About this mod

Prevents any change to your appearance when becoming a vampire, unlocks all installed eyes for all characters(not including beast races), and removes the brow ridges from all elves and orcs. ESL flagged. Compatibility with race related mods will require patching. Please leave any questions or concerns in the comments and I will look into it.

My aim with this mod was to fill some of the gaps left by other beauty/appearance mods. I've found that no matter which mods I used, I still hated vampire eyes and elf foreheads. I was also disappointed when I installed some beautiful new eye mods only to still be limited to just three or four eye colors per elf race.
So, I poked around until I found a simple solution.

Depending on which options you choose to install, this mod will:

1. Make all Non-Beast Race Eyes available for use by all Non-Beast Race Characters, including eyes added by mods. (i.e. a High Elf with Human Eyes, a Dark Elf with Orc Eyes, or a Human with Wood Elf Eyes)

2. Remove the unsightly brow ridges from all Elves and Orcs. From the fomod you can choose any or all of Male Elves, Female Elves, Male Orcs, and Female Orcs. I personally prefer to leave the Male Orcs as they are.

UPDATE: As of v1.1, there are now orc and elf options to affect both NPCs and Player Characters or Player Characters Only. Some mods don't play nice with the NPC options and it can cause weird neck seams and deformities. In some cases, such as RSV, the Player Only options are the only ones that work at all. If I ever find a reasonable solution, I will update again.

3. Prevent any appearance change, other than the addition of fangs, when turning into a vampire. You keep your Eyes, Skin-tone, and Facial Profile. (No more sunken/gaunt cheeks, pale skin, or orange eyes.) You can still use Racemenu to edit your appearance after becoming a vampire. If you use High-Poly Head, your head will remain perfectly unchanged and will not be replaced by a low poly one.

NPC vampires will still have their usual vampire appearance with most other mods.

If you use High-Poly Head, DO NOT activate any of the Vampire Face Fix options in the High-Poly Head fomod. They are not necessary and will cause your skin-tone to change to the old pallid, sickly color when you become a vampire.

This mod must be deployed after ALL mods that affect character appearance or vampirism. No Exceptions.

It's ESL-flagged and works with most body, face, and hair mods. I'm looking into compatibility with race overhauls, so please leave any questions or concerns in the comments. I will try to make any necessary patches as quickly as I can.

One notable bug I have found is when using Racemenu after becoming a vampire, sometimes the changes made will revert after exiting. It doesn't happen often and saving/reloading from the main menu has always fixed it. That being said, If you're accustomed to 100% functionality, you're probably not playing Skyrim. :)

I apologize for the earlier version of this description being misleading. I typed it for an alternate (buggier) version of this mod
and forgot to update it.

This is the first mod I've ever shared and I'm learning just how many oversights I've made. So, don't hesitate to leave feedback in the comments to help me sort some of them out. Thanks
