📋 About This Mod

LE VERSION | MY PATREON | MY DISCORD

I don't know what to say. Seriously. Sweat and blood, that's it.

Aaaaaaaaand this is a reason why I'll be expelled from my uni. Jk but seriously making mods is fun and pain at the same time. Pls make it worth it.

The next upcoming overhaul is for Legacy of the Dragonborn. Stay tuned!

INSTALLATION: I highly recommend using mod manager. The best is Mod Organizer 2. Can't say anything about Vortex.

If there’s any problem like neck seam, color mismatch, black face, potato head or anything like that, then it’s your fault. Yes, yours! But take it easy. My mod doesn't use custom body textures, but your own. Double check those textures, maybe you have blankdetailmap.dds with different color. Also check your normal maps just to be sure they’re seamless around the neck. Body meshes may also cause the problem with neck seam. For potato head or black face bug make sure you installed both mods in the right order. Replacer must be AFTER original one. Install Citizens of Tamriel original file first, then overwrite it with mine. My plugin also should placed after original file.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DELETING TGA FILES IN \textures\actors\character\facegendata\facetint\CitizensComplete.esp IN ORIGINAL CITIZENS OF TAMRIEL. THEY'RE USELESS, ESPECIALLY IN SE.
