Common Issues and Troubleshooting

Even a great mod can have hiccups. Here is how to fix them: Common Issues and Troubleshooting Even a great mod

Issue: "Hair is invisible on my character."

Solution: You downloaded the physics version but do not have HDT-SMP installed correctly. Either install Faster HDT-SMP or re-download the non-physics version.

Issue: "Hair clips through armor/body."

Solution: This is a limitation of all hair mods. Use RaceMenu to scale or reposition the hair. Many HG styles are designed to work with vanilla and CBBE bodies; custom armors may clip.

Issue: "FPS drops to single digits during combat."

Solution: Too many physics hairs active at once. Disable the NPC distribution for physics hairs using xEdit, or switch to the non-physics main file.

Visual Quality

Maxis Match style – blends perfectly with EA’s art direction (no alpha shine).
Smooth textures – decent highlights and natural-looking roots.
Variety – includes bobs, ponytails, braids, side-swept looks, and a few half-up styles.
Clumping – minimal; doesn’t look overly clay-like.

Let it overwrite any loose files (usually none).

Installation Tips

Use a mod manager like Mod Organizer 2 (MO2) or Vortex.
Ensure you have Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE64) and RaceMenu installed first.

If you encounter hairs that look shiny or metallic, you may need to adjust your graphics settings or ensure you have the correct texture pathing, though this is rarely an issue with the SSE port.
