Hi! I started a new game the day before the last uppdate, and after installing a new f4se and getting back in there, I had a whole new epidemic in the Commonwealth:

 

 

Pretty freaky, huh? I have no idea what causes this. I've got 118 active mods going and it was pretty stable up until this happened!

 

For reference, here's my load order:

Does anyone experience this, and if so, do you have any of the mods on this list installed?

[NVsoldier]

Holy crap I wouldn't change a thing. I would just copy your .esm file, rename it, and post it on the Nexus. You got yourself the mod of the year right there. 

[nwisth]

Lol, it makes for a unique experience, at least!

 

I fixed it, though - after basicly switching off all the mods me and the other person had in common, and not getting anywhere, I disabled everything, and started adding mods from the top of my load order. The problem resurfaced pretty fast - it turned out to be the overhaul mod A New Dawn. I installed a new version of it (uploaded by the author yesterday) and now my game is back to normal, with everything installed.

[BarberMD]

This issue is due to an update to the NPC record in patch 1.6 which changes the way that the record handles face generation. If you're using a mod that was made with an older version of the Bethesda .esms, the new records will act as though they are being overwritten and you'll have screwed up faces.

I'm sorry, where is the problem in this?
