i would say it's the good old gray face bug, but the neck looks (sort of) fine so that can't be it.

i would say it's the good old gray face bug, but the neck looks (sort of) fine so that can't be it.

I decided to go about learning how each texture layer functions & what they

contribute. so I was using Barborous Beauty as a base. I first applied the

Common maps then Diffuse then Normals and lastly the Speculars.

I ran into seam issues all over the torso- and I learned Barborous Beauty's

Normal maps are garbage. then I went about using Textureblender by SvarogNL

to blur the lines of neck seams. on the Head drop down of Texture blender

I deselected all female races but Nord (labeled just Female) when blending Normals and I

ended up fucking all Female race faces except beasts and Nord. After a while I

figured it must be the Normal maps that got fucked up. so I went into my Mod library

and gathered the femalehead_msn and pasted it over in textures/actors/character/ImperialFemale

and in BretonFemale I pasted Normals from Fairskin complexion and I fixed it. I also had

unique Breton women with soft & smooth Fair Skin faces while my Nordic & Imperial 

women had the dimples of Barborous Beauty's normals

 

so when the body or face turns a sleek black or heavily tinted slate gray color as shown

it means the Normal maps got fucked & reinstalling any would fix the problem.

If this was last week I probably wouldve just nuked my game & reinstall it.
