Guys, if you're up to quality, use hipoly heads, please.
Honestly, no matter what RaceMenu\ECE can offer you, no matter what textures you use, everything is totally annihilated when you use vanilla head meshes.
I'm not saying you must toss out all the new morphs and stuff, but those edgy noses, six vertices chins and texture distortion really make my eyes bleed.
Yesterday I wanted to replay Skyrim, thought OK, new PC let me try special edition. I did on ultra, right on the cart I saw zero difference I'm sorry. Plus a few of my favorite mods are not even there to be had. This mod did way more right away IMO than that money milker. I never want their anniversary edition either. From the screenshots it felt exactly that way too. Mods like this do much more. And it's hard after 200 or so hours of 2 times Hogwarts Legacy to be OK with their vanilla Skyrim look. At least to me this mod somewhat fixed that feeling. Thanks for making it.
Even though i use Skysight skins for male bodys and faces. My redguard race's nose part was still blocky, i downloaded your mode and take only " texture > actors > charahcters > redguardmale > "" malehead_msn.dds "" folder. Now Redguard's faces good looking too and also no neck seam, thank you so much <3 Your mods are so Aestethics
You say you don't have SSE, but if you do happen to get it in the future or something, would you be willing to port this mod over to Bethesda if that happens?
Not sure why, but its supposed to be based of the textures of fair-skin, if i read the description right. So i downloaded a fair skin male re-texture version on loverslab, and it seems to have a slight skin mismatch because the head seems to be slightly lighter then the body textures. Still i believe you did a great job with these mod, but i have to pass sadly, since i cant seem to find, the exact body textures that match with the heads.
based on the credits, i imagined that you used assets of fair skin, so i am sorry if i offended you in some way or another, and i seem to have found somewhat of a decent matching texture so for people, who want a decent matching texture fitting to the head, would i recommend "The Veteran Skin" its the closet i could find that matches the head somewhat.You only see closeup, a slight difference.
The dude who "made" the male fair skin actually used my textures without permission, as well as a few from other mod authors, and didn't acknowledge me in his credits nor anyone else. Edit: the only one who had my permission to patch my textures to some body textures is a guy from vector plexus. If you don't mind SAM, you could grab everything from there.
Many people give not the credits to where it belongs sadly, or ask for permission. I imagine that is the reason, why he had the file on his google drive for public view, and not on a website such as nexus.
Update: thanks for the recommendation ! I'm gonna make sure to check it out ! :)
hey shinglescat , really love this mod , i tried literally every other one but nothing looks as good , maybe lacking in resolution and needs a body patch but its damn impressive , also will take your advice on the high poly head thanks again

I'm seriously. Read it.

I'll probably also port it back to Skyrim someday.
Once again I thank you.
