Does anyone still have the "NPC Appearance Changer" mod?

[kmwalker]

Does anyone still have the "NPC Appearance Changer" mod from nexus? I used to love how simple it was to use. It's been a few months since I last modded skyrim and I can't seem to find the mod anywhere. (I would use Proteus, but that mod continues to corrupt my saves so fuck it.)  Any help would be appreciated.

Nexus API also says it is unavailable. Probably only available to paying users with access to collections:

{
  "code": 403,
  "message": "Mod not available: 41135"
}

 

Does this work?

I actually use that mod! It's main purpose is adding overlays or tweaking bodyslides for NPC's, but not anything core like hair, skin, eyes etc. I did end up finding the appearance changer mod through the wayback machine, if anyone wants it, it's here: https://web.archive.org/web/20221209053201/https://dl-file.com/4ai1byujdzxz/RaceMenuPresetLoader-105545-1-0-0-1605858968.7z.html

Mind sharing the mod? The link keeps crapping out on me (infinite loading).

Not at my house currently but as soon as I am I'll see if I can find the file!

Dumb question, but doesn't "Manipulator" have the same feature (Point at NPC, open MCM, select "people" and then "Racemenu Cosmetic".

 

It does exactly what you describe: Change morphs, overlays and so on, but not hair, skin, etc.

I searched the name of the file from the link and got this. I don't know if it is the correct mod for NPC Appearance Changer or not though as the race menu preset name may mean it isn't? Anyway here is a link that worked for me https://dl-file.com/4ai1byujdzxz/RaceMenuPresetLoader-105545-1-0-0-1605858968.7z.html

Glad you were able to narrow it down, I also have the raw file here as well in case that goes down: RaceMenuPresetLoader.rar

That's what I use Standalone EFF Cosmetic Menu for. In case I want to add tattoos to an NPC, or change their body morphs. the NPC Appearance Changer mod allows you to completely copy over a Racemenu preset to an NPC. I haven't had a single issue with it and it works like a charm

Interesting. So kinda like "LazyFollowers", except instead of spawning new NPCs, you can apply racemenu presets to existing NPCs?

Pretty much. I've used this and Proteus' similar script before, but this one works way better. The only issues I've ever had are the occasional texture mismatch or it forgetting the sculpt, which is fixed by just reapplying the preset. It's really a great mod, shame it's so hard to acquire nowadays.

In this case it might actually be interesting to me. I've been considering to recreate a few custom followers i had in Oblivion for Skyrim, but neither do i understand CK nor can my system run it. Proteus to me looked like a battlecruiser waiting to sink under it's own weight. LazyFollowers seemed more sane, but still i red that issues are abundant.

 

Meanwhile i have accumulated dozens of random followers at my homebase, all rescued from banditcamps. If it's safer and more reliable to use them for this, i'd be happy to. The only issue is the name - although i guess i could just make a patchmod in xedit to rename them?

 

Also, i recall dynamically applying racemenu-profiles is an experimental feature. I'm running an older version of RM (4.19.14). Do you know when this feature was introduced?

4.19.14 is a relatively recent version so I can't imagine it's not included, but I could be wrong.

The mod is still available but in a different mod page, along with requirements.
