Quick guide to set your gameplay as a child

1.- Select a child preset (included with CPC) in the LooksMenu at the start of the game or by using the console command "slm 14" without quotes.

2.- Once you're done with your customization, use the console command "player.setrace hc" without quotes.

3.- To make your character smaller, use "player.setscale .825" without quotes (.825 is a good size for children, but you can use whatever number you want).

4.- If terminals are too tall for your character, use stonefisher's Any Terminal at Any Height mod.

FAQ

- Known issue: I just finished creating my character in front of the mirror, but there is a huge neck gap and the body looks like it belongs to a 30 year old jogger!

- Known Solution: This is not actually an issue, but it may be confusing for new players. When you start the game, your character will be wearing an adult outfit, the neck seam is due to the fact that adult body and the child head simply don't match. Look for clothing options in the mods below; bare in mind that you will need to craft them later in the game, so you will always have an adult body during the introduction.

- Known issue: My character has a brown face!

- Known solution: Don't be racist.

- Known issue: My character has a brown face that doesn't match with the rest of the skin!

- Known solution: This is a glitch that may happen whenever you load a save from within your game (or a previous save is loaded after you die), try exiting to the main menu and reloading your save from there instead.

- Known Issue: My character has a black face that doesn't match with the rest of the skin!

- Known solution: If the previous solution didn't solve this, then you're dealing with a glitch that was introduced by Bethesda with the High Resolution Texture Pack, and a few other mods that are using a high res face texture; to fix it you will need the mod High Res DLC Black Face Fix, by HizFather.

- Known Issue: My child character is wearing a child outfit, but now it has a small, but noticeable gap on the neck area and the sides of the neck!

- Known solution: This is a weird glitch too; you will need to re-apply your character's preset to close the gap. A way to fix this on the long run is by forcing F4SE to remember exactly where to position the vertices on the face's mesh; to do this, alter the shape of the areas around the ears and neck slightly in the LooksMenu and save that small change as a preset, then save your game. If the gaps ever appear again, just re-apply the preset you saved, you may need to do this a couple of times before the change becomes "permanent".
