Character Creator / faces are Black

For some reason the custom faces made by character Creator are now black, any fix for this issue? I tried renaming the created texture, moved it , tried different formats ect. Still just shows up as black.

validated files, it did replace some files. Then i tested again. Still same issue. Character Creator creates a thumbnail that works, a dds files for the face texture, and an FPE file. Inside that FPE file i see nowhere ,where it points to the textures dds file.

The texture for the face isn't referenced in that FPE, some of the numbers in that long string of numbers under charactercreator reference the model for the head, and the texture for the head is in the FPE for that head style.

Thanks Belidos, I figured those numbers had something to do with it. So I'm guessing the face texture that CC created is supposed to be located , found, in the location that those numbers tell it to. When i create a character it saves to my desktop instead of whatever the default location is. Was hoping to know where that location is.

I figured it out, default location for CC files is : entitybank/user/charactercreator Strange that even after validating my files I had no folder named user, had to create one.
