Wigs - Chameleon not working

Post » Thu Sep 09, 2010 12:46 pm

Since there are no hats in the game, and my current character doesn't want helmets or hoods, I figured I'd try some wigs.

But when trying on some wigs from mods (Apachii Goddess Store) I've noticed that chameleon or invisibility does not appear to affect the wig. (With some mods it does work, but not Apachii)

In other word the character and all worn items become transparent and the wig is still solid.

Does anyone know what causes this, and if there is a way to fix it -- maybe with the construction set?

Thanks.

It's an intended effect - you can't hid kick-ass hair. :P

Sorry that's not helpful in the slightest, but I don't know why that happens, I've never used the mod myself. IIRC the wigs are set up as some weird thing to work around various issues, could be a creature stuck to your head or something. The effect is probably not carried across because you don't actually 'equip' the wig - it doesn't take up an inventory slot, IIRC. I'm not sure how you'd work around that. :shrug:

That sounds interesting. If AGS wasn't so dang big I'd be tempted to download just to see how the wigs are set up.

What about Slof's Wigs? Are they still available, or were they removed, or am I just making that mod up? If they do exist and you can download a copy, try the wigs in that mod out, see if the same thing happens.

I didn't try Slof, but I did try Slappy's Wigs.Chameleon and invisibility affect Slappy's Wigs.

I was just wondering if there is some setting that needs to be changed in the CS. I also don't know if this has any effect on how well chameleon will actually work on your character.

Unfortunately the wig(s) I want is from Apachii not Slappy's

It is overkill, particularly if just interesting in the wig. That's the only think this character wants from Apachii Goddess Shop, because headgear is so limited in the game. That and a circlet (headband).

I thought they where

Selene Fall Hair Wigs..that is what is listed in readme..

I would say it most likely the something related to texture itself for it not to work, or could be some setting in the nif that needs to be adjusted.
