For some reason or another when I installed Oblivion my characters have no eyes. I've never run in to a situation like this and I'm wondering if it might have something to do with my video card, EVGA GTX 680. I'm lost and would appreciate any insight as to what could cause this. OS Win 7 Ultimate, Intel I7 860. Thanks in advance

And mods?

Yes, I have mods installed, from what I've read in doing a search for the problem is that some mods that changes the characters might cause the problem.. I have one installed called "Beautiful People V22 - Male Replacer V3"., but it's not only the males it's the females as well. If I remember correctly, when I first installed Oblivion the characters did not have any eyes. I downloaded a mod called "Elaborate Eyes" to see if the mod would place eyes in the characters, however that didn't work. So I have no clue what could be causing the problem. Just to be sure I'm going to uninstall all the mods I've installed but I don't think it will make a difference. I'll come back and let you know.

You should play the tutorial without any mod installed and activate them only after getting out of the sewers.

This sort of thing is caused by mods not playing well together. If you post your load order, somebody may be able to see where the conflict is.

I have to wonder how well this is going to work. If somebody has installed mods that change the way characters look, it's because they want to use those mods to affect character creation. How is loading such a mod after character creation going to be helpful?
