There is a Python script to do it but as far as I know it is only available as part of paid-for content. Works really well though, almost no hiccups at all. Only thing I've noticed is that English players with obviously Asian names get assigned Northern European faces. I can PM you later if you're interested in more details...

I managed to remove the white halos by batch processing a simple script in Paintshop Pro utilizing the feathering tool. Combining this with ethnically specific automatic assignment and now every regen in my save has a proper face. =) Took some years to achieve but finally I have a game that SI should have made to begin with...

Excuse my French, but... Holy fuck, this is amazing. Currently using a 3D-face newgen pack, which works incredibly, but this is next-level. You mention that you could theoretically generate millions of them, but about 5% are bad. If you're willing, I'd gladly help you sort through the generated images, identify the bad ones, if it means a larger selection of faces. Obviously not millions, but from my experience, ~15.000 is where you reach a point that duplicates are so rare, you don't really notice them when you see them. Even half that would be great. Hit me up if it's something you'd be interested in, but naturally it's fair if it's too time-intensive, I don't know how long these take to generate :-)

These are amazing! We need more of these. Since there is no way to link these faces to skin colour of regens (as of now) anyway, you could just randomly assign those to newgen IDs like its done in the Zealand Regen Pack. These are much better faces than in that pack.

First off, this is great! I've been using real faces to replace regens for 4 years now, and I was starting to struggle to find good faces for some ethnicities, that I hadn't used yet. So a theoretically endless supply of faces is perfect!

I also might have a solution for the first problem (being able to generate a specific hair color or ethnicity). Now I don't really know how the whole StyleGAN thing works (I looked at it briefly in the past, but I found it a bit to complicated), but could you in theory just use a bunch of images of for only example blond white guys to ensure you generate a blond white guy?
If that does work and you've not done it because it's too much work to sort through face packs and select all the blond guys, then maybe a facepack like this would help? It was made back when you just replaced regen hairstyles with faces so it's fully sorted by ethnicity, hair colour and hair length.

Again, no idea if that's an option and maybe you already thought of it yourself and it's too much work with the training of StyleGAN for a bunch of different smaller image sets or something else, but it might be useful.

This is amazing, just gave all my youth intake a face, amazing for my youth only save, can't believe these aren't real people, extraordinary .
Can't thank you enough, they look great. My only gripe is that they do need cleaning up a bit if they're used on a dark skin as they have white ghosting around them but its not a deal breaker and can be done one by one as I use them.
Is there any chance you could do older ones for staff?
Thanks again
