Though Misc. College of Winterhold Tweaks was designed with maximum compatibility in mind, issues may still arise.  Issues arising from conflicts can be solved either by using an offered alternate version of the tweak mod, ensuring that the conflicting mod is loaded after the tweak mod, or simply not using the offending tweak mod.

The Testing Process:  Typically I'll read the mod's description to see what it impacts.  A check in SSEEdit for simple record conflicts is always done first, followed by a peek in the BSA archive, if present, to see if there's any conflicting scripts.  If none are found but information from the mod's description indicates there may still be a conflict (see example below), I check either in the Creation Kit or in-game to ensure that the Tweak still works.  The testing process is not exhaustive (there are many mods to test!) so please do not consider this article to be the last word on the topic.  If you discover contradicting information, please let me know so I can make corrections.

Example:  The Light Pillars fix in ICoW do not seem to conflict with Mage-Light Maintenance, and yet the two mods can't work together due to other changes ICoW makes.

Concerning Facegeoms Bugs:  Misc. College of Winterhold Tweaks makes no edits to any NPC.  All changes related to NPCs are done via quests, scripts, or dialog.  Therefore you should not see an NPC face bug related to these mods.

      Thanks for the detailed info! If this was a "give critical quest NPCs detailed schedules" mod I'd make a patch, but this feature isn't mentioned as being part of the mod, and the original author has discontinued it, so I'm going to treat it like a wild edit and just recommend that FF be loaded after Tavern Idles.

      Yeah a patch would be a bit much. Just passing it on since it could cause issues.
      There is another version packaged with Perseids Inns and Taverns - Realistic Room Rental Enhanced, More Tavern Idles for Realistic Room Rental Enhanced, which was more likely to overwrite FF due to its load order recommendations.
