Hello everyone, hope you're all fine and safe. I'm asking for help here with something that randomly occurs in my gameplay, and i sincerely do not have a clue what can cause this. Issue: I'm in combat, then suddenly when i notice, there is a weird visual effect (looks like the same effect from the hot gas that explodes in game, but it keeps cyrcling around the screen). Happens both in 1st and 3rd person. Happens also in a new game. Quick video to show it, you can easily notice something moving in a circle around the screen, especially in the end where you can see the gunners skull: Info: I first noticed this bug after installing Magno Cum Gaudion and CSA Surrender. Not saying they are culprits, but i started thinking that this could be related to sex mods, because i would be in combat, get low life, surrender and then the visual effect would appear. Later, i also randomly got the visual effect after leaving combat. I don't remember this ever happening while at full life, only low life and usually with other effects going on, like thirsty, addictions and etc. Most times i just reload, fight again and go on, but i already tried sleeping, changing cells, changing weather and even some commands to dispell the character, altough i'm not 100% sure i tested the right ones, since info on this is a bit difficult to find. I also opened my character with Better Console, went through all active effects and tried to remove some of them that i was unsure what they were, but no luck there. I appreciate any help and insight about what i can do about it. I'm thinking about Image Space Adapters, like a low life effect from a mod (NAC i'm looking at you), but can't reach any conclusion. All special hit, radiation and etc effects from NAC are disabled in the holotape. Thanks in advance, and have a good day! ?

Nice that you got the problem fixed by using the 2k face. It's true, LMCC 2k patch has everything you need, the fix for HD DLC would only be useful for things made for vanilla. If you only install mods for 2K face you'll be fine. The first preset uses LMCC, and you were using HD DLC, so maybe the problem was with you not having the patch? The second preset does not use LMCC, so a lot of things may look different. Also it requires 2K with mods that appear to NOT be for 2K (lol?). DeLuxe makeup is definetely not compatible with 2K. Strange. In the end it's mostly a question of something not being patched correctly, either for the HD DLC or 2K face.

Humm i'll test it later. It gets a ton of time to get to the main menu for the first time i open the game, then a LOT less if it crashes or if i quit. If i clear the memory cache before opening the game, seens it runs a bit more stable in terms of crashes. I think that optmizing FO4 is a war that we will never win... And war... War never changes. (TES VI and FO5 will probably be the same and so on lol)

Yes, your question should be why the preset is causing brown face. A link to it would help, so we can know exactly what you're using. Since you said you did a fresh install, there are probably no leftovers, but it would be good to know: Are you using NMM? Or maybe Vortex? Have you really deleted Data folder before installing again? If using MO2, then no problem. The preset can be trying to load something that is not in your game, or in a different position, thus failing to load and causing the problem. Isn't it an old preset using old version of LMCC (and maybe something that was removed)(i don't know?)? I have never used Oni face, and i never used other presets, aside from the ones i create and load myself, so i don't understand much about how they work. My bad ba2 was causing the game to fail to load the dirt and grime from vanilla, and i was getting brown face on NPCs using it, and also on presets that had them. You said you're using HD DLC. I don't remember which files for tints have specular, but have you searched for some HD DLC black face fix on Nexus to convert your files to 1024? Or better, have you installed LMCC patch for HD DLC?

I said a bit about it in the reupload i did of Real HD 2K ba2 on Nexus, why it can happen, and how to fix. Here. I'll copy paste what i wrote there here and add to the discussion below: So, to make it clear: Random brown face happens, you can use console command disable/enable or enter slm and edit anything to re-load face, save and load or restart the game. Any will fix the issue. The mod Rusty Face Fix fixes this almost all the time. When the brown face is consistent, then you must take a look on all your face textures, including brows, makeup, grime/dirt, tattoo, face paint. Eyes and hair are excluded from this, also teeth. Vanilla: if i'm not mistaken, diffuse and normal are 1024 and specular, 512. HD DLC: diffuse, normal and specular are all 1024. Real HD (example): normal and diffuse 2048 and specular 1024. What does this mean? All make up, face paint, etc files must have the same resolution as face. If you are using vanilla, you can't install a mod for makeup with 2K. IF using HD DLC, you can install a mod for makeup, for example, as they are in 1024 (for vanilla), but a body texture that comes with face textures for vanilla will cause problem (because they have 512 specular). If using 2K face, mods for makeup must be 2048, and if you install another face texture, it must be for 2K, with 1024 specular. Does Load Order matters? Yes AND no. If your textures are all loose files, then NO. If you have textures packed in ba2, then YES. But this will only happen if you pack it yourself, or if you install a lot of things that you doesn't even know what they are. Chances are minimal. So... usually, load order doesn't matter at all. In any case, load the ba2 with face textures as low as possible to avoid problems, if that's the case. Just remember thar some mods that replaces NPCs can cause problems on their own, and if you use them, it will be more difficult to solve. For vanilla NPCs and player character, not touched by replacer mods, it is easy to fix. You just need to actually remove all texture mods that touch face and re-install them, keeping in mind what exactly is your goal. IF vanilla, just remove everything, and reinstall them looking if they are for vanilla or HD dlc or 2k face. CBBE, any body texture, mods like DeLuxe makeup and etc, all fine. For HD DLC, you'll have to be more carefull. Install CBBE, the body texture you want and etc, and then you'll have to run a program that will convert the speculars to 1024, there is a few on nexus but i never used them myself. Makeup, tints and brows for vanilla will work fine. For 2K face, then things must be strict. You'll have to install CBBE, then any body texture you want, and then the face files for 2K. If using face files in a ba2 (like the one i provided), you'll have to delete the face files from character assets manually. After that, carefully install makeup and tint mods that have 2k patch. No patch, no install. What i recommend is installing Looks Meny Customization Compendium with it's patch for 2K. Now, about load order... it shouldn't matter, but my LooksMenu and LMCC plugins are at the top of my load order, just below the esl plugins. Some time ago i was having some problems and they ended going up there, i don't remember why. (brown face bug, Unique NPCs... I made a patch for Unique, but only after i removed it from my game i discovered that my ba2 was corrupt, and probably the cause of my issues was it lol) Sorry for extensive reply, hope it helps. Edit: Holy Cow! Is it just me or editing in LL is messed up? I tried using [spoiler tag and everything went to hell. Now i fixed with the proper spoiler button but my text is going out of the text box lol Edit2: Had to make another comment and delete the other. What just happened.. ?

I use these ones: Alternative Magazine Covers and More Burnt Magazine and Cover retex Proper Flyers and Posters Err... were you looking for NSFW stuff? Installed such things once but i pretty much dislike having them in the game lol

Actually, trust is not something that i could easily tell you that i have, in the same way for one or another person. I have one friend, two actually, that i trust to lend money. I just know they'll pay me back and they actually have. I trust them, for example. But can i rely on them? Like, would i count on them to help me in the future? No. Not because i don't trust them, but i just can't know if they would help me like i help them. One of my oldest friends, if not the oldest, is someone i like, and i trust him. But i don't feel like talking to him about some things of my life, or relying on him to anything. I know how he is, his personality and everything. I do trust him, but i know he wouldn't put his hand on fire for me, and i probably wouldn't for him, maybe. I have another friend that i don't talk much to him, but i have great consideration for him and i really trust him to be a person to have my back, but because of how he is. He is a really lovely person. I know i could rely on him, but we are not that really close... On other side... i don't trust anyone right now to talk about my deep feelings. As much as i love my family, for example, and i know i can count on them for anything (ok, not anything), i don't trust them enough to talk about how i feel. So, to the question... if we understand that the REAL trust in the meaning of someone that would put his hand on fire for you, that would really have your back and be on your side no matter what and for ecerything... No, i don't have anyone and i only trust myself right now. If i can find someone like this one day, then i would be realized. A person i could trust and also offer all of myself to it. Can we trust in someone we just met? I guess that yes, we can, but to a certain degree. Sometimes we maybe just need a stranger to trust it with our secrets, fears and doubts. And then never met it again.

Oh i never read Dark Tower or Wizard and Glass. But Dead Zone was indeed a great read. It is indeed a classic heh One that i liked a lot were Insomnia. I love how SK uses children and old people as the protagonists. I think it makes the characters more "real"...

Hehe i love Stephen King too. I am currently reading (at a slow pace) The Stand (god, it was translated to portuguese as "Dance of Death", i will never understand some translations). I don't read as much as i would like to... And i simply love "modern fantasy", including horror. Aside from S.K., i read two books from Clive Barker and i think they are great. For fantasy i can only talk about Patrick Rothfuss. I've read his first book Name of the Wind and it is perfect. Can't remember much now, i have this ability to 'forget' things.

What are you confused about it? Please explain exactly what you are having difficult with. Are you not using mod managers? I'm using MO2 for a long time now and can't even think of adding things to Data folder manually anymore ? This is what you should do, yes. What is going wrong?

Looskmenu esp is just to activate the ba2, so if you guys are having problems, try unpacking the ba2 and using the loose files (mainly, the scripts). Maybe this can help? Are your games, f4se and looksmenu fully updated to the lastest versions? Wouldn't hurt to check and reinstall everything but the game. You're talking that when you open the "advanced" tab you get no sliders, right? And that you can see the Clothes, Advanced and etc option in the bottom menu? Looksmenu now also have another option for tattoos and etc. If you are getting no sliders, check Looksmenu install like already suggested. If everything is correct, you should see the sliders even if they are not working (moving them does nothing to the body). First try updating everything (again?) and checking folders. AFAIK it is working for me, but i don't remember checking after the last update. Are you guys talking exactly about the last update or the mod was already not working before 1.10.106?

Well, there's not much i can add. I explained how to get the morph files for your armors, that's all you should do, i think. Just try it. Read my post carefully and try to build the armor nif and tri files. You don't need a custom preset, no, but you must use the same for everything this way. It's not a moot point because if DB is overwriting your custom body... and then you overwrite DB with the custom body again, it should read your custom body. And the tri file from the custom armors as well. You just need to create everything in Bodyslide first then enter the game to test the rings. Did you delete anything? If you remove the tri file the mod probably won't work.

Dear friends, that's funny how you can go off topic so easily. And discussing about ageneralizations. Like "if a priest kills a man, then all priests are murderers". Easy there, do not judge a whole group as if everyone does the same. All cases are unique cases. Like the main subject. A kid that sees his parents having sex can never live normally again for the rest of it's life. Another one may just go on and live like if it was nothing. Also, the whole thing "because Lord said so" is what people that have a better unerstandment about Christianity gets mad with because of those that calls themselves Christians. People use a lot of excuses for what they want. If it is the DIvine Will, better, so no questions. Mos people still lives by the errors and mistakes that the church made years ago. Usually people use knowledge to bend others, and it will always be like this. People get it in their hands (even a good read on the Bible can show you how wrong some statements are), but they choose to only listen, and follow, and not think. "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge", isn't it? Sorry, i went astray too ?

Well, let's go slow then. What exactly are you talking about when you say "bodyslide"? The tool or your custom body? Because probably DB comes with a new body meshe, thus why it is not required to install Bodyslide at all. If it comes with a body meshe, then it will overwrite the one you made before, meaning femalebody.nif and .tri, both the mesh and the morphs, so the magic can happen in game. The magic must happen by taking the standard body that DB installs, then applying morphs in game like you could do using Looksmenu - nothing with the mirror. A note about Looksmenu: DB claims it doesn't need Bodyslide, so i will stay with my idea about how it works and then there is no way that it would overwrite your Bodyslide install. So, I think we got through this part " When i installed DB it overwrote my custom bodyslide i had already set. ". ----- " So if DB i s overwriting my bodyslide and it is not being used, how is bodyslide going to effect my character? " Bodyslide itself won't affect your character. It creates a nif and, if checked, a tri file. Of course it does a lot of things, but to not leave the subject, that's it. All you want from Bodyslide is the body and tri file. Let's say, you installed Bodyslide and created your body. Now you have a female body mesh (nif). Then you install DB, it replaces your female mesh with a new one. Now you have a new standard female body mesh and tri file. With this, DB will work as intended. All armors now must be in the standard body shape with tri files, so vanilla armors now will work as they should with DB. Now you want to use a custom body, so you go and create a new female body in bodyslide, and this new female body (mesh/nif) replaces the standard one that DB installed. With this, the nude body will now be the body you created in Bodyslide, modified by DB magic. Armors won't follow, unless you create meshes with your body preset for them too. This way, you'll have a non standard body created by you working with DB, if you created meshes for both the armors and the nude body. ----------- " How do i get bodyslides for the armor? Pampas is one that i am using. " A lot of armors that you find on Nexus and LL have Bodyslide files. When downloading an outfit mod, check if it does have Bodyslide files for it in the Files section or in another mod in Nexus or even in the internet. Find these bodyslide files, and install them. Pampas have these files, just look in the mod page. Once you downloaded Bodyslide files for the armor mods, open bodyslide. You know how to use it, right? In the upper left area, Body means your body preset, the shape, and Outfit is the output, the armors or body you want to convert. Then, do as i said: " So you'll need to get Bodyslide files for ALL armors you use, and open Bodyslide, select the Body used (if you are using a custom one, select it, otherwise, use the standard CBBE required). Then you can do 2 things: Select each Outfit and look for the box just in the left side of the Build button. It's called Build Morphs or something like that. Check it. Then, and only then, click Build. Or, to do things the quick way, check the Morphs box and then click Batch Build. Batch does everything at once, so you don't have to go through each outfit one by one. But always be sure that the Morph box is checked. The files it creates are the .tri files that looksmenu will read and then use to edit the body ingame. " Look at this: ---------------------- " I have already used the looks mirror and the ring to change myself and others successfully. " You got the mod working, you just need to build tri files for your armor mods with the right preset and everything will work as intended in the game. No problem, but don't even bother reading this without being on PC with bodyslide open. It is easier to understand once you are with your hands on the dirty Hope you can understand what i said and can get it working. ::::::::::: I must let it be clear again that i NEVER used DB, and i am just guessing that this is how the mod work and that doing it will make DB work. If this doesn't work in any way, it would be interesting to try to find help in DB 'forum'. edit: damn ignore my "meshe", it's mesh xD

Huh it all depends on how DB works. If it uses LooksMenu in game sliders over a standard CBBE body, then all armors made with the morphs should work, yes. So you'll need to get Bodyslide files for ALL armors you use, and open Bodyslide, select the Body used (if you are using a custom one, select it, otherwise, use the standard CBBE required). Then you can do 2 things: Select each Outfit and look for the box just in the left side of the Build button. It's called Build Morphs or something like that. Check it. Then, and only then, click Build. Or, to do things the quick way, check the Morphs box and then click Batch Build. Batch does everything at once, so you don't have to go through each outfit one by one. But always be sure that the Morph box is checked. The files it creates are the .tri files that looksmenu will read and then use to edit the body ingame. If you equip the ring, your body will change, if you talk to someone with the ring equiped, the person will change. From what i read, it seens that's just it. I never used DB, so i'm doing a blind shot here.
