Fine lets pay way too much attention to this perhaps very small part of the game, the appearance of specific facial features. I give in. At least it is a part I'm likely to be looking at often and closely in game.
OP, you've been doing this for a while, and I'd like to try adding all of your face detailing *after* Hall of Face (looks cool) and NVR3R, which all face-detail mods interact with, I mean, eyes, eyelid fix, eyebrows and eyelashes, teeth, and Immersive Mouth and Teeth to fill in the texture group, all on the T4 body (Mannequin). Is that likely to work?
I keep getting bad vibes about overwriting NPC Overhauls, and Immersive Mouth has differently named HumanMouth textures than yours, eg. "mouthhuman.dds" for IM+T, and "MouthHumanMerged.dds" in your pack. My thinking was let your overwrite IM+T.
yeah you can overwrite them. this mod offers only textures for the most used mouths, as long as you don't use "character kit remake" (which comes with new models and textures), you'll be fine.
It's ESPs that you don't want to install, os jus ingore the requirements, NVR will do it instead.
I picked trudy's face preset, the NPC you meet in goodsprings, and put it on Delilah companion, then reset her race face data to default. Later painted her lips red in photoshop on her face texture. (it's similar to the texture i used for Veronica companion, you can find on my NPC replacer)
haha yeah I know who he is, I just wanted to know if he was from the vanilla game or some other mod since I tried copying one by one the values of the face and it looked quite strange, I had no knowledge of this copy button. Sorry for the confusion, thanks for the answer :D
the trick is resetting her race facedata to default, caucasian vanilla loks a bit deformed, so thats why npcs may look ugly. it's just overreliance on egms.
After days of trying to get the eyebrows right I find this! I guess it takes a woman to know what a woman's eyebrow looks like.
BTW, the texture path in the eyebrow nif is wrong. Edit: On further investigation there's actually an extra block hanging at the end of eyebrowf.nif, that seems to be headfemale.
until XCE is BETA no one is allowed to reuse part of it. anyway Xenius added his own makeup versions. this looks good cause i use midhrastic enb (good for skin shaders)
hey i was looking for nuska's women of the wasteland for new vegas but i read somewhere that the creator had deleted their account so its very hard to find, i was hoping if u could upload it or give me a link to that mod, i will be very thankful.
find it ffr fallout 3 neus tere's a reupload,onlymisses the NV esp. but you can get source files. i no longer have this npc or its textures after pc cleanup.
I noticed the Teeth files have the following file path: "textures/actors/character/Mouth/". However, to get the textures to show up I had to install the files into "textures/characters/mouth/". Is the file path intentionally set up differently than this?
SO, umm, in the download page it says you fixed the path... but you didn't. It still goes to "textures/actors/character/Mouth/". Just wanted to point that out. I love the mod and use it!
first of all,this mod is a retexture,of the linked eyelash mod.you gota get the meshes from there. then locate whatever "cosmetic" mod you have,that edits races (more eyes,project mikoto,lings coiffeur, any hairmod blablabla,NVredesigned)
Then you have to add eyelashes to ALL races and sexes you want to display them>> check in GECK if the races already are set with eyelashes,if not add them
Look here for tabs and all places to look involved in race editing.it's a very valid tutorial,and by far the easiest. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/62261/?
My personal tip for eyelashes...so you have to remove teeth and tongue,and replace them iwth a mesh called vacuus.nif (provided in the original mod),this is an empty mesh,so no double teeth issue. then you load the mouthhumanMERGED (always provided) in one of the slots you desire (upperteeth\lower teeth\tongue),then you load its texture in the texture departmend,then repeat for eyelashs,so oyu'll have eyelas\teeth and tongue and a vacuum (empty).
I don't know what I did but I somehow got it working without using GECK. But thank you for the quick response! If anything goes wrong I'll have this for reference.

mod managers lets you install mods, and then disable plugins.

i copie dher face data from GECK, with the copy button.

Sometimes I want to give priority to the reality of post apocalypse...

I obviusly cannot use these files in my mod,since its from another autor,but uvmaps do not differ greatly,
so you should be able to merge them.

it's like greed apples and red apples...still apples,changes only the oclour (texture)
the file i uploaded covers both mouthumanmerged (which is not vanilla) and vanilla mouths
How do I go about doing this?
