» Mon Jun 18, 2012 9:13 pm My race uses newly added warpaint and replaced tintmasks. The textures for these are in a separate custom folder and are referenced to only by my race. I have changed/added them using the "Tinting" tab in Race window. Looking at the rest of the CK that's all that should be needed. The problem is that when using warpaint (custom ones) and other face features involving tint masks (eye tint, eye shadow, eyeliner) the game seems to forget to save them.
List of things the save does not store (the rest it does store):
- Eye shadow (replaced texture)
- Eye tint (replaced texture)
- Eye liner (replaced texture)
- Warpaint (custom added on top of the vanilla ones)
The problem can be reproduced as follows:
1) Make a character of the custom race. (Link: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=8583)
2) Make sure it uses one of the items in the list above (excluding having it set at null/nothing).
3) Save.
4) Restart Skyrim.
5) Start Skyrim and load up the save.
6) The eye features mentioned in the list will have reset to the first preset (no eyeshadow, tint, liner) and any custom warpaint will revert to a vanilla warpaint.
Things that seemed odd to me:
Just like the basic races (Nord, Redguard, etc.) I added colorforms to my warpaint. Exactly the same ones and one extra (yes, I tried deleting that one, but it makes no difference). The colorforms all show up normally in my race's Race window, but in the window of the presets it shows the wrong colorforms. Deleting those had no effect; the save remained bugged.
The eyeliner and eyesocket textures have the right colorforms in both the Race and the Preset window though.
Here's what the warpaint problem looks like in the CK:

And loading goes wrong again(it has even selected a vanilla type warpaint to replace my warpaint):
