📋 About This Mod

Here\'s a new mod called ABC - Amnes Beautiful Characters which separates male and female face textures. It\'s more complex and has less compatibility and fewer options. Of course it\'s NOT compatible with VRD. Version 4. 2 Change Log -Replaces Argonian female body texture with Robert\'s style Version 4. 1 Change Log -Fixes texture seam of Imperial female body Version 4. 0 Change Log -OMOD all-in-one, easy installation and uninstallation -Hair replacement option -Argonian texture optimization Version 3. 5 Change Log -Eyelashes are trimmed. Now eyelashes are half in length. Hooray! -Female and male High Elf body textures are corrected to correspond with face color. -Female and male Redguard body textures are corrected to correspond with face color. -Male Dark Elf body texture is corrected to correspond with face color. -High Elf, Dark Elf, Breton use cuter head mesh. -Nord uses muscular head mesh. -Dremora face texture is fixed. Version 3. 0 Change Log -Body meshes are separated from the main file. You can install whatever body type compatible with Robert\'s male and HGEC female (By yourself)! -New Argonian eye -nivea\'s New Argonian Face Textures (4096) -Imperial, HighElf, Breton, Nord, WoodElf, DarkElf, RedGuard can use all blue eyes, green eyes, red eyes, brown eyes, and new added black eyes, purple eyes. -Khajiit have new red eyes, blue eyes, green eyes, silver eyes. -Mod title changed. Version 2. 5 Change Log -Update to official Robert\'s Male Body Replacer V5 Version 2. 0 Change Log -Integrate Textures from Update 1. 1 -Replace Highelf Ear -Head06_Fem3 Tweaked What does this mod do? It enhances vanilla races with high resolution texture and replaces head mesh with head06 for Imperial, Highelf, Darkelf, Woodelf, Breton, Nord, Redguard, Goldensaint, Darkseducer and Dremora. Almost all textures of face, body, eyes and ears are replaced, and eyelashes are added. Note 1. Most meshes and textures don\'t belong to me. I just collect them and put them together. However, I modified many textures to make them look better. That means, many textures in this mod are unique. 2. All credit belongs to original authors. 3. Faces and female body textures are smooth in this mod (except Orc and Dremora). If you prefer rough skin, please use the rough skin optional file. 4. Though Darkseducer, Goldensaint, Dremora, Vampire and even Sheogorath are enhanced as well, they remain non-playable. 5. This mod uses Robert Male and HGEC Female body. 6. Some textures are quite... big. This mod will consume about 400MB VRAM. If you want to install QTP3, AEVWD or other big mod, video card with more than 1G VRAM is recommended. Incompatibility Definitely incompatible with other mods which change mesh or texture of vanilla races. There are compatibility patches for some popular mods
