About this mod

Ever thought other NPC face mods go too far and just want a bit more Vanilla level variety on your Settlers, Raiders, Gunners and Railroad? Well maybe this is the mod for you!

--Installation--
Copy the contents of the Data folder into your Fallout 4 Data folder ProgramFiles/Steam/steamapps/common/Fallout 4/data
Then use whatever mod management tool you have (be it the default in-game one, Vortex, Nexus Mod Manager or other) and activate MoreGenericNPCFaces.esp somewhere near the bottom of your load order (although it doesn't really matter).

----Description----
After browsing the Nexus for a lightweight "More NPC Faces" type mod, I found myself at a loss. There weren't any, at least that were easily searched for. The only mods that I could find in this area either did an excessive number of NPCs, or did an excessive number of NPCs AND used custom assets, and often messed with their equipment.
So I thought, I can fill this gap! So 59 tedious duplications and edits later, I had my small batch of "new" faces. When I say "new", I mean they are the existing faces for their respective faction, but with different hairstyles and hair colours, as well as differing body shapes. Some of these mods apparently can cause some unusual bugs due to their implementation, something that really shouldn't happen with something so simple and shouldn't happen with this mod unless there is an engine bug.
This mod was originally intended solely for personal use (hence the craptastic images (complete with Deacon photobombing) provided!), but as I built it to be super lightweight, I thought I may as well share it for anyone like me who doesn't like the excess.

----Notes----
*59 total "New" faces for settlers.
*Varied bodyshapes, so many settlers sat at the very middle of the triangle.
*19 New Gunner faces.
*4 New Railroad faces.
*20 New Raider faces.
*16 New Settler faces.
*Some face types have a set bodyshape, while some have a randomized bodyshape. This was done to give a bit of NPC variety, even when said NPC wears clothing that covers their face and/or hair.

----Update Information----
*V1.0 - Mod Created

----Potential Bugs----
*Shouldn't clash with any mods unless those mods change the same LChar entries (See the file named "EditedReferences.jpg" inside the "Pictures" folder to see these).
*If you are getting mod clashes with this mod, they can be avoided by manually merging changes made by this mod with XEdit with whatever is causing the clashes (remember to do changes in the clashing .esp LOWEST in the order). Do not attempt this if you are uncomforable with XEdit.
*NPCs may be missing FaceGen data when you install the mod, there is NO way I can test if this happens because I have the FaceGen data and have provided it. If it doesn't work, generate it in the Creation kit (Instructions here https://www.creationkit.com/fallout4/index.php?title=Actor/Dark_Face_Bug ) 

----If you have Bugs----
*Contact me, describe the bug, and I will see what I can do.
