Not in place ????? A screenshot or better discription please.

Maybe archive invalidate not set ? And the game still use the vanilla body, or it use Roberts body but with vanilla textures.

If you check the comments section, you'll see similar complaints of two different types of textures. Might be unsolvable.

 

I'd go for a different mod.

 

Like this one, say?

Yes, sadly the race mod i use needs this so i am going to try figure it out

 

[DogOnPorch]

Looked at the mod...at least BSAs are easy to remove.

 

Take Dog's advice...toss it. The problem with any advanced mod...especially races...is that you and the author will likely have wildly differing Oblivion installs. There's no guarantee that you can reproduce Natural Skin's in-game look.

You might have to settle for the look you get unless you want to unpack the BSA and try some different body textures...and that takes some NifSkope knowledge.

Haha yeah, I cant do that TT

I have no idea how

Yeah...it's not that hard...but, you know...another thing to learn.

 

I've been here since 2011...still learning new tricks. But this is certainly the place TO learn.

 

If you install Nifskope, you can open the .nif file extension and play with the textures. If you get that far...myself and others can show you how to properly. 

 

What are you after exactly? You can PM me if you'd rather not say on the forum. Perhaps there's another solution...or even a better one.

...and since you'll need to unpack BSA files in order to do this...you'll need BSA Commander

Another thing to learn...lol.

 

Isn't modding fun...yet?

It's the ONLY way to get the results you REALLY want.

What exactly do you want? 

[DogOnPorch]

BSA commander...simply unpacks BSAs into their component files & folders. From there you can replace textures you don't like with new ones and experiment. Repacking is optional. As long as the texture path is preserved...no worries.

 

NifSkope...if you have a nif file....copy and paste it to your desktop & double click on it to open. From there you can experiment... Look it over...see what makes a nif file. Check each section...since it's a copy, don't worry about breaking anything...and nothing is permanent until you save, either way.Eventually, you'll stumble upon a section that has a texture path as well as a setting named 'materials'. That's what you want....the key to textures in Oblivion.

Edit then reset skin

The sreenshot looks like vanilla texture with Roberts body.  it is Roberts body underwear version in the screenshot, right ? ( not the nude body) Your character is nude.

Problem: archive invalidate not set .

 

And BSA files: My a tool ? Use Oblivion Modmanager  or if you use TES Modmanager, both have a BSA view and unpack funktion.

You can even use the Fallout Moad manager to unpack Oblivion BSA files.

 

 

But why unpack the Flan and Max BSA ? The body meshes are Roberts male in Roberts Mod. Only the Body textures are in the BSA. 

Roberts male body can not use two textures.

So it is a esp error ( or the wrong texture in the Flan and Max Mod. Yes than you must unpack the BSA to check it )

But it looks like a archive invalidate problem...If the body use the vanilla foot texture. But that can not be it is a new race with own textures / textures path.

 

So it can be the vanilla body meshes with the Flan and Max textures.

 

---------------

EDIT

It is the archive invalidate ! You have not set it !!!!!!!

Without archive invalidate your game will use the Oblivion files in the BSA.

If it search for the body meshes it first check the Oblivion meshes BSA and load the hand, foot, upper and lower body. !!!! it ignore the Roberts meshes in your folders !!!!!

With archive invalidate  the game first checks the folders, and if it can not find a mesh or texture it checks the BSA.

 

Here Roberts body with your race textures  and vanilla body

You see the Vanilla body with your Roberts male Flan-Natural Skin textures looks exactly like your screenshot.

 

The esp is OK, all 4 races have right textures path. Set archive invalidate and everything is fine.

 

Why have you ignored my first post ? I told you about archive invalidate , and read my yellow Link below.
