📋 About This Mod
Playing Rigmor of Bruma for some time and just setting up my system for a new playthrough I checked my loadorder for errors. The DarkfaceIssueReporter script in xEdit showed some NPCs having the darkface bug, which may cause crashes and visual oddities.
I regenerated the facegen files of the NPCs in question and fixed the problem. Here you find the necessary files (no esp) to fix the problem.
Install as new mod with your mod manager, the position must be below Rigmor of Bruma, overwriting the files of the mod.
For a manual install, you'll need the mod Rigmor of Bruma first and then this bugfix.
Making screenshots of the affected NPCs is extremely difficult because they instantly attack.
Thanks to Rigmor for her mods who graciously granted me permission to publish this bugfix here.
