ATTENTION: If you are using the LE version in SE you may get crashes due to the format of textures not being supported in SE. Please make sure you have downloaded and installed the SE version here if you are using SE/AE!
ATTENTION II: If you think you are having trouble with the mod, please test on a save game with no other mods running, ONLY this one. That includes SKSE DLL plugins, Racemenu, etc. You will find that it is not this mod but usually a mix of other appearance-related mods not working together properly. This mod is as simple as it can possibly be, there is no magic or weird stuff going on under the hood. It's just texture and mesh replacers.
FAQ:
Q: My game is crashing, halp? A: You likely downloaded the LE version instead of the SE version here. The LE version can cause crashes in SE due to some different texture formats. Please double check that you downloaded the appropriate version!
Q: Will you make a patch for SoS/SAM/BetterMales/ButteryMales/SuperDuperHunksOfSkyrim/Etc? A: There are a number of patches out there, I'll try to collect links here:
Q: What files do I download? A: HIGH or LOW/PERFORMANCE for regular play, ULTRA is reserved for screen-archery and has a massive VRAM footprint (135MB per NPC!). There's now an installer for ease of use to select skin/hair/veins/face/etc.
Q: Will you make a female version? A: This was born out of a need for a good male texture way back in 2014 due to a major lack at the time. A female version is something I revisit from time to time but lose motivation after seeing the plethora of options already out there. But it's still something I'd like to revisit.
Q: Will you be covering beast races? A: I've tried a few times and have not been satisfied with the results. No promises here.
Q: Why does my characters head change color? A: You have something wrong in your load order that is causing the face tint bug. This is not related to the textures. This mod is almost a decade old and is just textures, but recent changes to some mods (RaceMenu, SMP, HDT) have started causing strange head mesh problems. If you're having your head change color it's not the fault of this mod.
There is literally nothing I can fix because it's just a texture file. If you can't get it to work, I won't be offended if you uninstall, but I can guarantee you'll have the issue with other texture mods.
Q: Hands/arms/head are different colors A: You are running mods that are assigning different spec/SSS values/etc. to meshes.
Because of the fact that this mod doesn't add any vampire face textures, whenever you are a vampire, your face will be a completely different color than your body. I know you've (kind of) abandoned this mod, but I would really appreciate it, if you ever decide to update this mod, that you add vampire textures. This is my favourite skin mod by far, but this issue really breaks the immersion for me. Especially so because I love vampires and so always play as them.
?? Why wouldn't this be compatible with beast retextures? They're replacing different files. That's like saying that a dragon texture replacer is incompatible with a bucket texture replacer
Hey fading -- you say you lose motivation for creating a female version after seeing the "plethora of options already available." Could you point me to one of these options that is anywhere equivalent to the quality of SkySight Skins? All I can find are mods that try to beautify. None of them honor the aesthetic of Skyrim like yours does.
Thanks fading, these are better than the ones I could find. Though... *cough*still not as good as what you could make*cough cough*... #nopressure #stillthough
Don't click on this and report it, this link leads to some adult site (probably a scam, I didn't go any further on it). I don't know if that's intended to happen by the poster, but if it is, this really is foul play.
a while back, I asked you, if you could use the Wrye-Bash compatible format, as soon as you rework the installer. Reading newer comments, I guess, you will be releasing new versions in the future. If you do, could you spare a thought about my request?
I agree with many others here, I think it would be great if you could release a female version! I haven't found any female skin mods which stay true to the aesthetic of vanilla (flaws such as eye bags, wrinkles, lines, dirt etc are simply eradicated), and believe me I've tried so many combinations.
Seriously, a lot of us would appreciate a mod that doesn't transform women into ageless porcelain dolls devoid of their original character. Skyrim is a harsh place and the NPCs should reflect that.
is there a way to remove the body hair ive tried hitting the other options when on install and nothing i still keep getting body hair edit: nvr mind i think its my load order
Error during install of the mod in MO2 https://gyazo.com/f11c24526764c432e2aa8ac70e5959be
I have not had any issues with playing with the mod, just wondering if this is something I need to do something about since I am not seeing anyone else commenting on this.

A: There are a number of patches out there, I'll try to collect links here:

• Skysight Skins Muscles for SAM
• The Veteran Skin for SoS (textures have been made more gritty here)

What are the beast race textures you're using? Curious about patching.
Here are few that I like. Some are for LE but they work in SE as far as I know.

LL IS an adult-only website. SOS is an adult mod. Holy hell dude.

All the best, J.
