Jael de-Vraevi follower hair problem

[Arthenon]

I downloaded Jael de-Vraevi follower over at the Elder Scrolls General and she's got the purple hair problem. I found what I thought were typos for her hair and fixed them but I'm still getting the hair problem. Jael uses the lovelyhair styles. Can someone take a look at this follower and see what I'm missing?

 

I was looking at the meshes folder and found lovelyhair02a.nif which I thought was the typo because in the esp, the Head Part says lovelyhair02aa. I'm using TES5Edit.

 

TIA,

there are 2 NIF files that have to be edited

 

1 the hair nif that is by itself

in folder  Jael de-Vraevi Follower\Data\meshes\actors\character\character assets\hair\

 

2  the head nif that also has the hair

in folder Jael de-Vraevi Follower\Data\meshes\actors\character\FaceGenData\FaceGeom\Jael deVraevi Follower.esp\

 

they need to be edited in NifSkope

the mesh is pointing to the wrong texture file

 

did you edit both ?

[Arthenon]

Thanks for the reply and I only edited the second one using TES5Edit. I changed the .esp over to lovelyhair02a.nif instead of the original that had two aa. What needs to be changed with the nif file?

I dont know if you have used NifSkope before so Im gone be very detailed.

if you have used Nifskope alot ...Sorry

 

open up the lovelyhair02a.nif file with Nifskope

click on the hair mesh and you will see in the left box NiTriShape will become highlighted.

(in the left box) click on the little arrow that is at the highlighted NiTriShape.

you will then see the BSLightingShaderProperties click on its arrow.

now we are able to see the BSShadertextureset.

click on the word BSShadertextureSet and in the botton you can see Textures at the very bottom.

click on the arrow infront of Textures

now you can see the hairs texture path that needs to be changed.

 

 

right now the path is textures\actors\character\hair\lovelyv1.dds

and needs to be changed to

textures\actors\character\hair\lovely02.dds

 

you can do that by right clicking in the box where is says textures\actors\character\hair\lovelyv1.dds

then go to Texture Choose and click on choose

then you just have to go to the right texture and select it.

after that correct the 2nd texture path 

then save the file.

 

then go to the other Nif thats in FaceGen folder and fix it the same way

 

NifSkope Download page in case you dont have it yet

http://niftools.sourceforge.net/wiki/NifSkope

 

 

OR I guess you can just change the names of the hair texture file

from

lovely02.dds to lovelyv1.dds

and

lovely02_n.dds to lovelyv1_n.dds

 

OR #2

here are the corrected meshes ( they "should" work )

meshes.7z

Thank you!

 

I was able to fix the 1st nif per your instructions. The 2nd nif was already showing the correct dds files but when in game Jael's hair was still messed up. So I downloaded your file and that fixed it.

 

Again thank you,

Can one of the moderators put a post in the locked topic over at Skyrim Adult Mods that points to this topic? Seems quite a few people have looked at it.

 

Thanks,
