On Eradicator it looks like you are either missing the cape texture, or the cape glow file.  On Doc Doom, it my be that the cape and hood have been "alpha-ed" out.

I'm having a rather weird problem that started after Windows 10 quit being compatible with my graphics card. Now I have random areas being transparent on some skins, without even having an alpha channel. I have an old filter pack that has a way to alter the alpha effects, including the ones that "aren't there", so I can fix it.

I'm assuring that Tiger Shark is missing his fin, and Banshee is missing his "wings". If you would zip up those folders and send them to lonespaceranger@gmail.com I'll look at them. Since I know I have a whonky graphics card, I can't promise that I can fix it, but I'll look and see. I also need to know for sure which mesh you are putting them with.

daglob, thanks for reply my post. I have many problems with skins and meshes created by Courtnall 6 and others that I need instal in male_basic(for example). I don't have these problems with skins created by Beyonder ,  Tommyboy and others that coming with character.nif and keyframes.kf. Do you know why are these problems happening ?

No, I'm not sure. That is why I asked you to send them to me and let me know exactly which mesh they are on. There are several different "male basic" meshes.

This Yahoo Group has quite a lot of information on how to install meshes and fix an assortment of problems:

Thanks, i will join in the group. I resolved the problem with Eradicator and Mon-El created by Courtnall 6 using Male_Cape_Nobelt_Ooleyman. I installed your Amazo a he works fine. Have any alternative male_basic that you recommend ?

There is often a read me file that will tell exactly which mesh it goes on; it could be anywhere in the folder. Sometimes it will say a "hex of [such and such mesh]", so it is worth getting a hex editing program (I think most people use Nifscope) to create hexes from original meshes if the hex is no longer on the internet. Look at this thread:

http://freedomreborn.net/forums/index.php?topic=58687.0

It has a list of active Freedom Force sites on the first page, on the second page there is a list of sites available through The Internet Archive, and a long series of posts listing the Yahoo Groups that still survive.
