About this mod

A patch for Qwinn's Refined New Vegas Redesigned 3 to overwrite vanilla faces forced by Brave New World.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Explanation:

For the most part, Brave New World with Voices and Faces (BNW) is compatible with Qwinn's Refined New Vegas Redesigned 3 (QRNVR3) out of the box, if you want to use BNW faces alongside QNVR3's. 

There are a few "exceptions": BNW uses new faces for most of its voiced NPCs with new races/facegen textures. However, BNW uses vanilla faces for some of its revoiced NPCs. These vanilla faces override those of QNVR3, causing some interesting results. For example, Captain Curtis in the video below:



This patch uses QRNVR3 faces to override these vanilla faces for 8 NPCs from Brave New World.

I kept vanilla faces for 2 exceptions that I can think of:

  • Ranger Gomez: default (hispanic) better than nvr3 (middleaged) and fits the BNW voice actor
  • Dixon: QRNVR3 version has terrible neckseam with Improved Vanilla Male Body

Let me know if there are any other issues.

Installation:
For the mod order (the left pane in MO2), put this patch below all BNW or QRNVR3 mods/patches.

Ignore the esps that you don't have.

Plugin order (right pane):

FCOMaster.esm (unchecked)
New Vegas Redesigned 3.esm
BraveNewWorld.esm
NVR3_YUP Patch.esp
NewVegasRedesignedType4-Patch.esp

QFNVR3-Override-Vanilla-BNW-Faces-Patch.esp

More details:
Any BNW faces that were any different from vanilla in FNVEdit (xEdit) were left alone. If you want to include more QRNVR3 faces to overwrite BNW faces, you can look at the file structure for this mod to see what you need. Essentially there's 2 steps:
  • Make the patch in FNVEdit for the FaceGen data
  • Include the face tints (.dds) files that you want to overwrite with
