if yo use npc editor you can't have a standalone companion,bcos it will revert back to default faceskin.
Just remember to use the CK for the meshes, and the NPC Editor for the textures. X3 Pretty much ever char I made just using the NPC Editor ended up with really weird faces...
THANK YOU!
I saw 'tint' and 'CK' in the title, came to check it was indeed what I thought you were talking about, then went back to the CBBE mod to copy the post I made to help out someone else.
It works for me and the one I posted it for, so...=) good luck with making characters.
That's an issue with the CK. It doesn't export the face tint files correctly, so you'll need to use the NPC editor. Be warned that the NPC Editor is bad at exporting meshes. This is how I do it:
1. Make NPC in CK. Save, reload, and export the face data by hitting CTRL+F4. The exported face data will create the head mesh and bad head textures in the correct directory.
2. Open up .esp in NPC Editor. Check the makeup looks alright on the rather scary 'model', and correct it if it doesn't.
3. Make sure that the 'Save to BSA' box is unchecked, and click on Create Mod. Make sure the name of this .esp doesn't match your actual mod's name. If your NPC mod is called 'Fluffy.esp', call this new one something different...like 'NotFluffy.esp'. This will ensure the 'Fluffy.esp' and the head mesh aren't overwritten.
4. Delete the .esp you just made. 'NotFluffy.esp' isn't needed. =D
5. Go into data/meshes/actors/character/facegendata/facegeom/ and find the folder that's named the same as the .esp you made in NPC Editor. Delete it.
6. Go into data/textures/actors/character/facegendata/facetint/ and find the NPC Editor folder there. Go into it, and select and copy the .dds file. Go back one step (to the facetint folder) and find the folder named after your actual mod. Go into it and paste, allowing the file to overwrite.
7. Delete the NPC Editor folder in the textures. You don't need it any more.
Oh, and the current picture is how she looks in game now. The one on the left wearing the necklace is my PC. The one on the right is the follower, but her lips aren't right as per the description. So this is how she looks with the tintmask in my folder. Without it, well, it's bad, so I don't want to show that.
