📋 About This Mod
I don't like how Vampire Lords have alien black eyes. By default they use the same eyes as Dremora, but the Vertex Colors will always make them black, no matter what eye retextures you use that replace eyedemon.dds. Therefore, I made some modifications to the meshes, so that they actually have visible irises and more. Inspired by a certain Vampire Lord in ESO.
FEATURES
-
[]Removed the vertex colors that forces their eyes to always be black.
[
]Linked the eye textures to eyevampire_02.dds[]Due to the above, they will use whatever retexture you have, so long as it replaces that file. Check screenshots for different comparisons.
[]Edited the eye UV maps, so they look a bit more menacing, instead of looking slightly down.
[]Added glow maps to the eyes.
[]Applied all the changes to the Vampire Lord loading screen.
INSTALLATION
-
[]Choose ONLY ONE main file. If you choose the Vampire Lord Wings Remade version, make sure to download its requirements first.
[
]Install with your preferred mod manager.[]If there's a conflict with a mod that already provides eyevampire_g.dds, such as Lamae's Gaze or BnP - Eye Overhaul, let their file overwrite mine.
[]Otherwise, let my mod overwrite everything else.
COMPATIBILITY
-
[]Compatible with any retextures & skeletons. Check the Recommended Mods section for what I personally use.
[
]Not compatible with Monster Facial Animation (MFA). While CinnaMewRoll did something similar HERE, be wary that at least one user's reported issues with it.[]Not compatible with mods that modify vampirelord.nif & vampirelordfemale.nif such as Vampire Lord Mesh Change & Grimoas Vampire Lord. No patch will be made.
[]Not directly compatible with Vampire Lords and Beasts by Mihail because they separated the meshes for Vampire Lords and all that. No patch will be made.
[]Not directly compatible with Humanoid Vampire Lords, but you can technically use them together.

✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 1,098 endorsements and nearly a million downloads.

For Skyrim players who use custom vampire eye textures and want consistency when transforming into Vampire Lord/Lady. Skip if you're fine with the default eyes or don't use custom textures.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the file placement easily.
- If you don't see the effect, check that your custom eye textures are loaded before this mod in your load order.
