About this mod
Alters the Named Male NPCs of Nuka World to use the new ACE Male Race by facelessez - Currently only Gage/Mason for now
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
Overview
I am having fun working on faces with the new Ace Male Race and honestly I decided to make some NPC replacers for my favorite companions. Since I occupy Nuka World mostly, I worked on the Named Male NPCs (Mason and Porter Gage for now) to get them on the cool new race mod. I picked companions I mostly interact with with a goal of trying to get them as close in spirit to their vanilla looks as I can.
Included Edits (so far)
Porter Gage
I know the Facelessez already edited Gage for the mod, but I wanted to get closer to his vanilla looks with some modifications based on how I take pics of him. I leaned more into him being mixed race and decided to give him some Locs as well as a more scruffy beard. Overall he's pretty good in my opinion and I enjoy this take on him.
Mason
Leaned once again into recreating his vanilla face as best as I can (and in the more realistic style of this head). I left his hair vanilla since I quite like it with his facial features. I did remake his face paints and set them up as they were layered on so he looks close to his original looks.
Notes
Because there's not a way to get NPCs to wear custom makeup injected via Looksmenu (And I didn't want to have to patch the mod to add a few face paints only used on one NPC) I opted to replace 4 of the face paints in the original Ace Male Race mod (Face Paints 30-33) so that Mason could have his face paint.
Gage's Eyes are custom (he is blind under his eyepatch!!) and are playable as well!
I'm unsure if I'll do the rest of the Nuka World NPCs - Savoy wouldn't be worthwhile as he keeps his mask on all the time and I opt to kill off the operators so wasting time on making William is meh to me. Cito, Shank, and a few others are possible.
NEXTGEN Update info: There is a confirmed bug in NextGen that affects NPC edits and may cause a slight stutter or delay loading when mods edit multiple NPCs in one area. Since this is 2 NPCs who aren't usually in the same space it shouldn't cause issues, BUT it is possible it may cause minor stutters. There isn't anything I can do about it as it's a beth introduced bug.
