NPC Head/Body Mismatch, helmet orientation bug, and race mismatch (black heads on white bodies)

[Thiero]

I'm getting several different bugs involving character models, and a bug with the high value targets trait from more traits. As I progress through the game, more characters have bugged/mismatched bodies. Characters from early in my save file are generally normal (I included an image of sunny smiles for a picture of what I consider "normal"), but by the time I reached Primm, several character have developed strange mismatches, and a few female characters have "bendy" arms.

When taking the high value targets trait, the assassins that come after me are wearing security armour, the helmet of which is oriented 90 degrees to the side.

 

I'm not really sure what to do here, I've checked my ini files in MO and in default locations, and all of them have bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles = 1 under [General]. I also made sure archive invalidation is checked in profiles.

Try reinstalling FCO and type 3.

Is the AchiveInvalidation.bsa the first entry in any lists it's in when you look at the 'archives' tab on MO?

Yes, it's greyed out and the first in the list. I have "have MO manage archives" ticked as well.

 

Try reinstalling FCO and type 3.

Tried redownloading, hit a snag and will re-attempt to later. I did, however, reinstall with the archives I already have and checked the size of the archives, and it appears to match the file sizes listed on the respective nexus pages.

Redownloading and installing didn't work, on either existing or new saves. Visual issues are constant across saves, down to individual npcs.

I don't see anything wrong with that, so here's the thing to do: 

 

1. The bodies could be a problem with FCO. It has those. The alternative is getting New Vegas Redesigned 3. There are install instructions in the stickied comment on the Nexus page. There should also be a video linked there.
2. The vault 34 armor problem can be solved by checking which mod supplies the file "armor\headgear\vaultsecurityhelmet\m\vaultsecurityhelmet_skinned.nif" under MO's Data tab.
3. The arms seems to be a problem with Type 3. The only alternative would be switching to another body replacer.
