    **UPDATED PERMISSIONS, AND FAREWELL!**



    Okay - I've had a lot of requests going way back about either finishing any of my incomplete mods for Skyrim, or changing permissions etc. For one reason or another I haven't gotten around to this at the time, & then Life Happens & I totally forget. Again. It's about time I just set aside a few minutes to get this done & let folks get on with what they need to do.

    Housekeeping - Permissions:

    ALL MY ARMOUR MESHES ARE NOW FREE FOR USE IN YOUR MODMAKING FOR SKYRIM AND/OR SKYRIM S.E. - YOU CAN ADD PART OR ALL OF THEM AS YOU NEED TO, AS LONG AS YOU CREDIT ME AND ANY OTHER AUTHORS/CONRIBUTORS NAMED.

    IF YOU USE ANY PART OF THE BODY MESHES INCLUDED IN ANY OF THESE ARMOURS, PLEASE GIVE THANKS TO THE CREATORS OF THE SEVENBASE BODY.

    YOU CAN PORT MY PRESETS MODS TO SKYRIM S.E.

    YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO CLAIM MY WORK OR ANYONE ELSE'S AS YOUR OWN.

    YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO UPLOAD MY MODS TO ANY OTHER SITE. EVER. NEXUSMODS ONLY.

    I AM UNABLE TO PROVIDE SUPPORT/TROUBLESHOOTING.

    HAVE AT IT!




    Done!

    ... now - how come this took me so long? Well... there's a story there...

    The last two mesh mods I was making really did my head in - no matter what I did, they broke. It was a technical glitch which I lacked the ability to fix. I got help - and even got things fixed by others, eventually. But every time I opened these things on my own machines they broke. So, I took a break to clear my head. A few weeks turned into months turned into... etc. etc. etc.

    ("I used to be a modder like you. Then I took a .nif file to the knee")

    Further down the track I'd moved on. In my free time I was doing a host of other fun things & especially spending way more time at the gym than I had which has been awesome. I always meant to get around to tinkering with things again & restarting modding for Skyrim, still had plenty of ideas & so-on. But I realised that had never even finished the game - I'd ended up spending more time trying to get mods to work together and then fix them again and again and again than I ever did actually playing the game. While I enjoy making mods, in this case it felt futile. And by that point in any case I had nothing like the free time I'd had when I started making all this stuff.

    I happened to have a free day today - and, finally, I actually remembered to stop by here & do this. For all those who over time have asked me to get this done I am really very sorry!

    I won't be modding another Bethesda game. After the amount of work needed to "fix" Skyrim, I just don't have the free time for a repeat. Plus, none of their other titles really grabbed my interest.

    I do play other games, and I am (slowly) learning Blender and DAZ3D, so I may in time make things for those and for other games I sometimes play - if I do, it will be under the same name whether here or elsewhere. So keep a look out, it'd be great to hear from y'all! Happy Gaming!

    Soo... while I don't know anything about modding and how to 'port files' etc....
    Last night after downloading a different mod for SSE, and it directing me to download a second it required but the second was for this original Skyrim, and it worked...
    After doing that, I decided to see if I could do the same with this!
    IT WORKED!
    All I did was click to download this mod normally, as though I were downloading it for original Skyrim but I had my Vortex set up for SSE.
    It downloaded this Mod, and upon installation and deployment, it popped up a warning about "mod is for wrong game version, are you sure? etc etc"
    I clicked yes.. it installed and deployed the mod...
    I loaded up the game, and all the new Face Presets are there!
    They didn't quite look right though cause I was originally using Fair Skin Complexion for UNP which kinda made it not look right, so then I downloaded and installed the SSE ported versions of Maevan2's Mature Skin Texture and the UNP version of SG Female Textures Renewal (which comes with the UNP Body) and both of those made it look fabulous!

    I just wanted to second the fantastic work on these presets - they really do look terrific!

    I am running into an incompatibility, however, and I was hoping you could shed some light on it (it might explain what some other folks are seeing as well).

    Simply put, the 11-20 ESP seems to conflict with EnaiSaion's "Imperious" racial mod. What's strange is that it's only that esp - this doesn't appear to be the case for the 1-10 esp or any of your other racial present overhauls. I checked this in TESedit. Is it possible that someone the 11-20 esp touches nord racials somehow?

    Thanks!

    Fantastic work on the presets. I don't know how i could have played without them. I would love to see some dark elf and high elf creations.

    Hey man, I love your mods, but could you create a combined esp to save up plugin space? I have tried to combine the Children of Skyrim mods 1 - 20 + Stormcloaks and Guards + Bretonnia into one esp a few times, but I have failed to get all scripts to load in the file. I could not use the companions succesfully cause they were not compatible with my other mods.

      I may or may not produce an all-in-one "Presets Mod of Doom" at some date but for the time being if nothing's broken I'm not going to mess with it. Also - as there are no scripts in any of the mods on this page, script-loading is unlikely to have been the issue.

      *What mods exactly was my Companions mod incompatible with?

    Thank you so much for your mods! <3 They are great and deserve much much more attention!

    (EDIT) So after downloading your mod I realised that Ria from the companions is wearing nothing but her underwear and a pear of gauntlets! xD Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

      Thanks ArmoMoose - glad you like them!

      Annoyingly, some users have continued to experience that problem, and I don't know the cause. The Companions are one faction which has some members who do not react well to having their armour/clothing changed in the CK (because Bethesda) - if you have already met them in the game world, and THEN install a mod which changes their armour, one or two seem to reject it, Ria being one of those. My Companions mod admittedly does work best if you are installing prior to starting a new game. However, if that's not an option you could instead try simply removing armour from her inventory, which should force the game to spawn her default.

      - standing in front of Ria, enter the console using the " ~ " key
      - click on Ria
      - type showinventory
      - type removeitem itemnumbergoeshere 1
      - repeat for armour, bracers/gauntlets, and boots

      That should do the trick - my apologies for any inconvenience!

      My old save file got corrupted so I started a new game! (While sobbing because of my old save) And now all the Companions are wearing their armor! Thank you, keep up the good work. <3

      EDIT:

      So also downloaded the Guard overhaul but I just didn't like how the sleeves looked (No offense <3) Is there any way to get rid of them?

    Still hoping to see some of these for a couple other Races...

    Imperial and Redguard women need an update like this too!

    Any way possible to just copy the files between folders to make these work with those races?

      Good news cjc75 - I have indeed put together a Redguard & Imperial pack. It is currently being tested by a couple of people.
