📋 About This Mod
Big thanks to sanosukex for the 1st Port :)
Oldrim Version here
Thanks to Ray84 and taoxue for testing it
Looking for a new, and fresh Overhaul Mod for your Men? Then you came to the right place!
This Mod will give the Men a new and fresh look, by trying to keep them look kinda lore friendly. (does not occur to the most I guess xD)
It's an Male only Overhaul! So far It covers mostly NPC's from Skyrim itself and a few from the DLC's, still a very long road to go.
All reworked Guys who can follow you, level till 100 with you.
Groups like the Stormcloaks, Imperials and Dawnguards will have the same Warpaints on their faces, to show who they are Loyal and belong to.
Side Note - My Mod and Patches are made for last SE 1. 5. 97. Using it on AE is on your own Risk, if it works, let us all know.
Patch Load Order:
-USSEP
-ICW
-Better Men
-BMoS USSEP Patch
-BMoS ICW Patch
and so on, just make sure no other NPC Overhaul overwrite mine if it contains Males.
sanosukex will keep the file up to date with the LE Version. :) I own SE now, so I'll do it myself, Big thanks for his help. ^^
Thanks to DreamerStreamer for teaching me how to create Patches. :)
Used all kinds of Hair, eye and Warpaint Mods, thanks to the Modders again! RaceMenu is the most used Mod here, special thanks to Expired!
Side Note: This Mod does NOT contain any Face Texture or Body Texture/Mesh. So you can use whatever Body and Face you like, which will give them a different look than you see in my Screenshots. ^^
A nice Male Body, I recommand SAM Light or HIMBO Also Northborn Scars for high Res Scars.
Don't forget to don't be shy! :)
No Textures for Skin included!
KS Hairdos - Renewal by Kalilies Stealthic Khaos and Shocky
KS Hairdos 1. 7 Salt and Wind by Kalilies
A work-in-progress male NPC overhaul for Skyrim Special Edition, covering 93 NPCs with custom appearances. Created by Darnexx after finding existing male overhauls lacking. Only supports SE, last updated November 2022.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 1,364 endorsements
- Covers a decent chunk of male NPCs (93) for a WIP
- Author is actively iterating, so expect more coverage
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers 93 NPCs so far, so many males are untouched
- Last updated in 2022, so it might be stale for current SE patches
- Potential conflicts with other NPC overhauls that touch the same characters
For Skyrim SE players who want a male NPC overhaul that's more tailored and less generic. If you're tired of the same old male faces and want a fresh take on 93 characters, this is worth a look. Skip if you need full coverage or play on original Skyrim.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a WIP, check the mod page for updates before installing to avoid missing recent fixes.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to easily toggle this mod on/off if you suspect conflicts.
- If you use other NPC overhauls, load this one after them to ensure its changes take priority.
