INTRODUCTION

There is just not a lot of diversity among the people in Fallout 4. A good example is the Diamond City Security Guards, who share just 2 faces and there are no female guards. I created an overhaul that includes fully voiced female guards, but it still didn't seem like enough. There are still folks running around with no names and not a lot of diversity among the faces. 

This series of mods will focus on adding a lot of new faces to the Commonwealth. I started with Diamond City as I already had a lot of the groundwork done with the DC Guard overhaul, which I released a while back.

NEW LITE VERSION (02/10/2023)

The new Lite version only touches DC Guards. No residents are renamed or altered in any way. DC Guards still get names.
The Lite version is a replacement for Diamond City Security Guards Overhaul.
Required Mods for the Lite Version:

WHAT DOES THIS MOD DO?

  • All residents of Diamond City have new faces (named and unnamed). I spent countless hours creating these faces and attempted to keep them lore friendly. This type of creative work is completely subjective, so I know there will be those that don't care for the direction I went, but I hope some of you enjoy seeing all the new faces.
  • The children get new hair and new outfits.
  • Piper also gets a new face. If you use another mod for her, just load it after this mod to overwrite it.
  • All unnamed residents now have names. 
  • Security guards also get names.
  • Named residents now have first and last names (with the exception of those with a title, i.e. Doctor Sun).
  • Facegen data is included to help with performance.
  • A complete overhaul of the Diamond City Security Guards that includes fully voiced female guards (see next section for more details).

DIAMOND CITY SECURITY GUARD OVERHAUL
Spoiler:  
Show

  • There are now female guards that are FULLY VOICED (Quietbeam & Dana are the voice actresses for the guards. Go check out their profiles on Casting Call Club.)
  • There are 10 female presets & 20 male presets for guards. There is also a patch available so that you can also use Varied Diamond City Guards to add 10 more male presets. Just note that if you do use this mod, you may not see as many female guards as it will increase the pool of male guards.

Guards Get New Armor, Updated Stats & Upgraded Weapons

Armor changes:
  • DC Guards can spawn with the original athletic uniform or a baseball uniform.
  • Helmets have been removed (after all, we want to see all the new faces!). Now they have a small chance to spawn with a baseball cap (customized with an armor rating & energy resistance of 5 and fortifies perception) or blue batting helmet.
  • There is also a patch available so that they will wear outfits from CROSS_MojaveManhunter instead.

Inventory changes:
  • They no longer use pipe weapons. This is the largest and safest settlement in the Commonwealth. You'd think they would be better armed. They get Combat shotguns now instead.
  • I've also added a 2nd stimpak to their inventory.

Stat changes:
DC Guards are now stronger. Vanilla S.P.E.C.I.A.L. was 0 everything expect perception which was 7. I've modified S.P.E.C.I.A.L stats to the following:
  • S - 3
  • P - 7 (no change)
  • E - 8
  • C - 1
  • I  -  1
  • A - 7
  • L - 1

Vanilla Perks were crDamage20 which modifies weapon attack damage. I've added the following perks (all level 1):
  • Toughness
  • Big Leagues
  • Life Giver

Increased health from 150 to 300.

COMPATIBILITY
The Bleachers - A Diamond City Story - Patch available under Optional Files.
  • Patched the named NPCs from The Bleachers in DC so they do not get renamed by this mod.

NOTE:
 This patch is not compatible with the Bleachers 2 patch. This patch is not needed for the Lite version of FotC - DC Edition.

The Fens Sheriff's Department - Bleachers 2 - Patch available under Optional Files.
  • Removed the perks, updated stats and inventory changes from this mod in favor of those changes from FSD.
  • Added the outfits from FSD to DC Guards.
  • Added the outfits from FSD to Deacon and Danny. Also modified Deacon's DC Guard disguise when he is your companion to use the FSD outfit.
  • Removed the rename spell from all DC Guards as FSD adds different titles to the exterior guards so it was easier to just remove the names. The interior guards were not getting renamed so I removed the spell from them until I can figure out why it's not working. Residents still get names.
  • Patched the named NPCs from FSD in DC so they do not get renamed.

NOTE: This patch is not compatible with the Varied Diamond City Guards, CROSS_MojaveManhunter or Bleachers 1 patches. This patch also works with FotC - DC Edition Lite.

v1.2 UPDATE
Spoiler:  
Show
I apologize for another update in the same day, but I was planning to make a patch for Varied Male and Female Named Guards Diamond City to add more female guards from that mod but saw that the mod author's permissions are open for using in other mods, so instead of a patch I have integrated the mod into this one. 

There are now 28 female and 35 male guards! I've also updated the patch for Varied Diamond City Guards that adds 10 more male presets. Just note that if you do use this mod, you may not see as many female guards as it will increase the pool of male guards.

This should be last update for a while unless there are issues that need fixing. I'm now turning my attention to the upcoming Faces of the Commonwealth - Goodneighbor Edition. 

v1.1 UPDATE
Spoiler:  
Show
I have removed the requirement for The Eyes Of Beauty Fallout Edition. If you use this mod, it does update the default eye colors so you will still get some benefit from it.

I also made some changes to a few NPCs. Polly for example. I wasn't happy with her hair as it just didn't fit her tough personality. Here are the NPCs that have been updated. For the most part the only changes were to hairstyles and beards except for Abbott. He looked too young, so I updated some of his facial features.
  • Arturo
  • Abbott
  • Geneva
  • Polly
  • Sheffield
  • Hawthorne
  • Vadim
  • A few of the DC guards.
  • Changed some hairstyles for the kids.
  • Probably more that I forgot about.

Presets:
Fallout Genetics - This mod helped a lot with generating new faces. After using this script, I then went through every NPC and modified them even more to my liking and to try to keep them true to themselves.
Varied Male and Female Named Guards Diamond City - Adds additional female and male guards.
