Approximately 3 months ago, I suddenly encountered an annoying error in Skyrim. The faces were the same color as the body, but their tint was slightly off. Usually a bit darker. It is not like the ' grey face bug' Â that happens with CK NPCs or any other bug I've read about before.
I couldn't fix this issue no matter what I did. Reinstalled Skyrim 3 times, re-downloaded Skyrim via Steam and even re-installed my entire Win7 64bit, formatted SSD drive and tried many different drivers. But vanilla Skyrim still seemed to have the same problem and I had no diea where it came from.
I made sure the Data folder was always in a vanilla state. Or so I thought. Today I found out that there was a 'Shaderfx' Â folder in /Data. I always assumed this was from vanilla, since it was even there when I re-downloaded it via Steam. After having removed that folder, the face bug is gone.
What gives? I am 100% sure it is not mod related... Anyone else ever had this? Where does that folder come from?
