TURN ARCHIVE INVALIDATION OFF THEN ON AGAIN. READ THE FAQ IN THE DESCRIPTION AND ALSO READ BUG REPORTING BELOW BEFORE REPORTING ANY PROBLEMS
Bug Reporting
If you are going to report a bug, first make sure you have toggled Archive Invalidation off then on and read the whole description. If your error still occurs post your bug report in a way that means I can actually help e.g. -
The id of the NPC if it's a bug with an NPC (open console and click the NPC and note NPC id at the top.)
If it is a problem with your character let me know the race you are using.
Screenshots are required if it is a visual bug and you want me to help. Please also be as descriptive as possible, if you aren't then again I can't help you and you won't get a response.
PLEASE READ THE ABOVE AND THE DESCRIPTION
If you post about seams (without following the installation instructions), asking me to make a compatibility patch for hair mods, or about white faces and black bodies, or just comments that are covered in the description they will be deleted (I'd rather spend my time working on the mod then answering questions that I have already answered).
Also if you guys have any suggestions for what you would like to see more of or something new from this mod please comment and let me know!
I do not have time to support this mod currently, feel free for anyone to release any bugfix patches for the mod. You can find one created by lunarionsilver here.
Disclaimer: The installation process is bugged, regardless of not selecting a companion mod change option, the mod still installs the Russell companion .esp file and for some reason the bloody .esm file is missing. That .esp file needs to deleted unless you have the required .esp files to make it run or the game will crash. And the uploader's disclaimer hidden in the comment section is appalling. The mod fix he referred apparently worked (i mean all does is add the .esm as far as i'm concerned) I traveled through the abyss to discover that, hope i save someone the time I lost trying to get this awesome mod to work. Can't let the +47k endorsers have all the fun while people like me are stuck in limbo, dying to not dare do another playthrough staring at the same playdoe faces.
Strange...I didn´t encounter that, but whta is weird: if I enable the "sweat" option, the installer puts a file called "FCO-sweat" in my data folder...without any extention, so I had to rename it to "FCO-sweat.esp"..... ??
Ola Modders! I did not read the warning and the mod borked my game setup (like: completely). After install, there were lots of trees and cactus missing (black). Deactivating WFO helped, but a reinstall didnt fix anything and I do not want to play without WFO. I do not know exactly what went wrong but it did. So much so that in the end I had to begin again from scratch and it has cost me some hours. Settled for Redesigned II.
I am sad, since this is/was the best NPC Overhaul mod ever. But, Bug Reporting? As far as I can see, it is one big bug in 2025. So sad. Maybe I could get it to work if id try hard enough but I do not want to take the risk of wasting more hours... Just want to play now...
In case somebody is interested in it, this is my current load order. It is a rather conservative/stability build. Working like a charm on my low end rig so far. Didnt want to make concessions to any possible incompatibilites.
Good, as far as I see the Race addon mod only works for male characters, is there no way to put it to the female sex? I select a woman as a character and I get the pink face, I have approved the fix that is out there of the pink face and it does not work. On the other hand, it works great for men.
"Multiple broken file paths which cause missing mesh triangles and pink textures. The installer auto-selects patches for mods you don't have installed and installs the Glowing Ghouls file which causes massive performance drops and save bloat. It doesn't cover every NPC in the game (plus NPCs from the DLCs or mods), so any uncovered NPCs look very out of place. It requires the bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles INI setting to be enabled, which causes performance loss due to generating NPC face textures on the fly in-game. It also overwrites many YUP fixes for NPCs. I recommend New Vegas Redesigned 2 Revised or Character Expansions Revised instead."
I swear I don't know how people are having problems with it. I installed the main file normally in MO2 and... it worked completely fine. I didn't have to do any fixing and there are no bugs.
Even If you personally didn't have trouble with it, the mod is unfinished. As stated "So many uncovered NPC's". This mod was ambitious, but like most ambitious mods it's a flip of the coin if they ever reach completion. Maybe this mod was on to something years ago, but for whatever reason it was left behind.

This is taken from the Viva New Vegas guide. I personally recomment Character Kit Remake and character kit remake hair and teeth along with Simple Character Expansions
This mod is old. its not good to use old mods as the community is very active and new mods are constantly made as alternatives to older, broken mods.
