📋 About This Mod

Multiple hair/face options for Dakota Smith (the Fixer in the Badlands).  Please see image gallery for details.  Descriptions in the downloads section.

Installation:

  • []PICK ONE HAIR OPTION (mandatory, default hair may melt).

    []PICK ONE CLOTHES OPTION (if desired)

    []PICK ONE FACE OPTION (if desired)

    • []Tattoo/Cyberware options available, please see descriptions in download page.
      • []Vortex Compatible (post Patch 1. 2)

        []Otherwise: place desired .archive files into the folder: Cyberpunk 2077\archive\pc\mod

        • []For simplicity in mod page organization, all clothes/face/hair style colors are archived together!!!

          []So if using Vortex, be sure to delete the unwanted options from your "MOD" directory.

          • []Please list any requests in "Requests" under the "Bugs" tab.

            []Due to the nature of my schedule, I don't really accept commissions, as I can't guarantee a reliable turnaround.

            []But I appreciate constructive feedback on my mod pages. I hope you enjoy my work!

          • []And while I never expect it, tips either through Nexus or via Ko-fi are always humbling and greatly appreciated!

          Limitations/Caveats:

          • []For some reason, any face or clothes changes may break the original hair model.

            []As such, the original hair model will be the "Original Brunette" Option

            []Any NPCs reliant on Dakota's hair may have melting hair or missing hair issues.  Please report this, and I can try to generate a patch.

            []Dakota's hair is not physics compatible, which will limit hair options.

            []In order to make clothes compatible without clipping, I have deleted the feet from Dakota's body model.

            []I have provided a patch in the optional files to re-install Dakota's full foot mesh, if desired for skimpy clothes and nudes.

            []Some clothes will always remain on the model, even if using AMM.  I will do my best to work within these limits.

            My Other Mods:

            []All Rhino All the Time
