Ripping character face model for another save?

Is their a way to rip my first save characters face to a new game?

Not as far as I know.

I use small pieces of paper to write down the slider settings for my characters. Takes time, I know.

There is a tool that can change the makeup settings though. It's the 'DAI CLI Save Editor' by ricco19. I son't know if it still works. It is a bit complicated too.

I never thought of writing down the slider setting! Thanks! It just feels weird out of all the bethesda games ive played I feel too attached to my first playthough toon for the first time ever. Again thank you.

This reminds me of Bioware's Mass Effect. It has very limited modding capability, but what it can do is already providing you with a code with all the facial settings in it. All you need to do is to copy that code down and save for future use, or share with people. Maybe with the introduction of GECK, someone can make a mod similar to this that compiles all settings into one code (however long it is doesn't matter). As long as we can copy/paste easily (just 1 line, instead of a long list of slider settings), and we have an exact face someone tried to share with us. This also makes testing out 100s of facial settings in matters of minutes, not hours or days.

there is a "face ripper" mod here on Nexus ... I believe the same author (must be the master of the save file layout) has also released a "settlement ripper" to allow you to move settlements from one save game to another...
