    PC Directx? What is this madness?!

    The window has four tabs at the top: System, Display, Sound, and Input. At the bottom the buttons are, from left to right, Help, Run 64-bit DxDiag, Next Page, Save All Information, and Exit. Really nothing else to click; all just info. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit, if that helps. The System...

    PC Directx? What is this madness?!

    Well, now I've found THOSE. Thanks. Looks like a mess, though. Why aren't all the relevant Directx files in their own folder? ^^' Downloading an external d3d9.dll is very much advised against. Besides, simply having a d3d9.dll isn't my problem; the d3d9.dll should have been there in the first...

    PC Directx? What is this madness?!

    I am unbelievably confused. My Windows 7 system came with Directx 11 installed. Whenever I install Skyrim, Steam still feels the need to install Directx 10. What the heck? Isn't Skyrim Directx 11 compatible? Where are the install folders for these Directx programs kept? Where can I find their...

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    My gosh, it's such a rare problem, it's almost relieving to find someone else who's dealing with this. I haven't played in weeks; Xaihady's sitting at Heljarchen with a discolored head and missing me :'( This just doesn't make sense. At all. And it freaks me out. I've found threads as early as...

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    Yes, of course thank you Silas; I'm just frustrated and annoyed. So....after banging a bruised forehead on the issue for a while, I've determined to do some digging and fish up the root of the problem myself. So...I don't know if I should post this somewhere else, but I'd appreciate it if...

    Thank you, but that's the solution for a totally different problem.

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    I screwed around with a couple of things in the creation kit. Didn't really know what I was about, though. I KNOW Skyrim isn't supposed to look like this. The pictures above are low quality, but the color difference is sickeningly obvious in game, even after using body and face replacer mods...

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    So I moved my entire Steam install to another drive. It changed nothing. I fiddled around with shades in the creation kit, but there's really nothing that allows you to alter face and body colors separately. I'm totally stumped. Vanilla Skyrim is not supposed to be like this; I know, I've...

    I imagine I'd have to move my steam installation there as well? If it fixes the problem, I'm certainly willing. EDIT: Figured it out and moved the whole Steam whopper to another drive. I'll try it out in the morning. Keeping my fingers crossed! X

    I've already posted there, friend. Twice, regarding different problems within this same issue. This is the kind of predicament where I need to look for help everywhere so I don't miss any somewheres and, thus, somepeoples.

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    I uninstalled and deleted every mod. Then I uninstalled NMM, for good measure. Something's seriously wonky. You saw my pictures of CK character previews? The only plugins loaded when I took those were Skyrim.esm and Update.esm. I KNOW other people have had this problem; I've hunted down...

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    I stored the old versions of my game folders on my desktop, which I believe is actually part of the C drive. That's honestly the only answer I can possibly think of. I'll move them to another drive and see what happens.

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    Can do So my regular saved game was running No More Blocky Faces, as well as Better Males for the...well, males; as far as skin, skin textures, skin colors, normal maps, or anything skin, face, or body related, that was it. I'm pretty dang sure I DID NOT have this problem before. I'm worried...

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    Dagmar - That's where the install folder is. In the SteamApps folder. The Skyrim folder; that's the install. Iveri Sarothil - Um, let me check...okay, so it looks like it just updated something. I'll go see if anything's changed. Thanks! :) EDIT: Yeah, that didn't do anything either. At least...

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    I deleted all the files from My Documents, dumped the whole Skyrim install folder and the folder in Appdata, turned off steam cloud and automatic updates, and purged anything else Skyrim or related to Skyrim that I know of from my system. I've reinstalled THREE times this way, to no avail. Did I...

    Bump. I'm incredibly pissed at the whole situation. How is this even possible? I need help!

    Character discoloring even after clean install

    After 250+ hours of Skyrim gameplay without once hitting coloring problems, I decided to test out Beauty Faces for Females and Xenius's Detailed Faces and Detailed Bodies. Being dissatisfied with the former, I uninstalled it, decided to try out the latter two, and lo and behold, my character's...
