Fair Lords

Description
"But swich a knyghtly sighte trewely.
As was on hym was nought withouten faille.
To loke on Mars that god is of bataille." ~Chaucer's "Troilus and Criseyde"


This mod once used a conversion of "Fair Skin Complexion" by HHaleyy as a starting point. Thank you for permitting conversion!

REMASTERED OCTOBER 2024 and updated Jan 2025

I have completely repainted my textures from scratch. The Remastered skins are highly detailed while still faithful to the aesthetic. Men have additional pores and fine lines on their normal map. The lips are slightly fuller in shape than vanilla. I added many small details, including moles and veins, as well as fingernails and toenails. No one should look flat or airbrushed. I also "trimmed" the stubble so that it no longer grows over the lips and ears. The coloration of these textures is completely identical to the Ladies. Please see the new images for comparisons with vanilla.

For ease of comparison, the men in my sample images use the exact same genes as Fair Ladies models. All of these npcs were randomly rolled.

Because the Fair Lords Remastered skins are slightly more saturated than the vanilla skins, if you are using a mod that increases the portrait saturation, you may find them more vibrant than you expect. To take these screenshots, I used a portrait brightener, but I manually turned the mod's saturation setting back to the vanilla level.

UPDATE JAN 2025: Textures now match my new FLE versions. (The details are slightly lighter, but remain fundamentally the same.)


Updated for 1.16

The mod currently includes:

  • nine face diffuse maps
  • two body diffuse maps
  • two stubble decals
  • two stubble normal maps
  • one face normal map



FAQ

Where should I place this in my load order?

It probably doesn't matter. If you have another mod that contains face textures, place this one below that one.

Should I use this with X mod?

If the mod in question uses extended textures, use the extended version of this mod. Otherwise, probably? This mod is compatible with off-site mods that alter the body mesh.

Why isn't this compatible with Ethnicities & Portraits Expanded (EPE)?

Nothing will break if you use them together. The game will run fine. You just won't get the intended effect of either mod.

Should I use this with Fair Ladies?

Yes. This mod can be used alone but is intended to be used with Fair Ladies. Without the partner mod, the lips will not look the same, because you will be missing a lip color decal.

Should I use this with Fair Ladies/Lords Expanded?

No. That is not necessary and will only take up space on your system.

@YellowCross If you're talking about the little yellow triangle warning in the launcher, then you can usually ignore it and smaller mods like this. The launcher only reads a mods descriptor file, which has absolutely no bearing on the mods functionality.

@tilarium I didn't play with it so as to not break the save. But if it is probably good to go, I'm going to test it in the coming days, thought there is some reason for the author to not give the "flag" that it is good to go on 1.17.0 and above.

@YellowCross what did you find about it that isn’t working and needs an update?

Hello, will there be an update for 1.17.0 and above?

@Chocoroom Did you test it to see if it needs an update? I didn't see anything in the patch notes that would break this (or other character appearance mods). But sometimes changes can affect unrelated things.

looking forward to update

@ᚬᛏᛁᚾ I spun up a quick testing game for Elf Destiny. I think my ear texture looks fine on their elven ear morphs! Yes, they are compatible.

Is this compatible with Elf Destiny?
