I'm having trouble now, as the Hazel eyes are completely grey, and the Blue/Ghoul eyes are pink. And not only that, but I'm trying to use a patch to fix this too, as without the patch for this, I get double iris on EVERY eye option
I've come across a few NPC's so far from A World of Pain and NCR Troopers (I have NCR Trooper Overhaul - Distributed) whose eyes are fixed to the right with this mod enabled, I have the compatibility patches for both mods though I don't know If they're only for the FCO mod and not this one, The NPC's eyes go back to centre once I disable the mod on MO, but I do quite like these eyes.
If anyone is still getting double eyes even when the esp is at the bottom of the load order then you'll have to manually open up the mod with winrar/zip and copy the eye meshes (.nif, .egt, and .egm extensions) from "meshes\characters\drumber\eyes" to the vanilla directory in "data\meshes\characters\head", you'll probably have to overwrite. That solved it for me anyway; New Vegas Redsigned changes the races of a lot of npcs, so the npc weren't getting the correct path for the eyes.
However, there are certain NPCs that still have the buggered double eye mesh (appears to be mostly/entirely African-American NPCs). I'm using NVR3 as well (Qwinn version). Also whatever dead NPCs that are modified by NVR3 and have the 'dead' eye textures will have eyes without any pupils.
Is there any way to actually get this working with NVR3? Shame, because I prefer the FCO eyes to the ones from NVR3 (especially the raider eyes).
Thanks man for finally helping me fix this what felt like a nigh unfixable issue. I have FCO 2.3.1 installed alongside this and the only meshes that gave me double iris were the male human children until I copied the left and right eye meshes for them from this mod into the vanilla folder. Thanks again!
I was able to fix this (as far as I can tell) with some trial and error. The reason everyone was having double eyeballs was that Drumber probably meant to have a Drumber folder in the texture folders to avoid overwriting the base game eye textures with his very nice ones which do not work on the base game meshes - hence the double eyes when drumber textures were applied to base game meshes.
To fix it, I changed the file hierarchy like this: FCO - Eyes (top level) -> textures -> characters -> CREATE a folder name drumber here -> eyes -> all the .dds files
Then, open FNVEdit (I do so through MOD Organizer as described on the great http://wiki.step-project.com/User:Essarrbee/FalloutNewVegas page) I then apply the Filter for Cleaning so I can see where the mod differs from the base game file.
Where the Eyes line differs (it's yellow) I then changed the ICON - Texture record to point the the larger textures in the new texture hierarchy (Characters\drumber\Eyes\eyeGreen.dds instead of the basegame using Characters\Eyes\eyeGreen.dds) in the FCO - Eyes mod. Do this for each of the eye colour that differs between the falloutnv.esm and the fco - eye.esm.
I got fancy and added each of the races from the base game to the fco - eye mod as well and set all of their eye meshes and textures to use drumber's ones.
I then made sure it did not conflict with anything else in the slew of mods I use or the base game or DLCs and pronounced it clean.
If Drumber is still active just let me know and I can send the fixed (and expanded to all the base races in the game) mod to him to put up. It's still 100% Drumber's work, I just fixed it so it wouldn't overwrite the base game eye textures where we didn't want it to, resulting in double eyes. I also added more races so the mod will apply to all human races of all ages.
Beautiful work, Drumber, I hope my edits and additions let more people enjoy it!
PS Works just fine as a standalone and runs great through mod organizer so it doesn't overwrite my base game files. Not a big fan of the FCO faces, I just wanted the eyeballs to look better!
I'm generally having trouble trying to follow this without the double pupils still showing up at the end of it. I'm using MO and can easily manipulate the files into the new directory format @Quijibo here describes - (Characters\drumber\Eyes\eyeGreen.dds). I follow up to this point and open FNVEdit to where I'm supposed to see the Eyes section filtered with a yellow line once applying a filter for cleaning.
I then apply the filter for cleaning but no matter what there is no yellow line through the "Eyes" section, which is telling me that there's no conflict of any kind (Yes the FCO - Eyes.esp is at the very bottom below Bashed Patch). Upon exploring the FCO - Eyes.esp I can not for the life of me figure out this part as it just gives me a list of FormIDs and EditorIDs for all of the different eyes the mod adds in. On the right side of the interface the conventional method of editing a record is non-existent as there's no comparison with falloutnv.esm. This is basically where I get lost, not to mention that the "Eyes line" is completely white for me.
I'm running FCO 3.0 and the necessary patches it comes with (Beyond Boulder Dome etc). Practically nearly every NPC especially ones from mods have been fixed from their eyes looking to the right thanks to this mod, however it seems to give every child NPC the unearthly demon lizard double pupil eyes.
If anybody has had any sort of luck with fixing the child NPCs eyes from their demonic state please do point us in the right way!
I've already used the HighRes eye textures and they don't really do anything since the FCO.esm points all eye textures down a different file path. I've also tried looking for this 'child eye fix' to no avail that is apparently used for TTW. I've search high and low on Google and it seems pretty hit and miss, so I'm wondering if anyone can help with some editing in FNVEdit?
I'm sure it would help out others experiencing this problem too!
EDIT: May I also add that certain NPCs like Ghouls also suffer from their eyes looking washed out like a milky white. I believe this may be connected to the eye mesh not fitting the face issue and may help toward finding the problem...
After I de-activated, and re-activated FCO in FOMM the issue sorted itself out. I have FCO esm after Vegas Redesigned, and the FCO esps at the bottom of my load order. All the double eyed snake people are gone, woohoo!!!

Eyes for Vanilla fixes the double iris problem!!

Thanks for the work by the way, even if we don't get to use it.
