NPC Overhaul



Well, it's been a while. I wanted to get the rest of my male NPCs done, but my arm won't let me do anything big.  I barely could finish this... long story. Anyway, I did manage to get something small done. It's something I've wanted to do for a while. I have recreated all three housecarls, carriage drivers, and bards using the High Poly Head.

You will need the DLC's.



Please endorse if you love this mod.  It keeps me motivated to create more.



Please read thoroughly before downloading
Seriously... DO IT

1. APPEARANCES:  There are NO skin textures attached to this mod.  That means you will have to suffer atrocious vanilla skin textures if you download.  The good news is, it will accept any skin mod you wish to use.  Please be aware that your NPCs will look a bit different than mine using different skin textures.  I also use Silent Horizons ENB and Cathedral Weathers, so your images may look different from mine.

2.  ANIMATIONS:  I am using High Poly Head Version 4 and it requires Expressive Facegen Morphs and Expressive Facial Animation Male.  High Poly Head is baked into the mod, but not the animations.  With that said, some have used this mod without them with no problems.  If you find beard clipping or weird eyes, install these mods.  If not, you should be fine.

3.  EDITING:  Please do not ask me to change appearances or remove tattoos, or ask me to remove NPCs.  I won't do it and you can't make me.  Please... just stop asking.  Thank you!

4.  LOAD ORDER:  These do NOT work with other NPC mods that change the appearance of HearthFire NPCs.  NPCs should go down towards the end of your load order.

5.  REQUIREMENTS:  You will need to have USSEEP downloaded.  Seriously, everyone should have this by now.  It just makes my life a heck of a lot simpler that I don't have to do patches and extra files.  I'm sure since you realize that this is for a DLC, you will need said DLC.  I'm going to assume that almost everyone has all DLCs.

6.  All the men in the images use Tempered Skins with SOS Light.  The women used Bijin Skin for CBBE.  All used KS Hairdos.  



Mods to avoid:

Same NPC overhauls - blackface issues
Mods that change the body size - neck seam issues (floating heads)
Improved Eye Reflections (Oldrim) - cataract looking eyes



My other NPC Replacer Mods:  

Men of the Thieves Guild
Men of the Companions
Men of Riften
Men of the Reach
Men of Winterhold
Men of Windhelm
Men of Solitude
Men from Small Towns
