📋 About This Mod
The right-drag sculpting mode in FNV's GECK was absolutely crashtastic, so I was totally floored to find it working perfectly in FO3's GECK (GOTY version from GOG.com.) Managed to make a bunch of faces, and it didn't crash once! :D
Here they are, in case anyone would like them.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 349 endorsements and 90k downloads—clearly fills a need.
- Simple and effective: 16 new presets for more variety without overhauling the game.
- Lightweight and likely compatible with most setups since it only adds presets.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019—may not be tested with the latest game patches, so proceed with caution.
- Only adds presets, so if you're looking for more in-depth face customization, this won't help.
For players who want more face options in character creation without installing a full overhaul. If you're tired of the vanilla presets and want a quick, easy variety boost, this is for you. Skip if you need advanced sliders or custom race support.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod adds presets, you'll likely need to place the files in your game's character creation folder—check the mod's file structure to see where they go.
- If you use a mod manager, try importing the mod there first; it might handle the file placement automatically.
- Make sure to back up your original character presets if you're worried about conflicts, though this mod should be additive.
