I currently use these as loose late-loading overrides, but BSA packing is more performant if you have lots of these. If you use BSA packing, the usual conflict resolution caveats apply.

There are many existing facegen mods. I made these files so all the NPCs in my game use consistent textures and tints.

This mod is additive to

Phil Swift's CKR Patches

Salt Lake Stories - CKR Race Path fix and Patch

I am unaware of any other facegen mods using the necessary combination of dependencies.

Custom Races

If you see all or some NPCs covered by a download looking fugly, please let me know. Mods with custom races may require a plugin to map texture paths and models back to vanilla. I will identify these proactively and ensure all the uploads handle them properly. This may disable mod-specific NPC appearance traits.

Currently covered:

These 'micro patch' plugins are great candidates to be merged using Merge Plugins Standalone or a similar tool. For more background on plugin merging, see Patch It Up - ATMOS Ambient Overhaul.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-tested with 61 endorsements and over 6,400 downloads
  • Combines multiple popular texture mods for a cohesive look
  • Regularly updated (last update July 2026) so likely compatible with current game version

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires several other mods (IVMB, TYPE4, CKR) to work, so setup is more involved
  • Niche mod for players who want specific body and face texture combinations
🎯 Is This For You?
For modders and players who want to enhance NPC appearances with a specific set of body and face textures. If you're already using IVMB, TYPE4, or CKR, this is a natural addition. Skip if you prefer simpler, all-in-one texture overhauls.
