Vampire Fix

"Overlay head part list: Check on for Vampires. This keeps your base settings for your NPC while overlaying Vampire characteristics." (Found in Face Data tab)

 

Unchecking this option in the appropriate race of vampire (NordRaceVampire, BretonRaceVampire, etc) will sort of solve the problem of the largely disliked Vampire face morph.

 

HOWEVER, unchecking this option is making the player invisible in the first person. For example, drawing back a bow no longer features your hands or gloves. Having a spell equipped in first person...there is no hand with twitchy fingers with a glowy spell within it.

 

Also, I believe it's ignoring the cheek morph. Why? I don't know. I will do further testing (pre-Vampire turning-->Vampire).

 

Any thoughts on this modders? Or if somebody else has found a known, working solution, I'm all for it.

Yeah, I have no clue. I don't really know what's making changes to the first person imagery. And I have no idea how to stop the vamp face changes. The eyes stop just fine. The cheeks...they always go from regular player generated to sunken in vampire style.

 

I've tried just about possible option and variation and combination of options in there. I can take off the whole vampire head, but I can't take out what the head IS.

Overlay head part list: Check on for Vampires. This keeps your base settings for your NPC while overlaying Vampire characteristics.

Override head part list:

Base Head Parts: Head parts are defined in the HeadPart section

Additional Head Parts: Base additional parts that are also defined in the HeadPart section as miscellaneous objects.

Available Morphs: Pertains to the number of nose, eye, and lip types available to the race.

Available Head Colors: Hair colors are defined in the ColorForm list. R-clicking will bring up the colorform list for you to choose from.

Default Hair Color: The starting hair color for that race - chosen from the Available Hair Color list.

Hair Biped Object: Pertains to the Body Data tab where Hair was defined.

Head Biped Object: Same as Hair.

 

Pretty much all of that (from the CK Wiki)...I've altered at one time or another. I've turned on/off overlay, I've taken away listed head features (set them to none), I've set Head Parts, etc to none...

 

I also tried "FaceGen Head," a check box in the General tab. Taking that off simply removes the entire head.

 

The only vampire mod I'm running atm is what's included in SkyrimRedone. I was originally working on my own .esp file. Then I started wondering if it might be in the Redone esp. So I started making changes to that. I might have to reinstall that esp file...
