📋 About This Mod

Hello & welcome! This texture replacer mod is for Redguardians - WIP & Better Looking Redguards!

For female: It comes with 2 edited HGEC seamless Nec variations of body textures to choose from: one has pubic hair while the other is shaved.

For male: About the same, 2 Robert body variations to choose from: one has hair on the body that's RobM4 and the other is Robert's Default V5.

You'll need Oblivion Character Overhaul v2 & Blockhead.

For Better Looking Redguards, first download it first. (click the name above)

For Redguardians, from what I read monkeyangie left it unfinish & as a resource, base from their head meshes not actually edited, the ESP has wild edits. You don't have to download it first from there for I already got the ESP already clean by TES4Edit here.

There will be a core & 2 optional folders each has the shaved textures. (Seamless Nec shaved & the other default Robert's Default V5)

Of the ESP here for Redguardian, I added the other 3 eyes choices similar as Oblivion Character Overhaul - Advanced Edition did for the Redguards. Btw, I recommend installing the Advanced Edition after installing OCOv2.

A note on Better Looking Redguards

Unlike Redguardians (btw by preference I got installed), it adds a "Redguard Male" race & a "Redguard Female" race to the creation menu, with the default Redguard still there. To see the textures on your character you must choose the one of those modded race. With Redguardians mod it's simpler, just choose Redguard & then a gender.

General notes

If you encounter the head is a slight different tone than the body on your character, press ~, then type player.update3d

Free to use, like most of the other users mentioned below. But please check their permissions as well.
