the workaround from last patch that warak posted no longer works and instead produces a second gale floating in the void, i havent tested if this second gale is regular because honestly im not sure how to get them out of the void. its spooky
I haven't had any luck getting the mirror to work with this mod no matter what I do. Every time I try the game crashes. Is there any workaround or method to get it to work? I've tried the old version and the vemperen version. Was hoping not to use the body 3 type if possible.
I found a fix. I don't know what causes this issue, but here is the fix.
Start a new game, without the mods that makes Gale a woman, or any of the voice lines. Keep playing till you recruit him, then a bit further (1 combat encounter) then save your game. Install the mods, then load up your save again. Gale is now a woman. To alter his appearance you need the script extender.

Once that is installed, load up your game again. Select gale and then put this code here into the script extender Ext.Entity.Get("S_Player_Gale_ad9af97d-75da-406a-ae13-7071c563f604").CharacterCreationStats.BodyType= 1 now approach the mirror, the CONFIRM button is still not high lighted. Just select a new head or press randomize or whatever, and now you can press CONFIRM.
When reading through the comment section there was an update after people claimed that SPOILER god gale was not female in the epilogue. After the last version there were comments that regular gale was not female in the epiloge. Mod creator was so kind to promise fixing after patch 7 release but there was never a new update so you might have male gale in the epilogue other than that you will be fine.
On another note: I realized (and others did in the comment section too) that using the "normal" mod make weapons disappear in the back of some characters and also having characters RESIZE when standing still. When using the "vemp head" mod both issues do not appear but the other improvements from the "normal" version are missing - there is no tattoo and likely there will be some male gales in the epilogue. Since updates here are long gone - can some person fix this mod and upload as a seperate mod with giving credit? I imagine this kind of mod is now much easier to achieve especially when having this old mod as a basis. Thanks in advance, whoever you are =)
Your mod is sooooooooooooo awesome I bow at your feet, my prince, my queen, my prophet. I hated male Gale sooooooooooo much, especially after he tried to creep on my during the "let's go look at the stars" interlude.
For some strange reason, this mod changes the human and half-elf male body 2 if you have a custom character as your char, it is shorter than the female, looks like a very short man, which is weird.
I just noticed something like this. for my dark urge half-elf male body 2 I just made, the weapon on the back is going through the body instead of being properly on the back and it almost looks like in the cutscenes it is slightly off where it should be. For example, when grabbing for Gale's hand and pulling out of the portal, it looks like the hands aren't actually clasping each other.
Anybody experiencing sunken head, gale turns back male, and hair is floating? Everything was fine until i talked to withers and leveled up myself, shadowheart and laezel, now there is no getting gale back to any of the previous states as it is a part of every save now
A good workaround I found out is install the Appearance Edit mod and start a new game. Play until you recruit Gale as a companion. Then enter character creation as Gale and create a whole new custom character and rename that custom character as Gale. After submitting the new custom character, the game should go back to where you left off in-game and original Gale should be replaced as the new custom character you created.
This can be done with every companion as long as you have Appearance Edit mod installed.
does this still result in odd body appearances in certain scenes (like the astaria mod)? e.g. does the body type resort back to human male for or is oddly stretched / elongated in certain scenes?

Thank You!! Is the choice of Guardian relevant using this method??

I have to do the Resculpt> Magic Mirror workaround to get this to work and theres no way i see to keep this original head.

Anyone has the same issue??
