Misaligned eyes but only when they're different colors (multiple mods)

[Rekuna]

Hi,

 

Interesting problem in that in some eye mods I have all work perfectly EXCEPT when they eye color for the left and right eyes are different (e.g left eye green, right eye blue). This happens with 2 separate mods that deal with different eye colors: Uchiha/Naruto overhaul and Improved eyes.

 

Given that it's two separate mods with the exact specific problem i'm clearly doing something wrong in terms of head sculpting/importing (I don't believe it happens with vanilla heads). But what is odd is that matching color eyes work without any problem. Below is an example:

Eye textures as far a I know only contain the color for one iris, so the issue is elsewhere. I had a quick look through headparts in xEdit, and it seems these files are involved in the vanilla half-blind eyes:

 

Actors\Character\Character Assets\FaceParts\EyesMaleLeft.nif
Actors\Character\Character Assets\FaceParts\EyesMaleLeft.tri
Actors\Character\Character Assets\FaceParts\EyesMaleLeftChargen.tri

 

I'd start with those.

1. Any mod overriding them?
2. Are these problematic mods using their own nif and tri files to achieve this?
3. What happens if you replace them with vanilla files?

 

Edit: Presumably since those are called EyesMale* there may also be EyesFemale*. Common sense.
