📋 About This Mod
My first language is not English so if there is anything confuse you pls let me know!!
This is not my mod, I simply fix problem happens to CovenElf's Tattoo and Makeup collection when patch 5 comes up (seems like there is a conflict between it and UT when I test them in different mod load orders) by renaming the original mod file and the directory.
This mod aims to help people having issues with CovenElf's collection after patch 5, specifically, finding it conflicts with UT, when UT shows, Covenelf's collection fails. Changing load orders in BG3 MM many times and these two just cannot work together.
Everything BELONGS to CovenElf
See the original mod here
CovenElf's Tattoo and Makeup Collection (v1. 2 Update)
Updated Unique tav mod is required with Trip's old shader.Make sure you have already installed them before everything!!
If you have already downloaded CovenElf's collection, you do not need to download my mod.
- []1,Check the original CovenElf's mod file, you will find 2 files in such a directory:
and names of the files are:
Skin_Atlas_Head_SHR_Makeup_A_MSK2
Skin_Atlas_Head_SHR_Tattoo_A_MSK1
If your have GIMP you can open these 2 files and then you will understand my simple solution.
- []2 Find somewhere you like and create new folders to build a directory like this:
Skin_Atlas_Head_SHR_Makeup_A_MSK
Skin_Atlas_Head_SHR_Tattoo_A_MSK
or you can just delete that 2 and 1 in the names:)
-
[]3 Copy the Generated folder to your SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\Data folder
[
]4 Go back to your jorney and enjoy CovenElf's artwork.
If you are too tired to do all of these or you have deleted CovenElf's colletion just download my file and extract it then move the Generated folder in your Baldurs Gate 3\Data, it contains CovenElfs work and I've renamed it to make it functional again.
This mod fixes a compatibility issue where CovenElf's tattoos break after Patch 5 with Unique Tav, restoring both face and body tattoos. It's a simple solution for players who want to keep CovenElf's artwork without sacrificing either tattoo type.
