Vampire with too light tattoos

prtpj1ub17_ESO

Recently I did notice my argonian vampire wasnt showing any tattoo which I tried to apply.
Changing tattoo, I did notice if is a black tattoo, it will vanishing according to skin will becoming white with vampire stages.
Bright white tattoos like Psijic, its a bit better to see on body.

First SS a tattoo on stage 4 and the second SS a tattoo on stage 1 (even on stage 1, its very light)





There is a fix for it?

It makes no logical sense due to the physics of how tattoos work, it encourages you to either lose vampire or avoid tattoos (sorry, no crown purchases for my vamps), and is a bug due to how the vampire effect is counted as a "skin" and applies over most (not all) tattoos.

But here we are 4 years later with some folk begging zos for a "human" skin in the crown store.

Sure, but its unfair to who bought/got tattoos. Pale skin? Sure, i have no prob with that but vampirism also vanishes black ink? Best solution? Get amberplasm skin and apply tattoo.

You misunderstand- I am agreeing that vampirism should (at the least) not fade tattoos.

My character is a Vampire and the tattoos are very much visible, no problems there.

Maybe it's a bug for Argonian skin? Since their skin is mostly scales.

Can you post a picture of your not faded tattoo? I know some are exempt (example, buoyant armiger face tattoo).

I did notice when we use tattoos on argonians, the skin changes. Lose almost scale details
(I did cure my vampirism)

Without tattoos = full scales and details choosed on toon creation


With a black tattoo (notice how skin lose scales)


This make me think this issue is a "layer" problem.

First layer = toon original skin
Second layer = clear skin for tattoos
Third layer = vampire effect which add a white filter

But cant be so simple..

The problem is that simple. The solution isn't. For example, imagine how odd characters would look if they had their tattoos applied over skin meshes in some cases.

On second thought, let's do this.

But when you use lava skin, you dont want see your tattoos right?

Yes. Here's how the tattoo looks like:

Blast from the past, yet still a problem. Mostly caused by a layering issue with the tattoo cosmetics and the vampire skin itself. So the vampire skin is layered over it causing the faded effect since the vampire skin is semi transparent.
