[REQ] FaceGen Face Exchanger or Something Similar : Fallout: New Vegas

» Fri Apr 02, 2010 7:06 am

OK I've added the New Vegas file format to my FaceGen face exchanger. The offset for the face data seems to be the same for all my NV files but like the Fallout save files it could be in a slightly different place for a few people. I'm going to put up a link to a pre-release version. Can those that are interested let me know if it works OK with their save files?

If you find that your face doesn't change when you've updated the save file then try starting Steam in off-line mode so that the steam cloud doesn't try to overwrite your save with it's saved version.

I've also added an option to save a hex dump of the facegen data to a text file for cut and pasting into FONVEdit.

You can download it from http://www.oblation.eu/downloads/FaceGenExchange0-4.zip.

I succesfully imported my character from F03 to FNV, for people how are interested, it's a bit tricky but here is how i did it :

Download the facegen exchange "fo3edit version" http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=9064
Download FNV edit (beta version) http://newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=34703
Download geck for fnv from official site

Now, the trick :

[list=1]

[*]Open the geck, create a new .esp file by editing one of the npc preset of your character "race" (like "CGPresetCaucasianF01" for caucasian female preset 1 or "CGPresetHispanicM04" for hispanic male preset 4), change the hair for exemple and save (this will create a new esp files with your modification only)
[*]Open FNV edit and select only the esp you created before. Browse in your esp and find the line with your modified "CGPreset" npc, click on it and go to facegen data, the will be 3 hexadecimal value.
[*]Open facegen exchange and go find your savegame from F03 with your good-looking character and click "transfer". 3 hexadecimal code will appear.
[*]Copy the three line in order from facegen exchange and replace the 3 line of facegen data of your esp. Be carefull in fnv edit, you will need to press shift and click on the value for change it, (it will open a long string editor) if you try to use the "edit" function it will broke your esp.

Thank you, Kospy! Worked like a champ! I installed the FO# facegen presets before attempting this, so I could get a proper match, and there it was! I had edited preset 4, but it showed up on preset 7. Either way, it's the only face I use, so all is good!

I've noticed that exchanger gives delimiter error if my saved character is using caucasian preset. Everything's fine when I'm using AfricanAmerican or Spanish preset tho.

http://www.oblation.eu/downloads/FaceGenExchange0-5.zip works fine with characters based on caucasian presets.
