This is driving me nuts !

Hi everyone !

     It's not often I zoom out so I can see my player character in 3rd person but when I did so I could actually see jagged holes in my character's armor  and I could see right through to the other side. Because I didn't know how long it had been like this it was hard for me to pinpoint what the problem is.

  My first thought was a glitch in the armor so I removed it and there were those same jagged see through parts on my torso. A couple of other smaller ones are present on the face too ?

     I removed the enb I had been using and have tried uninstalling anything that could be causing it. So far , nothing I do has helped in the slightest ! Its very frustrating :-(  I've enclosed a couple of screenies so you can see what I mean. Every armor I try on does the same thing too.

     I use the Ningheim race by the way. I can't see anything like this on any of the npc's either. Something that may be related is that I tried to choose another race and a few seem messed up , with eyes , eyebrows etc not lining up ??

   Has anyone seen anything similar or have any ideas what might be causing these problems ?

Can you link the body nif and textures your using. (i don't know where the Ningheim race keeps them)

[TheTrueMayhem]

thanks for replying so quickly !!!   Did you mean you wanted me to attach them here ? Or just mention which folder they're in ?

[Bootaka]

That's really really... yeah idk. Yes attach your texture and mesh! I really don't have a clue, but it would be awesome to be able to repeat that effect at will for that China Doll Race

[Vioxsis]

Attach, i don't have Ningheim race

[TheTrueMayhem]

here are the ningheim race meshes zipped up in a rar file. The textures for the race are 576 mb so I may just zip up the male textures if that's okay ?

[Vioxsis]

I only need to look at the male body textures.

[TheTrueMayhem]

okay , here are the male ningheim textures

[Vioxsis]

Try these nifs but Make a backup of the male body first, http://www.mediafire.com/download/jmj0jsunepvyv6i/NMbody.7z

and tell me what happens.

[TheTrueMayhem]

okay - I'll do that right now - thank you !

[TheTrueMayhem]

I just tried and it isn't any better :-(  I really appreciate you trying though !  I've attached a few new screenies with the new .nif files , including ones to show what happens when I wear armor.

[Vioxsis]

Well its not the textures and its not the meshes or what ever that BSDecalPlacementVectorExtraData was in the body nif...

 

two thing you could try,

 

1. disabling any anti aliasing you are using

 

2. check to see if your graphics card drivers are up to date.

Seems like your body meshes or textures are messed up somehow, do you have any other mods that make changes to male skeleton/meshes/textures? try to uninstalll the Ningheim mod and make sure you delete any leftover files in your Ningheim mesh/texture folder, then install the Ningheim race again.

 

You mentioned there are other problems when you switched to other races, maybe you've got some incompatible mods? I know that ECE has problems with Ningheim race and when used together with Racemenu with improper loader, weird stuffs can happen, perhaps you want to look there too.

[TheTrueMayhem]

thanks so much for the info !! I updated my graphics card driver about a month ago but there's a newer one out so I'll try that !

I turned off all anti aliasing and it had no effect.

   I'm going to have a really good look through my mods (240 ! lol !!) to see what could possibly affect the male ningheim. I did uninstall the ningheim race when I first noticed this and reinstalling it had no effect but maybe it left something behind so I'll check that too.

    I don't use ECE but I've had a few issues with racemenu before so I'll check that too.

   I really appreciate all of these helpful suggestions so I'll try everything soon and report back . I haven't played skyrim properly for about 6 weeks and I'm having withdrawals. There are so many mod upfates to catch up on :-)

Do you use an ENB? If so try disabling it and see what happens.
