Help! All the NPC women look horrible!

So, I went a 'little' overboard with mods for Origins... I admit it. But I love how my character looks and I just don't want to make a new one. I just don't know where I messed up along the way to do THIS to all the female NPC characters:

Nearly ALL of the female NPCs look like they haven't slept their entire life or they've been beaten until they look like a raccoon!!

 

If it helps, I'm attaching my Chargenmorphcfg file.

 

But I know I have a lot of Morgana skins, Luna... I have DA Redesigned... Dracomie...

 

I am horrible at figuring out technical things... and I'm hoping that someone has an idea of which mod may have done this... because besides completely starting over, (which I don't want to do unless there's an easy way to turn my current character into a preset, so I can at least save the face...) I've run out of ideas and I am at my wits end.

 

I am so sorry for any trouble, and I'm sure I'm just being an idiot... But any help or ideas of which skin mod/texture I need to get rid of, or how to turn my current character face into a preset so I could at least start fresh and not figure out which of the several presets I downloaded to get her... I would be very appreciative.

The chargenmorphcfg.xml file (and the mods included in it) have no effect on NPC appearance. That file does one thing: lists the assets available for the player character, in the in-game Character Creator.

 

Mods that add skins, like fmorgana, Lunas, and the like, can't affect NPCs unless those new textures are specifically added to the morphs... And while DA Redesigned/Dracomies does add new skins to their morphs, as well as using the original game textures - most morphs use a blend of two skin textures - the Dracomies textures do not have the grainy, bruised appearance in your screencap.

 

Most likely, you've replaced the vanilla skin textures... have you, perchance, installed a 'hi res' global texture replacer, such as JB3textures?

Or ANY 'hi res' skin texture replacers?

 

Such texture files would have the following names:

 

uh_hed_dwfa_0d.dds
uh_hed_elfa_0d.dds
uh_hed_fema_0d.dds
uh_hed_infa_0d.dds
uh_hed_masa_0d.dds
uh_hed_olda_0d.dds
uh_hed_quna_0d.dds
uh_hed_sica_0d.dds

(And JB3 also includes an eye texture: pn_eye_nrma_0t.dds.)

Wow, Skymoves. I hadn't even read hennalang's reply and I was already thinking (holy s***, that's hella helpful).

 

What's also funny is I entered this thread because by the title I thought the poster meant vanilla females were horrible and he needed suggestions for mods to make them look decent. I know I do! XD
