LOAD THIS MOD LAST IN YOUR LOAD ORDER SO THE "PLAYER" RECORD IS NOT OVERWRITTEN BY OTHER MODS.
Please leave the bugs section for actual bugs, not "Mod doesn't work" or incompatibility issues. With that said, enjoy.
UPDATE August 1: Hipoly faces mod author added a compatibility patch in their mod page, make sure you install it in their optional files if you want to use this mod alongside it, it's named "HiPoly Faces REDUX - Custom Race patch".
Random update Jun 26: Since most if not all bugs reported were unsolvable mysterious crashes I was unable to fix, I think I've come to the conclusion that it might be due to LooksMenu, this race mod has ALOT of tints and overlays and it might be the cause, so if you crash for no reason try deleting overlay categories like tattoos, facepaints and such via Creationkit or fo4edit.
This is probably a dumb question but idk much about how the races work, what mods would be incompatible with this i only need a couple examples like what hair cut mods, clothing mods, bodys mods, gamplay mods, etc
All clothing mods and body mods are compatible. Haircuts I wouldn't call them incompatible because its a just matter of just copying new records of the hairs to a new esp and change their Race record to AceHumanRace. But there are some hair mods like Anto Hair Pack that don't specify a race in their hair records so they're compatible with any race basically. This's why I didn't make a patch for it. For gameplay I can't really specify mods because any mod that changes the "Player" record is considered incompatible I think, again that's also very easy to patch in fo4edit. Just load all esps and compare the differences then copy from the gameplay mods to the player record in AceMaleRace.esp. For Example, Better locational damage changes the player's record, here's how it's merged: https://i.imgur.com/leBiLdY.jpg
Otherwise this mod shouldn't conflict with anything as it adds it's own new records.
No, none need patching. Though Hardcore Health Overhaul does change the player record but its record barely touches anything (it changes the base health from 40 to 50), so I'd say it doesn't need patching as long as you overwrite my mods esp after it. Everything else in that mod will apply to the Ace race without issue.
Question for hairstyles. I'm trying to make it so that the Misc. Hairstyles mod can work with this mod. How would I go about making it compatible? I'm comparing it to the Anto Hair Pack mod you gave as an example. In Anto's the RNAM - Valid Races slot is empty but if I delete the slot on Misc. Hairstyles it fills it in with NULL - Null Reference [00000000]. Is null acceptable or do I have to do something else. I know you said to change the race record to AceHumanRace but I don't exactly know how to do that. I'm only a tiny bit familiar with XEdit.
You need to add AceMaleRace.esp as a master to find the AceHumanRace in the race slot. If I remember correctly, in fo4edit right click on the hair esp and look for "add master" or something like that. Add AceMaleRace.esp as a master, then you can find the AceHumanRace in the race slot.
For those who want to use the mod in the middle of the game, but are experiencing crashes when loading the game again:
1. Download Race Changer 2. Load a save with your default character 3. Type sexchange twice in the console 3. Open LooksMenu and select the preset 4. Save, close the game, and load it again.
This way you should be able to use it without any problems.
very nice presets and they seem to be kind of compatible with vanilla presets, it has to go to the bottom of the load order to avoid looking disfigured.
I also noticed that it doesn't work with body tattoos as it makes the characters face look like a ghoul. Not a big problem but my tattoos are very similar to one of the styles in the set and Elias looks very similar to me with different hair and eye colour which is easily rectifiable so a bit of a bummer not a deal breaker as I play a winter mod so they wouldn't show.
It should work as I purposefully didn't touch the body to allow people to customise it with other body mods. You can see in some of the screenshots shared by other users that body tattoos do work
One of the best cosmetic mods I've downloaded. Finally can create a male character with a proper hairline, love what you've done to the coarse hairs. Endorsed!
Hi! I love this mod so much! I've been spending HOURS trying to make faces for the male companions! but I did get a crash when I tried to open the race menu of other male companions and transfer the saved preset. Is that supposed to happen? or maybe I downloaded it wrong ;-;
I did try face ripper too! but when I checked in game, it didn't look right...

figured it out, had to delete the lip recolors in the esp
i was wondering if there were similar mods to this for female soles, i would love to make my female soles look as gorgeous as my male soles!
