FNIS Creatures Issues

[Smerg_the_Dargon]

[Didn't realize there were separate LE and SE tech support forums - my bad]

Holy hell, have I tried absolutely EVERYTHING to get FNIS working just right, and when I finally got human NPCs to stop A-posing... I realized none of the creatures had any animations. Not just no SexLab animations, no - all nonhuman creatures, from draugr to wolves, are incapable of movement. They're all stuck in their equivalent of a T/A-post. Completely uninstalling the FNIS Creature pack fixes the issue, but comes with the obvious problem of no beast animations. Everything regarding humanoids seems to be working fine.

 

Everything I've tried:

-Already sort things with LOOT constantly

-Skyrim's already on my D drive, not in Program Files.

-Reinstalled FNIS/FNIS Creature Pack (made sure it was SE)

-Totally removed MNC and Billyy's animations, heard they could cause this issue

-Ran FNIS and SKSE as administrator

-Verified cache

-Reinstalling XP32

-Way more stuff I'm too scatterbrained to remember.

 

Does anyone know any possible methods of rectifying this? I'll provide any information I can. FNIS generation log attached.

try clicking on the "deinstall creatures" button and then running fnis.

 

if that fails then one of your slal packs is bad.

As mentioned, I've tried that. It does fix creatures, but of course means there's no SexLab animations involving creatures.

I thought I tried uninstalling all my SLAL packs, but I'll try again to see if I missed something.

the deinstall creatures button that is found inside fnis?

[Smerg_the_Dargon]

I found what was causing it, but I've no clue what to do - it was SexLab's own SexlabCreatures meshes. I don't know what to do now. I guess I'll try fiddling with in game menus to see if there's some setting I missed to fix this.

[Smerg_the_Dargon]

I can't seem to find a setting anywhere in any MCM menu that fixes this issue. I'm stumped. What should I do, now that I've narrowed it to the FNIS_SexLabCreature_*_* files?

I already tried reinstalling SexLab. It didn't help.

Is there some other mod like Creature Framework that might be breaking things? I can't tell - it feels weird that, of all things, SexLab's own creature support is what's breaking things.

I have no idea of what your issue is but when I had the same symptoms the problem was with the load order. I know that you ran LOOT (so did I) but there are SPECIFIC directions for load order that come with MoreNastyCritters. I recommend looking at that, changing your order accordingly and trying again.

Alrighty then. I'll try it.

Bad news - didn't work.

Sorry, then I have no clue. In your position I would start over, make sure the base game is stable and then add things back in the order listed on MNC page.

Yeah, I've been debating whether I should just delete the whole game and reinstall. Would not be surprised if there's files from accidentally-installed LE versions of mods breaking things.

If you do reinstall, I would recommend just adding the mods you need for Sexlab with creature support so you can narrow things down. When everything looks good after testing thoroughly, then start rebuilding your game over it. Oh, and when asking for help, please include your MM, mod list and load order along with things like FNIS logs- because the logs don't tell much by themselves.
