I recently started having the issue of the game freezing when selecting a perk on level up. Through trial and error, I narrowed the problem down to this mod. Disable it and everything runs smoothly. Enabled and it freezes. Just in case others have a similar situation.
This works to get rid of the glow, but the left arm piece is still using the texture from the BornAgain T-51B. Better than glowing armor but not ideal. Also, this overrides the unofficial patch's fixes with the stock values and overrides any sort of other fix or mod for this armor. It also prevents using textures that point to custom meshes. So if you use this, Winterized DX is no longer an option. That's okay, DX armors aren't my taste anyway.
That said, here's my mod order that seems to work.
T-51B Hirez Retex(For Winterized Textures) BornAgain T-51B(For Original textures) This Fix
To fix the compatibility problems, I opened your esp in xEdit and made changes where needed. I added all the fixes from the Updated Unofficial Patch, then fixed the broken item health and DR value of the armor by referencing the regular T-51B for the values.
This setup allows me to use the BornAgain textures for the T-51B and the "Hirez" textures for the Winterized version. It also fixes the infinite health and lower armor value to match the stock T-51B.
An update of this with the arm fixed, and the armor value fixes and changes from the Unofficial Patch would be really nice. Otherwise without a little skill in xEdit, a lot of users are screwed out of using Cabal120s armor if they plan to use the Winterized armor. This setup does the trick for me. The only real downside is the funny colored arm, but at least its referencing a high quality texture.
This is also a safe way to experiment, as all I need to do to revert changes is re-download your esp. No changes need to be done anywhere else.
I saw this comment, and I need to ask, what were the edits? I wanted to try and fix this myself, but without the knowledge of where to change it, I couldn't exactly do anything. I'm sorry if I sound like I'm retarded, but I'm unsure of what to change to make the fix possible.
An alternative fix is to modify the Winterized T-51b texture so the glow map and environmental map point to the one from BornAgain. That way, you don't have to change the armor itself, which could override other mods that change its stats, if I'm reading you correctly. Environment Map Mask should be Armort-51bpowerarmort-51b powerarmor_m.dds and Glow Map should be Armort-51bpowerarmort-51b powerarmor_g.dds
This is the solution I used in my mod but forgot to mention on the original BornAgain thread. Going to copy and paste that now.
Thanks for the tip Panzer. I haven't noticed any issues with it yet. The improvements from Better Power Armor are still on them, so they aren't missing anything as far as I can tell. If anyone has any problems let me know and I will see if this workaround works!!
Not sure if I'm the only one, but for me this fixes all but the left arm of the Winterized T-51b. The left arm looks like the left arm of the Bornagain retexture for the normal T-51b.
Well, for some odd reason I'm having problems with this patch. It's causing my game to freeze. I was playing Operation Anchorage and while I was trying to clear out the Chimera Depot, my game was freezing up on me, and this was happening after I had downloaded this patch. I removed the patch, and was able to succeed in taking out the depot. I'm using the Updated Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch, which I guess changes some PA stats, so When I downloaded this patch, my game started freezing.
