About this mod
Replaces Messmer's Helm (Altered) with resized Malenia's Helm, which will now use player hair instead of the default red locks attached to it.

I don't really know if there's one like this here already, as I haven't found it after a few searches, so I'm going ahead and uploading it. I'm probably just blind as always.
What it does:
This mod swaps Messmer's Helm (Altered) to a rescaled version of Malenia's Winged Helm. Said model was resized (1/10th wider) to stop hair from clipping through it, and now can accommodate all (I think) hairstyles with little to no clipping.
This swap is a byproduct of my Custom Messmer's Set.
Why aren't I simply replacing Malenia's Winged Helm? Because then you'd have to finagle through regulation.bin to flip a few boxes that'd allow it to display player's hair. This is the hassle-free version of that, since IMO, Messmer's Helmet is ugly as sin in the first place, so replacing it isn't that big of a deal in my eyes.
Installation:
- Download and setup Mod Engine 2 (direct link to the .zip).
- Drop the contents of my mod into the 'mod' folder in your game's directory.
- Launch the game through modengine2_launcher.exe.
If you wish to replace something else that wouldn't require you to dig into regulation.bin, then you can rename these files to "hd_m_2220.partsbnd.dcx" and "hd_m_2220_l.partsbnd.dcx" respectively, and have this model alter the Juvenile Scholar Cap instead. It has the same hair rules as Messmer's Helm.
