📋 About This Mod
I wanted glasses that looked a little different from Trips', and I didn't feel like learning how to do them as a piercing, so here we are.
Dyeable. Should fit all races/body types. Goes in the headwear slot. Spawns in Tutorial Chest.
If you want to change the color of the lenses, you can download the KCE_ColoredLenses file and use one of the options in there (unzip, open the folder for the color you want, then copy the "Generated" folder into Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\Data ).
If you have a program that can edit . DDS files (such as paint.net or Photoshop) then you can edit it however you want. You can also use Photopea if you don't want to download any new programs. This BG3 wiki page has more info on editing . DDS files.
The mesh & texture for the "Clerical Eyeglasses" frames was edited from "Glasses 09" by Dokono Kinokoda, and the lenses are edited from in-game assets.
I put this mod together for my half-tief Changeling Cleric of Mystra, Ione. I don't really care about balance & just give my items whatever stats I think are fitting for the character I made them for.
The rectangular "Reading Glasses" were made for Ione's father, Nephilius. I thought that having "True Sight" might be thematically appropriate for a man who knowingly married a Changeling. Celes & DrKekyll were kind enough to grant me permission to use/modify the "True Sight" from 5E Spells.
If you want to change what slot they use/what buffs they have/which vendors sell them then download the file and read my pinned comment.
Wider noses will clip a little bit with the glasses, and due to the various shapes of the Dragonborn crests they may completely hide the bridge of the frames. There's not really anything I can do about it.
Also, they clip significantly on two of the fem Changeling heads, and are almost entirely clipped through on one of the masc Changeling heads; this is because Trips' Changelings use Githyanki as a parent race, but their faces are shaped quite differently from Githyanki. I'm still working on doing another fitting specifically for Changelings.
