You can see a large black gap above the iris. I thought I might be able to fix it by moving the iris forward, but no such option / slider exists. I have tried a variety of mods and online fixes from other discussions about adjusting eyes but I cannot find one that fixes this problem.
I chose female and Imperial before importing each preset. When I imported each, all of the text was green indicating that I had the correct mods in place for the mod, yet I am still encountering this accursed error.
I found a setting called "Eyeball - Depth" courtesy of something I installed and it fixed the eyes.... sort of. The left eye was misaligned and had a part of the iris still marked out with a black shadow that I could not fix. I searched and found other people with the same problem, and one mentioned a fix called something like "symmetrical eyes" but couldn't remember where to find it. I found it.
Apparently, High Poly Head has an option called "symmetrical eye sockets (female)" that you can select to install with the mod. I reinstalled the mod, and voila! The eyes now match each other! It amazes me that symmetrical eyes isn't the default option!!
OTHER PROBLEMS I still cannot make a complete match for this preset because the creator did not detail all the other mods / options required when creating the preset. And some of the mods weren't quite the right ones - which would make sense for anyone who installs a heap of visual / character mods. See my tale of woe below.
BROWS I tried all the settings in the CBBE and Kalilies Brows but none of them came out as thick as in the screenshots. They were just as thin as in the screenshots. I gave up and installed the Brows Mod to chose FemaleBrows2D and adjusted the thickness to suit.
HAIR KS Hairdos did not have anywhere near the fine texture that the screenshot had. I found that the name of the hair referred to in the preset was called Windy City and chased down a High Texture variant, and found it in the mod SC - KS Hairdos Retextured. I couldn't find the same hair colour so I am settling for the default preset.
LIPS Couldn't see any that came close, they were flat or matte. I installed Seductive Lips and worked with that for the shine.
SKIN I followed the link to BIJIN Skin and it was all flat white and I couldn't find anything as a replacement that I was happy with. I gave up on this.
I hope this helps others who get similarly hooked on this preset. Good luck out there.

I will still continue to see if I can find this error, but any help you can provide would be appreciated. It really looks great.
If you have any other comment about what I can do to make the character look more like yours, that would also be appreciated.
I found a setting called "Eyeball - Depth" courtesy of something I installed and it fixed the eyes.... sort of. The left eye was misaligned and had a part of the iris still marked out with a black shadow that I could not fix.

straight nightmare fuel right here.
I tried doing it and I don't see much difference but I wanted to be sure.
Thanks anyway! Great preset, I love it.
