So a couple days ago I made a post about my Skyrim textures being all messed up, well I deleted my Skyrim files from the steamapps folder and re-installed it, now it is less messed.

 

Before it was that every texture was one singular color, but now all the objects are have their actual textures and all the particles are one singular color.

 

Please help if you can.

 

Thanks for your time.

What color? I know that a missing texture gives off this odd purple color to objects. I've also seen textures go black when the graphics card doesn't have enough vram (in addition to performance problems associated with not having enough vram).

Yeah, its kind of a light purple.

Also, I have an overclocked GTX 970, so vram shouldn't be an issue.

Entirely depends on your mod setup.  Have you tested without any mods?

Make sure you only use "Skyrim Special Edition mods" for "Skyrim SE", and Skyrim mods for the original version of Skyrim.

No mods installed, another thing is that I checked file integrity or something on Steam, it is saying that it's missing a file and that it will be reacquired, it hasn;t done antything yet though. Any ideas as to what I should do? 

 

Sorry for the late response.

 

Thanks for your time.

You can let steam try and fix it.  If the problem persists you can outright delete the BSA's and ESM's in "$:\SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\skyrim\Data"

Probably just skyrim.esm and skyrim.bsa or maybe the 3 from the high resolution packs if you're on the original skyrim.  The "special edition" has more BSA files and they're named slightly differently

BSA's are basically a zip of the game files, ESM's are...kinda like a file allocation system for the BSAs.  So there could be an issue with either(probably bsa)

 

If you're lucky, and can perfectly identify which texture is missing by which area(s) they're in with a screenshot the folks on the nexus or AFKMods may be able to tell you exactly which texture/mesh file set has gone awry (ie: fxsmokenecroanim.dds, fxsmokepuffanim04.dds, fxsmokesoftsub.dds... etc).

Alternatively, you may try downloading a mod that does these particles and let that "fix" it by installing the loose files in "\Data\textures\effects\" folder.  Though, it would be better, and safer, to do so through a mod organizer.

Quick search brought some mods up for both Special edition and OldRim.
