Fallout 3 Character Overhaul
Fallout Character Overhaul Will Not Work (I've Tried A LOT of 'Fixes') - posted in New Vegas Mod Troubleshooting: If its not one thing its another thing. I guess well call it learning. Having solved all my other problems I am trying to reintroduce character mods so I can begin a new play through. In going to do so I noticed that there was a far improved version of the FCO available so I.
Using Mod Manager I installed New Vegas Redesigned on top of Fallout Character Overhaul, and then the Type 3 body and armor replacer. When I went out to see if it worked I noticed that Sunny Smiles had a distinctly darker skin tone on her head compared to her body.Like I mentioned in the title, I tried all the usual fixes:1. Checked that bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles is set to 1 for all fallout.ini, falloutprefs.ini and Falloutdefault.ini2. Ticked Archive Invalidation on and off several times3. Unticked and ticked 'Have MO manage archives'4. Replaced the body textures installed by Type 3 with the ones found in New Vegas Redesigned (not a standard fix but I read it supposedly fixes the problem)5. Deleted and reinstalled all the mods in their correct (?) order (FCO NVR Type 3)The problem still persists.
Can the issue be that I had Type 3 installed before FCO and NVR? I can't imagine why it would be so since I uninstalled all three mods using MO, unless I'm missing something. I am not using any ENBs if that is of any help. Are you running a 'merged/bashed patch' file? That should resolve mod conflicts affecting the skin color.2.
From the sticky post 'Troubleshooting' in the comments for the Nexus, buried in an IMGUR.COM pic:'If you have used or are using Mod Organizer, Mod Organizer uses its own fallout.ini and falloutprefs.ini, located in SteamsteamappscommonFallout New VegasMod Organizerprofiles(your Profile). These files need to be changed as well.' That location is news to me, though my excuse is 'I don't use MO'. Otherwise all I can suggest is you go through Dracomies' illustrated ' again. Of course, once you have exhausted all those possibilities you can ask Dracomies in the comments of FNVSR3.

But with over 3000 comments, you will have to provide details on what you tried or it's likely he will ignore you for not reading the earlier posts.Please let me know how you fix this so I can update the ' article for others.-Dubious-. I've actually deleted MO and New Vegas and started from scratch. I plan to just install FCO, NVR3 and Type3 to see if the problem is with the mods themselves, or if there was something else in my mod list that was messing them up.EDIT: Okay, so the issue is definitely with the Type3 body replacer. Using the vanilla female body the difference in skin tone is much less noticeable and, I assume, in line with what NVR is supposed to achieve, so I think I installed it correctly.Where it gets weird is that the dead body, using Type3, actually has matching skin textures for both body and head.
I'm basically stumped as to why that is, or how to fix it.Edited by gruntpepper, 17 November 2016 - 05:25 PM.
