Winterized T51-a Texture Issues [2021 EDIT: Fix in OP]

Post by Manan » Wed Jan 11, 2017 2:36 am

Hi there. Just finished the Anchorage DLC and upon looting the armory, I was greeted with a set of T51-a Winterized Power Armor that I presume is from the Power Armor Redistrubted mod. I am using patches for it to work alongside Book of Steel and TTW. However, I equipped it and saw that it was in poor condition and strangely NOT impervious to damage a wonderful texture bug that I'm not used to ever happening unless I'm running 9,001 plugins(in which case literally EVERYTHING in the game would be acting this way). I have not experienced this issue anywhere else on this installation of New Vegas.
My load order: http://pastebin.com/zAr8fSeH


Feel free to nitpick my load order or ask for clarifications about it.


EDIT FROM THE FUTURE: I just ran into this problem again in 2021 and I figure I'll tell anyone who finds this how to fix it. The issue is caused by Power Armor Distribution Overhaul's Book of Steel patch, which changes a texture set (PADOTextureT51Winter) to point to diffuse and glow maps that I don't think were actually included in PADO. Just removing the record from Power Armor Distribution Overhaul - Book of Steel Patch probably works okayish, but I decided to use FNVedit to make a more polished fix. In a merged patch plugin, use the filepaths from the original PADO esp for the Base Image and Normal Map fields. Then, in the Environment Map and Environment Map Mask fields, we're gonna take the filepaths that PADO's Book of Steel Patch added. Finally, we're gonna replace the defunct Glow Map with another one from PADO that actually made it into its archive. Put
"Armor\t-51bpowerarmor\t-51b powerarmor_g.dds"
into the Glow Map field.

Please read the FAQ about mods which are incompatible with TTW.


YUP is going to be your main problem there, also probably something installed wrong with PA Overhaul.

Fix found

Alright, I'll investigate those, thank you. Fingers crossed that it's YUP...

EDIT: It wasn't YUP. Found the fix years later. Detailed in the OP for anyone who might need it.
