Sorry guys, I totally forgot about this mod. Yeah, installation is not that simple. I don't think anything, aside from making the morphs with only the default resources, can be done about that. But it would take a lot of work to redid the morphs and possibly support both versions, and since the mod's not that essential (we already have DAR and countless others, after all), I don't think it's gonna happen.
But this is a simple mod. All it alters are heads, and the required mods don't do anything aside from adding new artistic resources (models, textures) either. What I'm trying to say with that is you can't break the game with it even if you tried. If you follow a few simple steps, you are guaranteed to get it to work eventually. Anyway, here's what I suggest:
- Before using the mod, install all of the required addons. - If, after you've installed them, the faces still don't show up properly, make sure you don't have a conflict somewhere by using a process of elimination. After you've removed all mods except for this mod and the mods it requires to work, start putting them back one by one, until you discover the culprit. - If even that doesn't solve your problems, the problem could lie in one of the required mods. I know, for example, that Beautiful People Hair REN mod has a problem with white hair. You can fix that by removing LOD23 folders from within the mod. If a mod (like DrDJs Bandit Emporium ) requires you to install a DAZIP, you can try extracting its contents with any ZIP editor (7zip, Winrar). Inside the extracted folder, there will be several ERF files. Those that only have 32bytes are empty and can be safely ignored. Any larger ones need to be moved to Revamped Head Morphs folder in your override (the ERF files can be renamed to whatever you wish). You can also extract the ERF's file's contents if you have the toolset installed. I believe pyGFF (search Google for it) also works. That way you can only use the files you actually need. - If you're still having problems after having done all that, report it here.
So I happen to still have all of the requirements for this mod, saved in an external drive from the last time I set up my DAO mod list. That said, there are issues even with all of them. Frandlin Ivo in the Dwarven Noble intro, for example, has no hair or beard. Basically the entire back of his head is missing, he's not just bald.
The unnamed consort that Bhelen had in his room? She has her hair, it's modeled quite nicely, but something's really messed up with the lighting. It's basically super bright white to the point that it's putting off light, rather than absorbing it. (Also nevermind, I think her name was Rica)
All you can really do if you're having problems, is go into the mods files and delete the particular morph that's broken. Thankfully DAO's files are named with the character names, so FrandlinIvo.mor or something along those lines. Just... proceed with caution on this one. It's a nice mod, but there are bugs lurking in it.
Question about the Flemeth mod. Is it like a two tier thing where she looks average at the beginning of the game and later will look like her DA2 morph, or is she supposed to look like her DA2 morph when Morrigan first introduces her?
The first two morphs for human males are broken. The eyes are white and disturbing on the first one (and on the first dwarven male as well), and the second one is missing its hair, and the back of its head.
I have tried installing all of the required mods individually, and I have taken all of the required mods, extracted all of their files into a new folder, and that did not work either. I have tried sticking the ERF's into the override folder, and extracting the ERF's with the toolset, and that did not work either. I have uninstalled all other mods and this still doesn't work.
This is rather annoying, does anyone have a solution.
Sorry to res, but in case you never figured this out and if anyone has a similar issue, the second morph's hair is from a hair mod that had a style titled Nero that is no longer on the nexus. Just switch to a different hairstyle if using that preset. The disturbing, milky eyes are a result of not having DAR installed.
I too, see Eleanor Cousland's Eyes opaquely white. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling Dracomies Textures, but to no avail. Perhaps someone knows what's wrong?
While ignoring Eleanor Eyes is a uite simple task, specially since I downloaded this mod mostly because of her, I must say Irving is quite creepy with white eyes.
Edit: Found a solution. Apparently, the textures missing were from http://dragonage.nexusmods.com/mods/687/? Eye textures by cris. Eleanor and Irving now have their pretty little eyes just fine. Wanted to post here in case anyone faces a similar issue.
I checked this out, and the eyes from the mod you listed (I don't even have it installed) are not used on these faces. The eyes I used are from DAR. You have to move ERF files (or just move the whole folder) from "DAR for Dragon Age Toolset" into your override to get it to work.
The readme is unclear on that. I stated that it requires "Additional textures for DAR" file, which is not the case. It instead just requires the folder I mentioned above. I'll get it fixed.
Really. That reply earned you one more endorse. Thanks a lot! I Downloaded every texture I could see to fix that and the solution was already on my PC. Now I just had to reinstall DA and I got the problem again, I considering crying a little bit, but you, good sir [or lady, considering Alex can be both], made my life a whole lot better.
Hello and thank you for your amazing work. Unfortunately, we can no longer find Tucked Hair. Would there be a way to do otherwise? thank you . thank you very much for your work

I hope that helps somewhat.
