I cannot create any followers. Anytime I create new followers using new meshes, my Creation Kit crashes. The only thing I can do is change already existing NPCs. If anyone wants to create followers out of my presets, you are more than welcome to.
Thanks for the preset :) I'm using Gnash for Durak in my game. Just wanted to note one issue for others who may run into it. While in your description you recommend using both "Fine Face Textures" and "Vitruvia Skin", the textures are incompatible. Using them both together will make the body and face skin color not match (at least on the Orc). So the only way I was able to make it work was to remove Fine Face Textures and solely use Vitruvia Skin. This was tested on a clean install with only the required mods both on the PC and with my custom mod giving the face&body to Durak.
Its a shame because I actually prefer the more silvery skin color from the Fine Face Textures.
I use Vortex and I go into the Vitruvia mod (Vitruvia for SOS Light, strangely enough, works better, but if you like men not wearing a loincloth, then this won't work) itself and change the male face texture to Fine. It also has to do with your load order, making Fine Face Texture overwrite. There is still a seam, but not as pronounced. I use them because I don't usually have naked male characters, so I don't care. The next best skin textures I like are Tempered Skins with SOS Light. I don't like Vitruvia for the face at all. I prefer FFT too, and wish someone would come up with one that matches with the body. No other skin mod makes the face the way I like it and I'm too inept or don't have the software to create it. Maybe one day, but this old brain is slow to learn things
Thanks for the reply :) I'll try tweaking around a bit. I'm still learning things too. Been modding things for years but recently started trying to learn how to mod textures and meshes about a month ago. Oddly enough I find papyrus scripting like a billion times easier. I personally not a fan of nude textures so I was using the non-SOS version of Vitruvia. And while I like the High Poly Face from VectorPlexus, I have yet to be able to get it to work on a select few NPCs (it seems like the only way I can get it to work is if I use it for everyone) so I was sticking to your Vanilla head version. I don't like having characters run around in loin clothes, but when we are relaxing at home I like putting my companions in more "casual clothes" while I am crafting and organizing my loot and the mismatched colors drive me crazy :)
Wow! I don't think I've ever seen a more handsome orc! Or such an Altmer for that matter. Lol. I'm kind of dying to see them made into companions actually, if you'd ever consider it. Seriously incredible work!
I wish you the best of luck, thank you for considering it! Maybe a Ghorbash the Iron Hand replacer if it helps things go smoother? Seeing your skill with him, it's a bit of a shame there aren't enough orc followers for a Stronghold Edition to Pride of Skyrim. To save you the painstaking work, it's probably for the best.
It's disappointing the nexus has so few Orc creationists, because they can be truly beautiful! In a harshly unique way perhaps. Am I weird for thinking that? Lol. It's cool to hear you're currently considering doing Orc stronghold npcs as well. They need more love from the nexus so I'm glad to hear it! ^^

If they do not, you can manually drop the .jslot file into the file path above.
Would you ever consider making them followers?
P.S. Love your handle (name)

Thanks again for the mod!
