The two female NPCs shown on the screenshots seem to have a very bright/fair skin type too. Your settings work well for my female vampire followers (Serana and Lydia) who have a very fair/bright skin tone (255/255/255 but with a much brighter default skin tone already, 255/255/255 for them is truly bright), but make the neck seam issue even worse for dark skinned NPCs like my redguard follower Ryanna. Yikes, just realized it's about 4am in Europe! Boris, you need some shuteye! Raised EpidermalMix and SubdermalMix to maximum, and still no color difference between face and body. Three-day stubbles look pretty disturbing and have well visible seams. looks pretty disturbing.įor my males I realized the already above described facial hair issue. My redguard follower with a dark brown skin color has a much brighter face. I reworked the Tan Lines Fair Skin textures in the CK (255/255/255) to the brightest possible (and this delivers a much brighter skin color at 255/255/255 you will get as brightest skin tone with default CBBE textures at 255/255/255) for my two vampire ladies (they should have pale skin) and those two NPCs are actually those who have no neck seams at all.Īs darker the skin tone of a NPC as more visible is the color difference between body and face. I experienced that as fairer/brighter the skin color as less you will see "SSS seams".
#SKYRIM CBBE SKIN TEXTURE HOW TO#
The only difference between body and face textures is usually the resolution and the fact that faces have tintmasks (maybe even reworked ones by CK.and no I know about the facegendata bug in CK and know how to extract facegendata correctly). I never mix different body and face textures from different mods, because even with texblend you will have neck seams, more or less visible.and I am no photoshop expert who might solve those issues on its own.
#SKYRIM CBBE SKIN TEXTURE INSTALL#
The only thing is that I use special normal and specular maps, but the discoloration effect is visible even when I use the CBBE or Fair Skin default normal and specular map (tested it, it's just a mouse click in the NMM to install and deinstall it again). I have a different texture pack, Tan Lines Fair Skin (the mod isn't available on nexus anymore), same here, all textures out of one hand (body + feet, hands, face). I use CBBE body textures + the CBBE face pack (all textures out of one hand). I wonder why it differs for users - I'd guess different texture replacers for bodies/faces, but that's not the only issues reported. Arkngt wrote:I have none of you guys issues with 0.219.
