How to Import Random Faces into Oblivion Remastered: A Complete Guide

Are you tired of spending hours tweaking facial sliders in Oblivion Remastered's character creator? Our Random Face Generator tool lets you create unique character appearances with just a few clicks, making your adventures through Cyrodiil more exciting than ever before.

What This Tool Does

Our web-based Random Face Generator creates completely randomized facial features for your Oblivion Remastered character. You can:

  • Generate bizarre or natural-looking faces with different distribution settings
  • Download a preset file with all the random values
  • Import these values directly into your game
  • Create memorable characters without the tedious slider adjustments

⚠️ CRITICAL: Always save your game before using any character customization features!

How to Use the Random Face Generator in 3 Simple Steps

1. Generate Your Unique Face

Choose your randomization settings to control how natural or bizarre you want your character's face to be:

  • Uniform distribution: Completely random values (less natural looking)
  • Normal distribution: Values that tend toward the center (more natural looking)
  • Extreme distribution: Values that favor the extremes (particularly bizarre)

2. Download Your Preset File

After generating a face you like, select the file type you want to download and click the "Download" button to save the values as a file on your computer. If you want to use the RaceMenu Utilities to load the preset, you need to download the preset in JSON format. If you want to use the in-game race menu, you can download in TXT or Oblivion format.

3. Import the Face into Your Game

Method 1: Using RaceMenu Utilities (Recommended)
  1. Install the required mods:
  2. Save your downloaded preset in:
    [Game Folder]\OblivionRemastered\Content\RaceMenuUtilities\Presets
  3. Launch Oblivion Remastered
  4. IMPORTANT: Make sure you're on the "Overview" tab of the character creation menu
  5. Open console (~) and type:
    rmu load "YourPresetName"
Method 2: Using Console Commands (No Mods Required)
  1. Press the tilde (~) key to open the console
  2. Type showracemenu and press Enter
  3. Manually adjust each slider according to the values in your downloaded preset file
Method 3: For Existing Characters (Safest Method)
  1. Install "Keep Your Stats After RaceMenu"
  2. ALWAYS SAVE YOUR GAME FIRST!
  3. Equip and cast the "Safe Race Menu" spell
  4. Open console (~) and type showracemenu
  5. Apply your random face values
  6. Close the race menu with your stats preserved

Important Notes & Troubleshooting

  • Using console commands will disable Steam achievements on that save file
  • The randomizer creates unusual faces that may clip through helmets
  • Game Pass users may have saves in OneDrive instead of local folders
  • The RaceMenu Utilities mod works best when used in the "Overview" tab of character creation

Frequently Asked Questions

Will using this tool affect my game achievements?

Yes, using console commands (like showracemenu) will disable Steam achievements for that save file. To preserve achievements, use Method 1 (RaceMenu Utilities) or Method 3 (Safe Race Menu spell).

Will I lose my character's stats when changing appearance?

By default, yes. However, you can prevent this by either:

  • Using the "Keep Your Stats After RaceMenu" mod
  • Using RaceMenu Utilities mod
  • Creating a new character (stats won't be affected during initial creation)

Where do I find my preset files?

For RaceMenu Utilities, presets should be placed in:
[Game Folder]\OblivionRemastered\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\Mods\RaceMenuUtilities\Presets
Dowload UE4SS first, then unzip it to the Win64 folder.

Why do I need to be on the "Overview" tab?

The RaceMenu Utilities mod works most reliably when loading presets from the Overview tab in character creation. Loading from other tabs may result in incomplete or incorrect face loading.

Can I use this with an existing character?

Yes! Use Method 3 (For Existing Characters) which uses the Safe Race Menu spell to preserve your character's stats and progress while changing their appearance.

What if my face looks too extreme or clips through helmets?

Try using the "Normal" distribution setting for more natural-looking faces, or adjust individual sliders manually after loading the preset. Some extreme facial features may clip through helmets - this is a limitation of the game engine.
