Is there a way to make this work with a playable ghoul mod? I use the I'm ghoulish mod from Bethesda.net, right in game, and this changes all npc ghouls, but not my character. I really like how these ghouls look and wanted my ghoul character to look the same. I'll be thankful for any ideas or suggestions.
The author seems to be very anti-CBBE, so we'll probably never get it, which is a shame. (unless someone else does it).
I don't understand why anyone would be anti-CBBE. There's no need to provide nudity files, it can be an underwear version like you said. In fact, it SHOULD be the exact same textures we already have here, it just needs to be adjusted to a different body shape.
The main reason I use CBBE is because I have a ton of outfits with a customized bodyshape via BodySlide, and there's no way I'll uninstall dozens of outfit mods just to be able to use this one, even though this mod is amazing. I'd make a patch if I knew how to, but I imagine it involves editing texture files directly which is probably pretty hard tbh
CBBE might be the reason my lady ghoul settlers have body textures that are all screwed up (ie the underwear maps to under their right armpit). So long as they spawn wearing clothes, it's not as noticeable at least.
I have read the description, but I still have some doubts.
What are the differences between this version and the previous one?
I am a user of the old ghoul replacer and I don't know if I should upgrade to this version. I'm not clear. Also, the previous version supported Nuka World, right?
Instead of changing the vanilla ghoul race to look like this, it changes every vanilla game's ghoul NPC's race to the new ghoul one, which has the benefits of being more seamless as other mods can't interfere with it outside of something else editing their NPCs records and reverting to the vanilla ghoul race - which just means they'll still look like they used to without breaking anything else.
Also whatever is written in the description. Comments below state DLCs aren't supported yet, but they'll get to it.
So the new version is basically more compatible and uses Vanilla UVs for the artwork, so no more outfit work arounds or invisible arms, should be able to upgrade on a current save, just make sure to uninstall the old one. I did it on my save and it worked fine. Also nuka world and other DLCs support is in the works since with the newer artwork its easier to patch for DLCs, I'm just currently in the process of remaking the glowing ghoul artwork
Unfortunately this conflicts with the Balding Ghouls mod that removes those stupid wigs that the ghouls use so often. No clue why they weren't removed in this mod, I would have assumed they would be if the goal was to make the ghouls look more like ghouls; it ruins the whole thing when you see their horrific (beautiful) faces and then they just have this brand new dumb wig on their head.
I would really love it if I could use this mod but keeping the FO4 vanilla ghouls eyes. I know they are less lore-friendly but I love the variety of them. (does anyone know how?)

The mod author isn’t going to do it because both the Turkeys now work for BGS and have left the modding community.
This is a great mod, but if you’re using CBBE (like many people do) - the texture for female bodies is all kinds of messed up and misaligned.

I have got an issue related to this mod which I have found out about on a crash log.

I guess the author of the mod needs to fix this specific texture.
but I still have some doubts.
