Hairs and Eyes

[Grimmjow0006]

How come you can't have multiple? I got the Naruto Eyes, one that added a bunch of colors, and wanted a hair mod but none work if you have eye mods. Is there any way around this?

I had the same problem. I don't know WHY that happens, I think it has something to do with however you add choices to the race menu. They don't accumulate, they overwrite. But don'tquote me on that.

I can offer an overly complicated work-around to give you what you want, i.e. eyes and hair from different packs.

 

1. Load up FOMM (step 0. get FOMM :thumbsup: ).

2. Put the .esp's in the order of eyepackyouwant.esp, then hairpackyouwant.esp. This does NOT work if you reverse the order. :shrug:

3. Activate the eye pack, but not the hair.

4. Start up FO3.

5. Load a game.

6. Bring up the console (press ~), type showracemenu, and choose the eyes you want.

7. Save your game, and exit FO3.

8. Open up FOMM again, and activate the hair pack .esp, without deactivating the eyes.

9. Open up FO3 again.

10. Load the game you saved in step 7.

11. Bring up the console, do showracemenu, and choose your hair. The character creator won't have the menu choices from step 6, but it WILL (SHOULD) still have the the texture applied. (ie you'll see the right eyes, but you won't be able to reselect them)

12. If this worked your char should have both the eyes and the hair that you want.

 

This worked for me, after about 30 minutes of trial and error.

I'd suggest doing this no earlier than 'Escape!'.

I tried it with the Naruto Eyes pack, and all the hair packs called by the 'A Good Hairday' esp.

If someone knows a simpler way to do this, it would be most appeciated.

 

Sorry if this has already been answered/is common knowledge, but I've been getting mods for all of three days. :unsure:

I'll see what I can get figured out in my mod (I put together the 'AGoodHairday' mod .esp file)

 

I have never tried using eyes that are not default, but I am assuming it should work if both the new eyes and hair are in the same .esp files

 

which eye pack were you trying to work? can you give me a link

 

I will try to just add the eye options to each race in my .esp, so you won't need two seperate .esp files, should only take 5 minutes or so

Ok, I have a file made

 

I only tested it once for about 2 minutes, and I probly screwed up the names, since I have only seen that show 3 or 4 times in my life

 

 

it is called eye test

only problem is, I didn't realise it was on my makeup file, so it probly won't work if you don't get the textures from these files... (makes makeup an optional race, will not put it on your player unless you choose makeup from the race menu)

just take the textures, rename it by putting a 2 infront of the name "2headhuman.dds" and dropping the "texture" folder from his mod into the Fallout Data folder

 

then copy the textures from this mod as well

(sorry, my mod is in progress, so it is a bit of a mess for me to get all the files together)

 

 

 

 

 

you still need all 3 hair downloads as well...
