📋 About This Mod
Patches vanilla skintones to add parameters allowing tiefling claws to become metallic
In my endless playing around with skin color parameters, I discovered it was possible to make tiefling claws metallic.
Instead of creating new skintones with that newfound knowledge, I set out to create a mod to make it possible with the vanilla skintones.
There are four files to choose from:
-Tiefling only. Changes only the skintones available for tieflings (Azure, Chili, Orchid, Pink, Purple, Smoke, Storm, Sulfur, Red and Violet)
- Tiefling only ALT. Changes only the skintones available for tieflings WITHOUT making the claws black (Azure, Chili, Orchid, Pink, Purple, Smoke, Storm, Sulfur, Red and Violet)
-All which includes all vanilla skintones (includes Elf, Githyanki, Half-orcs, Human, Tiefling, Underdark and Other skin color categories).
-All Alt which includes all vanilla skintones WITHOUT making the claws black (includes Elf, Githyanki, Half-orcs, Human, Tiefling, Underdark and Other skin color categories).
This means that NPCs will be affected unless they use a unique skintone.
It is possible to make patches for custom skintones, patches will be either hosted on the mod author's page or on this page if I have permission from the mod author.
What this mod changes visually :
-The horn base is now also metallic
-The claws of the hands and feet are now metallic
-The claws will now appear black by default
-Alternative version of the files removes the default black
-This will affect NPCs that don't have a unique skintone
How to change the color of the claws:
Use the horn color to change the color of the claws
Custom horn colors work on this mod
Unique Tav Compatible
Works with AEE (Appearance Edit Enhanced)
Mods like Commanderstrawberry's Unique Tav Body - Harpy feet will be affected by this patch see images for example
To install:
ONLY CHOOSE ONE FILE for vanilla skintones
The vanilla file can go anywhere in your load order, but I recommend putting it towards the bottom of your load order.
Files for custom skintones have to go below the original skintones at the bottom of your load order
To uninstall:
Simply remove from your load order. This mod is safe to remove mid-playthrough and safe to switch mid-playthrough
Known quirks of this mod:
-The metallic claws linger when selecting a skintone that isn't patched during character creation. This is a visual bug, proceeding to the game will reset the visuals. You can reset the visuals by changing classes.
