0 Aiyen Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 If you disabled the optimized folders and its still a problem, then you most likely have a mod installed that provides textures for it. Try to look though any weapon replacer mods you have installed like Cabal´s or any arrow and bow mods. If you want to make sure that the optimized textures are good, try to move them down to the bottom of your mod list, and then try again. This way all your textures will be your optimized vanilla ones! And they should all work as intended! Remember that you can always replace textures on a save, so you do not need to make a new one every time etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 xzerion Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 thanks for the help...it was book of silence...did not see the hot fix files that the author added in the optional files section. Totally my fault for missing it when downloading the mod but maybe add that specific direction to the detailed instructions portion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Aiyen Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 It is going to be included when he updates next time anyways. Always keep in mind to actually read the description pages of mods, and look at the optional downloads and make sure you got what you need for your list! :) The guides are always going to behind :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Aiyen Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Unstickied this and moved it here, as it is no longer required as a sticky over at the support forum. Anybody with this issue should be linked to the guide posted there instead, since it offers a solution for any problem of this type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 go2kant Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Hello everyone, I recently optimized the vanilla textures textures.bsa from the skyrim data folder in accordance with the DDSpot guide on STEP. Everything looks great BUT I get the entire island of Solstheim purple. Not sure why this is happening. When I turn off the optimized Vanilla textures via Mod Organizer everything is great when I look at Solstheim. But I want to keep the optimized textures. Does anyone have any ideas of how to fix this. Do you the name of the file that handles Solstheim when viewed from Skyrim. As always thanks for the support.

0 Kelmych Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Its hard to know what might cause this. Check the number of files and folders in your vanilla optimized archive files with the numbers shown at the bottom of the "Optimize the Vanilla Textures" subsection in the DDSopt guide to make sure you haven't somehow lost some texture files. DDSopt collapses some monochrome texture files, and you might also check to see if your graphic card has a problem with this. This happens with a very small percentage of graphic cards, but it does happen. Temporarily add back the textures from the original \textures\terrain folder from Dragonborn and HRDLC2 to see if there is a problem with the optimized version of these; restore the optimized versions of this doesn't fix the problem.

0 menmaatre Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I am getting a lot of purple bush or shrubbery textures along the roads in the reach and in Markarth. I don't know what kind of plant it is or what mod its missing from. I have Vurt's floral overhaul and various other texture mods. how do I go about finding it? I assume the purple object means the mesh is there but not the texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Aiyen Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Check the "Howto" in the stickies for finding missing textures. Edit: its in the general Support forum! Might have to change that... hmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 menmaatre Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I am getting purple textures for some kind of shrub in Markarth, the Reach and a few in Solitude. I did some resarch and found that the plant FormID was 0001f239 which is "TreeReachShrub01" and "TreeFloraJuniper01" I looked through all my texture folders and mods and could not find any textures for this plant and I don't know what to do now to replace it. Can anyone help? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 phazer11 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Odd. Do you have HRDLC disabled? Also you could try downloading TreesHD and Skyrim Flora Overhaul again and see if that fixes the problem. I have a feeling it's Skyrim Flora Overhaul and not TreesHD but it can't hurt to try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 phryxolydian Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Came across this purple texture. Must be one of the dirtcliffs, I guess.. I have dirtcliffs01.dds, dirtcliffs01_n.dds and dirtcliffs01_p,dds (from Vivid Landscapes) and dirtcliffsroots01.dds and _n.dds from The Beauty of Skyrim - Caves and Mines. Am I missing a texture?

0 Aiyen Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Try to reinstall said mod. I think you are correct. If that fails then the .... digging must begin! >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 phryxolydian Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Diggin' is done! Turns out Brumbeck had mispackaged SMIM's 1.6 update but he quickly got to it. Current is version 1.6b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Khugan Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Have you ever ran into textures that you can't reduce? I was going through my custom texture folders trying to free up some memory by doing half size normal maps. In game however, I get occasional black areas in the texture like the alpha got changed. It's not all the textures, just a handful. I have tried using dxt5 and 8a compression but it makes no difference. The only solution is to add the 2k normals from the archive and overwrite. The only thing I have not tried is uncompressed, but I guess that would defeat the purpose. Any help would be appreciated. When I say custom, I mean that I have gone through all available texture replacers and hand picked every texture possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Searcher7 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I hope I'm not necro'ing this thread. Problem: "black" texture after following DDSOpt Wiki Guide Particulars: Used S1, S2, S3 settings for optimization Result: "Black" textures on male bodies. Discovered it depended on lighting. Replaced optimized malebody_1_msn.dds with same file from Skyrim-Textures.bsa and issue corrected. I recall reading some warnings about Model Space Normal files (and body textures in general) while checking out optimizations, but I can't find it again. I can't find it on the linked-to Wiki page from the STEP homepage, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Settle down, Kross. I helped you in the thread you made earlier, and so did others. If you think following this guide is tough, try any other one. This one is laid out better and more thoroughly than
