Fallout 4 Black Face Bug Fix
FO4 CBBE Dark Face Bug Fallout 4 (self.FalloutMods) submitted 1 year ago by CaitSkyClad I decided to take a break from Skyrim and fire up Fallout 4 again and I had a nearly perfect install until I installed one too many mods and busted it.
Solution for people who can use modding-tools (everyone else watch below):Use the BA2 Extractor from the NexusOpen these files at /steamapps/Fallout4/data'DLCUltraHighResolution - Textures01.ba2'DLCUltraHighResolution - Textures02.ba2'Unpack them someplace.Delete Face and Body textures (ONLY IF YOU HAVE MODS FOR BOTH!) and you are good.If you only use a mod for face textures, remove only face textures:)Repack them.Replace the originals.If you feel unsafe about it, please backup the original files instead of removing them. Otherwise you would have to redownload the two archives (8 GB) at a later point when you decide to ditch your 4k facetextures for the 1k Bethesda versions.Non-modders:If you are unable to repack it as a BA2 (You need the GECK for that) just remove the DLCUltraHighResolution - Textures01.ba2RENAMING WILL NOT WORK, putting it to a different folder will, though.This will remove everything this pack contains. So apart form the facetextures you will revert 5% of the textures to the before-DLC state (you wont notice, since it concerns only creatures).The best solution is when you use a mod that remodels creatures.
Because then you can remove the first file and dont give a damn since it only contains 'actors' - which are creatures and people (and cats). Originally posted by:I wonder what's the actual impact of just using BAE and extract the contents of the packs, apply the community fixes and just using it all in loose file format. Then again, if i'm going through that trouble, might as well repackage it all into a neat ba2 with the seasons mods applied and easily interchangeable laterI did that. No negative impact.
(only did so for the first texturepack archive)But as you said - using the Geck to just repack it isnt exactly hard to do, so definitly an option.I use the rest of the textures as lose files. Originally posted by:Smooth. Before I begin my next playthrough i'll do that, and try to optimize a little more for my current hardware. It'll take a while before I can gather every part I need for my new rig, I plan on ordering my new CPU within the next month or two, and then the motherboard, and then some DDR4.
Should be a fairly high budget build so takes a while, since i'll have to import some parts and I need the exchange rate as favorable as possible to make the build viableJust a little advice though. If you buy your PC solely for Fallout 4 be reminded, that even with the best hardware in the market you get stuttering and framedrops, especially when you like building in settlements.I am playing Fallout 4 in 4k on a very high-end PC. Still looks like crap. Shadows are aweful and you cant see anything 200 meters away. When you look down on Diamond City from the Trinity tower it looks like the game is from the 90's.So if you can play just fine at the moment, you shouldnt order things too fast. Wait for the new CPU generation to come out.If you buy hardware just now, you will lose out big time and bite your ♥♥♥ when the new GPU's and CPU's are released since then the market will be full of second-hand high end cards and the CPU you would buy now would be siginificantly reduced in price. Originally posted by:For those who have the creation kit installedThe app called Archive2 found in;C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonFallout 4ToolsArchive2Will unpack as well as pack.ba2 archives.No need to use BA2 extractor or GECK, other tools also available in that same tools dir.All provided by Bethesda.I will include the hint in the first post.Though the GECK is the creation kit:PIt means 'Garden of Eden Creation Kit' - is the same as 'creation kit'.
So I cut this out to not confuse anyone. Originally posted by:there's a easier fix, just delet the two files called BaseFemaleHeadd And BaseFemaleHeads Located in SteamsteamappscommonFallout 4Datatexturesactorscharacterbasehumanfemale. That's what fixed that sunburn lol. It was a face mod but it's apparently not compatable with the new HD Pack until some one decides to fix it thats your best option.I'm not using any face mods at all and it happens with father on the institute, but I didn't make a big deal of it anyway cause he dies at the end of the storyso far I havn't seen the problem anywhere else in game.

I'm just waiting for Ryzen (as it's a dual channel architecture) to corroborate my research and then i'll begin the concept design and buying the new parts, hopefully I can get it done by my birthday in July.
It's gonna be my first major-seriously-kickass build since 2011; when I last built my i7-990X w/ 3-way 480 machine which was pretty much the best thing you could get back then.I'm fairly certain that my current 4770K is gonna perform to the same standard as the higher end Ryzen 3 4C/8T parts, so that's already my baseline here. I'm looking to at least quadruple on the CPU power and triple on the memory bandwidth, i'll be keeping my GTX 980's as they're all I need for 2560x1080 and despite the VRAM being a little short, the performance's pretty adequate otherwise.
So my character's name is Ulfberth and he's a BoS Soldier. He managed to find his son with Danse and BoS' help, so he's very grateful to them, and made his way into the institute.At first it was very difficult for him to deal with the fact that the institute was currently being lead by his very own son. Regardless, Ulfberth still love him. He could not find any other reason to stay living after the bombs fell, so he had to make his son snap out of it, even if he grown up in a pure science environment without knowing what love means and what having humanity in the heart is. So he tried many ways to convince him, but Shaun was very decided that the institute is all he needs. BoS and the whole commonwealth are the Institute's enemies. So what to do? 'The institute must stop!'
Before having his decision to finally fight the institute, Ulfberth, figured his son was dying from cancer. As father, Ulfberth could not accept that and did the impossible to find a cure. He went after Dr Volkert's help and they finally managed to find a cure; its a method involving nanobots 'Damn, Shaun wouldnt agree with this'. Dr Volkert advised Ulfberth to apply the cure in a very specific opportunity.So that's it, the cure is ready and Ulfberth gathered enough info to deliver to the BoS about the Institute to finally fight it. In the end, Ulfberth infiltrated the institute along with BoS this time, to stop them once and for all.Before blowing the whole place, Ulfberth found his son laid back in his bed, his son was dying.
Shaun is so angry and disappointed with his father. Ulfberth tried to convince him a last time to make him think what he has been doing, but Shaun can't take it, 'The institute is dead, so am i, there's nothing more left for me in this realm'. Shaun is slowly losing his consciousness, its time to apply the cure! 'Stay, with me Shaun!!! Your dad is here for you. You can think there's nothing left for you, but you are the only thing that left for me, you deserve a chance to have a father, the chance that have been stolen from the institute'. Shaun's fell asleep and Ulfberth had to go, the place was about get blown.
He did his best.Weeks after the institute destruction, Ulfberth got a message. It was his son 'Meet me in the Vault 111, i want to talk to you', Ulfberth couldn't believe that he had to see on his own. Once in the Vault 111, 'I knew you'd survive, i'm so relieved to see you, but how you managed to escape the blow?' Said Ulfberth.
This is the first part of my new Galactic Conquest series in which I'll be playing the Knights of the Old Republic Galactic Conquest mod from Maveritchell and his team. I plan on adding commentary to every episode in this series and each episode should be around the 20 minute mark. Battlefront 2 galactic conquest mods. Throughout this series I'll be playing through the Jedi Civil War campaign as the Republic.

Shaun found a way to use the Institute's teleportation to get as far as he could from the explosion. Even tho, he's still angry and confused at same time, he demanded answers from his father. About the cure, about the what he did and why he still care about him.
Shaun was really angry and refused to accept everything his father was saying to himAfter a hard speech between them, Ulfberth was sick of it:- Grow up, Shaun! The Institute was a force for evil, they needed to be dealt with.You are blind, son. Open your eyes and look all around you. All the lives they've destroyed. All the enemies they've created.I don't even know where to start. They shot my husband. Brainwashed him and turned him into a cold calculating sociopath.They replaced people with synths, killed off the Commonwealth Provisional Government, infected people with FEV and wiped out settlements for scrap.The Institute wasn't saving humanity, Shaun.
It was abusing it for the benefit of the select few. Where was the institute, when people need purified water and cleaned food? Where was the institute, when people where been attacked by supermutants, feral ghouls and raiders? Where was the institute, when people need medical treatment that probably only you have access with all this technology? The institute was for the institute only, never for the commonwealth!Shaun never saw Ulfberth like that before, so he finally made up his mind:- I have to admit, I've had much to reflect on over the past couple of months. With old age comes regret. And asking 'what if' more often.
Standing here.in person for once, in the very same spot where our family was forever torn apart by the actions of Vault-Tec. And the Institute. Perhaps given all you. Have been through. It would not be entirely right to hold this. Resolution against you. You're a broken man. I should put you out of your misery here and now, father.
That won't bring the Institute back. I don't think I will ever be able to forgive you but. You are all I have left in this world. Don't know what to do anymore.Shaun cries, Ulfberth gets closer, grabs his head and get his face closer to shaun's, forehead to forehead:- But i know, its time to do the real good, its time to redeem yourself. Also, are you really going to pass up probably the best chance you'll have to kick some ass with your father?' The cure somehow improved Shaun's conditions for his age too, BoS Doctors said he could give a good super soldier if properly trained, so did Ulfberth. He teached a lot to Shaun, he trained his body and his senses so he could join the fight with his father and the BoS, to rebuild the commonwealth.This is not a lore discussion thread.
I just added mine to give my character a background.Btw, this mod helped me accomplishing this. So to my character's lookTextures: I use a combination of textures so.1- i'm using the diffuse map from this one and the Materials from it (BaseMaleBodyd.dds and all the.BGSM files) - The base texture2- i'm using the specular from this one, i'm using the sweat version (BaseMaleBodys.dds/ BaseMaleHandss.dds and BaseMaleHeads.dds) - to make it a bit more wet3- i'm using the normal map from this one (BaseMaleBodyn.dds) - to get rid of body definitionInstalling one after another won't work, you need to combine all the said files in a single mod so you won't overwrite things by mistake. Customizing your character is also about how to manage your files.
Detailed explanation on how to combine body textures here. Zex Skeleton EditsI've applied some transforms to the zex skeleton bones (in other words i scaled them a bit), so i could get bigger shoulders and thicker neck to match bigger bodies more. Also i scaled the penis size to get 11% bigger.Just install like any other mod and make sure to load it after the original zex skeleton. So ofc you want to have the ZEX skeleton installed already here:. I just did some personal edits, i don't have any credits over this file. Mastercchris granted me permission to share these edits.You can have my personal edits here:( NEW!!! ) - Added CBP bones for physics and now optimized for masculine idle shared aboveNote: If any important update comes out for zex skeleton, like NiO or something, you may want to roll back to the original skeleton to have any new features working right.
Bodytalk and Bodyslide PresetOfc i'm using bodytalk as body replacer, you can get it here:, You want to load the bodytalk before the textures, cus there are some textures in there that could replace them.Also you want to have my bodyslide project, cus i've made more tweaks to BTStomachFat to work better with my preset, bigger and more optimized balls, Tweaked shoulders and other things, also to make sure that you can select my preset in the preset selection:( NEW!!! ) - added support for latest bodytalk's CBP Physics integration, you need the newest Zex Skeleton, CBP and ZCBP just install using your mod manager like any other regular mod. Build the naked body tagged as TBOS-Bodytalk-V2 Ulfberth (For cut penis) or TBOS-Bodytalk-V2-Uncut Ulfberth (for uncut penis your choice) using the preset called ' Big Bear'.Looksmenu Preset (you can share your looksmenu preset just if you want, its totally option, but at least share the values for the body)I'm just sharing my personal character face cus i would like to see what people would do with him.
Al Jolson
Just please don't do anything that would break the role i assigned for him - See ' My character's role' (remember, he's a BoS soldier, but it doesn't mean he can't abuse raiders and supermutants. Or get abused by them ). I've also included a preset for Longfellow (my most loyal friend, he's always guarding my back and taking advantage of it too why not hehe), Danse (another hot fuckbuddie) and Shaun (my son's hot lol).To load my preset just enter in console 'slm 14' no quotations, then go to Preset then click on my 'Ulfberth' to load my characters preset.If you want to load Shaun's preset on Shaun or my other bois, left click on them with the console opened. A id will show up, so type in the console 'slm TheShowedUPIdHere' and load the desired presetIf you just want the body proportions open up your looskmenupresetnamehere.json (located in DataF4SEpluginsF4EEPresets) using word pad and look for a string named ' 'Values' in the very bottom of the file then change them to this: 'Values': 0, 0.5, 1, 0.802322, 0.20929 Like this. And the Weight triangle values are 'Weight': 0, 0.367432, 0.609345 as you can see in the image above. After changing the values just save the file and load it in Looksmenu.Ulfberth and Longfellow had their clothing stolen on the night after hunting, so they had to come back to the sanctuary nakedDon't mind my son, he's always guarding my back.Ulfberth after a successfully completed mission of cleaning the are from some Supermutants, Ad Victoriam!'
Dad, another Settlement needs our help'Please, not you too Shaun'Edited Saturday at 07:01 PM by Ulfberth06/22Tweaked the balls a bit for for my Bodyslide files and updated the Big Bear Preset to use Balls slider to 80%. Added 'Balls' project for higher poly balls and Huge Bulge NeverNude to use as reference for big bulge outfits. Hi Ulfberth I will like to try your skin texture combination but i don't know what you mean when you said:' you need to combine all the said files in a single mod' do you need a tool to do that?because if the files have the same name is going to always give the option to overwrite. I was making this character to dress hem with your convert cloths ( The Hour of The Reaper) and after you share textures i believe that will look more realistic with you texture. I like the idea of hairy and oily at the same time. And your giving me that. I use ( OILY) this skin texture is great but it is very buggy because it works great with your character but it make other male npc looks with black face.
Another thing is that it needs is PUBIC HAIR. But it seems like the creator does not care about this mod any more, I didn't see any update of this mods for along time.Any ways if is possible to combine oily skin with some hairy textures will be great.
I can't wait to see my characters with oily skin and hairy chest or oily skin and and pubic hair. And even great if the black face bug can be fix for other males npcs. Alright, i think the forum rolledback lol, so here i go again.By combining i mean you need to manually extract all the mods and put in a single folder the files you need. Once they are all there then you pack it up as.rar and install using your mod manager. If you are using mo2, you can install all of three, no problems, but you need to delete the other files cus they will conflict with each other.For eg:Lets say i want to combine the textures Mod1 the Mod2 and the Mod3. But all of them has the same files like Basemalebodyd.dds, Basemalebodys and Basemalebodyn. But you just want the d from Mod1/ s from Mod2/ and n from Mod3. What do i do?.Delete the s and n from Mod1.Delete the d and n from Mod2.Delete the d and s from Mod3Once done you will end up with the d from Mod1/ s from Mod2/ and n from Mod3. Now.If you are not using MO2:-Pack all of the remaining files in a single folder.
Note: To the correct folder! We are messing with male body textures so the path is TexturesActorsCharacterBaseHumanMale.
You'll end up with something like this;If you are using MO2:-Delete the necessarily files from each mod folder you've installed as i said above and then they are ready to go, cus mo2 virtualize all the folders in a single one once you launch the game.In your case, you want the hairy body with oily effectSo you want to combine the d from Hairy Texture Mod and s from Oily Body Texture Mod. The d Stands for Diffuse (base texture) s Stands for Specular Map (body effect like more shiny, sweat, oily.) n Stands for Normal Map (Body Definition) Edited May 12 by Ulfberth.
Hi Ulfberth Thank you so much for this detail tutorial,I can not thank you enough. Oh damn quality beef everywhere. I'd say to make sure to have the face textures (basemalehead) and the material being loaded by bodytalk. Maybe the M-Skin face texture is not compatible with victoriam line so you may want to load bodytalk's instead.Edit: i just noticed theres no maleface textures neither by Bodytalk and Victoriam line.
There's just a face texture by the M-Skin so you want to delete that and the game will use vanilla face texture, which matches better with victoriam line. Except the Basemaleheads.
I almost forgot to thanks Mr and Mr for helping me. Thanks to those tips i was able to find a decent face texture that is close to my costume skin( hairy and Oily) face only.
And one last thing is it possible to make dirty bodies CLEAN? Sturge's and raiders bodies are dirty and i assume that is the reason my custom skin is not working on them.
If any of you guys know how to fix that please let me know. I want every male body be hairy and oily that will make me very happy. ThanksHere is some naughty pics to show this new skin.
