Here is a short tutorial on how to use the Fallrim tool to delete the FaceGenData of any NPC stored in your Savegame.

Tutorial

Download and install Fallrim Tool

Note. This tool need Javascript runtimes installed in your PC

I have always managed to use a portable Java script environment but for this tool this didn't works.

Say you messed with the face of Valga Vinicia, her facegen data were embedded in your savegames and you ended with having her having neck seams.

What ever you do:

disable/enable (not working)

markfordelete (you are going to loose her good here)

starting with a clean Helgen Keep save didn't works as long as you are using the mod that edit her face loaded (this didn't work and I confirm that!!)

What is working?

Load your save in Fallrim

I'm not going to advise you to clean the save

instead you are going to delete a single reference from the savegame

this reference noted ACHR (by the game and this cleaning tool) correspond to 0003A198

in the case of Valga Vinicia. You will need only the 5 last digits 3A198 in Fallrim search menu.

When found just delete it and resave with a new name.

Follow the screenshots for more help.

That's it.———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Tutorial

Download and install Fallrim Tool

Notice. This tool requires the Javascript runtime to be installed in your PC

I've always managed to use the Portable Java Script Environment, but for this tool that doesn't work.

Say you messed with Valga Vinicia's face, her facegen data was embedded in your save game, and you ended up with her neck seam.

No matter what you do:

Disable/Enable (not working)

markfordelete (you will relax her benefits here)

Start with a clean Helgen Keep save as long as you load it with the mod that edits her face (this doesn't work, I confirm!!)

What job?

Load your save in Fallrim

I'm not going to suggest you clean up and save

Instead you will remove a single reference from savegame

This reference states that the ACHR (via the game and this cleaning tool) corresponds to 0003A198

As far as Valga Vinicia is concerned. In the Fallrim search menu you only need the last 5 digits 3A198.

Once you find it just delete it and save it again with a new name.

Follow the screenshots for more help.

That’s all.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
