Changing Default Race Face Settings

Recommended Posts

I've made a custom race character that looked good in character creation at the start of a new game, but didn't look as good in the real game. Instead of remaking from scratch, I'd prefer to change the default appearance of that race to the same as what I created. From there I can easily tweak to something I'd find perfect.

 

Using wyre bash, I copied the face values of that save game character to an esp file. Then I figured I can just copy those face values from that character and paste it over the default values of that race in Tes construction set. However, the facegen data tab doesn't have copy and paste options. Having to go one by one and move that slider bar is just too annoying and the clamp option isn't working that well.

 

Is there a work around to this? Or is there a better way where I can edit my existing character's face where I can actually see the dynamic changes rendered as it would appear in-game, just as the character creation phase when starting a new game?

 

Thanks.

to use the chargen menu later in game:

 

1. open the console ~

2. Type in: "showracemenu" (without the quotes

3. make your changes, but DO NOT PRESS "DONE"!!!!!

4. open the console again if you closed it

5. press Esc to open the main menu

6. save your game

7. load your game

DONE....Your character has been changed successfuly!!!!

 

NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT PRESS "DONE"!!!! If you do your stats WILL BE MESSED UP. Many people say not to close the console, but that is misunderstood.

Having the console open allows you to save in the menu which you normally can't(Save would be greyed out)

 

There is also this program:

 

Face Exchange Lite: http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=7808

 

You can change a few things with it, but it really shines when used to back up you face files.

If you have Windows Vista or 7 you will need the oldest version there: 1.3.1 The other ones will crash nonstop.
