Support for this preset mod has ended, and is offered as is. While I may pop in here and there to help with stuff occasionally, there are plenty of resources on this mod page, the optional download in the files, and its comment section, on how to fix any face texture issues.
This is only a preset .json, and unless you use my optional download, there are no other files or textures included in the main file - any texture issues encountered are the results of improper texture use/installation, or general Creation Engine wonkiness. This happens on consoles/unmodded PC installs sometimes too. It is what it is and has nothing to do with my preset.
The grey face bug generally occurs as a consequence of having mismatched face texture resolutions.
If you are unable/unwilling to go through the trouble of fixing it, I suggest you simply do not use the recommended texture mod Real HD Face Textures, or ANY HD FACE TEXTURE MODS to save you the headache.
deLuxe Makeupis not an HD texture mod and will NOT work with any HD face textures. It will cause the bug. Its a subtle thing anyway, so unless you use standard size textures just skip it. If you want to use deLuxe Makeup with HD face textures, download my optional bug fix file, I've resized them to 2K myself.
Common Issues:
Josie's eyes look super squinty, thin, weird Probably missing the required eye meshes. Make sure to install https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11660 (However I vaguely recall an issue with characters going squinty-eyed, or I am just having subconscious Starfield flashbacks.)
The preset is grayed out in Looks Menu or otherwise does not show up Make sure you have all the requirements for Looks Menu installed. Some users have reported fixing this by simply reinstalling Looks Menu. Make sure you got F4SE too. This might sound a bit obvious, but just in case, also make sure the game is actually launching with the f4se loader.exe.
Seems to be a finicky issue with different solutions based on where you look, and can affect ANY .json preset files, so I can't help all that much with this one, and I've never personally experienced this myself so far :/
Thank you for her preset! I'm here to tell my appreciation with the last Fallout 4 update (1.10.984.0 ver) it still just works! I use Vortex for Fallout 4 modding (coz Mod Organizer 2 is for Skyrim, lol), downloaded everything from your recommendations with two exceptions - no 2k textures for face (found here in comments section your another archive with 1k, it helps with no patch needed for 1k deluxe Makeup) and installed whole archive from Oni cute asian face parts with Vortex (coz I don't quite understand how to install it manually) - and her preset pops up in the preset section
Great mod! Just wanna ask tho, any idea on how I get to remove the nasolabial folds same as how your character looks? I thought the face HD textures would fix it but it didn't
If I recall correctly, the issue with HD textures linked is that, while it is the same mod, the face texture I use and have hung onto over the years is a previous version, that does have some slight differences. Let me see if I can dig it up, should be on a drive around here somewhere.
Apologies, I have not found them. Given that I have a newer harddrive since, its likely not on my system and lost, but as always i will continue to keep an eye out.
That is not my channel, no. They featured Josie in a mod video a while ago and if I recall correctly I gave him permission to use her in videos and stuff. Not that I worry much about that these days, but yeah, I had shared them to someone awhile ago, so I can assume they are out there on the net somewhere, or otherwise might be able to ask the channel owner to share em
Not sure if you’re the publisher of the XB1 Josie mod or if someone just ported it (commenting here because Bethesda website doesn’t allow mod comments) if you’re the publisher could you please consider separating the sarcastic jerk preset? most people are only interested in Josie so it just adds additional bloat to the mod, additionally the mod adds hundreds of broken hairstyles which I find unnecessary. I just want the Josie preset and CC that comes with that specific preset, if it could be changed I’d be very happy !
Got the brown face bug and don't have the HD Textures DLC installed and had the Black Face Fix installed to no avail, I'll be waiting until someone manages to find a solution
Edit: Real HD Face Textures was the one causing the issue, I'll look at it further to see if it's possible to somehow get it to run as the preset does look a little 'rough' so to speak without it. But other than that, just don't install that mod if you're ok with the CBBE textures
Edit²: Real HD Face Textures messes the textures up regardless, just don't install it
