If the face part slider exists, it should at least be movable to 1 (default head).  On the rare occassion that it's stuck at zero for me, exiting/restarting the game normally fixes it (possibly due to a mod load issue).  If you're playing on SE, an updated RaceMenu is required.

Getting some serious neck gaps as you can see in pic, not sure why. All is good with SAM refits, any advice?

Are you using the latest version of SAM High Poly Conversion?  In an earlier version, the weight slider for that armor in the screenshot was broken.

Some vanilla boot meshes use a translation that alters the boot location and then fix it with a skin transform in the skinning data.  This weird shifting causes issues in Outfit Studio where conforming sliders will fail to work properly.  This was fixed in v4.9.0 (Outfit Studio: Don't render the overall skin transform anymore (not rendered in-game).

For skin textures, I don't use any compression to avoid having strange artifacts and coloration on skin when I'm doing screenarchery.  For low end systems where compression is needed, DXT1 (no alpha) or DXT5 (alpha) is used for the best compatibility.  If you're playing on SE, then BC7 compression is superior and should be used instead.  I'm using the Intel Texture Works plugin for photoshop.

@BatsyBatsBoi You may have another mod that's changing the vampire races.  This includes skill/combat/balance mods.  The fix itself is simple, but it needs to be applied to conflicting mods.  If you change the face part while using a vampire race, the head mesh will not be visible in Sculpt mode.  You have to exit RaceMenu and then open it again to have the head mesh appear.

@tinytearsocean That's normal for the LE CK.  The vanilla head parts have their center located at the origin (0, 0, 0).  Their NiTriShapes use a translation to move the head parts to where they should be on the body in-game.  My high poly head parts (heads, brows, beards, scars) already have the translation applied to avoid future problems.  The LE CK ignores this translation in the preview window.  The exported FaceGen will look the same as the preview window, but they'll work correctly in-game.  The SE CK does not have this issue.

What if I don't have FacePart sliders neither for khajiit nor argonian in racemenu?

Smashman, did you read the description of the mod’s page? There is no support for beast races, not for Khajiits or argonians. 

Support for Khajiit and Argonian races was added in the recent update.  I also added a custom slider to allow the Face Part slider to appear for them.

HI i'm pretty lost how do i download it like i have the file on my computer but how do i link it to skyrim 

I recommend using a mod manager (Mod Organizer, Nexus Mod Manager, etc) to install any mod.  It'll just make life easier.

I may have found a proper fix to prevent the head mesh from reverting back to vanilla when changing to a vampire race.  It involves removing the Overlay Head Part List flag from vampire races (of the vanilla playable races).  This can be easily done in xEdit (copy vampire races as overrides into a new .esp file, remove the Overlay Head Part List flag, and save).  I'll include the fix as an option in the next update along with high poly head meshes for Khajiit and Argonian races.

hey man i did turn that option on from the start. thats why im asking you this.

ihavent been able to fix my problem yet. i even try on a new save with just your mod and my preset on and it still do the same thing.

Your second screenshot suggests that the vampire head morph was used.  The head mesh shouldn't change unless a race change occurs or RaceMenu is used.  Check to make sure that you're not using a mod that actively changes the player's race (eg. a mod that changes player to/from vampire based on feeding habits).

Hi I just found a link to this site and mod. I was wondering is this a direct replacement for Citrus Head mod?

I wasn't satisfied with the Citrus head mesh and decided to make my own.

until i do the dawnguard questline and become a vampire. is this some sort of bug that i can fix?isee the head part also include part for the vampire race too. but somehow after 5 seconds all change i made always revert back to that horrendous creature.

Use the No Sunken Vampire Face option in the installer to remove the vampire head morphs.  Keep in mind that the head will revert back to the vanilla head mesh whenever changing to the vampire race.  This is an issue with the game and/or RaceMenu itself.  One fix is to use the high poly head as a default, but this requires new FaceGen data to be created for all affected NPC's.

KouLeifoh, is it possible if you make adaptor for your nice textures to be compatible with mod "COtR - HQ Characters creation addon for RM"? They have adaptor for standard SAM skin which looks nice but not for yours.

I made a quick template for it found here.  Once I update my texture addon, I'll add a proper template to the downloads.

SAM and SAM Light are not compatible with each other with regards to body textures due to how genitals are managed.  SAM uses a separate texture for genitals while SAM Light has the genitals added on the body texture.

For the feet going through the floor, check to make sure the skeleton scaling for the legs aren't set to a large value.

When I use the Sam morph (self) spell the race menu doesn't open, did I do something wrong when installing?

Make sure you have UIExtensions installed correctly.

Downloaded and installed and now my game won't launch through the skse64 launcher. I can launch an un modded game through the steam launcher.

The issue is your mod setup in general.  Make sure SKSE works before trying anything else.

So my argonian looks like this. It looks like on one half textures are loaded and the other half there is no texture at all. It also doesnt blend in the pelvis. Im overwriting sam light with 4k Dragonic skin.

That texture is not compatible with SAM Light.  If there's a SAM version, then the textures can be edited to make a compatible version with SAM Light.

I hope your mood still good for new Male Khajiit XD XD XD.

The male Khajiit head mesh has a mane that just floats around the neck along with overlapping UV mapping.  Design-wise, I still need to figure out how to fix it without breaking existing textures.

I took a break from modding for a month and came back to a bunch of repeated questions.  It'll take me awhile to go through all of them. ?

To clarify a few things:

• This mod only includes head meshes/morphs.  No eye meshes/morphs are included.  If you use an eye mesh fix that changes vertices/UV, this will break the eye morphs included with RaceMenu.
• The high poly heads are based on the vanilla meshes for compatibility reasons.  This includes flaws in the UV mapping.  The only fixes I made were skin shader adjustment (male head) and UV edge adjustment in the back of the head (female head).  For those that want the UV eye socket adjustment fix for the female head, I can add it as an optional addon in a future update.  This will also require generating new FaceGen data for affected NPC's.
• RaceMenu presets with sculpt data for the vanilla head are not compatible.  Importing them will likely result in a deformed head shape.

The Face Part slider only changes the head mesh.  You'll need to manually change the brows to its high poly version using the Brows slider.  It changes both brow mesh and texture.

@th3unkn0wn You're making it more complicated than it needs to be.  All you need to do is add High Poly Head.esm as a master to CustomRaces.esp and then change the head part for the custom race record to the equivalent high poly head part from my mod (eg. 00KLH_FemaleHeadBreton "FemaleHeadBreton" [HDPT:XX000A08]). No other changes or files to copy needed. 

As for the RaceMenu sliders, you may need a custom races.ini (\meshes\actors\character\facegenmorphs\CustomRaces.esp\races.ini) to assign sliders to custom races if the RaceMenu sliders aren't available in-game.  Since you mentioned that the extra RaceMenu sliders already work for the Citrus head, you may already have a custom races.ini for it.

The sunken vampire faces can be removed by clearing the VampireMorph morph from all the head parts (chargen.tri) using Outfit Studio.  It's a tedious task considering there are also 45 beards to modify.  I can add that as an option for those who prefer it in the next update.

I tested the high poly head in the sculpt tab and got a constant 60 fps.  All 3 high poly parts (head, brows, beard) were enabled for editing.  To try and get the fps to drop, I loaded one of the high poly hair meshes I have (28k vertices) and enabled it for editing.  This dropped the fps down to 20.  All tests were done at 4k (without ENB) on the latest versions of SE (1.5.97) and RaceMenu (0.4.12) running on an i7-7700K with GTX 1070 8GB GPU.  It might just come down to GPU and how Expired programmed the sculpt rendering.

Thank you so much for the port. I love it, one issue I have is elder men have blurry schlongs, I am using SAM lite, High Poly, SMP. I am not certain what to do to fix it. 

The simplest answer is that SAM Light currently does not support elder races.  @y_sengaku created a normal map patch for it.  I've been meaning to redo the normal map for elder race but never got around to do it.
