About this mod

These are my custom edits to Shadowheart, which include a new face and hair.

Introduction:
I'll get the simple stuff out of the way. This mod will replace Shadowheart's face with one that I made, as well as give her new hair. I made her face by taking her original, and make a few tweaks to it to make it in my vision. Overall it's not extremely different, but if you've spent a lot of time staring at Shadowheart (I know I have) you'll probably be able to tell.
For the hair, I simply wanted something to add a little variance. From a lore perspective, any sort of Shar symbolism is gone which makes more sense given how she doesn't reveal her history for a little. Outside of that, I've taken a couple hairstyles and combined them to make something completely new. There may be some issues with the hair, like clipping, and some minor "crunching". I'll try to continue to update if anything is really bad
There are actually spoilers here so if you haven't gotten to Act 3 do not click this

I have also replaced her Selune hair. I think leaving some black kind of respects her history and her turning away from Shar, and also looks good


I have added Shadowheart's head and hair as custom assets, and edited her Character Visual entries.

This mod was made with the toolkit for Patch 7 (I don't think it will work in patch 6, but I don't have a way of testing)

Versions:
There is the main version and the (White Act 3) version. They both do the same thing, except the White hair version removes the multicolored hair for Act 3, and instead has her hair change color as it normally done. (Hairstyle still changes)

In the optional files there are patches for Appearance Edit Enhanced which allow for my mods changes to take effect, and still allow you to change Shadowhearts appearance. MY PATCH MUST BE PLACED BELOW THE MAIN FILE AND APPEARANCE EDIT. The selections in the CC are my versions of Shadowheart's face and hair. You'll know it's working if Shart's options in the CC have "TPT" at the front of them.(There are two evil hairs as she actually has 3 possible hairs, maybe one day I'll add that)
AAE might also effect Shadowheart's makeup, but I'm not totally sure on that.

The optional files don't technically require AAE, and if you do install it without that, it allows you to use Shadowheart's face and hair in the CC, so that's like a little bonus if you want it.

What This Mod Doesn't Do:
  • Edit Shadowheart's Equipment
  • Edit stats
  • Edit class/subclass
  • Edit dialogue
Possible Conflicts:
- Anything that changes Shadowheart's appearance is most definitely going to conflict with this.
- Anything that makes changes to Shadowheart's Character Visual entries.

I do want to do some further testing with some mods that change her equipment, as it really depends on how that mod has changed it.

If anyone does find anything I implore you to share, and see if I can make a patch.
