Skeletal mesh tearing problem

[calranthe]

PLEASE read before assuming it is a (oh you need a different skeletal thing)

Okay this is a problem that has bugged me pretty much day one of running certain mods on oblivion

The three main mods that cause the issue are

Lovers creatures (mushroom or hipotode the armor/item the male attaches to you)

Cursed armor, the black armor and insect armor.

new succubus mod the outfit you wear.

It is the problem when your breasts or body parts mesh seem to tear off into the distance.

I have tried every type of max compatible skeleton some tear more others less but none fix it.

At first I thought it may be an omod overwriting the new skeletals so I reinstalled MBP1.4a++117 etc manually, I have HGEC Body omod 1.21 no idea if that could be a problem.

I am willing to try anything.

One day I would just like to play this game without the icky textures tearing.

sorry to say from the sound of it is a skeleton problem. did you also try lovers nichy skeleten.nif file ?? So far that is the only nif file i never had any problem with any tearing in it when i was still playing oblivion. those other maxim where never created for any lovers mods. so who knows what they have done with it.

Does no harm to try

it is not just replacing the skeleton you need to use archive invalidation in OBMM afterwards to validate your new nif file. or else you would still not see any difference.

When I press the archive invalidation, I get lots of options which I have no idea which one to select lol

I use BSA invalidation and have all the file types to include checked.

under other options i have ignore normal maps checked and then use update now.

You could also try this mod calranthe, ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated found on Tesnexus: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=10724

I feel so stupid, I went through all the skeletons I have downloaded in the last six months and all of them work if Archive Invalidation is turned on.
