Legionary kids are floating hands and heads? : Fallout: New Vegas

» Fri Dec 31, 2010 5:08 am

So, in the fort the two kids running the stairs have only their heads, hands and weapon visible :eek:

AFAIK missing texture should show the armor purple, and missing mesh should show the big excalmation mark. What causes this?

I've seen this earlier in Shivering Isles, where the fanatics had only their heads visible.

So eh.... what's your mod load order? Or playing vanilla?

Figured it out, it was a missing mesh from the child armor replacer mod (changes child NPCs so that they don't use advlts outfit, and thus the same bodyshape), but why didn't it show the the giant exclamation mark?

Check and see if you have data/meshes/armor/legion/legionrecruit.nif (edit: or whatever nif the mod is using)
If you do, open it with nifSkope, click on the parts you cannot see in-game, and under BSShaderPPLightingProperty > BSShaderFlags, make sure that the flag SF_WINDOW_ENVIRONMENT_MAPPING is NOT selected.

The mesh file wasn't in the folder, so it was just an honest user error. It shows up normally now that i added the file there, but i'm wondering why the exclamation mark wasn't shown.

If your files are in a doubled-up folder like Data/Data/Meshes/, you'll get invisible bodies instead of exclamation marks. Makes it a lot of fun when ten Raider heads come after you

Yeah, the fights in SI against the fanatics were pretty interesting. In fact, given the craziness of the place i tought it was working properly :lmao: Still, nothing like that in this case, just missing files.

Maybe the missing mesh mesh is missing? :hehe:
