Dimitri Mazieres' DB Armor Replacer and Matthew's Suran Underworld 2.5 are two mods I really appreciate, I've played older versions of SU many times before and I always find myself coming back for it.

I recently found Dimitri's DB armor replacer and thought it looked much better than the original,
but when I use both, this happens:

Their heads are missing.


It doesn't happen when I encounter a normal DB assassin:

...or when I put his armor on myself:

The BloodFang Tong armor still uses old DB armor meshes and textures (and icons) when placed in inventory or on the ground, only the cuirass and the hood looks different on a body (makes head disappear and so on).

How do I proceed to clean this mess up? It has been years since I modded anything, and all I ever did was build castles. :facepalm:

Can I replace all the BloodFang Tong armor with Dimitris version? What would be the best solution here?

It might be related to Divine Domina, see http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1047013&hl=.

I'm not running the Divine Domina mod, but there are a few files included called "A_Dbmina_skin.NIF" and "Tx_A_Dbmina_C.dds", could those be related to DD?


Suran Underworld 2.5:

I tried loading the DB armor replacer last as suggested in the other thread, but it didn't help. Inactivating the DB replacer makes the BloodFang Tong armor look normal though.

I would like to try and make SU 2.5 not load the armor in the replacer and just stick to the old original armor, how do I do that?

:shocking: Thread necromancy!

But with a good reason: I have just looked into it and found the problem. The DB Armor replacer changes the Body Part for the Dark Brotherhood Helmet (ID: A_DarkBrotherhood_Helmet) from "Head" to "Hair". So when both mods are active, Suran Underworld is left without a Body Part for the BloodFang Helm (ID: a_bloodfang_helm). To use both mods in conjunction, you'd need to change the Armor part "a_bloodfang_helm" to
Biped Object: Hair
Male Armor: A_DarkBrotherhood_Helmet
Trouble is that you'll end up with headless Thugis again if you decide to uninstall the DB Armor replacer.
