xtfdtf Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Every time i un-equip or equip armor the skin on my character turns extremely bright/glossy/shiny/wet, what could be causing this issue? It isn't any skin/body mods; when i disable Racemenu from MO2 the issue fixes, unfortunately by doing so it breaks character customization. Anyone know exactly what could be causing this? maybe an ENB or ini text? mod.MP4 1 Link to comment

Mick1104 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Hi, have the exact same issue you have. Not been able to fix yet, can get it to change to a wet look instead by installing EstrusForSkyrimSE_VR, still no idea why happining with racemenu active Link to comment
xtfdtf Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 still cant find a fix Link to comment
mikovic76 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I have the same issue. Each time a different preset is selected, the skin gets glossy, same with loading presets as well as equipping armor. Only the player character is affected though. 1 Link to comment
mitchdickmin Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I've been having this issue ever since I switched to SE several months ago. Happens with all bodies and skin textures, both with and without enb. Not only does the skin look like plastic, worst part is that the effect only gets applied to the body, so there's a visible seam on the neck, the wrists and the ankles. I've reinstalled all of my mods several times now (not only because of this issue) and it's been the same every single time. Already tried disabling Racemenu body overlays, didn't change anything. Didn't try without Racemenu, though. What's really strange though is that I can't seem to find any mention of this problem outside of this thread. 1 Link to comment
mitchdickmin Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Nevermind. At least for me, it's definitely the presets. I'll dig some more. Link to comment
Kristus Kringle Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Since updating skyrim + skse I've been having the glossy skin problem. I also believe it's presets but I'm using the same ones that I used before upgrading. It looks terrible, and it comes and goes. 1 Link to comment
mitchdickmin Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Don't know if this is relevant, but I've checked some of the files of the presets causing this for me and in all cases I've found references to mods (Estrus for example; there's a reference to a texture named "estrusfemalebody_d.dds" or something like that in the .jslot) that I don't use. 12 hours ago, Duncan Idaho said: Since updating skyrim + skse I've been having the glossy skin problem.

Have you tried saving a new preset and loading that? Does your skin still turn glossy? Last night I switched from Demoniac to another skin and the problem went away. I chose the non-gloss option when I installed Demoniac so I'm not sure why it was causing it and I didn't have the issue before upgrading, maybe it wasn't Demoniac at all. It's Skyrim, who knows.

mitchdickmin Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Soo... "skinOverrides" : [ { "firstPerson" : false, "slotMask" : 4, "values" : [ { "data" : "textures\\actors\\character\\female\\estrusfemalebody_1_s.dds", "index" : 7, "key" : 9, "type" : 2 } ] } ], This is what breaks presets for me. Found this in all presets that cause my body to get glossy. Deleted it. Problem's gone. 3 Link to comment
Mick1104 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Did you delete that paragraph from the preset, did it fix a existing save with issue? Do have that in a couple of my presets no idea why. thanks check see if can fix existing ones. Link to comment
Kristus Kringle Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Found one preset so far with that, thanks. Link to comment

But you can always try to open Racemenu and reload your preset (not sure if that works) or use the simple (but somehow dirty) fix and just install whatever mod is missing. If it's the estrus body specular map, you could also try to copy your normal female body specular to textures\actors\character\female\estrusfemalebody_1_s.dds. That should work. Same should apply to any other missing overlay from a preset. Link to comment

Thank you very much!!!I was getting extremely annoyed by this glossy-skin bug issue, which eventually started to corrupt my save game files.Couldn't even load most of the saves I was creating since this issue started.I was getting CTDs when attempting to load.Was going to reinstall if I didn't come across this thread.

DartVolan2077 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Hello, I have the issue too. Can you tell please, what exactly I must to do? Link to comment
lmnopqrstu Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I've been having the same problems and was able to find the lines in some of my jslots that mitchdickmin posted upthread. Removing them does stop the glossy skin and broken save issues in a new game for me, no luck rescuing existing saves. Just out of curiosity, has anyone else having this problem installed Evanescence Racemenu preset? There's a thread about this issue on the Nexus forums and it was suggested there that it might have been the initial cause, and I did have it installed. I removed it entirely just to be sure, but I'm just wondering if anyone else is using it and if there is a way to check for sure and see if that was the original culprit. Link to comment
DarthVedar Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 ScreenShot2.bmpI'm having this issue a lot. Especially orcs and elves have this glowing body. I even reinstalled all my mods. Nothing. The problem still persists. Tried removing skin textures, added new ones, nothing works. I don't even have presets installed. New game also has this issue. What do I do???? Link to comment
anjenthedog Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Do any of you happen to have BOSSE installed? If so, that would (or at least might) be the wet skin feature (ie, after being in water or when it's raining) Link to comment
xsopht Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 This problem was giving me CTDs when changing clothes and on showracemenu though that could have been a different bug. Removing the skinOverrides doesn't fix existing games, but I changed the skinOverrides section to make it point to the original texture, and saved it in new copy of the old jslot: "skinOverrides" : [ { "firstPerson" : false, "slotMask" : 4, "values" : [ { "data" : "textures\\actors\\character\\female\\femalebody_1_s.dds", "index" : 7, "key" : 9, "type" : 2 } ] } ], Loading the new preset fixes the corrupted game, including CTDs, assuming you can get into racemenu. 4 Link to comment

I was having this problem but with a male character, happens that the "data" which the file needs to be pointed to was empty, poiting the right direction fixed the bug, hope more people find this thread.

JuliusXX Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Do you have ENB installed? It has a wet skin setting and that happens during the rain and also some time after the rain, depending how it is set in the setup files. Link to comment
