📋 About This Mod

Update2: fixed some clipping during the Florianne dance, added the antaam-saar variant, eliminated need for formal wear replacer mods for the black dresses.

Vanilla mashup dress for human female, intending to create a formal ballgown silhouette for all your Winter Palace needs. Note that we will not be porting this to any other races, as it uses a dress skeleton that only HF has, and we have no idea how we'd reweight it even if we did refit it. Apologies, it's just beyond our skillset atm. Anyone who wants to is welcome to try, fbprojects are included, just toss us a credit/link back.

Three main versions:

-Black, with patterned tint overdress, on the Arishok/Shokra-Taar and Formal Wear

-Black, with solid tint overdress, on the Antaam-Saar and Formal Wear

-White and silver untintable wedding dress on the Trespasser wedding dress

Both black versions come with two variants: untintable silver accents and tintable accents that use the cloth2 channel.

Overall, I think the patterned tints look much nicer, but they do cause an issue with the base formal wear's red tint that makes them come out extremely shiny and weird, so I included the solid tint versions for those that don't want to use a formal wear recolor (or can't/don't want to replace the Arishok armor). If you do use the patterned version, I suggest grabbing a recolor from here.

If you use it, please submit your pictures! I'd love to see our work in the wild.

Sunlit Seas is a two-woman modding team that has primarily worked on FFXIV mods, and returned to their decade-long obsession with Dragon Age after Veilguard. We're both really new to DA:I/Frosty modding, but we're hoping to provide vanilla mashups and hair ports for the community. If you enjoy our work, please consider buying one or both of us a coffee! for anything else, we're contactable here on the nexus, as well as on tumblr/bsky.

fbproject/texture files included because we believe that modding should be collaborative. if you want to edit anything -- textures, the mesh, port to other genders/races, take it apart to learn how it works -- do it! no permission needed. if you upload to the nexus, please credit us, but otherwise go wild.
