📋 About This Mod
What's new in 2. 6?
- Several generic NPCs have been improved.
- Several NPCs from the Institute and official DLCs have been redesigned.
- Wrinkles and signs of aging have been added to elderly NPCs to distinguish them from the rest (However, my focus is still beautification, so they might still look a bit "young").
- Additional bug fixes for voiceless NPCs; some stats reverted to vanilla.
- Updated image gallery (Only a portion of all modified NPCs).
- This will likely be the final update for this mod.
What's new in 2. 5?
* In current saves, if you see any NPCs with hair errors, simply select them with the console and type disable/enable. If the issue persists, leave a comment.
- This new version includes a new hair requirement, while some others have been removed (there are now fewer requirements than before).
- Once again, all NPCs have been re-exported. The female versions now have a skin tone similar to vanilla; however, some NPCs may have slight discoloration due to the use of COTAP. (Using only the CBBE textures seems to be the solution)
- Additional NPCs have been added for factions not covered by my add-ons (Triggermen, Railroad, etc.).
- Support for Better Settlers has been added. This was done quickly, so don't expect the same level of refinement as the base mod. Still, I have edited all the NPCs it adds. It is probably incompatible with any Nexus revision unless a patch is created. I won’t be taking patch requests for this version; however, it includes my own fixes and some additional tweaks that benefit from my clothing mods: OUTFITS MASHUP - COMPILATION
Requirements:
- X-Cell Fallout 4
- MiscHairstyle1. 6
- The Eyes of Beauty Fallout Edition - Remastered
- Kim Hairstyle
- Black Desert Online Hairs
Recommended:
- NPCs Change Clothes
- Clothing Color Variety
- Face Light
- Disable Bloom - No More Flickering White Squares
- MiscHairstyle Vanilla Match Retextures
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A beautification project in which I have edited all NPCs in the game, including those from the official DLCs. Over 1,000 NPCs have been modified, so minor errors may occur—it’s difficult for me to personally test every NPC. This mod serves as the foundation for the rest of my add-ons, which you can find on my profile. The add-ons include the remaining NPCs and factions not covered here, as well as other mods that might interest you.
- Children, Children of Atom, Scavengers, Minutemen, Raiders, Gunners, and Brotherhood of Steel are not edited. (They can be found as separate mods on my profile: LLDan's Profile | Nexus Mods)
