Origins mod problems - disembodied heads

floating heads or 'invisible armour/clothing' is probably one of two things: an Item Variation conflict or a missing model/mesh.

I have some info on what Item Variations are and why conflicts arise here.

And if it's the latter (missing assets) the remedy is to reinstall the mods, making certain that there are no additional requirements. I've never used any of the mods you've listed so I can't offer any specific advice.

No clothes is probably because they were equipped with items from IA. NPC gear is 'locked' into a save when you first enter the map.

And yes, modding is an adventure.

A merged chargenmorph file can't and won't have any affect at all on clothing or armour mods; it only governs what assets are available for use in the Character Creator during chargen.

The chargenmorphcfg.xml file is only used by the in-game CC, and does not contain information about or govern any aspect of clothing or armour. (Recompiling it won't hurt anything, but it's not going to help with clothing or armour mod issues, either.)

If you aren't actively using the CC (for example, you are in the middle of a game with an existing character) you don't even need a chargenmorphcfg.xml in override.

In desperation, I did what they always tell you to do: do a clean reinstall. And after the game files finished loading, I carefully reinstalled the mods I needed, making sure to use the compiler on the chargen files. Most of these chargen were in character modification utilities. I was trying to use the two mods above to create something other than a generic Warden with the same lame faces and hairstyles. That worked, more or less. Some of the mops from the Ferelden Models mod were now usable. The one I wanted the most, though, still had some quirky problems, though. Weird, unnatural eyes and skin that just wouldn't turn the right shade (I was trying for light-skinned Caucasian.) Anyhow, at least a partial success for using those two character mods.

Then the moment of truth in the City Elf Origin: the priestess came in again as a floating head! Rereading the installation instructions, they mentioned the Nexus Mod Manager. I had installed the "Of Ferelden" mod by extracting folders directly to the override file. I've now reinstalled that mod using NMM. Hopefully no more floating heads and naked Templars!

One of the joys of modding, it's happened to me too. Only removing mods one by one identified the culprit.

No sorry, I download manually.

I have all those outfits changed in my game but don't have that mod.  I think they're part of Improved Atmosphere.
