Astarion Character Creation Camera Fix

This mod, and a collection of Aether's other mods are currently being maintained by Magnetuning (hi) and Aimryax! You can find a list of mods we're maintaining, and their Patch 8 update status here.

This mod is works with Patch 8!

DESCRIPTION

Fixes Astarion's Character Creation cameras if you have a mod which edits his Origins.lsx node, such as Appearance Edit Enhanced's optional file, as well as an upcoming mod by Magnetuning.

The way that cameras are set up for character creation, is by assigning each subrace three different camera positions inside the CharacterCreationPresets.lsx file. Astarion's subrace (Undead High Elf) is not accounted for in the file, which means none of the usual camera positions are set up for him by default. To get around this issue, Larian decided to include the two Elf BT2 camera overrides inside his Origins.lsx node.

Some Origins.lsx mods (sometimes intentionally) do not include these camera overrides in Astarion's node, leading to his camera getting broken in character creation. This mod fixes that by adding his subrace in the CharacterCreationPresets.lsx file. Additionally, this mod supports every body type, so if a mod changes Astarion's, the cameras will automatically account for it.

Authors: Feel free to list this fix as a soft requirement on your mod pages.

Compatible with everything. Load order does not matter.

KNOWN ISSUES

This method for fixing the camera incidentally also adds his subrace to the Character Creation menu. This won't cause any issues, however, you will see a duplicate of High Elf in the subrace menu. I'm looking into a fix for this.
