Files are now ESL Flagged. 

It's official!  The world is insane, so I have been keeping myself very busy burying my head in Skyrim creating more male NPC overhauls.  Next stop, the Reach.  It was originally just going to be Markarth, but I figured what's another ten more men.  So I spent quite a bit of time creating fifty-eight...you got it.  58 MEN (got to make sure I get that number right)!  Now they aren't all gorgeous, but I threw in a bit of creative freedom here in there...I'm looking at you Argis the Bulwark.  I mean, who wants to marry someone that looks like that drunken Degaine?  I mean really.  So here we are with men overhauled in Markarth, Karthwasten, and Left Hand Mine.  I'm sure I could have added others, but who wants to do all them Forsworn?  Not me!  They are just going to die by my greatsword anyway, or a well-placed arrow.  Crazy, the lot of them!

I have created a video that showcases all the men I updated and provided it below.  If you want to know who is who, just check out the image section.



Please endorse if you love this mod or if it's not causing insurmountable pain.



1. APPEARANCES: There are NO skin textures attached to this mod.  That means you will have to suffer atrocious vanilla skin textures if you download.  The good news is, it will accept any skin mod you wish to use.  Please be aware that your NPCs will look a bit different than mine using different skin textures.  I also use Silent Horizons ENB and Cathedral Weathers, so images may look different from mine.

2.  ANIMATIONS:  I created these using High Poly Head V4.  It will need Expressive Facegen Morphs and Expressive Facial Animation Male.  High Poly Head is baked into the mod, but not the animations.  With that said, some have used this mod without them with no problems.  If you find beard clipping or weird eyes, install these mods.  If not, you should be fine.

3.  EDITING:  Please do not ask me to change appearances or remove tattoos, or ask me to remove NPCs.  I won't do it and you can't make me.  Please... just stop asking.  Thank you!

4.  LOAD ORDER:  These do NOT work with other NPC mods that change the appearance of the men of the Reach.  NPCs should go down towards the end of your load order.

5.  REQUIREMENTS:  You will need to have USSEEP downloaded.  Seriously, everyone should have this by now.  It just makes my life a heck of a lot simpler that I don't have to do patches and extra files.

6.  All the men in the images use Tempered Skins with SOS Light, KS Hairdos, Apachii Skyhair, and HC Hairdos.


Mods to avoid:
Same NPC overhauls - blackface issues
Mods that change the body size - neck seam issues (floating heads)
Improved Eye Reflections (Oldrim) - cataract looking eyes
