📋 About This Mod
Adds different eye directions to all vanilla expressions in photo mode for all humanoids
A part of the July BG3 Modathon
What is this mod?
This mod adds eye directions to the vanilla expressions in photo mode and adds 3 unused expressions, also with eye directions. DISCLAIMER: Because I have only used the armature of a certain male Tav head (for reasons being that it was the simplest approach), expressions may look slightly different on non-male heads including the other origin characters. I will not be adding expressions specifically using their own animations, this mod took me long enough to do and I'm not doing this again.
Compatability
This mod uses HUM_M_Head_A_Base for expressions and other mods using this will most likely not be compatible unless you use the Compatibility Pose Patch or QSAT.
