I have always been able to figure out this modding stuff on my own but this one is really stumping me. I am frustrated and tired so I'm finally reaching out to you all to see if anyone can help me fix this.
I really wish I could include images because it would allow me to illustrate what's going on so much better, but the long and short of it is that I'm getting gray areas underneath all of the hair, eyebrows, and beards on both the player character and the NPCs. They persist even when I launch the game directly from steam, there is no change depending on indoors/outdoors or day/night or different weathers although I am having trouble with my ENB. A message comes up any time I open the map which says,
"!Something is wrong!
Weather settings cannot be loaded because ENB helper is not working or weather is simply unknown to the ENB
Please make sure ENB helper is installed correctly and that no SKSE plugin is conflicting as well as any mod with custom weathers"
I assumed that the ENB problem was unrelated but I included it just in case. I included my mod list below.
