+🌈 Happy pride!🌈
We're proud of you everyday, regardless of the ppl who say otherwise!

❤️ Someone who is simply existing is not political btw ❤️


Before continuing:
Please understand that I will not release any presets that is used to replace a NPC/Character - and again, please do respect this.
I like to monitor the comments to keep a safe space for myself and the lovely people who support my work.
Maybe another day I'll release some preset pack - but today is not that day.

Please avoid unecessary feedback, which includes malicious nitpicking as well - especially if you have no plans on downloading the mod. Such comments will be either ignored or deleted, sorry!







IMSOTIREDIMSOTIREDIMSOTIREDIMSOTIREDIMSOTIREDIMSOTIRED After procrastinating this replacer for months at this point (Val Soprano was a side quest, cause I got so downtrodden lmao), I decided to stop overthinking and just be content with what I want to share hehe.

This was a decently big project for me as I'm used to just making one- to two NPCs at a time. This is also my first attempt on giving the NPCs unique skin texture paths as an optional file - so do let me know if something is iffy.

Yes, I have no idea how to patch TNG or SOS feel free to haze me ദ്ദി ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ ) (pls don't).
...but come to think of it, y would u dress down Galmar in the first place...
🤔



𓆩✧𓆪 🔥 B E E F  U N E N D I N G attempts (not 100%)  to stay true to the Vanilla vision of the main NPCs in the Civil War Questline, with custom hair edits from KS Hairdo's by Kalilies & Stealthic, using Textures by ShinglesCat.
+ One custom hair edit from Apachii Sky Hair by Apachii.
KS hairs have been 'Hair Shader Patched'
(script by CakeofHonor) - meaning their hairs are able to be shaded properly for magic effects + rain weathers (for ENBs).
! This has resulted in the hair to look a little rougher, but I like it this way!

+ The mod comes in two versions:
1. whether you want vanilla skin pathing, or if you want to use-
2. unique skin texture pathings based on BnP Male skin by Enroys & Fridam + BnP Female Skin by Khisartin & Fridam.

I want to thank Fridam, Enroys and Khisartin (+the rest of the team) for the permission to use their BnP Series skin textures that are included in this mod!
Please endorse them + give them kudos + check out their other work!


❗Please check out Khisartin's DDS Workshop as well, as their work is something someone should not miss out on











Hard Requirements:
- USSEP
+ B.E.E.S if on older versions than 1.6.11x

Soft Requirements
:
- Expressive Facegen Morphs & Expressive Facial Animations for Females / Expressive Facial Animations for Males - Optional, I'm unsure if any weird facial animations may cause clippings without them, but do test it without!
- Superior Lore-Friendly Hair - HD textures - Optional, I use 'rough' version as a vanilla hair retexture (seen on Galmar, Ralof and Tullius).
- Beards - Optional, I use Hvergelmer's beard retexture seen on the screenshots.
- Authentic Civil War Followers Hadvar and Ralof SE - If you choose to use the patch within the installer!

I've created a two FOMOD installers featuring multiple options to choose from:

1. Vanilla skin (will use YOUR skin textures)
🔥 Choose between Rikke V1 or Rikke V2.
🔥 1K FaceTints
🔥 ACWF Patch
🔥 Heights + Stats, Height Only or keep the records vanilla.


2. Unique Textures Path (will use the custom textures provided in the mod)
- CBBE+ HIMBO based textures
(or Tempered Skin body asset (Type II-which I use)
🔥 Choose between Rikke V1 or Rikke V2.
🔥 1K FaceTints
🔥 ACWF Patch
🔥 Heights + Stats, Height Only or keep the records vanilla.


❗The Stats tweaks are mainly based on ACWF by CinnaMewRoll and Immersive Boss Overhaul by DJBobby123 with own individual tweaks - while they're not required I'd still endorse these two mods!
Meaning, General Tullius, Ulfric, Rikke and Galmar may be harder to beat (not really...), but personally they should be harder to beat 🤭


The plugin was created in SSEEDIT and is ESL.
USSEP is required this time - as I did forward some script properties to the characters, and it's very recommended to have in your modlist already! (ᵕ—ᴗ—)
Note: I created this replacer in the 1.6.640 version (Plugin v.1.70), and it should work regardless of the new update.

NB! Please do double-check if everything was properly installed on your end. I test out my mods, but sometimes I might miss something and modlists differ!

(Feel free to ask questions that is not answered in this mod description).






Authentic Civil War Followers Hadvar and Ralof SE by CinnaMewRoll - Compatible with patch OR load Beef Unending after ACWF / overwrite ACWF.

Immersive Boss Overhaul by DJBobby123 - Slight incompatibility - load Beef Unending after Immersive Boss Overhaul / overwrite.

Any mod that edits: Tullius, Rikke, Hadvar, Ulfric, Galmar and Ralof - Incompatible, UNLESS you let Beef Unending overwrite these mods!

Make sure that 'Beef Unending - A Civil War Replacer.esp' is loaded AFTER any plugins that edit their NPC record(s).
Overwrite ANY facegen meshes/textures that the files conflicts with to avoid dark face bug.


A heads-up:
I know some people use different replacers for Rikke, just load your preferred Rikke mod over Beef Unending.
No, I won't make an option for you to not download Rikke (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧ ❤️









1. ENB Setups & Reshaders look different for everyone!⋆˙⟡♡
As with most NPC replacers, the NPCs will always look different for everyone - considering ENBs and shaders!
- The hairs may look too shiny in some ENBs if your [Imagespace] and / or [Wetsurfaces] have high values for certain parameters.
- Sometimes, they don't always look so great/ I might have catfished you, but not really ❤️



2. UNIQUE SKIN TEXTURES VERSION IS UP FOR TESTING!⋆˙⟡♡
It's my first time doing Unique Skin Textures - and I deffo am hella newbie at it. I don't know how SOS & TNG work, so if you get a gaping hole / mismatching pp textures - then uh I'm sorry, it will have to wait ദ്ദി ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ )
- Please report any findings if something is amiss (skin texture seams or smth) - comment respectfully please!



3. GALMAR MAY HAVE SMALL BEARD CLIPPINGS WHEN SPEAKING⋆˙⟡♡
As Galmar uses Beards of Power - there is the known issue of High poly head clipping. However, I have alleviated the clipping through Outfit Studio and haven't noticed anything drastic on my setup. Just a heads up!

My ENB is a mess of edits/tweaks off of other ENB tweaks with a personal reshade preset.
Cabbage ENB for NAT 3 Weather
+ mashup of Rudy ENB for NAT 3 (for certain cells and worldspaces)

𓆩✧𓆪 🔥 I'm open for edits if something is amiss- amiss, as in if I had accidentally messed up some head meshes/skin texture paths (very unlikely hopefully, all my replacers get tested!).
𓆩✧𓆪 🔥However, I won't make a whole new replacer for you if there are certain nitpicks you don't like/wish to integrate or remove! (·•᷄‎ࡇ•᷅)



Finally,
I'm a person who enjoys modding Skyrim on her freetime, along with training to become big buff Nord at the gym with a 9-5 job. Therefore, I might be very bad at replying at once! Sorry about that! ( • ᴖ • 。)

SPECIAL THANKS ~

DarkFox127 - For all the great tutorial videos he publishes on YouTube. After 4 years of modding on my own, his videos have been very helpful
in navigating and understanding Creation Kit and FOMOD processes.
serkethetyt - For bearing with me when harassing her with questions on skin texture paths lmao + the unique edit of Rikke's normal map and diffuse to be more wrinkly-esque!
Ennui - For testing as always, gives me more time to troubleshoot than dread to launch the game HEHE!

The people who were supportive of my previous replacers - I always wanted to try share my creations, but am usually overcome by anxiety, so small kindness goes a long way for me! ( •   • 。) ❤️
