About this mod
This mod offers new textures for your character's eyes.
It's not a direct transfer from the original Skyrim or Fallout mod, but rather a new version of TEOB specifically designed for Starfield.

Starfield Original Mod
QUICK INSTALLATION GUIDE:
1. Download TEOB Textures Installer tool. Extract it somewhere in a folder of your choice.
2. Download all extra Textures Packs you want from Optional Files. Extract them in the Textures folder of the Installer Tool.
3. Run the installer tool, follow the steps listed in it.
4. Choose the textures you want, then click Apply.
Enjoy!
For this initial version, I offer new textures for the eyes that will replace the 'vanilla' textures.
More textures will be added very soon.
The textures will be fully integrated into the game once the Creation Kit allows for adding new archives. Until its release, The Eyes Of Beauty will provide replacement textures.
*This mod fixes the 'blue sclera opacity' effect found on the vanilla eyes.
Feel free to share your images and videos to show us what this mod brings to your game.
Don't forget to TRACK this mod because it will be regularly updated with new textures.
ABOUT SHARING PRESET WITH TEOB
Yes, of course, you can share your presets using this mod, and I encourage it! The only thing I ask is not to include the textures directly in your archive but rather to provide a link to The Eyes of Beauty so that players can download the textures from this page.
A Note from the Author:
I hope you'll enjoy the result as much as I enjoyed working on this project.
Installation:
The easiest way to install the textures for this mod is to use the installation tool. This tool will present you with the game's vanilla textures. You just need to follow the steps outlined in the tool to install the textures you want.
To use the tool, simply download it, extract the archive, and run the tool. The tool contains all the textures from Pack 1 as well as some special textures. If you use the tool, you don't need to download Pack 1 separately.
*When applying texture modifications (Apply button), wait for a confirmation popup message telling you that the operation is completed.
Source code can be found here: GitHub repo feel free to compile it yourself if you prefer, or just look at the code to ensure that it is safe.
However, if you don't want to use the tool, you can download the textures located in the Optional Files and Old Files sections and install them manually following the steps described below.
METHOD 1
Replacer Pack Manual installation:
This will work with Pack 1 Replacer (with or without reflection)
VIDEO: How to install on PC
You must install this mod manually. To do so, extract the 'Data' folder into '..\Documents\My Games\Starfield' (not the game's root folder). If you already have a 'Data' folder there, simply merge it.
You must also have a .ini file named 'StarfieldCustom.ini' in your '..\Documents\MyGames\Starfield' directory, in which the following lines should be present:
[Archive]
bInvalidateOlderFiles=1
sResourceDataDirsFinal=
If you wish to install an optional texture, you must rename it by giving it an existing file name for the game. For example, to replace the blue eye color with the texture featuring the logo, you must rename the texture file to "iris_blue_color.dds." For now, you need to replace an existing texture in the game. When the official modding tool is released, I will be able to provide textures as additional choices without them needing to replace the existing textures in the game.
METHOD 2
Download a texture pack, unzip, choose the textures you want to install, copy them and rename them to fit the names used by the game.
This method is the only one available if you want to install another pack (pack 2, pack3, ...) manually.
Does this work with the Gamepass version? Yes it does. The ini for loading loose files goes into your source folder for xbox game pass games while textures go into your documents > my games > starfield > data (Thanks to SgtDroid01 for the answer).
Is this compatible with Mod Organizer 2? It works, just make sure you're using the beta version of MO2 that supports Starfield as an instance. (thanks to SneakyEwson for the answer)
