing and blame my massive retardation for not realizing it's in the mega like the main file was, Sorry I re downloaded a lot today, Thank you for responding, I'll see if the patch helps.

[Succuboi]

It did work, Go figure right? Thank you again, I am totally loving this mod already.

Has the cbbe texture been changed? I really want to use this body texture with my cbbe body but the seams on the patch were putting me off

[Hyazu]

Still low quality image but I swear I'm doing my best to make it look less cringy as posible

 

Spoiler

 

[Hyazu]

I got a low res good one ?

[DaBigMunny]

Here's a few shots of my current Argonian, Akihota Frost-Skin, in a barrow.  I slightly modified the overlay file, as you can probably tell.

 

 

Overall, love the retexture!

 

By the way, @Nylrak, what is that mesh item your character is wearing?

[valhira]

work in progress character i made.

For some reason, I'm getting seams at the hands, groin and neck that others are not getting. I'm using a UUNP body and only Argonians have apparent seams. Any ideas as to why this might be?

Are they on the texture or the MSN map? If you can get a screenshot, it'll help more.

I don't know how to identify which of those it is. I've recently changed a few mods and apparently the hand seam is gone, but the hips and neck ones remain.

 

Apparently the hip seams disappear if I get close enough with the camera, but not the neck seams.

I see, that's an issue with the way the textures are laid out on the 2-D canvas. There are parts of the texture not used by the game and they're typically black or some darker colour. Sometime that darker area bleeds into the used texture area when you zoom out with the camera and shows up as black seam lines. (You may have seen a really bad one on the back of the head.) Some textures have a thing called "padding", where the used area of the texture is extended beyond it's bounds. I've only known about that for a little while and will be implementing that into the next update, for the skin texture and the overlays.

I see. Thanks for the swift response.

 

So, there isn't anything on my part that I might do to fix this? Maybe this shows because my game is playing on low resolution?

The black lines show up on higher resolutions too, though not as much.

If this hasn't been asked before,a patch for Evil Reflexe's SOS- Addon - Futanari CBBE SSE would be nice

I was making one, but it got pushed to the side while I was working on something else. I can finish that one for the next update.

[Voldearag]

I didn't know you'd made a Derok's Reptilian Feet patch, that is incredible I must say. Don't stop now, there's only one more, but it's going to be suicide. Would you also make a Breastless Argonian Females patch please? I would like to use them together, if possible.

I can make a patch for Breastless Argonian Females, it would be a very simple edit really.

 

On the subject of the Reptilian Feet patch, I'll probably integrate that and a few of the smaller patches into the main installer. The download page is getting too big.

Thank you. It'd probably take erasing the shadows and creases from the boob area of your texture and maybe drawing the scales smaller bigger to account for the texture being more compressed in the smaller area, I think. Drachi's textures are the only ones that really hide all the boob definition in that page's screenshots, maybe yours can too though.

Derok's Reptilian Feet are basic, but I like them the best out of what's available. Your modern 4K texture probably gives them some much needed muscle definition.

Greetings!

 

Not sure if this the right place to ask but here goes: I love this mod and it has become a staple in my Skyrim playthroughs, but I was wondering if there was any way to create or modify a custom argonian follower mod to use a different set of meshes and textures without having to create a new race? Thanks in advance!
