📋 About This Mod
This time I come with something different... and not yet another eye mod :P
A year ago, when I first started modding, I was making lots and LOTS of replacers.
I had no real experience in creating things back then, and honestly, I had nothing to add from myself besides some random heads made in RaceMenu.
Those replacers weren’t even standalone and forced you to download tons of other mods :/
So I gave up on making faces and started studying how to properly make mods and create assets myself.
And that’s when I got inspired - I wanted to create things that simply help make characters more defined and unique.
I learned the basics of photo editing, drawing, how the game works from the inside, and how to properly approach textures.
I also touched a bit of 3D modeling… which is still kinda scary to me!
It’s been only a year, but a year of focus and self-development.
I'm proud of myself to be honest!
After my recent releases, I finally got the will, time, and chance to have a bit of fun with the things I released in the past months.
I want to create more replacers and faces, just like I loved to do in the past.
Ysolda is just my starting point. I created a cute redhead before and felt that it fits quite nicely. I still need to get used to HPH, since for the past few months the only thing I’ve been using for character creation was UBE, which is a completely different world. As for the outfit, I decided to go with Helga in this particular recolor because it felt the most vanilla-friendly to my eye.
I believe few people may like the characters I create, and perhaps some will want to play with them...
So inside my overhaul mods you will find a preset with the face created for a specific NPC.
No permission is granted to use my presets as a base for other replacers, followers, or anything else.
Please keep them for personal use only.
She was made for my replacer, and I want to keep it that way :)
To use the preset, please make sure you have all the -= HEAD =- mods listed in the credits at the end of the description installed.
If you’re only interested in the overhaul itself, you don’t need to install them.
De NPCs - Ysolda Overhaul by LDD is a cosmetic NPC replacer for Skyrim that gives Ysolda a new face and outfit recolor, created by modder LevisageDeDior. It includes a face preset for players to use, and is the author's return to NPC replacers after a year of learning modding skills. With 280 endorsements and 11,476 downloads, it's a niche but appreciated overhaul for fans of the character.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community support with 280 endorsements and over 11k downloads, so it's been tried and liked.
- Standalone design means you don't need to hunt down a bunch of other mods to make it work.
- Includes a face preset, so you can rock Ysolda's look on your own character too.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects Ysolda, so if you want a full NPC overhaul, you'll need to grab other mods.
- The outfit recolor is based on Helga's outfit, which might not match your personal taste or other mods.
- Compatibility with other mods that change Ysolda's appearance or outfit could be a concern, so check your load order.
For Skyrim players who want a fresh, more defined look for Ysolda without overhauling the whole game. It's perfect if you're into character visual mods and appreciate a vanilla-friendly aesthetic. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or a complete NPC makeover pack.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a standalone replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager, and make sure it loads after other mods that might affect Ysolda.
- If you use the included face preset, you'll need to load it in RaceMenu or the character creation menu to apply it to your character.
- Check if you have any other mods that alter Ysolda's appearance, as they might conflict—load order matters.
