Issue #24948: Glowing Hounds BGSM and Texture files: Possible missing texture/file upload corruption - Xbox

 
Issue:
Glowing Mutant Hounds glow whitish purple on Xbox.

Solution:
Emittance Color correction from White to Green. Adjusted Emittance Multiplier to 0.50. Changed Alpha Test Reference from 128 to -128 (but the file did not keep negative number and saved as 0). Added path to cubemap found on original FEVHound.BGSM (CK would not allow me to pack archive without cubemap path for some reason).

Archiving only the corrected BGSM file resulted in a purely green hound.

Only by extracting the glowing texture and repacking it for Xbox, did the hound show up properly in-game.

Tested and working on Xbox. As it requires uploading files created by you all, I will not be uploading it outside of drafts on Bethesda.net without permission. I uploaded for testing purposes only; however, if permission for public upload is granted, I do not mind hosting a temporary fix until a permanent solution is verified and uploaded.

Xbox One plugin and loose and archived files attached in zip file.

Additional Notes:
This issue was brought to my attention on Bnet by a new user of UFO4P after I'd recommended he start using it. Verified his results on my own Xbox.
I have no idea what to put for 'severity'. As this is not a game-breaking issue, left it at 'very low'.
Also, I could not find where anyone had submitted a similar bug report. Apologies if I've overlooked it or if you've already fixed this on your end. I am unfamiliar with exactly what needs to be put into the search in order to produce the desired results.
Testing was done with multiple mods loaded. I have used the mods in the past and have no recollection of glowing white hounds. :tongue:

Definately worthy of fixing and deserves a higher severity rating. Bright white hounds ever since installing f4up and I have no other mods installed.

This still hasn't been fixed after two years! I don't get why they don't implement your fix.
