Glitchy Hair Mini Discovery?
« on: March 07, 2012, 12:30:01 PM »
Yes it's shmeeee again. Again, sorry if this is in the wrong section.

When you play as Zoe, Lola or Pinky, they have glitchy hair, which flashes back and fourth between the texture and the silver model. I've noticed something in the nft files (via nifskope) about the characters;

Glitchy characters Zoe, Lola, and Pinky have 6 texture strings. They're models don't include the hair, only the face, and outfit, and the hair texture is just a seperate string. I think, it's because of the way they are set in free roam. They only have 2 outfits, one of which is only used in winter.

Jimmy can change outfits, so he doesn't have 1 set outfit. I think that may be one of the reasons why the hair is glitchy.

The non-glitchy characters, Beatrice, Mandy, Christy, Angie & Eunice, have only 3 texture trings. The hair and outfit is included on one texture.

I think the reason above is also why you don't have glitchy boy's outfits, as they all have 3 texture strings.

I think I've found the cause for the glitchy hair, but I can't remedie it. I've tried countless things, but I'm not a modding genius. I hope this post makes sense. Does anyone know how to fix these things?

Once I finish with the lua scripts I will be able to fix that.

and I do know exactly what you are talking about since I also have noticed that when playing as a different character other then jimmy.

and no...this is not in the wrong section since you are asking for a little help with that. Soon as I finish with the lua scripts and crack out a tutorial on how to edit them and what not....I will release a way to play as any character with complete full stat and all without touching ide or swapping clothing models with ped models.

I cannot give a eta on this but I should have some updates on this pretty soon if things go ok.

So... this can be the main reason for glitchy silver textures? Like crabblesnitch or edna.

yup.

The characters really never were intended to be swapped around with jimmy's outfits to be able to play as them so it will be very buggy.

The lua scripts control basicly who is who and what is what...with the sole exception of the default.idb which I will also take some more looks at soon to see if I can figure out how that is encoded since it is still a mystery to me and likely everyone else here too.
