Greetings, my fellow Dovahkiin brethren.

 

I am here to propose, to put an idea and possibly to convince any of you - those talented ones, that game files have no secrets - of a mod. I hope a simple mod, that will improve game's aesthetics.

 

The thing is, that you actually CAN turn npc into a vampire. Either by command or mod... But usually, when using body mods, like UNP or CBBE, those newly turned (or even some existing random npcs) get one hell of a trouble:

Neckseams, color mismatch of a body and head. These are trully pain in arse of one, who would like to create a vampire out of an npc.

 

Yet, there is one vanilla way to turn someone vampire and change only it's eyes to resemble a vampire. It comes from Dawnguard quest with changing npcs into vampires. It only changes it's eyes, as it is said. But.. .why not go further? Why not to move this appearance feature to "normal" vampire change of npcs, with preserving vampire abilities, factions, races?

 

To save everything, that npc has, but eyes? I do know that there are numerous mods that are made to remove this kind of issues, but.. they seem to not work. Any tips used, they are not working, or work for a short duration of time (reloading game, changing cell, etc) so again all can see this horrible and hated by all neckseams and color mismatches! DAMN!

 

 

So I come here and ask you: Is it possible to create anything that will suit my vision? And if so, would anyone bring it to existance?

 

 

Sincerely, Tarreth.

You can turn anyone into a vampire with console commands ~ NPCs Into Vampires:

Click on the NPC you want to turn into a vampire and type in setrace (type in desired race)racevampire

Remember 2 important things: 1. Click on the NPC first to get their "reference ID" and 2. type in setrace, not player.setrace.

so if I want to change a nord it will be like this:

setrace nordracevampire. ?

Yes but you have to click on the NPC you want to change hence the " reference ID " part. Also for instance if you did it to say Nazeem then he would become a Nord Vampire. I once changed Nazeem into a Falmer because he was so annoying. Lol

Here is a full list of setrace commands as far as I can tell. http://skyrim-slim.t...trace-full-list

Yes, I know this. But it is not, what I ment. It's like: When I change them  get terrible neckseams and color mismatch. I'd love to deny it by simply "removing" vampire skin textures, using normal ones. But no method I saw works.

The mod "Better Vampires" allows you to turn NPCs into vampires via a special power. You simply activate the power and bite them...then you have a vamp. Some NPCs even turn into followers. I've tested it out many times and I haven't found any bugs.

 

All the turned NPCs have the same vampiric abilities you have, they have glowy eyes (Dawnguard version), and they even feed when they're hungry. All while keeping everything about the NPC (factions etc.) intact.

 

Look into it, bruh.

[Tarreth]

Yes, I know this. But ALL these vampires have neckseams with HEAVY color mismatch. I am trying to negate it by convincing one of you - talented and aknowledged with files and stuff - to create a mod, that would preserve vampire race to be changed around head, except for eyes.

 

Also, sorry for long absence, life.
