Importing player face onto a NPC?

[reindeer51]

I know of the spf command method and import file function in CK, that's what I've been using. But the problem is, the face still never turns out exactly as intended when I test the NPC in-game. Things such as slightly crooked nose or lips not being the right color are some of the inaccuracies I get.

 

I use the RaceMenu plugin by expired to design my player character's appearance fully and I guess that's the issue; some of the facial features used in RaceMenu doesn't carry over into CK or something.

 

 

So is there another, better way of exporting/importing player faces anyone knows of? Or is there something I'm missing here? I read turning a mod into a ESM might give better results in CK.

Better is subjective but I believe some people have had success using Familiar Faces to create NPC faces, not at all sure how that works though.

How it works? Simple. You can make a save of yourself, then there's an option in familiar faces that allows you to spawn a copy of yourself into the world.
