📋 About This Mod

BB's DAWNGUARD REVISITED

This mod has had a HEAVY update: 

>>NITHI NPC ENHANCEMENT<<

A lore-friendly standalone overhaul for the Dawnguard DLC NPCs.

Not limited to the NPCs in image; I have edited all of the unique NPCs in the DLC, and given high poly heads/new hairs to the radiant NPCs.

As the name implies, it's a revisit of an older mod I had made. This version is standalone and has better, revised NPC meshes.

The vampire eye textures have been upscaled and merged with Eyes of Beauty so they look better and have better eyelashes.

This mod includes skin details, wrinkles, scars - but does not replace the general skin or body. It will use what you have.

If you use Race-Based Textures, be sure to get the RBT PATCH

Plugin is flagged as light to save your plugin limit and there (as usual) are options for men, women or both.

INSTALL:

Light Plugin. Performance optimized.

You will need Expressive Facial Animations for Men and Women.

Starting a new save is strongly recommended.

Installing mid-save is entirely at your own risk. It will not break your save, but depending on the other mods you have installed, you may experience issues with this mod functioning correctly. They are fixable issues, but if you are a newer modder or not confident with resolving conflicts, mid-save install is probably not for you. There is only so much I can do to help in this respect.  Thank you for understanding <3
