No. Edit: ninja :ninja: Good to know too. Thanks! :)

This may sound weird, but for those having these issues, try rebooting windows 7 (if you're using that OS).. I had these problems too (including sound cut offs) and a reboot of my PC solved all these issues. On a side note, I normally never reboot my PC, unless Windows requests it.

Ok, I solved my problem. Apparently Windows 7 needs to reboot (without informing the user) after installing certain applications. I never turn off my PC.. just sleep mode. Even the voice cut outs, I was experiencing, now work properly. :)

Yes, you're right about the "no more blocky faces" mod.. it doesn't get rid of the wrinkles. However, I was using "less ugly elven faces" before which was merged with the "no more blocky faces" (hence my confusion) and didn't work either. Moreover, I just d/l and installed the "Wet and Cold" mod, but none of the features appear in my game. I even have SKSE running, which is optional according to the mod maker. I can only conclude that there is definitely something wrong with my games ability to run mods. That said, I have a totally clean install of Skyrim (plus Dawnguard and Heartfire) running under the latest version. Is it possible that these mods only work when you have the "creaton kit" installed??

Can anyone point me in the direction of a mod that allows more freedom in character creation? For example having all the Nord faces in the Breton creation?

Most of the re-texture mods I've tried to install through the NMM aren't working either.. I also don't get any option to select them through the "Data Files" option (which, in my case, isn't greyed out); It doesn't show a "load loose files" option. The main mod I'd really want to use is the "no more blocky faces". Or any other mod that lets me get rid of the wrinkly foreheads of bretons. Is it be possible that it should be installed in a directory other than "data\textures\actors\character\.."? Any help would be appreciated.
