📋 About This Mod

For all my awesome mods and mod reviews, visit girlplaysgame.com!

By popular demand, I'm releasing my OC Tannick as a preset for Racemenu and Enhanced Character Edit ECE. UPDATE: And VRDaphni helped me turn him into a Standalone Follower - if you want the fullly supported follower version, go to this page! Yes, I know he is the most handsome Skyrim character you've ever laid eyes on. It's cool, feel free to fall in love with these polygons.

You do NOT need any additional mods if you use Tannick as a follower.

You'll need a whole slew of mods to make the character look right if you use his preset. Sorry, it can't be helped. To get the EXACT same look as my OC, please download:

  • []The latest version of KS Hairdos Renewal []The Eyes of Beauty []Better Males - Sundracon nude body and Younger Faces mixed with Geonox face texture []Scars HD []Beards HD []My custom beauty mark that replaces the first male dirt texture
The only mod above that is CRITICAL to my character looking even remotely "right" is Better Males - Younger Faces mixed with Geonox. The face texture makes a big difference - Vanilla Tannick looks like shit, trust me (see a vanilla pic here if you don't trust me). You don't have to download the other mods if you plan on altering my Tannick's hair, beard, scars, eyes, etc. anyway. You will also need either Racemenu or ECE to use this mod. Pick one - my character actually looks “better” in ECE, in my opinion, but if you want to turn him into a follower using Familiar Faces, I recommend using Racemenu. Scroll down for instructions for both.

Instructions for ECE users:

  • []Download the mod file into your CME_Save folder. For me, this is located in My Documents > My Game > Skyrim > CME_save []Open Skyrim. Use the console command ~ and type in showracemenu. []You should see the ECE interface - scroll over to the Body tab, and go to Slot Load, and load Slot 1.

Instructions for Racemenu users:

[]Download the mod file - install directly via Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) or manually unzip the file into your Skyrim folder (for me, the folder is TESV Skyrim > Data > SKSE > Plugins > Chargen > Prese

  • If you're using the preset, make sure you have Racemenu or ECE installed and load the preset from the character creation menu.
  • For the follower, you'll need to find Tannick in-game — check the mod's description or comments for his location, as the author didn't specify.
