My Fallout NV mods are now as is. I can't troubleshoot any issues as I haven't played, nor modded, the game in a over a year. If you have issues with any of my mods, and you can't find an answer in the comments, it'd be best to ask on the Fallout NV Mods forum. There's likely people there who still play the game and can better help you.


Description:
==========
One male and five female characters made entirely in the ingame facegen.

If using the savegames:
All characters are saved in Doc Mitchell's house, just before using the SPECIAL machine (I forget the name of it).
If you're using a body replacer you'll be standing in your birthday suit. If you're not you'll be wearing your underwear :-)

The savegames have no mods attached.

At the moment there are only Caucasians and Hispanics.

I haven't included the head meshes or face textures I use. You'll have to go and get those yourself.
See Recommendations below.

The savegames go in a different folder and, if you use the recommended mods (which include custom textures and meshes) all NPC's will use them, too.
The other file contains an esp with all the faces as presets.

You'll need the face textures (and head mesh for the male one) if you want them to look the same as mine in your game. If you use anything other than vanilla they should still look alright, just not the same.

Included so far are:
Caucasian - Rose, Taya, Clio, Felix
Hispanic - Jane, Kat


Recommendations:
================
These faces were originally made for Fallout 3. You can find that version here.


+ These are the mods I use to have my female characters look as they do:

Dimonized Female Races and Textures Beta (FO3)

Copy only these files into your Data/Textures/Characters/Female folder:
  • headhuman.dds
  • headhuman_n.dds

OR

Project Mikoto Beauty Pack

All its files are bundled in a BSA but upon extracting it has face textures. So, if you already have this you don't need the Dimonized mod above.
None of the saves are dependant upon this mod, it's just listed here as an alternative.
Naturally Mikoto will conflict with any other cosmetic mod, please read its page for more information.

Vanilla not recommended.

ThrottleKitty's Head Fixes

Copy these files into your Data/Meshes/Characters/Head folder:
  • HeadFemale.nif
  • HeadFemale.tri
  • HeadFemale.egm

OR

Eyelashes New Vegas by ThrottleKitty

It includes the head fixes from FO3 as well as a few other things which may be useful.


+ These are the mods I use to have my male characters look as they do:

Better Male Face
  • Copy the files into your Data/Meshes/Characters/Head folder


Younger Male Face
  • Copy the files into your Data\Textures\Characters\Male folder


Note: If you can't live without facial hair on your male character then Better Male Face will limit you in what you can have due to clipping with some styles.

///
To summarise...

For the female faces you'll need:
Dimonized Female Races and Textures Beta (FO3) -OR- Project Mikoto Beauty Pack (choose one as both contain the face texture)
AND
ThrottleKitty's Head Fixes -OR- Eyelashes New Vegas (choose one as both contain the same head mesh)

For the male face:
Better Male Face -AND- Younger Male Face
///

Install:
=====
The default location for save files is: My Documents/My Games/FalloutNV/Saves
The esp goes in your Fallout NV Data folder. It doesn't really matter where it goes in your load order. Although if another mod has edited presets then loading this one after it/them will ensure the faces show up when you cycle through them at the start of a new game.


Other Stuff:
==========
If you want to use any of the faces on your own savegame, or wish to start in another location other than Doc Mitchell's house you will need Facegen Exchange for FNV to copy the face data from my files onto yours. It's pretty easy to use.
Input file would one of my faces, output file is your save. For best results and a more accurate 'face transplant' the two saves must be the same race, and preferably the same gender ;-)


Mods Shown in Screenshots:
===========
Satchels (an old version)
Roberts Male Body
Type3 Body & Armor Replacer
Project Mikoto Beauty Pack
The outfit Felix wears, with the red t-shirt, is a mash-up I did. I don't remember all the mods I used in that, and I can't find them here.
