No arms, tried everything

[Adeladen]

I've reinstalled skyrim like 3 times now cause there are no arms. I have run FNIS in administrator mode AFTER i have installed all the other mods, i have the xp32 skeleton and i have realistic ragdolls and force. It still doesn't work, i have no idea why and i'm stuck, please help.

Please post (in a SPOILER) your mod list. It can be useful to understand what is going on.

With "no arms" you mean: the full arms of the NPC are not rendered? Or, the arms of the NPCs are rendered in a weird way?

[Adeladen]

They're like going inside the body, how do i post my mod list? I'll just write the ones i remember installing.

CBBE

xp32 skeleton

apache hair styles or whatever it's called

temptress race

zaz animation pack

realistic force
evil lair of hydra
skip opening cutscene & intro

skyui

skse

showracemenu precache killer
htd physics extension
htd boobs and butt physics 

sexlab framework

all parts of fnis

OK, probably you are not using a mod manager, if you have no easy way to check what are the mods you are using.

Consider using Mod Organizer or Nexus Mod Manager.

 

Now, if the arms are going inside the body, the possibilities are:

* Wrong installed skeleton: download and install Groovtama's XPMSE.

* HDT cwrong config: try to disable it, and test, and maybe re-install it.

Installed the thing, ran fnis, doesn't work. What's HDT cwrong config? Oh and i forgot to mention that my temptress only has a weird black mouth, rest of the head is gone. And i can't move with my temptress from my previous save, although that is probably because it is a save from a previous installation.

I had this issue on a (sorta) new save after installing Requiem for some reason, and it seemed to be a bug with the ZAZ bound animations between the saves(I had a save after the horse carriage intro, but before character creation). I don't know if this will help, but this is how I got it fixed. Press Esc and go into the 'MCM Mod Options' and look for your 'ZAZ Animations Pack' settings. Under 'Player Control Center', select  'Release'(under Player AI) and 'Restore'(under Player Controls) then go into the console, and "epc" or "enableplayercontrols."

 

That's how I got mine to work, and after I did that it hasn't happened since. Hope this helps.

You should install a mod and check if this mod was the problem, it makes no sense to reintsall the game if you're doing the same mistake over and over again.

Don't load a save, dont start a new game... when trouble shooting go strait to the Bethesda test room.

 

at the main menu bring up the console and type in "coc qasmoke"

This will default you to a male character and place you in the Bethesda test room.

Now undress your character (so you can see if all the body parts show up correctly for the next step)

 

Next bring up the console again and type in "showracemenu".

Now change the sex to female and see if the body is screwed up in any way shape or form.

If the default female nord is okay, then go to the race section of race menu and go down to the custom race you were using and see if it loads correctly.

If you have no issues at this point, then you can verify it is either in the way you are starting the game (bound animation stuck on character) or in the previous save from a different drive calling on textures that are not in your current load order / texture path.

 

 

If you can load the save from a previous drive and get a missing face, bring up race menu via the console option, switch presets on that race and see if the head comes back.... if it does then this verifies the save was calling on the wrong texture file for the head.

 

 

Note: you listed you use CBBE as your main race type (your second post where you listed what you had installed), but you also listed the temptress race and that you have an old save with that race. I have only seen the temptress race in either UNP and UNPB (Temptress off of Nexus and Angelic Temptress off of LL). So if your armor replacer sets are cbbe, then your temptress race unp/unpb body and texture set may not line up correctly with the main armors like iron, steal, leather, etc).... Just figured I'ld point that out.

As soon as i change races the arms get strange. Temptress is just a male nord. Temptress did work just fine for me the last time i had it with CBBE, the animations didn't work tho. Oh i just opened the race menu with my existing temptress, first she bace nightmare fuel then she actually became fine. Everything works
Gonna try UNP or UNPB and see if that looks better than CBBE. On my last save my character walked very femininely, forgot what mod did that tho. I have HDT breast and butt physics, thought that was the only thing i needed. Could you guys say which walk animation mod is the best?
*edit* oh and i would like to know what your favorite nude mod is.
*edit* the girls in the evil lair of hydra aren't naked, they have underwear on, how do i change this? I have CBBE installed, my character is naked. Same thing with bathing beauties.
*edit* zaz animation pack doesn't seem to be working. can't see it in the mcm or any of the spells, only have the asx spells.
