Game Triss is no Lore Triss so I decided to change it as much as I could.
I tried to follow her descriptions with limitations of my preferences and skills. Things I changed so far:
- new face texture. Less freckles, less makeup, less wrinkles. Overall younger and healthier skin. Bruised and bloody textures included.
3 versions:
book-inspired, blue eyeliner and peach lips, no freckles;
book-inspired, same as above, but with less of a makeup;
game-inspired, vanilla makeup and freckles;
- deep blue eyes, unique for Triss;
- new head mesh, more round face with smaller jaw;
With LODs or LOD-less depending on your preferences, read the bugs section below.
- hair color. Silly clown red she has as a default is just ridiculous. Now it's a reddish brown/auburn as I see it. I also really wanted it not to look too ginger.
Further development of released things depends on the feedback. Also please let me know of bugs and incompatibilities, as well if you like my mod!
And show me how Triss looks in your game now! Don't be shy since I'd won if being shy was sort of a contest :B
Also, If you want to discuss something with me, better do it via DM since I sometimes get too anxious to read comments in the net eeeeeh :/
Installation
If it's your first try -- choose the main file. If you don't like anything about the mod, take a look at the optionals. Collect any parts that you want and either put them on top of the main file, or merge later, or leave as is.
Updates
1.01
- added all-in-one Game version, added head mesh with lods. Please merge it with any of main versions giving it a higher prority if you need them lods.
1.02
Small update before I'm leaving to the countryside so I don't leave you guys waiting :B
- updated standalone hair files, small changes of color + added DLC hairstyle that wasn't included previously; there's an option of DLC hair with no braids, for anyone else who disliked them like I did.
- updated eye textures. It's now less blurry -- it was the main goal -- and has two variants of colors to choose from -- bright blue or dark blue.
!IMPORTANT!
1.03
Phew. I'm getting close to finish the work on this part of a mod and focus on maintaining a new version with hair and outfits.
- face textures tweaked a little, I edited the hairline and touched small details here and there. Added new 'BOOK' version with blue eyeliner and subtle lip gloss.
- eye textures updated and are standalone now.
- old all-in-one versions 1.00 are now somewhat obsolete. Because of the huge amount of options and mod limit being fixed recently, I see no more interest in packing those myself.
Just collect stuff one by one or use a prepacked main file with my favorite options.
Future plans
- Default & masquerade outfits redesign with not as much of soon-too-be-damaged skin shown.
- Loose hair? For now I'm looking onto Yen's style but it has weird textures so ugh. Maybe. Definitely yes if I figure out how to tweak transparency settings (HELP ME AAAA).
- Update all-in-one versions if anyone's interested.
Known issues & glitches & problems etc.
- The goddamn n3cK SeAm??//?/
- Face normalmap would look too detailed if you don't use Ellise's tweak for skin overlay. But it's a matter of taste.
- Melt bug:
Lip Movement and HiRes Shadows on NPCs in gameplay - recommended;
Alternatively, It can be fixed by editing your user.settings
