yea this just does not work, i have all the masters, the other recommended mods, and caits apperance will not change. i have given up hope, and i see you have as well which is a shame because this is probably the best interpretation of Cait ive seen on the nexus. One day when i care more i'll try and make it work, but ive been figuring out my load order for too long now and wanna get back into the game. Cheers
I'm glad you like my interpretation of her, and I'm sorry its not working for you :( I havent played fo4 in quite a while, but next time I update all my mods I'll try to see if I can fix it. Until then, does the LooksMenu preset work for you? If it does, you can open the console commands, click on Cait, type "showlooksmenu" followed by the numbers you see on the menu after clicking on cait. This will bring up the character creation menu for Cait, and you can load the preset there.
that worked actually, but now ive got a weird issue where the skin on her face is darker than her body texture. could be the old black face bug thats in the base game, but thank you for the reply
I love her face so much! She is absolutely charming. But I can't get the required mods to work at all :(. Pretty please, is there a way you could release a vanilla version of just her face-shape change for Cait? I have been trying to copy the result in the character creator but I am horrible at it and I hate to ask but this adds so much life and character to her!
Thanks for the sweet comment <3 Unfortunately I haven't opened fo4 in well over a year and I worry if I try now all of my mods will break and it will be a whole thing. So for now, I can't make a vanilla version. However, if you're able to get LooksMenu to work, I uploaded what I believe are the presets I used to make this mod under the optional downloads.
All you have to do is open up the Looks Menu and load the preset called A_Cait. There's also a file called A_Cait Alt which I think is the same but with a different hair. Again, I'm not able to check these so I don't know for certain if they look the same but I figured if you wanted the face shape, this should give it to you lol.
I don't know, I think it looks pretty good. Not a waifu like most of the other mods. She looks tough and rough. Besides, my daughter has friends with blue hair, green hair and even comical orange hair and they're real live people. Who says Cait might not have chosen orange hair too. And what neck seam? I don't see any neck seam. I would like to see the renditions of Piper and Curie.
The neck seam is always there. Body and head are separate meshes after all. Textures for body and face play big role. In this case valkyr+nuclear nude is not the best combo. Hair color can be easily changed. I'm not familiar with Skyrim, but FO4 is not the prettiest game. That's why there are mods like HiPoly Faces and so on. Using these mods is up to the user's own personal preference. The preset looks fine, better than Cait's default.
It's okay if you don't like things :) Keep in mind some things: 1) people have feelings, 2) this is literally the first mod I've ever made, 3) lots of cait/companion mods have seams, you just don't see them in the picture because those people are very good at taking good pictures and editing them, and 4) what you think looks bad, other people might like.
I like it, that's why I decided to share it in case other people might like it more than other mods. If you don't like it, you can simply move on and download one you do like more :) I hope this helps.
Oh and yes, the nuclear nude and valkyr mods don't go super well together. But they're entirely optional. I just used them because I like the look of them both, and I don't really care about neck seams. If this bothers you, you can simply download matching face and body textures <3 Since this upsets you so much, I decided to show the difference As for the hair, it looks comically orange the photobooth i use because of the lighting, but in fo4's natural lighting it's much more muted. And I don't use any mods that make it high poly, because i think it makes everyone else look weird. Again, if you like the high poly look, i suggest downloading the highpoly mods and a companion mod that matches <3
Just for the record, I wasn't implying you should change your body+face texture combo, or make the preset with high poly face. Everyone else is free to try it. Might make it fit their taste better, it might not. Thanks for sharing.

- neck seam
- comical orange hair
- angular face, like vanilla skyrim
