Greetings! I am the lead developer of the REBORN localization collective. We work with a collection of mods that we integrate and sequentially localize into Russian. As part of this process, we also make adjustments to the mods themselves.

We would like to request your permission to use some of your mods in our project.

Our localization is distributed on a paid basis and is entirely exclusive, meaning it is not available anywhere else.

We focus on the Russian-speaking gaming community, ensuring the highest quality and most well-adapted localization for them. Additionally, some of these mods are part of the Genesis project, with whose developer we have already reached an agreement.

If you have any other proposals, I would be happy to discuss them in private messages.

Is there an easy way to get this to work with custom races? I tried changed the face reference in the FCS to one in this mod, but it didn't work. It mucked up the portrait and the face became super bright so I had to reload my backup.

Great mod btw I love the variety!

thank you

thx for the mod!

my bad..its...because of this one mod..hehe :)

Like I wrote in previous comment, this mod only add textures, specifically face textures. I don't see how this mods can cause problem to anything unrelated to faces.

hi,i found a problem where the hands disappeared,please help :(

Breksus, this mod only add textures. It doesn't change any meshes. Are you sure your problem is caused by this mod? Perhaps you're using custom race mod? I don't see how this mod could cause your game to crash.

Hi the mod leads meanwhile to problems and crashes of Kenshi the Meshes are not loaded correctly with me please times for clarification and maybe times update please

Hi there. You have my permission to use this mod in your project. You might have to credit tetrodoxin and obsidian dawn for their texture/brushes.

Hey. I'm currently making an Overhaul Mod for Kenshi and wanted to ask permission to load the Mediocre Faces lineup internally for the project. I can give you further details in direct messages if you're willing to permit/discuss terms. Add me if you're willing to talk about the matter.

Thanks,

Try it without importing first and see how it goes. I made this for player characters but you might want to import if you want more NPCs to have these faces out in the wild.

wow your mod looks awesome bro, i just have 1 question: i need to import? ty!

Ye

works also with npc?

The armor doesn't clip on vanilla faces with similarly shaped neck/head? Are you sure your issues is cause by this mod? All this mods does is add more face textures, nothing else is changed so I don't think load order matter.

If you want to test, you can try making new start with 2 characters, one with vanilla face, one with this mod. Reset head and body so both are using default setting. Try put the armor on both and see if it only clips on the modded one. Show me the screenshot. If you are sure your issue is caused by my mod, I'll look into it. On hiatus right now so will only troubleshoot if it is confirmed my mod caused it.

I gave it a try. It looks like Breadnought's Facepaints just uses the vanilla face while the Mediocre Faces are separate.

I haven't experienced any issue so far, but I will let you know.

Each of my textures/faces are uniquely named so I don't think it will conflict with any mods out there. Give it a try. If there's any issue, let me know and I'll look into it

Or would I have to use your facepaint mod?

oi__io Would this mod be compatible with Breadnought's Facepaints by Charlie?

Mowkai, this is just basic retexturing of existing face mesh so I would say you will need a basic understanding on how 3D modelling work, especially on how UV map works. Most importantly you'll need to know how to use photo editor like Photoshop or GIMP or any program that can export the texture file as .dds format.

Even better if you know how to use dedicated texturing program like Substance Painter or 3DCoat but that's not required. Most importantly, you'll need to know how to use FCS to make the mod work in game. This is a very basic mod, good for beginner.

I suggest you join Kenshi Discord or Project Genesis Discord. Perhaps someone over there can help guide you with modding in real time. Find the link in the Steam discussion thread. Good luck!

oi__io If i wanted to make mods like this what would i need to start?

Aww man. alright well thank u for all the other mods u make. You got some great ones

Mowkai, sorry but I have no plans on updating this mod for the time being. It is what it is. :c

I appreciate your work and effort, Could you add eyebrows please? for the faces without makeup.

To contrast t original textures.

Initially I planned on updating this mod with new face variants but it is now on hold since I'm currently taking a break from modding Kenshi. I don't know yet when I'm coming back. Sorry about that.

Can you add darker eyes? like dark brown eyes so I can be more Asian looking?

I'm glad you like it

I had difficulty humanizing and being able to truly connect with my characters in Kenshi. This really brings out the life in them. Thank you!

Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate it. :D

This mod is anything but mediocre (which is part of the brilliance of the name, of course). Highly recommended!

Compared to vanilla, most men and women are now far more attractively "normal". Compared to Faces Plus or Advanced Character Creation, they also don't have uncanny and hideous zombie eyes from those mods, so they're infinitely better. =)

Yep. It is enabled for NPCs too.

*NPCs I mean

Does it effect any of the ncs? I could've sworn I saw one of the new faces on a shopkeeper but maybe I'm wrong

This mod adds a bunch of new faces. It didn't replace any of the vanilla ones.

Do the new faces replace the old ones or are they standalone? If they replace is there a way to make a standalone version?

Yeah, I'm not happy with the eyes at all. It looks different in Photoshop. In game it looks all washed out. Anyway, thanks for the input!

Good luck! ^-^ One thing, when you do make those, don't brighten the eyes so much like you do with these. That's part of the problem for me, I think.

I see. I agree with you that natural faces fit the game better than faces with makeup. Initially I wanted to make faces covered in dirt and dried blood and some with old scars or crinkle kinda like what's in vanilla Skyrim but my skillset is limited so I only managed to get 4 natural faces for each gender in this mod.

I wanted to make more of those type in the next update but not sure if I'm able to. If I'm able to make it work, I'll consider making a separate mod just for natural faces :D

Honestly, in this game I feel like the duller, less vibrant faces work better. People looking more natural and weathered rather than covered in makeup and clean. So I don't even tend to use the female faces all the way on the right, for example, I generally stick with #1 or 2.

Thank you. Do you use any other face texture mod? I'm always curious why this mod doesn't do as well as other face mod. I'm thinking about updating this mod in the near future so would like to know how I can improve it. No point in putting a lot of work into it if it's not going to do well. :C

Not really my cup of tea, but I gave you a thumbs up anyways because I can appreciate the work you put into this. :3

Sorry, I don't understand what did you mean by separate? It is a stand alone mod. It's not dependent on any other mod. Did you download it as part of a collection or something like that?

Can i have this mod separate please?

Alright, cheers for the answer

This mod should be compatible with any other mods out there. All the files included in this mod is specifically named to avoid any conflict with others so it's safe to use with Faces Plus or any other aesthetic mods that you prefer :D

This might sound silly, but is this compatible with Faces Plus? I like to have as many aesthetic mods as I can fit without altering gameplay but don't know much about mod conflicts, thus the question.

Alright, hope you enjoy the mod! :D

it worked, thanks! I guess my mods didnt show because i had an older version of kenshi in another location.
