I am starting a new game loading in to the capital city with the TTW mod.

The other mod I most wanted to use are the character overhauls by Dracomies (Two Wastelands Redesigned, which combines New Vegas Redesigned 2 and FO3's Project Beauty/FO3 Redesigned).

Since the New Vegas Redesigned 2 mod included in that package doesn't have the updated and new character models from 3, I tried to install New Vegas Redesigned 3 on top of it, using this patch as well: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/78606?tab=description.

I also tried to put Brave New World with both voices and faces on top of all of that along with a BNV-TTW patch. I've disabled Brave New World but still see the same kids' faces at the party, so I assume BNW is unrelated.

I shouldn't have any other mod that would be overwriting or doing anything with the FO3 faces, so while I could try to download Quinn's version of FO3 and see if that works, it shouldn't be affecting FO3 in the first place. But I see there is even a newer version of that: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/72951. Again, I am not sure this is the issue since I am having problems with FO3 faces. I also think it's not Brave New World, because I've disabled that.

Can anyone advise about what may be going wrong with Two Wastelands Redesigned in my game? It seems like this should have been an easy install, so I feel it must be something stupid.

Also, can anyone confirm that Two Wastelands Redesigned even changes the faces of the birthday party kids at the beginning of Fallout 3 in the first place...?

Thank you!

Edit: To be clear, a face I thought was changed in FO3 (Amanta) based on the screenshots for that mod, just looks normal. I would have expected a crash, a shape for a head, or any number of things. But instead it's like there is no effect at all despite all of those NPC overhaul mods.

This is the screenshot that is making me believe my NPC overhaul mods aren't working: https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/mods/120/images/6341-1-1252726085.JPG. While I don't care for that redesign, I know there will be issues if I try to progress in the game without confirming she has been changed. ***Also, I downloaded the New Vegas mod that includes that FO3 mod, not the FO3 mod. It's possible that they reverted her face for the New Vegas mod but didn't say they did?

EDIT: I have found some of the faces early game (Paul, older Amata) that seem to match other FO3 Redesigned images. It seems like the young Amata change may not be reflected in the TWR mod for TWW in case anyone else runs into this and is about to waste hours reinstalling and messing around with their mods for no reason.
