About this mod
Simple fix to a great mod. Warning: This was a simple FNVEdit thing; I have very little idea what I am doing.

I took this mod off because I was a FOOL! And I thought that comments were still accessible even if the mod was hidden. My bad!
Thanks to the efforts of a lovely Nexus user Aleksandr, this mod is fixed and doesn't fuck up your eyebrows. Full credit to him for fixing this. With his permission (in the comments), I have replaced my fix with his, so this mod should now actually do what it says.
WARNING: I am not confident in my abilities as a modmaker or mod understander. I dabble in FNVedit to make balancing changes for mods that I like, and that's it. I am certain that my methods aren't the best or most efficient they could be. If anyone who actually understands this stuff wants to call me out or kick my ass, they are welcome to. That said: this is a pretty small change that fixed some CTDs I was having, so hopefully it can help you too.
Character Kit Remake is the current state-of-the-art all-npc face mod. It looks really great and gritty, and without all the missed NPCs that you so often get with FCO. It also shies away from pornifying the men and women, like plenty of other face retextures do. The hair mod that comes along with it is equally great, redesigning the current hairs and adding a few excellent custom and lore-friendly hairstyles.
That said, the hair mod has this issue where every humanoid NPC tries to fetch a texture that doesn't exist, prompting a slew of errors per-NPC. These errors are recorded in the error file as:
MODELS: Could not get file for texture textures\bale\hair\male\adult\eyelashes\eyelashes_d_n.dds.
This would lead to excessive memory use and a classic FNV errorless crash-to-desktop, even with a 4GB patcher installed.
So, being the expert mod maker that I am, I went into FNVedit and I replaced every instance of "eyelashes_d_n.dds" with whatever the Vanilla FNV path called for.
That's it. That's all it does. It worked for me, at least a bit, so hopefully it'll help you too.
It requires the DLC that add new human races, so Dead Money, Honest Hearts, and Old World Blues.
Feel free to edit or fix or do anything with this mod.
