Does anyone know how to break this down for dummies? Like explain what each slider does to the visual effect? --Omzy 20:02, 15 June 2006 (EDT)

Need help with specific effect shader

Does anyone know how to make a membrane type effect shader that's transparent but slightly blurry? The effect shader menu in the CS baffles me. --Qarl 18:54, 17 December 2006 (EST)

How do you bring up the effect shader GUI? can't find it... WHERE???

I am using CS 1.2.404

It is not a menu, but an object in the CS. It is listed on the left side bar under Miscellaneous. --DKong27 19:34, 14 February 2011 (EST)

Skin Only Shading Fix

If you have attempted to use the Affect Skin Only option, you may have noticed it doesn't work on female bodies. After hours of messing with the models and textures, I finally found the reason. It seems Bethesda (and in turn body modders) capitalised "Skin" in the female body NIFs for the name of the NiMaterialProperty. It seems the game only recognises lower case "skin" when deciding if the texture is skin or not. Change that capital and female bodies will work with Skin-Only shading.

Now to try to fix the issue of the skin-only effect disappearing when you can't see the person's eyes...
