📋 About This Mod
This Addon Expansion does two things.
1) It fixes Russell Eyes' (or in this case, eye :P) and gives him beautiful blue eyes that really contrast with his ugly a face.
2) I went ahead and made every single NPC in the entire Russell mod use FCO races, custom eyes, and eyebrows. Plus, I had to edit all vanilla NPC lists that were used by the Russell mod, so it might fix other incompatibilities with other mods/vanilla and FCO.
I understand why the FCO mod author didn´t try to do this, it is a pain in the A.
I Had to manually check and change every single NPC and every single NPC list used by the Russel Mod. It is easy but tedious manual labor.
By the way, if after installing FCO you ever find an NPC with eyes either faded (appears they have cataracts) or if they are going sideways, the reason for that is that most likely the FCO race was assigned default Vanilla eyes, instead of the custom FCO eyes. So if you ever want to make a personal edit for an NPC, load up FONV edit or GECK and change it. I managed to do it so anyone can :D

One Important thing!
if you never played Russell, this might have spoilers so beware!
When you play with this mod installed, you will find that all silver wolves are still using their ugly vanilla textures/models. This is not an oversight, it was an actual decision to leave them as they were.
the reasoning for why I didn´t apply FCO changes to all tribals was because all of them use special races in order to get the tribal paintings in their bodies, FCO never made new textures/models/races for these special types of NPCs, thus, i had 2 options, leave them as they were or change all of them to FCO standard caucasian race and make them look like civilized people.

By the way, I MIGHT just MIGHT start working on doing this for every single Someguy series mod. Cause honestly they all are so good and should be in every single playthrough for every single character and they deserve to have pretty NPCs.
but well, that´s it, hope you guys like it!
Don´t forget to go and endorse Someguy and Drumber for these masterpieces!
