📋 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

Replaces Ysolda's appearance with a new face and a recolor of Helga's outfit, keeping a vanilla-friendly look.
Includes a face preset for the specific NPC, allowing players to use the same face for their own character.
Created by LevisageDeDior, who focuses on making characters more defined and unique.
Part of a series of overhaul mods by the author, with Ysolda as the starting point.
Requires no additional mods, as it is standalone (unlike the author's earlier replacers).

📊 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.
🎯 Is This For You?
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.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 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.
