HDT Physics Extensions (possible) Bug

[varulv]

Greetings!!!

 

... hopefully this is the right section ...

 

oh my, first post and I'm already asking for help, feeling bad, but seeing how this community is filled with awesome people -- hopefully someone can help. Followed the guide that the lovely @Anatriax made to the letter, everything seems to be working fine, except that I don't get overwrite files to copy anywhere after I build my body, they instead get written.. somewhere, automatically in the Skyrim (modded by MO) folder, vanilla Skyrim folder seems clean, so wherever they go, it's the right place probably. I had to set the path to /data in the options of slider manually, was getting an error otherwise. So, like I said, files go somewhere, and it's the right place, since the new body works in-game. However, I'm experiencing a weird glitch, with the character in 3rd person and while opening the inventory/spells menu I notice the body change slightly, breasts get bigger, buttocks as well, then they revert back to 'normal' when I close said menu. Is anyone else experiencing this, is it a common glitch or have I done something wrong? HDT Physics version is 14.28, by the way. Let me know if you need more info.

 

EDIT: And I did a search before making this thread, someone else had a similar problem and posted it here, another person replied saying that it had to do with the skeleton, he had xp32 not the extended version. I have the extended.

You can try loading HDT files after the skeleton see if anything changes. I never had this problem although it might have to do with bodies or messed up xml file for physics.

Yes!! How didn't I think of this? Great idea, I actually had a backup of my older MO left-pane mod order, restored that and I don't get this anymore. I think the guide that Anatriax made is missing the load order section, since I remember reading about certain mods "We'll get into load order in a minute", but I can't recall seeing a load order section, and I assume that load/install order for things that have to do with the skeleton/animations etc. need a very specific one, otherwise things get screwed. 

 

Also, I just read about HDT High Heels, some people reporting issues, messed up saves, glitches.. this is unfortunate, I wonder if we have an alternative.
