📋 About This Mod

<--  Update 2. 0. 1 -->

Horn accessories now have physics!

To update, REMOVE the horns from your character (use the Mirror and choose "No horns" option in horns tab) and DELETE the mod from mods folder manually. Then it will be safe to update.

<-- What is this mod? -->

A new horns for character creation with custom textures and meshes. For all the races and body types except the Dragonborns.

This mod also adds jewelry for Horns 03  and Horns 04 as dyeable headgear. It can be found inside the pouch in the Tutorial chest, Druid Den's trader, Volo, Danthelon in Whyrm Crossing and Figaro in Baldur's Gates.

This mod does not replace any of the vanilla horns, it just adds more options.
