CTRl > F4 not working as it should

Post » Mon Nov 19, 2012 6:39 pm

Hi Folks!

I have been working on creating a follower and everything works fine except in game the face and the body doesn't match. The tones are totally off. I know that you are suppose to highlight your follower's name in the object window and press "CTRL>F4." But it isn't working. I have even tried changing the skin tone from #1 to #2, for example and pressing "CTRL>F4 and it still isn't working. Moreover, The lip color never changes either. Can some assist please? Thank you.

Hi Jallard, I have found that you need to have to also have the Actor category selected in the window, don't search *All and ctrl-F4 from there. Search Actor -> Actor for your person's name then export as usual. I hope that helps.

You'll know that it works if a confirmation window pops up when you hit control+F4. Once clicking YES, it will generate and say it was sucessful. Then it's done. :)

It seems like --with me at least-- it is hit or miss. The other day I created a follower in which I did as I have described above. So, I went back into the CK and changed the skin tone from #1 to #2 hit CTRL > F4 and it worked. Other times that doesn't work either. That said, I have only been working in CK for a week now. Still an elderly newbie. Thanks for the assist. It was much appreciated. Now, if only I can lean how to create good looking faces?!?

Incidentally, I just created a new character and everything worked at it is meant to, but the lip color that I had selected did not appear in the game.
