✨ Key Features

Replaces 12 NPCs with high-poly head meshes.

FOMOD installer lets you pick which NPCs to install.
Designed to help prevent conflicts with other mods.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 1,598 endorsements and 36,855 downloads.
  • FOMOD installer gives you control over which NPCs to include, so you can avoid clashes with your load order.
  • ESL-flagged ESP means it won't eat up your plugin limit—nice for heavy mod lists.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only covers 12 NPCs, so you'll need other packs if you want a full overhaul.
  • Body support is limited to CBBE, 3BA, and BHUNP—if you use a different body mod, you might see seams or mismatches.
  • As with any NPC replacer, there's a risk of conflicts with other mods that edit the same NPCs, even with the FOMOD options.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want to give a dozen NPCs a visual upgrade with high-poly heads and body support, especially if you're using CBBE, 3BA, or BHUNP. If you're looking for a comprehensive NPC overhaul covering hundreds of characters, this pack is too small—skip it and grab a larger bundle.
📦 Install:Easy· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like MO2 or Vortex to install the FOMOD—it'll let you pick exactly which NPCs you want without manual file copying.
  • If you're using other NPC overhauls, install this pack and let the FOMOD prompt you to choose—select only the NPCs you know aren't touched by other mods to avoid conflicts.
  • Check your load order after installing to make sure the ESL-flagged ESP is active; it should be fine, but a quick LOOT run can catch any issues.
